I met an OSMW yesterday!

(overly sensitive military wife)

She was doing my hair and talking about how one weekend her husbands command made all the guys stay on the ship to do "routine training" but SHE KNEW IT WAS SOME KIND OF BULLSHIT PUNISHMENT. The command's FB posted an apology about not letting them go home (due to routine training!) and she apparently blasted them about them lying and keeping her husband from her. Theeeen apparently a bunch of other wives were like wtf you need to chill out and she took the "well I don't know about you hors but want my husband home all the time because I ACTUALLY LOVE HIM."

I was just sitting there like this.

Bahahahahahahahaha....

That is awesome. I would have been all awkward too. Ew. I haven't had a hair cut in a while, because I hate trying to talk to them especially if they tend to over share about their own lives.

File that under "you can't make this shit up".

I wish we could tattoo "OSMW" on their foreheads. It would be so much easier to avoid them if I could see the crazy outright.

That would be too easy. . . Then again, you can just look for their camouflage purse.  That's usually a consistent tell.

Yikes.

That's awesome.

Haha that would be so uncomfortable

Awkward...I have the opportunity to meet a lot of these types in the ER on base while I volunteer. It's a great time lol.

I'm kind of annoyed that she did a super fabulous job because now I don't have an excuse not to go back lol.

Dude. If you go back you can bring us more fantastic stories!

You know, I'm not sure I've ever come across a spouse that would fit this description...

How did you respond? I don't know what in the world I would have said with my hair literally in her hands. We had one wife post on the FB page yesterday asking if there were any places offering free meals. A few people pointed out it was Memorial Day and not Veteran's Day. She had a giant bebe melt down about how her husband deserved free food.

I was just like "uhhhhhhh wow" and left it there.
