'I didn't cook anything': Husband complains about wife's cooking smell, she maliciously complies and refuses to cook him dinner anymore

Be careful what you complain about in your household! Otherwise, you might end up having to cook your own food. When you're sharing space with someone, whether it's a family member, a partner, or a roommate you found on Craigslist, you have to divide the household tasks appropriately. Those decisions will look different for every living space, but as long as there's a well-understood compromise among all those residing in said living space, there shouldn't be very many problems.

Now, if you're someone who never cooks and if you rely on your partner to do all of that household work, you better be careful not to offend the other person because your ability to eat dinner is on the line. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit, and let's just say we have a father of the house who was less than respectful to his wife. After complaining that he wanted that food odor to go from his house, his wife complied, albeit maliciously. She ensured that this food odor would be gone by simply not cooking meals for him at all. You could imagine the shock on the father's face when he came home the next day, but that's what he deserved!
