I certainly hope that was aimed at Gord.

Not necessarily, that was just the most accurate acronym for the
moment.

I tried to put a urinal into the back bathroom closest to the garage
(but still inside the house proper, where 'people with some class'
might wander in...) and I got shot down in flames by She Who /REALLY/
MBO at the sketch stage, before the architect even had a chance to
draw the plans. (Yes, Mom. Okay, consider the idea dropped. I'll
just shut up now, Mom...)

And she did it with such passion that any further discussion on the
matter would not only be pointless, I would just be digging the hole
deeper. And when the volcano went off, it was almost at the "I
brought you into this world, I can take you out of it!" stage right
out of the gate. Whoa. I must have hit a raw nerve somewhere...

This was on a rebuild of the back bathroom that /I/ was paying for.
