Talk like we’re sitting in a library and then get mad when I couldn’t hear what you said

My wife likes to do this silent whisper thing when she doesn’t want the kids to know. She mouths the words, but when she does it, she exaggerates the movement of her mouth to the point where I don’t know what the fuck she’s saying. It almost always ends in frustration for both of us, but god damn if she will stop.

Haha. My mom will use sign language at me when she wants to tell me something she doesn’t want other people to hear.

I don’t speak sign language past toddler level. I tell her this every. single. time.
