Wife wants Orange Leather Sofas ! - what should I do ?

[glasgowcyclist]

Object on safety grounds, it's a hi-vis sofa so you'll be forever banging into it.

This is a pleasant post.
CC? Considerate companion?
BTW, "NO WAY HOSE"? what does irrigation have to do with anything?

Irrigation will be needed to wash the blood away after he says NO WAY

Sounds groovy baby.

Have a conversation with her like a grown up?

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

Will there be bright blue carpet to match?

 

[steveindenmark]

Sounds good to me. Please post photos of wife

Tell her if she wants orange leather sofas, you want to be the first to pose on them in a pink lurex jockstrap.

It's times like this that I'm pleased to be single!

Reframe your thinking:

"my wife has found a pair beautiful sienna settees. They are upholstered with Italian buffalo leather, and the rich warm colour is going to add interest and depth to our admittedly rather dull living room. I can't wait to curl up beside her on one of them, watching The Handmaid's Tale in front a blazing fire when the weather inevitably cools down."

Ask if a new car is also in the offing ...

Don't we had one as a kid,actually it was not real leather but it was crap it went blackish in no time with us rough council house brats sitting on it.Nay nay missus thrice nay.

Orange is the new black.

That's just crazy talk...

but (sexist?) joshing aside, if she wants orange leather sofas, and it presumably matters for the love of your life, whilst not your favoured choice, I'd be going with her preference.

Cream carpets on the other hand I might be dropping some hints on practicality
