I have bought waaaaay more stupid shit than my wife, but she does have an affinity for decorating for all the major holidays, which confounds me. Whatever, I ain't the boss of her.

I'll take the good with the bad. As an apparent side result, living in a ski town has gotten immensely better now that it is ok for the ladies to just wear their long underwear around in public. Apparently yoga pants = ski underwear. Wear them to the bar, around the grocery store, pumping gas, etc. It truly is a golden age we are living in.

My wife doesn't really buy that much stupid stuff (I'm the more likely offender, particularly in relation to outdoor gear). What she does is get depressed about the state of the world and then give money to charity in response. Now, there are way worse things and I'd rather just give $500 away to some hopefully worthy cause than have a Dotera essential oil diffuser, but still. This was a single income, new child era for us, so our finances weren't at their most flexible.
But it was - as mentioned - a new child era, so I wasn't saying shit.

I'm pretty sure my wife thinks she can single-handedly prop up the Economy through the purchase of $65-80 votive candle holders.

St. Iggy would be a good addition.

At least 50 of those. To be fair, it's a pretty easy gift default.Move upside and let the man go through...

I see everything mentioned so far and raise you this:
yes, a side table made of fuckin' log ends (more like fence posts)
JHC, it's not even worthy of a school shop project
The skirt in the original post is actually functional, lots of ski club moms and such wear them, some look very good. As for yoga pants there's a reason Chip was asked to leave daily operations of Lululemon to someone else. Telling certain women he didn't design pants for them and wouldn't make XL and up doesn't go over well, unfortunately.what's orange and looks good on hippies?

If I had a dollar for every time capitalism was blamed for problems caused by the government I'd be a rich fat film maker in a baseball hat.

Right? I'd be dead in hours if I said something like that.
This morning Ms B informed me that her Amazon CC had yet another fraudulent charges and had been canceled. Third time this year. I joked that it may be the only way for her to curb her Amazon problem (we're at the point where I worry if there isn't a box on the porch every day). All I got in response were raised eyebrows and later a picture of an Amazon cart with a new Roomba and another robot that mops the floor along with a message stating that if I wasn't going to sweep and mop I should just STFU.

Amazon started using USPS by us. Which means their shipping is more like 3-4 days and they deliver the packages to the mailbox which is .5 miles away at the start of the private road. This is somehow extremely inconvenient and now my wife went from 2-3 packages a day to almost 0. It’s great.

She's definitely that.
She's also a person who buys a shark-shaped cat bed cause it's really cute. We already have 4 cat beds in the house and the cats only use one since they sleep on our bed. And the shark-bed scares them. Great conversation starter when we have people over though...
Last year she bought a couple of foam pool noodles on Amazon to cut and stick in her boots (something about helping them keep their shape in storage). $1.98 and free shipping, why not? Expect the fuckers came in 2 separate packages... from China. The Home Depot down the street may have been a bit more reasonable an option but she thinks it's not worth her time to go there.
I need to bribe the Amazon delivery guys so they hold her packages back then! Same day delivery is now available for a lot of stuff in SLC and I'm worried nothing will slow her down if she can just buy something and have it show up a few hours later. It could get dangerous for me, the delivery peeps tend to stack packages between the door and the storm door so they're not visible from the street and one day I'm going to get lanched when I open the door. Chances are she won't find me until she gets to bringing the lower layers of packages inside the house!
We're already at the point where I have to break down and partially cut all the boxes or they overflow the recycling bin within a couple of days of it being picked up.
Same here. If there's no package I assume somebody stole it, if there's only I wonder if everything is alright.
My actual job is to take packages in the house. Nothing is ever for me so I don't bother checking the label, I just update her on the number.
