Man jokes about his wife’s ‘pointless’ washing up buy, but cleaning fanatics reckon she’s a genius
WE’RE often buying things for our home that make sense to us, even if our other halves don’t quite get it.
But Aaron Southard, 33, from Kent has gone viral for his hilarious reaction to his wife’s “pointless” washing up buy – a tiny bed for a dishwashing sponge.
Aaron Southard, 33, thought this sponge bed was bonkers and shared his wife’s buy on Twitter[/caption]
Sarah, 31, a hairdresser, is “always buying random things”, so Aaron, a truck driver wasn’t too concerned.
That was until he saw the bizarre purchase and he burst out laughing, taking to Twitter to mock it.
The unique design comes complete with a plastic bed frame and two small white cushions with the sponge replicating a mattress.
Cleaning fanatics love it and are desperate to buy it, particularly since Mrs Hinch and Stacey Solomon who both have one.

Aaron shared a photo of the teeny tiny bed on Twitter alongside the caption: “Now my wife has ordered some pointless s**t before but this tops it. A bed washing up sponge holder.”
He explained: “I’m used to us getting a parcel nearly every day because she’s always ordering all kinds of stuff so thought nothing of it.
“When she took it out of the box, I just laughed, I couldn’t believe how ridiculous it was.
“The funny thing is that we are both too scared to get it dirty so neither of us has used it.”
Twitter users loved the tiny sponge bed despite Aaron calling it “pointless”[/caption]
The post has since racked up over 137,000 likes and thousands of comments from users who can’t get enough of the bizarre bed – with some admitting they have one too.
“I actually own one of these and love it,” one person wrote.
Another chimed: “Haha. To be honest it would be something I would buy.”
A third person said that Aaron’s wife wasn’t alone in her bizarre purchases, adding: “I thought it was only my wife who bought this s**t. She once bought a dog bed because it had 50% off but we didn’t have a f**king dog.”
“I want one. I don’t even wash dishes,” another user added.
Another one of Sarah’s random purchases included a giant inflatable waterpark for the couple’s garden[/caption]
Aaron says he wasn’t expecting his post to go viral and only uploaded it for a laugh.
He said: “I’m honesty gobsmacked at how popular the post has become, I went to bed early the night before as I had work the next day and woke up to thousands of notifications!”
Another one of Sarah’s random purchases included a giant inflatable waterpark for the couple’s garden, as well as an egg chair.
He added: “I came home to an aqua park in the garden last summer and also an egg chair which she said is my new gaming chair.”
