Fess up. Which one of you madmen built a Taco Bell at home?

Wow I'm actually curious about that discussion. At what point does "it's my money and I want to spend it this way" become a problem? Like spending thousands on a gaming room might elicit disapproval from your spouse but it's entirely different from spending thousands on like Nazi memorabilia or something.
I'm of a few minds
A) She is right that she lives there and gets a say of what goes on in their house
B) He lives there too and should also get a say
C) She notes that it's largely going into a room that's "his" and she doesn't interact with. Why is it a problem?
D) Seems like big purchases like that should be discussed between them, even if it is their own money
F) Constantly mocking him for his feelings about Taco Bell makes her look worse. It's not like he's doing this with CFA stuff.

You probably shouldn't make big changes to your living space without discussing it with your spouse first, but it was his money and and his office, so worst case scenario she can just avoid the house tours going to the office if she finds it so tacky.
The only reason I didn't think it's Dan Ryckert is that I think his wife wouldn't have been surprised by the development, or even objected all that strongly to it.
Did you catch his 12 hour nightmare stream? It was so... Ryckert.
Reminds me of the one recently about the guy who got rid of their bed while his wife/girlfriend was out so he could set up a space for VR.
Still entertaining though.
It's his "room" let him do whatever he wants with it.
Stop fussing about someone from doing something they like/enjoy.
It's fine to say you don't get something or think it's dumb, but you can still say "Hey, if you like it...I'm glad you're happy."
(Would be my response)

This is my take on the issue.
There's the obvious discussion of "they both live there and should both discuss furnishings and purchasing decisions" but if it's not placed in a common area, I think it's fair for him to decorate "his" space how he likes. But he can't expect her to like it, too. She's entitled to her opinion.
also 11 years younger than Dan. Also, calling Taco Bell mediocre for fast food. that's divorce papers if it were me.
No doubts in my mind, just misreported age to throw us off the scent.
his wife married him in a taco bell i feel like she would be cool with this.
I actually thought he went out and bought all the appliances and cookware needed for a Taco Bell and had recipes as well as decor. But yeah, I see where the wife is coming from, but also the dude who did it. Either way, I now want taco bell but none anywhere near me fml
Some folks wish the problems they have with their SO is decorating their home office like a taco bell. It's not even a common space that anyone would immediately see.
Yeah, calling Taco Bell mediocre is an insult to all mediocre chains out there. It is such an insult to mediocre chains like Taco Johns and chihuahuas that even Paris Hilton is disgusted by it.
