Many of you might remember the lowest point in my life. A month ago, after a miserable three-game Scrabble defeat, Allie (my wife in training), forced me to eat a giant spoonful of Vegemite, and then announce it on our company Yammer feed. Somehow, from that point, it ended up on the blog you’re reading now…further sealing my humiliation and defeat.
But all things change, and revenge is a dish best served cold. After an inspiring five-game winning streak on my part, this time, Allie, per the terms of our bet, had to stand in our central Chattanooga park, and perform a corny punching motion for five minutes straight — all while being watched, particularly by a group of nineteen year old boys, who struggled to contain their laughter.
P.S. Apologies for the audio quality; it was very windy.







Ha ha this is brilliant. Good choice of music too
HA! That’s what happens when you make a guy eat a WHOLE SPOON OF VEGEMITE!
Seriously, my sympathies lie with the both of you now – nice one for getting her back Jeffrey!
Oh man. Although I never tried vegemite, you so raised the bar. You had better stop betting on things or the next time you lose there will be hell to pay! lol
Haahahahah, I can’t wait to get married.
Congratulations, Jeffrey. I love the Star Trek t-shirt, but was really hoping to see Allie eat something disgusting!
I usually prefer embarrassment over eating.
love how ya were so strict on the pose and punching form lol
Ya gotta have rules. A few times, she tried to stop the 20% leg bending. Wasn’t going to have that.
*Wiping away tears of laughter*
hahaha, poor Allie. Jeffrey, remind me to never get on your bad side
Jeffrey, you are too, too generous : this was NOTHING compared to Vegemite.
Tell to your wife-in-training Allie that she’s lucky… If I were you… Ohhhh…..
I dunno – 5 minutes of embarrassment, while teenage boys stared and laughed at her? I think it was worth it.
Hahaha! Amazing!
ROFL
Something tells me you are so getting it back from Allie!
This saga looks to be epic.
I have a feeling Jeffrey opened the wrong bottle of vegemite…
LMAO!! this was hilarious. Nice revenge Jeff :p
Hahahahaha!! This made my entire day!!
This is so cruel! Allie, if you see this – I’m totally on your side!!!
You’re such a traitor, Kate.
The web industry is filled with guys – us girls have to stick together!!! <3
Plus, Vegemite isn't that bad, Jeffrey. You just ate it wrong
Of course I ate it wrong. That was the punishment.
Pfft – you’re missing out anyway, Vegemite is the food of kings
So when is the next amusing video?
Your wife is hot.
Love the choice of music. I still think the Vegemite is worse I bet you can close your eyes and still taste and smell it.
OMG! Epic!
Jeffrey, you are a Genius
This has made my day…
Gotta admit… nice revenge there! But, I doubt I could even punch the air like that for five minutes straight. I bet her arms were pretty tired by the end.
Sooo funny.. I like the Rocky Balboa music in the end. lol
Hahaha that’s awesome. I would have made her wear a karate uniform though
Ok, that was excellent all by itself, but a karate uniform while playing “You’re the best around” from The Karate Kid… that would be legendary!
Next time instead of adding the music during editing, bring a boom box!

@Andy – That’s so funny, because Allie and I joked about bringing a boom box for the next punishment.
And “You’re the Best Around” is the best song ever. It used to pump me up as a kid, when I’d run around punching pillows in the house.
Allie looked like she was going to cry in the beginning of that!
A little betting never hurt anyone though. I’d rather be embarrassed like that than gag on Vegemite. I think she got the better end of this.
Although I agree that is absolutely amazing for some people, I don’t see it as enough. I head out to the beach once a week and do that for about 3 minutes before i start my beach jog. I got a few others to join me sometimes. Good exercise.
