Let me look. Ahh, you need to do it this way.

"I don't like that way, I want to do it this way"

Well that way does not work, you need to do it this way.

"But I don't want to do it that way."

OK, do you want it to work?

"Yes"

Then do it this way.

"I don't like that way, this way makes sense to me"

But it won't work that way.

"Well it should"

Maybe, but that doesn't change the fact that it doesn't.

"That's stupid, I'm doing it my way"

Fine, just don't ask me for help when it doesn't work.
Our wives may be sisters. In her mind, broken = doesn't operate the way I think that it should.
