CECAA850 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Why is it that despite acquiring 20 Klipsch speakers with 8 often speaking simultaneously, my wife is still talking over them? the same reason mine insists on talking during movies and then asks me to explain what she just missed by not paying attention. it's a lost cause. Sometimes we'll have friends that we haven't seen for a while over during the super bowl or when I'm watching a music video. The rule is that if you want to talk, go in the other room. Why is it that when you find something that's broken/not working around the house your house and you tell your wife she generally says "Oh yea, I noticed that 2 or 3 weeks ago"?

tigerwoodKhorns Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Sorry but I get all of most of my lady advice from Al Bundy. Quote, "Don't try to understand women. Women understand women and they all hate each other" Steve Rhodes letter to Marcy when he left her "I had a full head of hair when we met and I'm sure my nose has grown" OK, Thad, here is one for you, why doesn't the carpet match the drapes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 OK, Thad, here is one for you, why doesn't the carpet match the drapes? as long as the colors coordinate, does it really matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I had a mother for 50 years. I have a daughter of 25 years, and a wife of 29 years. Why is it I know nothing about women??? +++ Edit: Whoops, wife FOR 29 years, not OF 29 years. Did I just make your point, without you having to say a thing?

Moderators dtel Posted November 11, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 11, 2014 Why when you ask what's wrong you can not ever get the real reason, instead you have to hear the whole story which makes you wish you hadn't asked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it I know nothing about women??? Don't feel alone, add 2 more daughters to that and I still don't have a clue, but I did learn I probably don't want one.

The other acceptable answer would have been "as you get older, you get dumber, but since you are older, I wouldn't expect you to know that..."

Moderators dtel Posted November 11, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 11, 2014 Your probably correct ole wise fuzzy one. + I have learned to just ride it out with an occasional appearance that I'm paying attention, it's better all the way around this way.

Gawd YES! The whole story............... how often after 15 minutes of foundational story do they lose complete track of what they were trying to initially relate as in "what was I talking about?"

Thaddeus Smith Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Do women NOT understand that when they say they do not like drama in a relationship that they're being dramatic? they do not. any attempt to explain that logic is futile. brain does not compute.

Fjd Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 What do you say if the outfit really DOES make her butt look big? it got me in hot water the first few times until she understood my motivation: i always want her to look her best and not every piece of clothing makes that possible. so I tell her when clothes don't make her look her best, and when they do. no hurt feelings and she always walks out the door knowing that I think she looks hot. I always thought that ALL women are overweight by "definition" as I don't think I've met one yet that hasn't complained about having 5 pounds to lose.

Fjd Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Why do women prefer to throw their butt blindly toward the toilet bowl, then proceed to chew out the man because she 'fell in' when she could have taken two seconds to lower the lid herself? It's not like she just did her nails and is waiting for the paint to dry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
