Another reason husbands die young.
Tonight, our conversation;

him; ok, you want wings for dinner. what kind?

me; just regular mild ones.

him; you sure you don't want the garlic ones or the lemon or the honey?

me; no, just plain mild will be fine. I want something with a little spice but not too hot.

him; so you don't want the garlic ones?

me; no. PLAIN, MILD WINGS.

I'm sitting here with a double order...garlic parmesan and lemon pepper. I opened them up and said "hey, this isn't plain mild wings"

him; I thought you'd rather have these.

me: I'd rather call to collect on your life insurance.

1. Staggering stupidity is a serious contributing factor...
to early death in a way that'll get you a mention in the Darwin Awards. "Man Dies Of Ruptured Colon After Having Chicken Wings Rammed Up His Arse...If He'd Only Listened"...I can see the story now.

6. Maybe he thought that you
were using reverse psychology on him, and then he got all confused when you really weren't.


See, it really IS all your own fault for being straightforward when he was expecting cunning and guile to get what you really wanted.:woohoo:

8. It gets better.
A few minutes ago (even though I get wings at this place at least once a month) my husband slammed the menu down in front of me and demanded "do you see MILD wings anywhere on there?" (He just had his glasses changed 3 weeks ago.)

7. What about one who's answer for everything is
Edited on Fri Sep-16-05 07:17 PM by calico1
"I don't care."

Where do you want to go for dinner?

"I don't care."

Do you like this outfit better or the other one?

"I don't care."

Etc. He thinks answering "I don't care" to everything is being agreeable. I tell him it annoys me to death. The other day he asked me something and I answered "I don't care." He was not amused. :D

10. Why do men statistically die 8 years before their wives do?
Because they want to.
