Cute, but so lame. If that diary entry accurately represents the extent of the couple’s communication skills, their relationship is doomed.
Yes, but there remains an underlying truth. It exaggerates for effect.
Perhaps doomed is better than muddling through till she pops a cork over things that only exist in her head. Just last week there was a shocking breakup between Bibi and Podli who’d lived together for 115 years (they are giant tortoises). Bibi started attacking Podli and bit a hunk out of his shell, so the zoo keepers had to give them seperate enclosures. I imagine Bibi got fed up with Podli and found him uncommunicative and resistant to change, or perhaps it was some sort of midlife crisis. Still, it was a good run, and compared to a Kardashian marriage it lasted longer than the heat death of the universe.
Congratulations, Danae: you missed the point. Entirely and completely. Fetch me some spackle and I’ll fix that hole in the wall behind your head.
It’s a joke, ladies and gentleman, it’s just a joke.
Thank you. That’s how I took it.
However. Tactful, to-the-point communication seldom goes amiss.
Excuse me, your manlinesshoods, while I will beat a swift retreat from this amusing skirmish in the eternal war of the sexes. Your domestic affairs must be vastly more colorful and entertaining than mine.
Not doomed. This is not uncommon. Everybody loves Raymond was based on it.
I saw that somewhere else just the other day. It’s a classic.
Women would rest a lot easier if they realized that most men are just as simple as we seem.
On the subject of the difference in what men and what women think is important, is calling out a neighbor for using your driveway as a turn-around after having nearly been flattened on previous occasions, is that a spousal silent treatment-class offense?
Challenging someone verbally (within reason) who comes on to your property without permission is still legal, but in this day and age of concealed carry, stand-your-ground, and people carrying grudges, maybe “hey you kids, get off of my lawn” is no longer prudent? Also, it seems that women vary between seeking a “cave man” who asserts himself and a “metro-sexual” who hides behind the drapes in the off-chance the neighbor is a nut case with an arsenal. It seems the feminist community has mixed feelings about this. Any ideas?
Correct, they wont both things simultaneously.
…they wont both things simultaneously… on demand without any indication of which because you should know without them having to say.
