The "WHY DOES SHE" thread!

<!> spoiler alert! <!>



because you let her.


Carry on...

Thanks Einstein

I see the problem here. The lid is down. You need to stake out your territory and demand it be respected.







Need to see a pic of the sofa to see if it looks comfy, you know, just as a "Plan B".

^^^ It's GO TIME; ..lid goes up, start stacking rolls...taking a pic of the sofa will be helpful for us that don't know doodly about why, she, and stuff ;)

I'd go buy one of them 96 roll packs too!

what, a 160-something posts isn't enough run?

Ok, toilet seats... The lid is there for a reason. Get a soft close and tell her to always close the lid. Easy flick. You do the same. All is good.

Toilet paper. If it bugs you that it's not on the dowel, put it on the dowel. If it bugs her, that it's not on the dowel, then she should deal with it. If that's too much hassle for both get one of the L-shaped holders.

I'm beginning to wonder if a whole lot of men here consume a lot of soy products.


^^^^^^
ducking

Absolutely....it's a well known PCE....triples it for some that seriously need help.

PCE...Post Count Enhancer.

Some of us are just an average 10....binary or hex ;)?

It's time to leave a "floater" man....because

I
Am
Sofa
King

....well....that's what I'd DOO ;)

Remove seat--save for said company.

Reviving old, but noteworthy, thread.

2 months ago I loaned the GF 2 4ft long bar clamps so she could glue a broken chair seat. This week I needed them to build some speaker cabinets. Naturally, she has not used them yet, but agrees to leave them where I can find them while she is at work. So I drive the gas guzzling Pig 60 miles round trip to find: 1 bar clamp.

She doesn't answer her phone or text until 6 hours later and swears that I only gave her the one clamp, but refuses to go look in her car, because it's too cold (36F).

Who loans a single clamp when you have a pair?

Who has a GF that difficult to use for productive purposes?

remember while beauty is often ephemeral, stupid is forever.

:)

^^^Sorry - but have to agree^^^ Not piling on but what woman does not have her phone surgically attached and doesn't respond to texts / calls?

Super funny thread!

Why does she: Continue to buy new shoes, then keep telling me to take my old clothes which I still wear to the donations bin

I never realized all women tell you to turn after the turn!, I almost said the F-word in front of my kids the last time she did that...

I had my mom with me in my 914 many years ago, I was on a major road with a 40 MPH speed limit. As we came almost even to a side street, she said, turn here. I did. Slight 4 wheel drift and ended up with the rear end a little sideways, but I made the corner. After that, she gave me lots of notice to turn at a corner. She never said anything about the corner until I got her back home. She was sure we were going to roll over. I assured her that is impossible in a 914 without hitting a curb while sideways or a big hole.

She is actually smart, a Supervisory GS-13, just a bit forgetful at times. Her work building is metal sheathed and cell reception is minimal.

We still can't find the clamp.

Two year bump.
My wife is a nurse, and isn't supposed to have her phone while she's on the floor. She takes it anyway but turns off the ringer. The problem comes at the end of the day, she texts me "Stopping at the store, need anything?" I'll reply, she will come home without what I asked for. "I forgot to turn the ringer on, and didn't see your reply".

Bigger problem: Me:"Any mail I need to deal with?" Her:"No, you just got a card from the tax place". Later I find the envelope that says "Important tax documents enclosed" under the card. One year she misplaced a 1099, and I had to amend our return. I see she hasn't changed.

She finally found the clamp, in her utility room under a pile of dirty clothes.

This is a great thread, we should keep it going.

My latest: why does she make 6 pies for Christmas, when there is only 5 of us?

I certainly get sick of this "Everything is a crisis" thing she has going. If it's anything other than a day at the office it's meltdown time. And if I don't sympathise and have a fellow meltdown, I become the enemy. I explain that if it's THAT bad get a lawyer involved, but I get told I'm so aggressive and heavy handed.

Like my friend Henry said "I think I'll be gay in my next life, I can't stand all this constant drama."

Sorry, I used to think that as well^^^^^^ but the guy that cuts my hair is gaaaay..... and from the sounds of it just as much if not more drama with his relationship

For every 'Why does she?' thread started....there are prob two 'Why does he?' threads started somewheres. :)

Another one.

Many years ago she said she was going to wash her car and did I want the Porsche washed. I said "Yes, thanks. But be careful not to drag the hose over the car as sand sticks to the hose and scratches the paint."

The car parking area is just sand. I came out five minutes later and there she was with the wet hose dragged over the car washing the other side. With her limited attention span all she could bear to listen to was the "yes" part of the sentence. So I had big scratches all over a previously perfect paint job.

My husband would be thrilled to have the selection.

By the way: I have laughed all the way through this thread.

Man, I can't relate to this thread. When I met my future wife and found out she owned and drove a manual, I knew she was a keeper.

That's about the point where you are supposed to say "thank you mam, may I have another"

I plan everything in advance. I mean everything. Drives me up the freaking wall when things are sprung on me at the last minute.

Or, "I told you yesterday". Yeah, but you left out the part where it resulted in a hospital visit, frikken surgery, and weeks of recovery. Those little details are sort of - I wanna say - IMPORTANT.

YOU did that to YOUR Porsche.
YOUR fault !!

The correct answer , when she asked was

"Was just thinking of washing the Porsche myself, i'll wash yours too, you just have a lie down"

If only... If only I had thought of that at the time.

See, I'm not married, I had a crazy mother that tought me how to deal with em : don't.
Like don't bring em home, ever :D
quick thrills up front but It can only cost you time and money in the long run

I was OK with the pies at Christmas dinner, even when she brought over a whole leftover sweet potato pie for New Years. It was the leftover key lime, and the chocolate, and the coconut cream that she brought over the next week that did me in.

Half of them went into the trash when she wasn't around.

Well that just ain't right. ;)

Yeah, what about th world's poor people. I mean me specifically, I'd have eaten the whole lot 'til I fell off the chair and rolled around on the floor.

I gained 5 pounds over the holidays as it is. Enough is enough.

You guys had me laughing with this while its mostly true and my wife is no exception. I am the one who's a bit late to leave because I am waiting and have the computer on or checking on "stuff". She owned a stick shift car, great with directions and a great and very snappy driver. Leave the car in 9 seconds. Now, all other siht....

This got me thinking, do women act the same way in foreign countries? I am talking about more traditional countries or more male dominated places like some Asian, middle east, S America or even deep in Mexico or....?

You may find some answers here...
