(I am like, What the F&ck?).... Apparently someone in my home has discovered a cool site to get up to date information & news with a lot of humor thrown in..... Too bad to... I sure enjoyed posting here, but now I will have to either go underground or find another site.... He he he they sure were funny

I think he is trying to say his family has discovered the off topic forum here and they read it now.

I have been coming here long before registering, she never gave it a second look, now I seriously feel like I have been psychologically neutered..... Next thing ya know, she will be asking me how I like the flowered drapes in my work shop... HOW DO YOU LIKE THIS THREAD HONEY??? IS IT FUNNY?? HE HE..... GO BACK TO YOUR GENERAL HOSPITAL FORUMS AND LEAVE ME BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DanielDudley]

This is just another bid for a conversation. She wants to talk. Allow her 20 minutes a day and listen.

BTW was that funny hunny ?

I once read that the average time married couples speak a day is only 10 minutes. I remind my wife sometimes: "10 minutes are up!"

Wow, that's too bad. I know it works that way around here and I'm sick of it. Yet, when we get in the car for any kind of drive over 30 minutes, I hear all the drivel.

This is the way I have heard it works:

Great minds muse over ideas.
Average minds discuss events.
Small minds talk about people.

10 minutes of people talk is enough. Move up or shut up.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind talking to the wife, it's just this is the closest thing to a man cave that I have.... a fortress of solitude when I am feeling blah and need a laugh.... every other place in the house is spoken for, and now they are coming to take my Pelican too.... Maybe, I am destined to be one of those weird old men that hang out at the snack bar in the convenience store and pretend to read the paper....

P.S. Guess the title of the thread is a little vague, it is an inside joke with me and my SO, from a Married with children episode... when Al asks Peg what she was doing? and she says Nuttin... Al quickly replies Nut & Honey Cereal???

Easy - new screen name. Post all the P.C. stuff under the current one.

And you believe this? I find it interesting that a statement such as this, which is really "about people" (their minds specifically) would self-referentially come from a person with a small mind. Why therefore give it consideration at all?

In all seriousness, I find this to be true more often than not. The ones that feel the need to gab about celebrities and/or other individuals they know are typically the ones that are not worth listening to.

Dude - this is the INTERNET! If you a looking for a quiet place (fortress of solitude, as you call it), where "what is said here, stays here," then you've got the wrong place. It's like having a man cave with 20 foot windows with no flowered drapes in the middle of times square, where everyone can look inside...

Behold, the power of the internetweb...
