More failures in communication.

Maybe i'm just too literal.

Wife calls,

"I'm on the way home, do me a favor and start making some rice, we're making Sushi for lunch."

K, how much rice do you want?

"It's 2 cups water to 1 cup rice, boil it 15 minutes or so"

Got it, how many cups of rice do you want?

"Add some salt if you want, just a little"

K, how much rice am I making?

"I told you, 2 cups water to 1 cup of rice"

Those are directions.

""

So you'd like me to make one cup of rice.

Tell her that 2 cups of water + 1 cup of rice = 4 cups of cooked rice, and TOTALLY BLOW HER MIND.

You are trying to make a female way of thinking logical to a man. It ain't gonna happen.

Dude, I hope she's cute!!

j/k

I understand, no matter how smart they are, they are women, and you can still have that sort of conversation.

I can relate... Wife lost her cell while shopping yesterday. She calls (at my suggestion) to have service suspended. She informs me that I need to set her up as an account manager, in order for her to suspend service. I call cell company, get her added as an account mgr and suspend the service.

Me:You're all set and service is suspended. Just call 'em back when/if you find it
Her:Why'd you suspend it?!?!? Now I can't call it (from friend's cell) when I'm in the stores trying to find it!
Me:WTF?

big +1 on what Steve said.
