All I can say it just justifies the means to chocolate in my life...if there wasn't chocolate then I would waste away to nothing. :D edit....and I'm not commenting on the fact that Erick has been sexist as it is bloody true us WOMEN do all the bloody work ;) Edited by Snappy, Oct 24 2008, 02:30:15 PM.

Found the mens one in a womens mag Moaning favourite shirt isnt ironed while standing by ironing board 260, Making beds messy with nightime flailing 290, walking mud over newly scrubbed floors 840, dropping crumbs to be vacumed 370, digging up favourite plant you are convinced is a weed 630, watching wife mow lawn from sun lounger & asking her for another beer 840, Paying kids to wash car & argueing it isnt done properly 483, wondering who hangs the washing out ,brings it in ,irons it ,and puts it all away ,so that you can casually drop it on the floor 504. :crazy: :crazy: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: |

No comment, but you should see the smile on my face.... :lol: But she didn't thank me for hanging the washing out, she normally does :dunno: Maybe she didnt notice ? I'll just nip outside and see if she brought it back in last night ... No, it is all still out there... she may not have realised that I hung it out. Now what do I do ? If I bring it in, she may never realise that I did it ... But if I leave it, she will see it at some stage, and thank me for hanging it out.. Logical answer is to leave it.... Everyone agree ? |

Yes ? OK, but to save a few dollars, we can chat at home, and she can make me a coffee when she gets in. Hope she hurries up, though. I am getting thirsty ;) PS: Sometimes I am not totally serious... :ecstatic: I am either having a laugh or I am suicidal :whistle: |

Why is it that you men think you need a medal for doing some housework? Terry will often say: I've hung the washing for you I've hoovered for you I've emptied the dishwasher for you I've cleaned the bathroom for you WHY THE FARK IS IT FOR ME?!!!!!!!!!!!!! :watchit: Am I the only one who has washing, the one who leaves dog hairs on the carpet, the only one who eats off plates, the one who pees all over the toilet eat? NO :watchit: So why is it always 'for you' like he's doing me a great favour? :she: |

Because it is so hard and complex to do. We men are not as clever as most women, and therefore need to be ....... Nah, I think i'll stop while i'm still alive ..... :hide: |

pmsl @ anne - I have the same arguement when mal does owt anne :yes: when he grunts cos i dont say thanks when he does the ironing, i point out to him that he doesnt come home and thank me for doing any housework, so why should he get any thanks?? he tends to go off and sulk at that point :lol: another thing that annoys me (oooh, ya got me going now erick!!) is that he expects me to do everything even though i work too, and do all the running about after the kids; but if i ask him to do something with my car you ought to hear the moaning !!! I have to admit, id rather do it all myself cos that way it all gets done properly :yes: :D |
