NorthernStar   11 #37 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) Presuming all men are like mine, without a woman they would all be running around naked, starving to death and would never be able to find ANYTHING even though they'd swear they looked 'everywhere'.  Oh you flatter yourself, we have automatic washing machines, microwave ovens and ready meals and the only reason us blokes can't find anything is because women always have to put stuff away instead of leaving stuff alone.  .......and just how many men have you got anyway?

You just look OVER everything instead of getting stuck in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

rainbow2411 Â Â 11 #40 Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) Oh you flatter yourself, we have automatic washing machines, My OH doesn't know how to work the washing machine and I dread to think about the amount of powder and softener he would put in microwave ovens and ready meals, my OH has never quite got to grips with the differences between the conventional and combination buttons and the only reason us blokes can't find anything is because women always have to put stuff away instead of leaving stuff alone.I have tried the leave it to him method, until the pile of clothes gets so high it falls and he then rummages on the floor rather than pick the things up and put them in his wardrobe Most men are useless in the home, they would live on anything they could fry,warm up or order from a take away and lets not even think about cleaning the house.

rainbow2411 Â Â 11 #44 Posted September 7, 2011 Oh he knows, that I know, that he knows how to work these things really and if you knew me you would know that he pays in other ways for his laziness, the question is does he know this? :confused: I think I understand what I am posting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

rainbow2411 Â Â 11 #48 Posted September 7, 2011 In 1969 when I was in Jessops having our first baby, a friend called in to see if he was ok, she said that every cup and mug in the house was dirty and in the sin. Despite all my best efforts in the intervening years nothing has changed, he would still never even think about washing up if he was on his own Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
