Four words you don't want to hear.

[britbike1]

When your wife says "we need to talk". This is not going to be a good conversation.

 

[lihpster]

Better than "you need to listen".

 

[britbike1]

Two words you don't want to hear.

You come home and can tell your wife is mad. You ask what is wrong and she says "you know". Your stomach turns to knots and you try to remember what you've done.

 

[fordson]

Sounds like recent personal experience…….

 

[Rustyt1953]

"I'm from the government."

 

[SMSgt]

Your doctor looking at your scan and saying, "Uh-oh. Not good."

 

[IAM Rand]

I have playing stupid down to an art form. That and pretending not to hear although as I age it is less of an act.

 

[Chuck24]

"I'm from the government."

I'm here to help

 

[Peak53]

this is going to cost you.

 

[BKLooney]

Where were you tonight?

 

[lihpster]

So, let us know the answer to the burning question: Does the dog snore?

Nope. That one and the guilt game that many females like to play are the reason I wasn't married until late in life. I have zero tolerance for that malarkey.

Then you start pouring...

One word I don't want to hear: "Fine!"

 

[TX-Dennis]

It's a trap!

No matter what you say she hears what she thinks you wanted to say.

It's true. What I say and what she hears are rarely the same. Is it genetic? Anatomical? A language barrier? English is her second language, but she's better at it than most people who grew up speaking English.

 

[Ματθιας]

Just defuse the situation with sarcasm. When she speaks womanese, you reply with sarcasm. Works every time!

 

[Onomea]

Best just take the couch. Aspirin and a shower in the morning. Off to work in the AM. Things'll be better in a few days...

(Speaking of many years ago. Nowadays, in my geezerhood, things are a lot calmer...)

It's a trap!

I have an ex-g/f who is Filipina. She could kick my butt at Scrabble....

and I'm GOOD at Scrabble, LOL.

Honey, I am late…
