Interpreting the female language...

I had purchased upgraded front brakes for my motorcycle to a dual disc set up. The cost was nearly $1k. My justification was that my brake pads and rotors would last longer and give me better control (previously I was replacing the brake rotor annually, brake pads twice a year, and the brakes had a very wooden feel at the lever). My ******* coworker told her that I was just pissing away money and needed little more than better brake pads.

I got the silent treatment for months. It was a quiet couple months with the occasional look that kills! The only good thing that came out of it is that she learned not to pull that silent treatment game with me.

Ten years later I'm still on those rotors and have only replaced the pads a couple times. Most importantly I've had far less "oh shoot" experiences while braking hard.


You got to draw a line. No matter how much you love them, you can't let them start telling you what to do with your motorcycles.
 
The original spot makes me suspicious as hell. The guy is deriving way too much pleasure from talking to an insurance rep at three in the morning! :rolleyes:

I think his wife is right to jump him. :D

Got to agree with you! He does seem overly enthused.:eek::D
 
Phone log

One time she decided to look at the call log in my cell phone. I had no problem with that. She suddenly comes upon one, and is sure, she finally is gonna nail me. She says "what's this? MOM?! That's not my number!!!"

I calmly took the phone from her, patted her on the head and said "that would be......my Mother".:rolleyes:

Blink blink. Confused look, "OK, well watch it, Buster!"

I still love her.
I'll never understand her.

On my phone I make a separate entry for cell phones and home phones, so I have one for Matt and his cell is labeled "Mattie" She looks at my phone and says "who is this Mattie??"

I smiled "that would be your oldest son"

One good thing I have going, my wife believes my co-workers/friends less than me:D

She's an angel and I deserve all the punishment she deals out. Of coarse I'm always wrong and I know she is always right. It helps that I'm hard of hearing and can't see to well either.

Hell no your not fat, how could you be fat at 5'4" and only weigh 100#s.
No, I'm not kidding, the mirror is a little warped and has been since we moved here from SoCal. Well maybe your memory is...did you hear the phone ring? Must be my cell, be right back.

PUT THAT DOWN ITS LOADED!!!!! Yes dear, I know I will be too, if I don't watch my mouth.

My Wife was the best shot in the family of six cops. She could take down any of the family in play fighting. She was always ready for a range trip.
Great cook and house keeper. Decided to become a cop but turned up pregnany with #6 child.
She always considered me partly deaf as my answer was "HUH", what, can you repeat again ? " You are the greatest thing in my life". "Yes Dear, you are right, and I am so sorry to have considered you were wrong".
 
Women

A world record awaits, being set. Namely, the first Man, of the human species, to understand a woman, of the human species. This record was made available when Eve chose the Snake, to befriend, in preference to Adam.

Women are delightful, irresistible, beings, highly skillful, in the ability to manipulate men. Men are totally out of their league, when playing that game. Also, women live longer than men, and generally, end up with the marbles, in life’s marble game. Some women, seem to enjoy the game better than the marbles.

There’s a lot of grousing done, by men about this matter, but the truth be known, most of them, wouldn’t have it any other way.

This record is doomed to inevitable failure. Maybe that’s the way it should be.

A wise man once said, 'Prudence, is the better part of valor'.

As usual I've said to much.
 
A thread from 2014, apparently not much has changed.

Things have changed

In December it will be 16 years (post #28). I have finally learned that some things are constant -- ON: ceiling fans in empty rooms, desk fan to dry shower curtain after blowing air for 12 hours, 1 light on in every room when we are watching TV in the living room, deck lights on because "it's pretty" .

When she gets angry, only the Lord knows what she will say. It is best I remain silent and definitely don't laugh. Ten minutes later the whole thing is forgotten, but AT THE TIME the earth was going to stop rotating.

Her hearing is flawless. "Terri, I am going to the range, stop a at Sam's Club, and stop at Frank's house. See you later." Three hours later she is in a a boiling rage because I left my cell phone at home, am now back home now, but I didn't tell her I was leaving. She is in the front of the house, I'm 3 rooms back at the rear of the house and whisper in my cell phone to Frank, "She didn't know I was going to the range and is really mad now." Her angry response from 3 rooms away, "I heard that ! ! !"

No matter what, we both agree that life has never been better, we both need each other to be happy, and do love each other very much. On my third try, I found the best woman ever. It took 3 wives, but I'll make 50 year of marriage :rolleyes: :D :eek: .
 
Been married to Mrs Chukar so long I do not remember what single was like. 38 or 39 years now. Not too sure which
Some of you guys just married or attached yourselves to the wrong woman.
No baloney, I have spent more anniversaries in elk camp than I have at home. All with her blessing.
I own more guns than I need by a long shot. Not once has she been critical or asked in a serious manner how many are in the safe.
But, the woman is stubborn and does not like being wrong. A few years ago we were having a disagreement, not an argument about something and after a bit I said you are right and went to go back to what I was doing.
She said “ you do not really mean that, do you?”
I replied that of course I did. “No you do not!” Was the reply.
I said, “look you are always right, so why bother arguing any further?”
She says, “I am not always right, it is rude of you to say that.”
My reply, “but you are never wrong are you?”
And the finale, she says, “no I am not wrong, but that does not meant that I am right. It just means I won’t admit it!” This last was delivered with the devilish smile of hers that I have loved for years.
Took my small victory and went back to the work bench to play with my toys.
 
I was single for 24 years,married for 28 and single again for 13 years. Women are great for the most part, just don’t get hooked lol
