For the Guy in your life

Quote:Take the above sample men's C sentence, "I need to go to the store." Another man hears this as "I need to go to the store." He does this because he presumes the words mean exactly what they literally mean. A woman, however, often hears the sentence and thinks it's really women's Java. Thus, she hears:

"I am offering you a golden opportunity to tell me whatever you need at the store. Whatever you tell me, I will pick up. And I will pick up the right kind, even though you never told me which 'the right kind' is. Furthermore, I will stroll through the aisles looking for great sales and stock up on products we are already stocked up on. Lastly, I will wait happily here beside the door for several minutes with keys in hand and shoes on feet waiting for you to gather your list."

My wife does this to me all the time :(

I'll need to go to the nearest convenience store to pick up something simple like a loaf of bread or milk or something, and the next thing I know she's going over store flyers, handing me coupons, and writing lists. A 5 minute trip to the store just turned into a 2 hour excursion covering 20 miles and half a dozen stops, not including putting gas the car because it just dropped below half a tank and she hates that. AND GOD HELP ME IF I MISS SOMETHING!
