Ok Heres The Deal

Stang · 09-17-2002, 09:18 PM

You know how you guys are always pickin on us girls about like us doing our hair/makeup and anything else? Well I got one that tops it all for you men.

How come whenever you ask us where something is and we tell you where it is you can never find it? Then we go right in there and dig around and BAM! there it is! Then you say "I looked", yeah right you did, then how come I found it?

Spinning Hat · 09-18-2002, 07:28 AM

You didn't tell us to dig for anything, you just say "It's in the drawer" and expect us to dig for it. :/

XRogue · 09-18-2002, 10:03 AM

What, there is something wrong with that? You want it, you find it.

Heck, Gambit can't even find stuff he puts away. If he does put it away, that is!

Stang, you come up with some excellent gripage ideas.

Spinning Hat · 09-18-2002, 11:11 AM

my wife has a tendency to move things around on me, so before i go looking, i ask for it.

Xenocidez66 · 09-20-2002, 02:03 AM

Funny In my house its the totaly opposit, My wife can't find anything from her purse to her makeup. The real stupid thing is I know where everything is because I have come behind her and cleaned up everything she left out. My wife dosn't know where anything is. I did grow up in an enviroment where my father didn't know where anything was and I told my self that I wasn't going to be like that.

Some times It can work both ways. (sorry ladies I don't mean to steal your thunder)

Stang · 09-20-2002, 05:10 PM

Yes but its mostly you men that do it, its a rarety to see a woman in that role

.

You cant steal my thunder

.

Xenocidez66 · 09-21-2002, 02:24 AM

Wasn't trying to steal your thunder in any way just making a point that it happens the other way. And yes I agree that most of the time its men that are the ones. Take my dad for instance. he is 51 (i think) and if it weren't for my mother i am sure that he wouldn't be able to dress himself in the morning because he couldn't find any of his cloths. I grew up with that and decided at a point in my life that I would pay attention and know what is going on arround me.

Yes men are pigs. Not gonna try and cover that up, But not all of us.

XRogue · 09-21-2002, 09:46 AM

Fair enough man. Glad you learned to be self sufficient.

Now why don't you teach Gambino to do that?

Stang · 09-21-2002, 01:50 PM

Oh dont get me wrong not all men arent like that and I got lucky and got one of them

. Im just pointing out some of the goofy stuff you guys do

, cuz hell its funny as hell!!!

BTW, it happened again last night

. He said he had looked EVERYWHERE for a CD he needed for a reinstall. Well as usual I started lookin and was digging in one of his drawers and again I said "Oh looky here". And of course what is his response? "I looked there". Well apartently not cuz I found it and if you found it then I wouldnt be looking for it

.

GOTCHA AGAIN!!!

Gambit · 09-22-2002, 06:02 PM

It's gone both directons for us, really.

For example, a couple of days ago I was at work and asked her to look at a network card that I'd left lying on my desk. Told her the area it was in, she couldn't find it, and when I came home it was lying there in plain sight about six inches from where I told her to look.

On the other hand, one time I got really, really, mad at her because she'd moved a pile of important documents I'd been dealing with and we couldn't find the one I needed in the place she thought she'd moved 'em to. What made it worse was that it was that the particular one I was looking for had been moved previously by... ME! Ohhh, I felt like a heel. And deservedly so.

And a couple of days ago she misplaced some hardware we needed to complete a project she wanted to do. We practically turned the kitchen upside down looking for it, but no dice. So we bought some replacements today and did it. I found it amusing. She did not.

So, we both lose stuff. And we both get mad about it. But as a general rule, she handles it better.

Spinning Hat · 09-22-2002, 06:35 PM

hehehe.... Been there, done that.

XRogue · 09-22-2002, 07:35 PM

Oh like I have any idea what a network card looks like.

Besides, I'll have you know that Gambit is about 8 years behind on his promise to help me become computer literate.

And who of the two of us pulls this number more often, huh?

Spinning Hat · 09-23-2002, 04:57 AM

hehehehe... a Network Card is usually green, with one big phone jack looking port on the back.

(RJ-45, actually. Phone jacks are RJ-11) If I wasn't so disgusted with the "Insert Title" for Dummies series, I'd say get one of those books, but, frankly, a book with a title like that is something that insults it's readers from the start, and I will never use one of those.

Gambit · 09-23-2002, 05:22 AM

This one was a wireless PCMCIA card in a little baggie.
