It's a Guy Thing

Grrr. The bold got turned on and I couldn't turn it off again. Weird.

Both of those are so true.. thanks for making me laugh

Haha, the second one is soooo true!

Love the Home Depot one. I'll have to thnk about this and see if I can come up with any. =)

The thing about Home Depot has ring of truth to it.

oh gosh that is great and so true, I don't listen much to those kinds of jokes though.

A man thinks he is helping with the laundry when he avoids kicking his dirty socks and underwear under the bed.

:-)

A car isn't a car without a monster of a sound system

Larry, you're right!

I can relate very well to that second one.

My son and hubby didn't think these were as funny as I did. Well...my son did think that the second sounded a bit like my hubby. :-)

Why did the Israelites wonder in the desert for 40 years? Moses would not ask for directions!

Yes, Bert! That's the way!

You know what scares my wife? My reluctance to use pot holders. I'll tell her to stay out of my direct path to the table and try to deal with the pain. She thinks it's retarded and supposed I was the only one who viewed pot holders as a sign of weakness but one of her friends said her husband does it too. Two people is not an adequate statistical sample but it could be a guy thing...

These are funny, Marilyn! Thanks for sharing. The Home Depot one is so true. Can't seem to keep my honey out of there even with no projects to do :)

Come to think of it---I can't think of a single "guy" joke!

Bret, do you really not use pot holders? That's a new one on me. I thought not asking for directions was bad. But not using pot holders?????????

I can relate to both of those!

My hubby is a seasoned pro when it comes to do it yourself projects. However, he is always sure that he already has the part needed in his tool chests. The part is usually not exactly the right one or it is missing and can't be found. Another trip to Home Depot, Lowe's or Menards. We have all three right next to each other.

1. Men like to barbecue. Men will cook if danger is involved.

2. Men who have pierced ears are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry.

3. Marrying a divorced man is ecologically responsible. In a world where there are more women than men, it pays to recycle.

4. Men are very confident people. My husband is so confident that when he watches sports on television, he thinks that if he concentrates he can help his team. If the team is in trouble, he coaches the players from our living room, and if they're really in trouble, I have to get off the phone in case they call him.

5. Men like phones with lots of buttons. It makes them feel important.

6. Men love to be the first to read the newspaper in the morning. Not being the first is upsetting to their psyches.

7. All men are afraid of eyelash curlers. I sleep with one under my pillow, instead of a gun.

8. A good place to meet a man is at the dry cleaner. These men usually have jobs and bathe.

9. All men hate to hear "We need to talk about our relationship." These seven words strike fear in the heart of even General Schwartzkopf.

10. Men are sensitive in strange ways. If a man has built a fire and the last log does not burn, he will take it personally.

11. Men have an easier time buying bathing suits. Women have two types: depressing and more depressing. Men have two types: nerdy and not nerdy.

12. Men have higher body temperatures than women. If your heating goes out in winter, I recommend sleeping next to a man. Men are like portable heaters that snore.

13. Women take clothing much more seriously than men. I've never seen a man walk into a party and say "Oh, my God, I'm so embarrassed; get me out of here. There's another man wearing a black tuxedo."

14. Most men hate to shop. That's why the men's department is usually on the first floor of a department store, two inches from the door.

15. If a man prepares dinner for you and the salad contains three or more types of lettuce, he is serious.

16. If you're dating a man who you think might be "Mr. Right," if he a) got older, b) got a new job, or c) visited a psychiatrist, you are in for a nasty surprise. The cocoon-to-butterfly theory only works on cocoons and butterflies.

17. No man is charming all of the time. Even Cary Grant is on record saying he wished he could be Cary Grant.

18. When four or more men get together, they talk about sports.

19. When four or more women get together, they talk about men.

20. Men are less sentimental than women. No man has ever seen the movie THE WAY WE WERE twice, voluntarily.

21. Most women are introspective: "Am I in love? Am I emotionally and creatively fulfilled?" Most men are outrospective: "Did my team win? How's my car?"

22. If a man says, "I'll call you," and he doesn't, he didn't forget... he didn't lose your number... he didn't die. He just didn't want to call you.

Way to go, Holli.

LOL@ Holli

I can soo relate to both of thee.. I had a friend who bought a car for 250.00 from the Salvation Army.. turned around and fixed it up a little and put in about 2500.00 worth of stereo equipment, When he drove down the road, we could feel the vibrations from his car when he was a few housess away! It's a wonder he isn't deaf.. actually, I haven't talked to him in a few years, he may be deaf by now LOL I know lots of guys who fit the second one.. it's definitely a guy thing LOL

"15. If a man prepares dinner for you and the salad contains three or more types of lettuce, he is serious."

I would almost dare to say that the existence of a salad is a pretty good indicator... ;-P

"18. When four or more men get together, they talk about sports.

19. When four or more women get together, they talk about men."

The numbers should probably say "two or more" on each of those.
