LOL Funny things people say..

Earlier in the evening whilst talking about our beautiful daughters ability to perambulate bipedally adequately my wife said....

"Did you see Daisy running earlier"

My response..

"I saw her walking fast but not running as she can't lift both feet off the floor at the same time yet"

My wife's response..

"You don't take both feet off the floor when you run............... Usain Bolt (!) doesn't have both feet off the ground when he runs the 100 metres"!!!?!??!?

I avoided snorting wine out of my nose (was Pinot Noir) and showed her the wikipedia entry for running - she's not convinced you know...


She's a highly qualified divorce lawyer with years of experience and is otherwise sensible and rational but WTF??............ *FACEPALM*

Instead of asking for Bio Oil in Boots earlier I ended up asking for T-Cut..

Was trying to be a little more left field than that

That's just the man's version of the same thing.

Here's your card:

It has often been said that some of the most intelligent people are sometimes devoid of common sense- you just need to show her a picture of someone running ( both feet off the ground, mid-stride ). I imagine the response will be something like "oooohhhhhhhh........"

I think this could possibly be a case of her thinking "Did he just try to correct me? I will destroy his mind".

Then she followed standard procedure for driving our kind insane:

• Reaffirm original statement.
• Back it up with an example. If one is not available, make something up.
• Deny all proof given to you.
• Bring up all his shortcomings and mistakes he's ever made, ever.
• Deny sex (at which point both parties usually agree that the man is always wrong).

So lucky for you that you didn't push beyond step 3. She's a lawyer too which makes it even worse. I have a female friend who is a very successful lawyer and takes her court-room persona every time there's an argument. She's relentless and never gives up until you accept that you're wrong.

At least that's how it looks to me from the OP. I could be wrong. If I was arguing with a woman I would definitely be wrong.

Arguing against a woman... as productive as chopping down a tree with an axe made of chocolate on a very hot day.
