Men and the stupid things they do.

(Sorry guys and feel free to start an equivelent 'stupid women' thread altho you will be hard pressed to get the list as long as I can make mine...)

Sometimes I shake my head in wonderment at the way the male brain work.

How can you not understand what a teatowel is for? Like, I don't want to wipe my wet hands on it or dry my plates with it after I have just seen you use it like a mop to wipe up the floor.

Or peg etiquette. Undies only need one peg. ONE.

And when you light up the barbeque and you can't see the steak through the smoke, don't just stand there and watch it - close the window above the BBQ so the house doesn't fill with smoke.

You are probably right, joono. I am giving them too much credit. 😄

Being able to spend hours on the computer but suddenly totally incompetent when it comes to Bpay makes me wonder though.

i doubt that.

drying dishes using a teatowl isnt necessary if your equipped with a double sink, one sink for washing the other to rinse.. then place them on a rack to dry (saves a lot of work and wiping too) teatowls have many other benifical uses

Or peg etiquette. Undies only need one peg. ONE.

i do one better and just hand all my washing on an indoor portable line

again, saves a lot of time an effort fiddling with pegs too

Most tea towels I've used are hydrophobic.Best used for getting oil,grease or paint off your hands:-)

ive got 2 adult sons and i dont know where their brains are sometimes

when it comes to basic house work stuff their brains are mush lol

i have to explain it like i would to an child over and over again lol

its possibly a fault of the "female" mother not teaching their "male' child the basics of house work at an early age

when it comes to cars.computors and gaming.building or weights they know everything

its pobably coz the "male" father took to time to teach their sons something, instead of whining at them

personally i learnt more from my step dad then i ever did from my mother

(i learnt how to do house work effectively at rehab, i wondered why i was allocated to do house chores there.. when i thought i was there to learn about addiction & to get off drugs, after leaving the place i knew why

Ummm why is he even in the kitchen doing womans works!!!!!!!!!!!

and if you dont like the way he cooks on the barbie you could always cook the steaks in your kitchen.

And if you dont like the smoke in the house you could always close the window, after all he is busy cooking for you. 😛

Me thinks you have a very funny but warped sense of humour hawk, plenty of house husbands do the cooking while their executive wives are out earning the big bucks.

Steaks are much better on the BBQ and that has always been mans work.

This thread reminded me that I have a pic of son's washing on the line.

It was all stiff as a board after a few days but check out the technique....

especially the  T-shirt and folded over sock.

"It dries, mum" .

Well yes it does 

[*crikey*mate*]

I had been wondering for a few days why the nozzle thingy off the end of the hose was on the sink in the bathroom.

I found out today.

OH took the nozzle off the hose so that he could connect it to the gurney and clean the shower......

I kid you not.

I wish i had a water tap inside the house thats compatible to the garden hose fittings, i have to bring the hose in from outside

to rinse off the dunny as well

its cool and very effective once you know  any excessive water will drain through the plumbing of the floor drains
