Classic from the Mrs! Vol 2
Discussion
Playing with the boy and his train set, he puts a little wooden horse on the line and orders all trains to stop. I make some joke about the horse being on a 'mane line' (thinking that's pretty clever), she then chips in with, 'yeah, it had better mooo-ve!' She then looks confused as I stare at her in bewilderment.

A few years ago we were in Costco , I stopped to look at something while my wife carried on down the aisle, 2 minutes later she comes back without the trolley
Where are you going
To find a member of staff, that vending machine has kept my pound
I go round the corner , there's a vending machine, on a pallet , for sale, with a price on it and it's not even plugged in
Luckily at the cost of £1 I managed to catch her before she got served at the membership desk to save the embarrassment
Oh dear God.Where are you going

Taking the Mrs, our son & the Mother in Law for a curry on Sunday (I'm driving) & the Mother in Law comes out with:-
"If it's snowing on Sunday & we're snowed in, we'll just have to get a taxi to take us."
She couldn't understand why me & the Mrs were laughing and making the Joey Deacon face at her - and still didn't, even when we asked her if we were snowed in, how was the taxi going to get us there.

To be fair, I drive a TVR daily and if it is snowing then I too am getting a taxi. There is a world of difference between driving a Toyota Avensis in the snow and a TVR,I promise you! Plus maybe you MIL is not that good a driver?"If it's snowing on Sunday & we're snowed in, we'll just have to get a taxi to take us."

I see where you're coming from, but I can imagine some conditions would mean digging the car out on the drive, and a difficult drive on your road, to find the main road is clear enough.
In that case, her argument stands.
Not that I've ever had these conditions in the UK mind...
I do get where you're coming from, however you're applying logic and common sense to the situation. So as we're talking about my Mother in Law that means you're wrongIn that case, her argument stands.

I'm guessing that you are giving the woman way to much credit. In that case, her argument stands.

Her - When you're out, can you get me some grounded almonds.
Me- No problem, the last thing we want is almonds with an ego, living beyond their means.

I've detected a theme in some of my wife's output:
When an unmarked letter arrives - "who's that from?"
When the phone or doorbell rings - "Who's that?"
When I've started eating first and she has a forkful half way to her mouth - "how is it?"
They are all the same. When I walk out the front room door in my slippers to go upstairs, she invariably says "Where are you going"When an unmarked letter arrives - "who's that from?"
When the phone or doorbell rings - "Who's that?"

I can be watching a TV programme with my Mrs - one which neither of us have ever seen before & she'll ask "so who's that then?" or "why is he locked in that room?".
How I'm supposed to know when we've both watched exactly the same thing is beyond me

I once was stuck behind someone who did the same - but she'd put 3.6 bar in to all four! Took bloody ages for the compressor to put that much air in. I imagine the ride was quite interesting.
You saw her do that and let her drive off....?
