If a man opens a car door for his wife, its either a new wife or a new car.

That is very topical as I believe that was a Prince Philip quote?

Why can't they just answer the question you're asking?

Me: What shall we do for dinner tonight?
Her: Well Asda is delivering around 8
Me: ?????
yes

I feel our wives must be related.

Not a classic, but I'm sat upstairs doing a bit of lazy Sunday afternoon surfing. Downstairs in the kitchen the Mrs has the MIL and 2 friends round. 4 of them. There must be 3 conversations (at least) going on at the same time.

Don't worry you'll not have missed a thing. They'll be relayed to you perfectly later on.

OH to my baby daughter who was sat in the bath.

“Don’t eat that water”

A little later, watching TV with baby daughter.

“Oooh look, a moo moo cat”

My (nearly) partner has a cat she calls Moo Moo, no wonder the poor thing gets confused!

Sidebar: Why do woman insist on doing that? Relying every part of an irrelevant conversation? I once brought it up and was told I was rude for not showing an interest. I have to hear every conversation she’s had a my work but she’d have no interest what I’m up to on the garage.

One of her favorite TV shows is about ready to start. So she claims most of the couch and sits down with a glass of wine.
Then she's up and out of the room.
She returns and the first thing she says is "What have I missed?"
Me "About the first 10 minutes"
Her "But what happened?"
Me "No idea, I don't watch that crap. Besides if you had been here 10 minutes ago you wouldn't have to ask"
Her. Sullen silence. clap

Could be worse, mine rewinds it.

(and don't call it crap that's just rude. Uh huh, I wasn't really watching is the correct response)

Mine is worse. She turns on the TV to some Hallmark type channel then sits down and immerses herself in a book of Sudoku puzzles. If I then ask her what the programme is about she doesn't have a bloody clue. rolleyes

Just watching Simon and Garfunkel sing Sound of Silence in 1966.
On Mumsnet there was a thread running about daft things you used to believe. Some woman posted who used to think Simon and Garth were brothers with the surname of Funkel, until she was about 35. hehe

That's nothing.

My brother-in-law's wife has a sister who thought the sun and the moon were the same planet until she was 30. I kid you not.
