Here is the situation.
We have the wife's Creamsicle and the husband's 914 turbo. The creamsicle needs complete restoration. The husband states the turbo, even though already a beautiful 914, needs some things to make it roadworthy. Of course, some of the things are cosmetic and really don't pertain to its driving ability. Here is the issue. The wife has been buying things for the LE, such as a '74 parts car with near perfect interior parts. The husband started going through the parts car, and was pulling things off saying "I can use that for my car". The wife ordered a spoiler for her LE, and the husband said "I can use that for my car since the DAPO ran over something and broke the spoiler on mine". Vote: Whose 914 should be first priority?

Rob,
Watch for tell-tale signs, clues and various well placed words: (1) FINE: this is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up. (2) FIVE MINUTES: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five Minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house. (3) NOTHING: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine. (4) GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission. DON'T DO IT! (5) LOUD SIGH: This is actually not a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.) (6) THAT'S OKAY: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistakes. (7) THANKS: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says "THANKS A LOT" - that is pure sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "You're welcome" ... that will bring on a "whatever") (8) WHATEVER: Is a woman's way of saying Screw You! (9) DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT, I GOT IT: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's Wrong?" |
