Why do women ask impossible questions?

[Fletch]

She calls me into the bedroom last night, after receiving a bunch of packages from UPS yesterday.

"Do these shoes look OK?" She poses her left foot forward, then her right.

"They look fine."

"Which one looks better?"

I look. "Are you being serious right now? They're the same shoe."

"No, this one has stitching around the side, and this one doesn't."

I squint. "They're both black shoes, there's nothing wrong with my eyes, there's only about 6 feet from my eyes to those shoes, and from here I can't tell the difference."

"Yeah, but which one looks better?"

a couple weeks ago we were taking a tire to be patched.

my wife ask me "how long does patching a tire take?"

i said "10-15 minutes"

she replied "no it doesn't"

i reply "so basically you are saying you have no clue the answer, but you know im wrong"

And you have a problem with that logic?

I believe it was Bill Cosby who said this,

"Women don't want to hear what you think, they want to hear what they think in a deeper voice."

That right there is classic.

Fletch, your posts are almost always entertaining. You and vette just described my own wife.

Crap, I knew there was something I forgot to do!!!

Note to self: shorten chain...

After 20 years of wedded "bliss" I have one important, life saving fact! When your wife asks you a question, they already have the answer you should give. It's your job to figure out what that is. When you can do this, you win at marriage.

A very wise man once asked me, "Son, do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy?"

Thanks Dad!!!

I always hate the dreaded "does this make me look fat?" Honesty is not always the best policy.

My wife gets mad at me when a home repair project goes really fast.

"You mean it only took you 15 minutes to fix that? It could have been done weeks ago!"

Yes, because I literally did NOTHING between your brining it up and me finding the time to take care of it. Especially since trivial things like feeding the family, going to work, cleaning the house, sleeping, have a bit higher priority than fixing the hole she put in the wall while throwing a fit one day.

Women may mature faster, but they hit their limit at about 16.

I've never understood why women will spend more time and effort gripping about something not getting done than it would take for them to just do it themselves. Mine is great about complaining about me not doing anything to help out around the house. TRANSLATION: not doing what she wants done. When I offer to take over watching tv for her until the laundry is done so that she can go outside and mow two yards, change the oil in HER car, rotate HER tires, and fix whatever is broken at the moment, she just looks at me like I'm being selfish or something.

Guys, the answer to all this is simple. Any response you give will be wrong, so don't respond unless you are under extreme pressure to do so. Best to just mumble and eventually they will dismiss you as an unfeeling nitwit. Most importantly remember; even if you are right, you are wrong.

If you can answer the question, bottle it and make millions.

Root issue.

"If a man is talking and there is no woman who can hear him, is he still lying?"

Really, the title of the OP is an impossible question!
