Things Men Say

This is what I found from an article, very interesting ladies :slight_smile: Take a look. Guys do you think any of this is true??

“I’M GOING FISHING”

Means: “I’m going to drink myself dangerously stupid,and stand by a stream with a stick in my hand, while the fish swim by in complete safety.”

“IT’S A GUY THING”
Means: “There is no rational thought pattern connected with it, and you have no chance at all of making it logical”.

“CAN I HELP WITH DINNER?”
Means: “Why isn’t it already on the table?”

“UH HUH,” “SURE, HONEY,” OR “YES, DEAR…”
Means: Absolutely nothing. It’s a conditioned response.

“IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO EXPLAIN”
Means: “I have no idea how it works.”

“I WAS LISTENING TO YOU. IT’S JUST THAT I HAVE THINGS ON MY MIND.”
Means: “I was wondering if that redhead over there is wearing a bra.”

“TAKE A BREAK HONEY, YOU’RE WORKING TOO HARD”.
Means: “I can’t hear the game over the vacuum cleaner.”

“THAT’S INTERESTING, DEAR.”
Means: “Are you still talking?”

“YOU KNOW HOW BAD MY MEMORY IS.”
Means: “I remember the theme song to ‘F Troop’, the address of the first girl I ever kissed, and the vehicle identification numbers of every car I’ve ever owned, but I forgot your birthday.”

“I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT YOU, AND GOT YOU THESE ROSES”.
Means: “The girl selling them on the corner had great tits.”

“OH, DON’T FUSS, I JUST CUT MYSELF, IT’S NO BIG DEAL.”
Means: “I have actually severed a limb, but will bleed to death before I admit that I’m hurt.”

“HEY, I’VE GOT MY REASONS FOR WHAT I’M DOING”.
Means: “And I sure hope I think of some pretty soon.”

“I CAN’T FIND IT.”
Means: “It didn’t fall into my outstretched hands, so I’m completely clueless.”

“WHAT DID I DO THIS TIME?”
Means: “What did you catch me at?”

“I HEARD YOU.”
Means: “I haven’t the foggiest clue what you just said, and am hoping desperately that I can fake it well enough so that you don’t spend the next three days yelling at me.”

“YOU KNOW I COULD NEVER LOVE ANYONE ELSE”
Means: “I am used to the way you yell at me, and realize it could be worse.”

“YOU LOOK TERRIFIC”
Means: “Please don’t try on one more outfit, I’m starving.”

“I’M NOT LOST. I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE.”
Means: “No one will ever see us alive again.”

“WE SHARE THE HOUSEWORK”
Means: “I make the messes, she cleans them up.”

‘I MISS YOU’…
now what do you think this one mean??? :smiley:

“TAKE A BREAK HONEY, YOU’RE WORKING TOO HARD”.
Means: “I can’t hear the game over the vacuum cleaner.”

“I CAN’T FIND IT.”
Means: “It didn’t fall into my outstretched hands, so I’m completely clueless.”

“YOU LOOK TERRIFIC”
Means: “Please don’t try on one more outfit, I’m starving.”

i’ll plead guilty on those ones, many of the others are completely foreign to me though.

That one is for DAMN sure true!

There’s another one:

“LET’S STAY HOME AND HAVE A ROMANTIC EVENING”
means: “I’m horny and I wanna shag!”

Taiwanese guys have one…

YOU JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND
I can’t explain it in any way that would make sense, and it’s your fault.

[quote=“kiwiabc”]“YOU LOOK TERRIFIC”
Means: “Please don’t try on one more outfit, I’m starving.”[/quote]
Yup.

Or, replace “starving” with “bored to tears”.

I still don’t understand why women like to drag their men along on shopping trips. We think they look great in anything, and in the event that we do have an opinion about a prospective outfit, they won’t listen to it.

One more.

YES, I AGREE.
Means: “No I don’t agree. I still believe I’m right and you’re wrong, but it just doesn’t matter that much and I’m tired of arguing.”

“HEY, I’VE GOT MY REASONS FOR WHAT I’M DOING”.
Means: “And I sure hope I think of some pretty soon.”

I’ve used this… usually for making some trivial decision when driving. The thing is that I do have reasons for my decisions (positioning and movements of other drivers, location of my destination, weather conditions, past experience with a certain stretch of road, degree of familiarity with a route, etc. etc. ad nauseam), and once I’ve finished with it, I forget my reasoning and concentrate on the next stretch of driving. So when asked “Why did you go into the left lane instead of staying in the right lane” or “Why did you slow down instead of speed up”, by that time I’ve forgotten the reasons, and by that time it makes no sense to go back and try to reconstruct the scenario to justify my actions, so I respond that I “had a reason” for doing it.

ha :slight_smile: you mean guys prefer women wearing nothing at all :smiley: :slight_smile:

F Troop?

A TV show popular with boys in the 1970s.

This isn’t a saying… but it’s in relation to guy’s body language… -_-

My ex is not a very PDA type of guy, but everytime we went shopping, he’d hold on tightly… and I thought it was quite sweet… ^^

I found out later that he only held my hand so I wouldn’t go try on clothes / buy stuff… :raspberry:

Here’s another thing men say:

Shut the fuck up.

Oh, and it means shut the fuck up.

Where Indian fights are colorful sights,
And nobody takes a lickin’
Where Pale Face and Red Skin,
All turn Chicken,

[quote=“Mother Theresa”]One more.

YES, I agree.
Means: “No I don’t agree. I still believe I’m right and you’re wrong, but it just doesn’t matter that much and I’m tired of arguing.”[/quote]

Oh my God! You’re a quitter! I’d never say I’m wrong if I wasn’t. That sets a very dangerous precedent, mate.

Agarn!!

Scratch this thing for me.

Priorities, man. Would you rather argue for an hour about where to eat, or who said what, or whether this one looks better than that one, or would you rather end the damn issue immediately and get on with life?

You’re not married, are you?

Or blissfully divorced? :laughing:

I agree with BigJohn, again. Arguing for an hour about where to eat or who said what is stupid, but nobody has to be right or wrong. Stating that you’re wrong is very stupid, because it’s a cop out that doesn’t address the real issue.

You want to eat here, I want to eat there, we can toss a coin or take turns deciding. You can have your way because I don’t really care that much, or you can bloody well give in because there’s no way I’m ever going to eat at that shithole again. But I’m not wrong, and neither are you. Why is there any need to argue about this?

Accepting that you’re wrong assumes that it’s important for someone to be right. If it’s not important, just say “it’s not important.”

That means shut the fuck-up in Chief-speak, by the way.
