Subject: THINGS MEN SAY & WHAT THEY MEAN...

"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 dinner 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 ARE 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 was a real babe."

"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

am hurt."

"HEY, I'VE GOT MY REASONS FOR WHAT I'M DOING." Means: "And I sure 

hope

I think of some pretty good reasons 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 3 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."
