If a man says something in a forest and there isn't a woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. - Mark Twain

I'm sure there would be at least a couple of female trees around. He's definitely wrong.

Reminds of something in the distant past - like nine hours ago.
Seeing the empty bottle, I asked Mrs. Wife if she had been using and finished off a bottle of single-malt scotch making Whisky Sours.
The rest, I'm afraid, was the usual we can all identify with - why there was an explosion as to why it's all my fault, etc, etc, etc.
Well - new strategy - she said she used it because 'it was on top' - so I'm moving a bottle of Lagavulin on top - let's see how that works out for her . . .

You should put a bottle of donkey piss on top. See who that works out...

I move a bottle of vodka(with lots of water in it) to the front and keep adding a couple cups of water for each shot of vodka. Slows down the younger ones in the house and others who don't know.

Yes, and it was wrong of you to even ask.

Don't ever think that there is no reason behind that kind of seemingly irrational behavior. Whatever you do, don't get angry or defensive.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

That's the best advice. I'm following the same. Because I know what happens otherwise.

I learnt it the hard way. Now I'm into the elite league. Handling things much better.

I'm a natural, I guess. I never put up with that kind of behavior, not even when it was still some years until some hair started to grow in my face. I was officially labeled 'uncontrollable', first by my mother and then by all females that followed. As if I needed them or their control.

I should tell you, that's one of the toughest things to handle on earth!

Second only to the times when they , god forbid, have to admit to having made a big mistake and desperately try the absurdest things to blame it on you or evil oppressive men in general. Usually I enjoy it far too much when they knew everything better and the whole thing ends in a desaster. Some people only learn through pain and that will not happen if some idiots always come to their rescue and then get all the blame as an additional reward.

I saw a report on TV about a software developer who quit his job and went to Africa to become a bush pilot. That's a great idea. Now, where do I get an old Huey and enough money to keep it flying...

Sounds wonderful. I'm sure the software developer is a loner.

Quote: He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was

I guess for that one day, he was a lucky man.

So take her out.
Dinner on Friday (take flowers) and a day out with her and the kids on Saturday (or Sunday).
I mean how hectic can work really be, you should have SOME time for the ones you love?
Loved ones > work, and so shall be the whole of the law.

This is happening almost every weekend.
In her language, going out means going for a picnic, to a resort and chill out for 4-5 days, shutting down all office works.
And the point is, she isnt deprived of all these, at all. It's definitely not her problem. There could be some other reasons. Will come to know some other day when she's back to normal. There's a waiting time to get to the actual facts. lol
She knows it well, that I'm not at fault now. But you see, that's how it works. When a quarrel is picked up, I cannot point out the logic/fact/rational. It works beyond all these.
But she's nice in general, once in 3-4 months this kinda turbulence happens and I need to sit and investigate what the heck would have happened.

That's what women are known for I guess
It is believed they keep a woman who tells you what's wrong captive in Area 51.
Another theory is that they've developed a microwave that heats your food instead of your plate.
Either of those would be truly alien indeed...

Very true! That's why I never looked for another option. I know it can easily become "From the frying pan to the fire". I'm completely okay with the pan. My butts are used to this now
