- Elaine> regard gifts of clothing as gifts, unless I have specified
- Elaine> exactly what I want.
-
- In my [usual] density, I guess I just don't get it. Was it a rape
- whistle by any chance?
-
- Peeve: The CO doesn't model her crotchless panties any more.
-
- Girls just don't seem to appreciate the "spirit" of crotchless panties..
-
- Anti-Peeve: She doesn't ask me to wear that leopard-skinned jock strap
- any more..
-
- I itch when I think about it.
-
- Elaine> I looked at the gent levelly and said, "That's very nice,
- Elaine> now what did you get *me* for my birthday?" The next
- Elaine> Christmas he got me a toolbox and some opal earrings. :-)
-
- Peeve: The CO, when asked what she *really* wants for Christmas, says
- "Oh.. I just want a cord of firewood.." Yeh, right!
-
- As any married man knows, getting her firewood is a sure way to end up in
- the dog house for a week. What she's really trying to do is lay a guilt
- trip on you because you haven't bought the winter's firewood yet.
-
- Elaine> Get her jewelry or power tools. Ask her to model the gift
- Elaine> without other adornment of any kind. I guarantee you will
- Elaine> have more success with tasteful opals or other
- Elaine> semi-precious materials than you will with crap from
- Elaine> Trailer Trash....er.....Frederick's of Hollywood.
-
- Peeve: Having to BORROW the CO's crappy tools from the crappy tool box
- and tool set you bought her five years ago.. Particularly that
- little dinky claw hammer.
-
- A man needs a [manly] HAMMER! Like Dad's old Estwing framing hammer. By
- God you can set a roofing nail with a single blow..
-
- Elaine> Peeve: I lost one of the earrings.
-
- Well, Elaine, that's one of the proven Best Uses of us men-critters. We
- can be blamed for *anything*.
-
- Example: The lid vacuum-locked on the cooking rice last night. Whose
- fault? Mine, of course! I quote:
-
- "Well, I'm not the ENGINEER! If you don't have something
- constructive to suggest, then I wish you'd say nothing."
-
- (I had just suggested drilling a small hole in the lid of the pan..
- [Before you condemn me - it WOULD HAVE WORKED!])
