It’s ironic.
We yearn to find someone
from the opposite sex.
And we’re surprised to discover that they’re our opposites!
If only we spoke the same language…
HIM: “I nearly tripped over this when I came home, dear.”
TRANSLATION: “Let’s move this or I’ll break my neck.”
HER: “I’ll put a big bouquet of flowers on it so you won’t miss it.”
TRANSLATION: “We can’t move it because it’s bolted to the floor.”
HIM: “But Snookums, we don’t have any room to put these.”
TRANSLATION: “I’d like a place to display my NFL memorabilia.”
HER: “But they’re family heirlooms!”
TRANSLATION: “I got them on sale!”
HIM: “Let’s get some new furniture, lamb chop.”
TRANSLATION: “I broke the chair.”
HER: “I’ll be down in a minute, Love Buckets.”
TRANSLATION: “I’m gossiping with Cindy.”
It’s no wonder that we need friends…
It’s good to be with folks who speak our language.
DUDE: “It’s 16 horse power, real leather seats, and look at the cupholders!”
OTHER DUDES: “Sweet!”
BETTY: “I missed the deadline to sign up Henry for fencing.
Now he’ll fall behind all the other princes.
I’m such a rotten mother.”
CINDY: “No you aren’t!
Let’s figure out how you can find
another fencing class for Henry.
Everything will be fine.”
