I spend a lot of time on this site through interest as well as through boredom at work and most of the stories can be quite negative and can involve very negative personas of women
so in a nice, nearly the end of the week, way i thought i'd start a post about funny things women have said without meaning too in the hope of cheering us all up.

I start with a visit to the cinema with my missus when without shame or remorse she asked me during the movie if it was based on a true story, fair question!? except the film in question was the 2005 remake of King Kong - yes dear i'm glad i wasn't around in the 30's because of all the giant man squishing gorilla's - i decided against watching the planet of the apes remake with her lol

....very negative personas of women

That's the way of man forums (fora?) - people go on when they have a problem that they need help with - very few people ever go on and say "I have this , and I've no problem with it"

Have to say, I am married to my third wife. Still very good friends with my first (we never fell out, even during the divorce), and obviously with my current, so on average, I've had more good experience than bad 😆

It wasn't a dig at how anyone uses this forum, i get it, i myself have vented about my partner on this site - I just thought it would be a nice light-hearted change of pace for a cheap giggle, but thank you for pointing out the obvious, if it had still been Monday Morning I would have missed it

Oh my god, I didn't mean to write 'man forums' - that was a typo, it was meant to say 'many forums'. 😆

Wasn't getting at you - I'm on a couple of other forums for my bike and car - anyone reading the forums would think that the vehicles were very unreliable because everyone posts that they've got a problem. 🙂

ha ha, i like this thread. I guess I come on here for the same reasons, sometimes it's nice to have a rant, or get some advice, and sometimes it's just out of plain old curiosity.

However, if we're gonna talk about the stupid stuff women say, my wife Julie has to win hands down. In fact, all our friends have coined the phrase "julieism" for when they say something stupid. So what does that tell you!?! 😆

One of my all time favourites, when someone mentioned pennsylvania in a conversation, was my wife's response of ah ah ah (count dracula from sesame street style) and she didnt get why we were all rolling on the floor til someone explained that dracula comes from transylvania from pennsylvania!

The other was last week when, despite having already given birth to 2 children, she asked me that because the baby was attached to her by cord and placenta, could it read her thoughts!!!! I couldnt answer for the tears that rolled down my face. 😆

There are lots more, as I remember them, or in her case, as she amuses me with these wierd sayings, i'll post them

Sorry for dragging up an older thread, but my girlfriend is having a fair few slips of the tongue at the moment, and i'm sure more will come during the second and third trimester.

A prime example of this came a few days ago at her mums. "When you go up the attic can I have books of boxes please" that went down well, of course she meant box of books 😛

As soon as more come out i'll share her wisdom 😈

Titanic wasn't very believable it was too far fetched

Haha you should take him to see the new Smurfs film it's basically the same thing lot's of blue people running round yelling.

Liking the words of wisdom that people have been sharing - I recently gave up trying to teach my partner to drive because of her answer to my question
"what do we do as we approach this corner?" (at 60mph and I was driving thankfully)
she replied "just stop pressing that Go pedal"
Yes dear the car will automatically figure out how much to slow down in order to make this near 90 degree corner without any need for braking lol.

My friend's wife once applied for a job at a "Plant Hire" because she liked gardening!!!

I remember winding a girl up at work telling her there was no such word as gullible - she had the biggest grin when she came back from WH Smiths declaring that it was in the dictionary

had a conversation with my wife the other night about something she'd bought at the shops and got 20% off.

She was adamant that if she'd had bought the items separately she would have got more money off than if buying them together.

Half an hour and some very simple Maths GCSE type questions later, she finally conceded that buying 2 things separately with 20% each doesnt give you 40% off! Oh dear! 😆

The best one I heard from a woman was - " how do you go about for paying the heating in the car" :woohoo:
