Default probably won't be funny to anyone else
IM exchange with my husband after we decided to do take out Chinese tonight.

Me: My druthers for dinner would be orange beef.
Him: Ok whatever.
Me: Up for negotiation.
Him: Ok whatever.
Me: Dont you know that if you are a Nice Guy chicks wont want to screw you?
Him: **** you, *****.
Me: Oh. Ok. Wanna bang?
Him: Damn. That DOES work!

Is that manning up?

Priceless.

I am completely ignorant as to your marital "dialect". In our house the term "whatever" tends to be a buzz kill to the person hearing it.

By you ... yes.

It's only manning up if you order more spicy Szechuan ... although the orange beef is nice ...

And yes, I thought that exchange was funny.


School vacation. Took kids and ex out to dinner and movie last night. Took the kids to a Chinese restaurant that they had seen on a kid's PBS show. They were over the moon. As a result of watching said show ... they also wanted to try sushi.

Watching them pick apart a cucumber maki and eating boiled rice with chopsticks was priceless entertainment ... for all of us.

Wonderful dinner, fun, family movie. Didn't get laid. Just like being married

Thanks VT, thanks a lot. Didn't work. I'll be stopping by the florist and chocolate shops on the way home. Guess I should have prefaced it with something first.

Great text!

Hubby can't text due to TBI or e-mail well for that matter. So our conversations are in-person or on the phone - would love to get a text like that!
