Ditter43 10-10-2010 06:14 AM

I guess I would call that tit for tat! I have put a lot of jokes on here about the stupid things men do! :-D

dakotamaid 10-10-2010 06:15 AM

You have to look at it from his point of view!! These are things they think are frustrating about us ladies and we have our list of what is frustrating about our men. LOL, both sexes have VAST differences. Have you ever read Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus? Great read.

T-Bones mom 10-10-2010 06:15 AM

You have got to admit we all fit into a couple of those catagories. I fit into more than one. I will admit it here but never to my husband. LOL

Teacup 10-10-2010 06:17 AM

OK, I'll admit I could qualify for two of the classes...I won't say which! And I could create a list of 12 classes for men pretty easily!

maine ladybug 10-10-2010 06:17 AM

And your husband is still alive?

cjomomma 10-10-2010 06:27 AM

I will admit I fit into a couple of those catagories. LOL. Nothing wrong with the men getting back at us women.

patricej 10-10-2010 06:31 AM

i can see i'm going to be very busy for a while.

can somebody please help me lift my purse so i can head to walmart in search of that self-levitating curling iron?

:mrgreen:

Mimito2 10-10-2010 06:35 AM

I came up with an easy fix for the toilet seat. I put both lids down. He sure got my "point" when he plopped down in the middle of the night in the dark. lol

Could you smack him once for me too?

ptquilts 10-10-2010 08:38 AM

that was funny! DH and I have solved the toilet lid problem - people who want it up put it up, and people who want it down, put it down.

ptquilts 10-10-2010 08:40 AM

I want an adjunct to Class 4

How much smaller could your purse be if you weren't carrying around all the junk your husband does not want to carry himself.

Works for us -

This is actually a parody of the "Classes for Men" that was going around -

Some battles just aren't worth fighting - which way to put the toilet paper - I'm just glad there is some within reach when needed!

I just check to see which way the toilet seat is - as long as it's clean and dry - I'm okay with it - and put it the way I want/need it. (I've been to many restrooms where the "ladies" sprinkled)

If we want to dish it out to the guys - guess we better be prepared to get some of it back.

grammiepamie 10-10-2010 09:13 AM

There is something genetically wrong with all men. One of these days, maybe not in our lifetime, a scientist or Doctor will discover this gene and remove it from each and every one of the male species, and then life will be more enjoyable. LOL LOL LOL LOL

It's me that has trouble finding things in the refrigerator :|

DH falls asleep holding that TV remote control!

MadQuilter 10-10-2010 10:35 AM

Since I am actually guilty of some of these, I do see how it may be irritating to thy partner. Hence I recommend adding another class, simply called "Deal with it!" lol

Quiltforme 10-10-2010 10:39 AM

NO kidding my husband has 3 wallets and a ring of keys that would be considered a weapon and I am supposed to carry this around!!

Scientists have discovered that there is only one thing wrong with men -- the Y chromosome.

amma 10-10-2010 10:58 AM

LMBO Love the original joke, AND all of the replies :D:D:D

nonnie 10-10-2010 11:51 AM

This is great from both sides, and why did I think it was only my husband that did half that stuff. Thanks for letting me know it a man thing not just a Mike thing.
Plus I'm guilty of a few on the first list also.

Beffy_Boo 10-10-2010 03:38 PM

So, uh, do you need bail money or help hiding the body? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Connie Merritt 10-12-2010 04:48 AM

Oh dear, do you think, for once, they tagged us. Well, at least they take notice of us. So all is not lost. Thanks for sharing this. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, now I am going up to put my "stuff" away. Thanks for the incentive

damaquilts 10-12-2010 07:13 AM

I just made my life simple. Toilet seat is always down , roll always going the correct way.(no man in the house anymore) I don't have to parallel park anywhere I go. I stay out of the city. lol No one asks me to find anything for them although I probably would tell them I have enough trouble finding things for my self.Hate to shop don't use a curling iron. hmm guess I am a weird female. but thats OK And most of the stuff in my purse is probably for dogs. I have to carry their meds, coats and belly bands etc to adoptions.

Be careful on your way down the stairs.

sewbaby 10-12-2010 11:21 AM

Life requires a sense of humor, sometimes its required to just live with the opposite sex. that was funny, you should see some of the stuff my husband sends me on my phone, and yes I could use a couple of classes myself. How to pass a yard sale or thrift shop in three easy steps!!!

MSandy 10-12-2010 03:10 PM

At least he has a sense of humor.
