Off topic - a bit of fun

[grahoom]

I by shirts that don't need ironing (or just hang about in dark clubs)

i was at a house party recently and this girl seemed mystified that i was wearing a shirt. - she said to me

"must be a right pain having to iron your shirt's all the time"

"ummm, nope, i dont iron my shirts"

 

[Swampy Matt]

The course i would suggest for most women would be:

Washing white shirts and sports kit - how not to turn them pink.

I used to be quite please when my GF offered to wash my stuff for me, but i've discovered that in the long run its just easier for me to do it right the first time!

and regarding ironing of shirts - buy linen - lasts longer than cotton, warmer (in the cold) and cooler (in the hot weather) than cotton and if you do iron it, its wrinkled within minutes, so why bother ironing in the first place!

Now you see, I have it down to a fine art... my bloke's shirts go to a little old lady down the road who willingly gives up 3 hours of her Sunday afternoon to iron about 200 of his shirts for a mere £10 - thus supplementing her meagre pension and keeping the local economy afloat ! She insists she loves ironing - therefore keeping everyone happy !

Meanwhile I scoff choccies and watch desperate housewives ! Hee Hee

gail - does your bloke really have 200 shirts!!!!!!!!!!! there's only 7 days in the week.

If you really want to learn how too look after kit (clothes, etc) find a little old lady or an old soldier from Monty's Army. My Grandparents taught me how to iron, darn, hand wash, polish and generally keep clothes in good condition - they had to do it, they couldn't just nip to matalan/tk max/(insert local cheepo clothes shop here) and get five t-shirts for £3.

As a result i can if necessary turn myself out quite nicely when required. I just prefer to be scruffy

I also feel that if a woman wants a bloke to be trained in supportive shopping, its only fair that she learn to stick to one brand of shampoo, soap, etc. No one needs 20 assorted bottles perched about the bathroom! It would also be nice if shoes could be chosen for practicallity rather than just looking nice...what's the point of a pretty pair of shoes that require you to carry a spare set to drive in...or walk in...or stand in

He he... and pockets! They don't have pockets! How can you survive without?

they dont need them, they always know that their bloke will have plenty of pockets.

And they know you will have spare jumper/waterproof, on your back if not carried!

I have same size feet as my wife, several times she has pinched my shoes to walk home in, I dont look cute in heels!

Stop right there! You don't mean shopping! You don't know what shopping is! Female folk think that shopping is going around every single shop in existence, trying on their entire range, and rejecting it. It's not! Shopping is when you go to a shop, buy something that looks good. And it takes only 10 MINUTES TO DO!

My sisters trained me for shopping trips with a future girlfriend. It sort of worked but once women get in packs the others don't like a guy around when they are buying bras.

 

[stoddy]

speak to STOTRE

if shopping was an olympic sport, his wife would be a gold medalist

went to Andorra, spent 1 hour in a womens shop called MANGO??? left with Sweet F A!!!

I would rather be sat in a trench facing the might of the Chinese Army, than going shopping with women

I believe that shopping with women was one of the more gruesome techniques used by Saddam Hussien to extract information from people that he really didn't like

...why do you think Guantanamo Bay camp has it's own shops? It's not just for the soldiers off-duty you know...

I actually enjoy shopping with my girlfriend. it's just the endless waiting outside the girl's changing rooms that I hate. Except for the ones with the knackered curtains...........

She has perfected the art of shopping. It involves spaending all day trying stuff on, then selecting certain items to take home to try on a few more times in front of the mirror. Then take them back the next day and get a refund. Repeat until you've been through the entire range... It was when we went to Oxford Street Top Shop, and the girl behind the till knew her by name that I told her she had a problem! Funny how she doesn't think twice about spending £100 on a pair of pointy shoes that she can't even stand in yet will moan if I buy milk form the corner shop as it's 2p cheaper in the supermarket with the huge queues....

Women eh? Well at leats I get the last word in every argument........



....."Yes dear..."

YOU ARE NOT ALONE, it just means that you have higher tolerance levles to most.

This would make both of you highly qaulified to be super spyes, which means that you are highly suceptible to women in skimpy kit
