Got Defensive? Much?

 

[Joz]

as I sit here waiting for the wife to come in and make the dinner.

You have nothing you can grab to hold you over? Has your wife been working all day? There's nothing you can do to help out and speed dinner along?

 

[The ClayTaurus]

Roomy cracks me the shit up.

 

[Joz]

Yes she's been to work, so have I, but she's a woman and where I come from they make the dinner.
I suppose I could grab a snack, but she has just walked through the door, so theres no point now, besides I wouldn't want to ruin any plans she may have for dinner by making something else for myself, I couldn't eat 2 dinners

Actually she's just asked me why I didn't get my own dinner she's preparing it as I type.

I am aware that fixing the meals has been "women's work' in the past. But times have changed. Your wife has worked all day. And yes, so have you, but you are stronger, physically. A little help never hurts.

Better check if she's got your slippers warming by the fire...

Yo Tambien!

He brings some needed levity to the board. You can't do it all, Clay.

 

[Abbey Normal]

Roomy kids. The truth is, he just walked in the door, and is rushing to make his lovely wife's dinner.

 

[Joz]

Better check if she's got your slippers warming by the fire...

Don't forget the pipe & the newspaper.

 

[The ClayTaurus]

Don't forget the pipe & the newspaper.

I see MM keeps you in line quite well. Good for him. You've only got about an hour until dinner needs to be served. Run along now!

In the dishwasher? Sweetie, that's your job. Besides, I'm not even done drinking it yet. Come back in 20. :fifty:

Everybody Ought to Have a Maid
From A Funny thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Everybody ought to have a working girl,
Everybody ought to have a lurking girl
To putter around the house.
Everybody ought to have a maid,
Everybody ought to have a menial
Consistantly congenial
And quieter than a mouse.
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delicious,
Tidying up the dishes,
Neat as a pin.
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delightful,
Sweeping out,
Sleeping in.

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Someone who you hire when you're short of help
To offer you the sort of help
You never get from a spouse:
Fluttering up the stairway,
Shuttering up the windows,
Cluttering up the bedroom,
Buttering up the master,
Puttering all around the house!
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delicious,
Tidying up the dishes,
Neat as a pin.
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delightful,
Sweeping out,
Sleeping in.

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Someone who in fetching you your slipper will
Be winsome as a whipporwill
And graceful as a grouse:
Skittering down the hallway,
Flittering through the parlor,
Tittering in the pantry,
Littering up the bedroom--


Twittering all around the house!

A maid!
Everybody ought to have a maid,
Everybody ought to have a serving-girl,
A loyal and unswerving girl,
To putter around the house.
Oh, oh,

Think of her at the dustbin,
'Specially when she's just been
Traipsing about.

Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delightful,

Living in,

Giving out.

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Daintily collecting bits of paper n' strings,
Appealing in her apron strings
And graceful as a grouse.

Pattering through the attic,
Chattering in the cellar,
Clattering in the kitchen,
Flattering in the bedroom,
Puttering all around the house!
The house!

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Someone who's efficient and reliable,
Obedient and pliable,
And quieter than a mouse!
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be so nimble,
Fiddling with her thimble,
Mending her gown.
Oh, oh, wouldn't she be delightful,

Cleaning up,
Leaning down.

Everybody ought to have a maid,
Someone who'll be busy as a bumblebee
And even if you grumble, be
As graceful as a grouse.

Wriggling in the anteroom,
Jiggling in the dining room,
Giggling in the living room,
Wiggling in the other rooms,
Puttering all around the house!
The house!
