I would have brought home a 12 pack of beer for me and a dozen roses for her, she'd see the flowers and forgive me and I'd be happy drinking my beer...
But what about the milk and eggs for breakfast?
This should be very clear to all male readers, but
female readers may need to read it several times
This is a story which is perfectly logical to all males:
A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me
and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get 6."
A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.
The wife asks him, "Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?"
He replied, "They had eggs."
(I'm sure you're going back to read this again -
- as this is the root of most marriage problems!!)
I don't get it. Why did the wife want 6 cartons of milk only if the grocer had eggs?
If the grocer had eggs it meant that the milk was fresh... obviously. It's the same reason that women have 6 different kinds of mascara.
I know. I don't understand it either but if I pretend to, I have a better chance of gettin' breakfast in the morning.
I would have brought back 1 milk and 6 cartons of eggs.
