A plea to the ladies

[bobmcfc]

Can all the ladies please please start calling their friends and family more often for a general chit chat, because I am sure I speak for others when I say "we don't want to hear about most of the stuff you are talking about", and I am positive you must be getting a little bit annoyed with us randomly getting up out of our chairs and walking out of the room when you are waffling on.
I thank you all in advance for taking notice.

You actually let her touch the remote

She knows better but sometimes makes her move when I leave the room and leave it on some type of science educational program.

Mine has had to switch from repeating her whole day at work, to repeating a whole day at work that happened ages ago. I'm starting to hope I catch covid tbh. If not I might just improvise a ventilator with an old aquarium filter and anesthetise myself with drink.

I remember back in the day when I was just starting seeing my ex wife. We were in her car and she started telling a series of stories about her work. Now I have a very strict, never wavering rule, unless the story is very funny or there's Shagging in it, I glaze over, or worse, and more usual, angry that I had to endure it.

As she prattled on, I heard myself say,. Can I tell you something,
Yes
I don't give a fuck about anybody in anybody's work, what happened to them.at Asda, how they talked shite a meeting or anything really.
Audible pause.

You're a cheeky ****.

No, I just don't want to know, unless and I.gave her my rules.

She sat for a minute, then laughed.

And that was the last I ever heard about her work unless my rules were met
Same deal with me and my work.

I suppose it counts as 'essential travel' within govt advice if fucking off in the car stops you going mental or killing someone?

We did christmas dinner at our place one year. Me, my mum, wife, two sisters and niece. At one point I got up from the table, went out to the shed and came back in and sat down wearing a pair of these:

my family consists of me, wife, sister, wifes sister, daughter, 4 nieces and a nephew. I hear you brother

My condolences mate. Thankfully both my sisters have a man now and one sister even gave us a nephew.

I never talk about work and when I’ve had a bird and they ask me about my day at work and I say “yeah it was work, work’s work innit? I’m at home now” they think you’re being funny with them or in a mood with them. When I’m not, I just never talk about work outside of work. I’ve got mates who I’ve known for 25 years and I don’t know what they do for a living. Anyone starts talking about work on a night out with the lads and someone will pipe up with “what you talking about work for you boring ****?”

And if women don’t think you’re being funny or in a mood they decide that they’ll tell me all about their day at work. My lips stay firmly shut and I completely glaze over or just try and change the subject.

I have never and will never give a shit about anyone’s day in work. It’s as bad as hearing about someone’s dream. Neither of them have anything to do with real life and are both things I don’t miss now I’m single!
