Hauptmann6 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Uhg. Don't know how many times I've told the g/f and her daughter to fill up the gas tank at 1/2 tank. Because you know, reasons. But god forbid they do that because they can run it all the way down and feel like they aren't spending as much money on gas. And the gf keeps her phone on silent because she hates the ringer. So her daughter run out of gas and swears she still has some even though the damn needle on on E, then calls her mom who doesn't answer the phone because it doesn't ****ing ring. Then I get the panicked phone call to help. Got the car home and wonder wtf no one listens to the guy who you know, knows stuff and doesn't live in "It will be fine" land. Oh yeah, her car is falling apart, it's 20 years old. I told her to start saving for a new one when she got it. Guess what? AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Company I worked at had men’s and women’s restrooms in the front of the building but only a big men’s room with shower in the shop. The big one became unisex when they hired a bunch of women in the shop. The toilet policy was seat down, lid down for everyone who used the shop restroom. The women got upset because they had to touch the lid. They were okay with the men putting the seat down but all hell broke lose when they had to put the lid down. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Do you want a considered opinion or a sarcastic reply? Consider the feminine mindset is fundamentally: someday my prince will come. Females from birth to the grave, believe that whatever problem they have, whatever predicament they encounter, a man will save them, thus, they never develop or need problem-solving skills. My sister and late wife were like your relatives: no need to buy gas because there is enough, there is always enough, to get where they need to go and back again and, hey, if there isn't enough gas, father, brother, boyfriend, husband will be along to make it all better. Their prince will always come when called. Consider also that women have good reason to think this way. From very early ages, males are always there to fix their problems. We train girls and women to be dependent by being that prince that will come. A phone call or a pouty look solves a woman's problems. I suggest that we would do them a greater service by saying, No. I'm not coming. Solve the problem. Learn from experience. That is just a considered opinion. I suggest that the one and only legitimate answer is women are like that because -- they're women. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Point her to on-line videos that describe replacing a fuel filter on her model of automobile. Then mention the location of the nearest AutoZone. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huaco Kid Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 There's a lot of news about sexuality, and rape, and toxic-testosterone, and man-gapping. But did they ever look at nature? Or Mankind?

Mrs.Cicero Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 You all crack me up. I want the seat and lid BOTH down in my bathroom. (If I clean that bathroom, it's mine). You can do whatever you want with the seat and lid in your own. And I've run out of gas once in 50+ years, at night, on the interstate, in the pouring rain, before there were cell phones. I walked to the nearest gas station, borrowed their gas can, walked back, put in enough gas to get back to the gas station, drove there, filled the tank, and drove home. It was unpleasant. I am very careful to never let that happen again. And I take both vehicles (his and mine) to get oil changes regularly, because no one else around here has time for that. Mr C does have to rescue me (and the rest of the world) from my occasional homicidal crankiness by providing my tea in the mornings, and chocolate on long hikes. You should be grateful. The world would be far less pleasant if he weren't so good at caffeinating and sugaring me up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
