Subject: Quit Moaning

Written By: Gabble_Ratchet on 09/02/03 at 06:11 a.m.

They say a womans work is never done? Well, perhaps if they got on with it instead of painting their toenails all day, we might see some results.

Hi Gabble

There's this really awful Australian song called "Put Another Log On The Fire" by Bill & Boyd.  I'll try and find the lyrics and post them.  You'd love it!!  The part of it I remember goes something like this:

Put another log on the fire
Cook me up some bacon and some beans
Go out to the car and change the tyre
Iron my shirt and wash my old blue jeans

Now don't I let you wash the car on Sunday.
Don't I warn you when you're getting fat ....

Getting the idea???
Cheers :D

I was thinking of the exact same song. Here are the lyrics.

Put Another Log On The Fire
(Shel Silverstein)
Put another log on the fire
Cook me up some bacon and some beans
Go out to the car and change the tyre
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans
Fill my pipe and then go fetch my slippers
And boil me up another pot of tea
Then put another log on the fire, babe
And come and tell me why you're leaving me

Don't I let you wash the car on Sunday
Don't I warn you when you're getting fat
Ain't I gonna take you fishing with me some day
You know a man can't love a woman more than that
Ain't I always nice to your kid sister
And don't I take her driving every night
Come and sit here by my feet 'cos' I love you when you're sweet
And you know it isn't feminine to fight

Repeat 1

(as sung by Iain MacKintosh)



As for you Gabble, well, lets just say that I refuse to have the battle of the wits with someone who is unarmed.

Well, thanks for all the household tips, Gabbo. Since we're both stereotypes, perhaps I could give you some hints in return:
1. Come back from the pub earlier than 9PM.
2. Don't wipe your @rse on the shower curtain.
3. Don't switch off all other brain activity whilst watching football.
4. Engage in emotional discussions once in a while.
5. Yes, don't worry, two inches is well above the national average.
6. Ask before bringing your mates from the pub round.
7. There are many ways to get promoted, and gawping down the secretary's shirt is not exactly the best one.
8. No one wants to hear about your golf game.
9. You do not need beer to survive.
10. You might benefit from learning to be tactful.

Thanks for being so much help to me! I hope I've helped you too!

It may surprise you to find out that all this started out very tongue in cheek and certainly not designed to offend anyone.

I think this sort of thread shows that Chucky needs to get some more smilies.

This one needs a tongue-in-cheek smiley at the beginning.

We could also do with a sheepish grin at times.

How about one that combines the shocked and huh smilies to mean WTF!

I think the whole thing was very funny. I say stuff like that to my girlfriend especially things like 'If I didn't go out with you, headache tablets would go out of business.' She has a crack at me and we're laughing.

It's about laughing at ourselves as well as each other. Though you have to watch out for the British at least. We are quite capable of saying humourous things without giving indications.  ;)

Most of us... My sister just shouts obscenities every so often and somehow finds them funny.
But you're right, this has been a great laugh. Although I prefer debates, this is still good fun.

Heeeey, we should have a debate here.

Nothing like a good mass-debate.

Let's give this a rest, eh? We'll obviously never come to any one conclusion about this. And you can't apply a single thing to all members of each gender, surely?
So let's just say that everyone's equal.




Except we can have multiple o*****s.
