That would be typical of a woman - invent a way to nag at you from a distance!
then use it to have inane conversations whilst driving the 4X4 to Tesco

Man flu isn't a pain thing, nobody feels pain from colds/flu, you just feel bunged up, run down and dopey. Now this is a normal occurance for you girls (especially at THAT time of the month) so it's no biggy when you get it, we men just aren't used to it however.

The same is true for men and pain, we're used to hitting ourselves with hammers, taking our knuckles off whilst undoing that tight bolt and generally being in pain so it's no big deal, you girls bump yourself when your doing something and we never hear the end of it.

So basically it's just down to conditioning!


I'd gladly swap this effin cold for a broken finger, havent managed to find a doctor or hospital specialising in this though!

Hang on this is getting a little sexist, so here's a little something to take your minds off things.

Read the boys one first.

Not wanting to seem biased ... didn't Marie Curie invent/discover something really important?

Spanner Man - soooo true LMAO

I wear the trousers in my house ... my girlfriend just tells me which ones to wear

Ah, but you didn't hear the background to that idea did you?

The Brantano womans husband one day said to her in a huff "You've got far too many shoes, we might as well turn the house into a shop!"

So she did, that way, she can be in a shop whilst not being far from the kitchen (sorry, had to ). Then she found that her friends wanted to buy shoes from her shop, so she opened more shops (afterall, her friends didn't want to buy HER shoes).

So the husband is a genius. He said one sentence to his wife, and he's managed to give women something to do that doesn't involve nagging their husbands half to death. Someone give that man a pint!

Right, that settled, 'scuse me, I'm off to bed, got a terrible flu...

Man flu - never had it. I get a runny nose (not fun when riding ) and painfull sinuses, but thats about it. My dad had real flu once, he was in bed for 3 days, only surfacing for xmas dinner and a go on my (then) new guitar.

She was the first to observe radioactivity I think. Look where that led too, destruction of two major cities in japan!
