    A spot of female logic

    Decorating spare room for some Christmas guests.

    Wife was painting skirting boards where I had carefully put masking tape all along the edge of the fitted carpet. Afterwards she started removing the tape.

    Me: You haven't done right to the bottom edge in a lot of places, I can still see green.

    Missus: That's ok, we can touch those bits up later.

      Female logic? Contradiction in terms?

          Did "female logic" appear in the Oxymoron thread a while back??
          If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.

              As I posted in an earlier thread

              My wife seems to think she has a more logical thought process than me. My argument is that I work in IT and have a degree in maths. Most of what I do is driven by logic. The problem is that her logic fails to grasp it. That is, her basic logic deems my superior logic to be illogical. Which is why I win. Logical really!
              Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

              I preferred version 1!

                    I’ve been trying to explain how thermostats work for years, I still keep finding them turned up to maximum because according to her this will heat the rooms faster.
                    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
