Husband Does the Shopping



This is a story which is perfectly logical to all
males:


A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go
shopping for me and buy one carton of milk? And if they
have avocados, get six."


A short time later the husband comes back with six
cartons of milk.


The wife asks him, "Why did you buy six cartons of
milk?"


He replied, "They had avocados".


If you're a female I'm sure you're going back to
read this again! Males will get it the first time.

You are correct! I read it and understood it immediately. I told it to my wife and had to repeat it four times before she got it.

my wife is still going "I don't understand..."

Years ago I worked in a shop where we also did heating + A.C. One day the parts runner mentions that he has to run into town to pick up a 5 ton compressor for a change out.The secretary says "Jack how are you going to haul a 5 ton compressor in a 1/2 ton pickup?" They are definately on a different wavelength.

Norman I cam out of the Heating and A/C field so I know what you mean. We had a dispatcure who had nothing between her ears. I needed an 24in pipe wrench one day called her and asked her to page the other service men and ask for a 24in left handed pipe wrench. Will I have been retired 3yrs now and the guys are still talking about that.

I had to splain to my wife too!

Momma is sick in bed and the kiddos are hungry so the shopping must be done. Dad is famously inadequate where groceries and the kitchen are concerned. Nevertheless, being a manly man he takes the job and shopping list numbered #1 to #12. Off with himself and upon his return the car bulges with bagged vittles. Proudly he brings it all in -- (1) garlic, (2) cabbages, (3) pounds of rice, (4) hams, (5) pounds of butter, (6) loaves of bread, (7) boxes of 1-qt freezer bags, (8) whole fryer chickens, (9) dozen large eggs, (10) packs of diapers/nappies, (11) oranges [He ate one out of the bag of a dozen], and (12) gallons of milk!! It's okay, she'll explain it to you. :-)

My wife is still shakine her head wondering if this is supposed to be funny!

Only took reading it twice for wife to pick up on it...Gave a very exasperated yeah…

Yea I had a lady go to 3 differant part stores looking for a muffler belt for her car.

I knew all the clerks at the parts stores.

I didn't like her.

KPH,yeah the same secretary wrote out our work orders in the morning.Mine said "A.C. want run." One of the other service tecks. said,no wonder she has 5 kids,she does'nt know the difference between want + won't.
