Fecking miserable selfish bastards (the men, that is)

No more or less than women are useless sometimes.

meditrina · 24/06/2011 14:50

I'm being particularly useless myself today.

NettieSpaghetti · 24/06/2011 14:55

Wine was feeling quite productive but one conversation with the other half about work and childcare situations and I'm ready for bed. Sad

people are useless articles sometimes. Not sure why possession of a penis makes any difference. Confused

NettieSpaghetti · 24/06/2011 14:58

Penis issue Definately makes a difference! Grin

You are unreasonable to think Men are useless sometimes. They can be useless nearly ALL the time!

SinicalSal · 24/06/2011 15:13

Everyone's a useless article sometimes, penis or no.

mrsdonkeybucketVAMOSRAFA · 24/06/2011 15:15

I think he's probably cut and strimmed it because :

It needed doing.......badly

I have refused point blank, it's Wimbledon, doan-cha-know Wink

Today is the first day this week it hasn't rained, so he had no excuse.

NettieSpaghetti · 24/06/2011 15:16

Grin amothersplace I concede the wording was incorrect!

sinicalsal I'm never completely useless myself. Grin

mrsdonkeybucketVAMOSRAFA · 24/06/2011 15:18

I'm never useless.

Except when I just can't be arsed. But that's different.

SinicalSal · 24/06/2011 15:19
