Laugh for a Monday

A wife asks her husband,
"Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk,
And if they have avocados, get 6."
A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.
The wife asks him, "Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?"
He replied, "They had avocados."

This made me laugh out loud because something like it has happened at my house.

Or I wanted to try something I wasn't sure about and asked Ed to get one and he came home with 8 because they were on sale and I didn't like whatever it was and threw everything out eventually. As for the avocado story, it's computer logic thinking -- no human input.

It's always a crapshoot sending them shopping, almost worth it to see how they interpret the list.

Reminds me of years ago when I'd give him a shopping list and it was always fun to see what he'd come home with.

I bet Mike gets it.

I have to try it on you-know and see if he gets it.

Makes perfect sense to me!!!!

It was described in the email as an illustration of how men think, I guess that was right.

One of our incidents had to do with those gallon size cans of peaches.

I can see this in my future!!

It's almost worth volunteering to shop just to see what happens.

Some men use the left side of their brains. Some men use the right side of their brains and some men don't seem to have a brain. Been there, done that too many times to count.

Looking back, it's funny, at the time it was 'interesting.'

Show it to Mike and see if he gets it.

reply by troutbend on Sept 24, 2012 10:08 PM ()

Don't feel bad. I had to give it a lot of thought and got it almost by accident.
"Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk,
And if they have avocados, get 6 cartons of milk."

Must be typical husband/wife communication. Not that it's ever happened at our house...

comment by steve on Sept 24, 2012 10:12 AM ()

Yeah, I'll bet.
