Ed in SoDak Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 Mission accomplished, here I sit waiting for Sandy to ask the TI for help. She says it's cheating! So I sez to her, well, how come it's OK when I offer a suggestion myself? But that's different, she declares. I still say a couple bucks a day to Zuckerberg that he don't need adds up. Maybe I'll run it in stealth mode. What she don't know won't hurt me! JK, honey! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there's some weird buffer between male and female speak that I haven't wrapped my head around yet. And that's nearly 28 years of marriage thus far. Here's a cut/paste from my facebook status just a few days ago to illustrate... Daniela: You're being a poopie head. Me: I'm being a shit head? Daniela: That's not what I said.

Omega-TI Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Yeah, there's some weird buffer between male and female speak that I haven't wrapped my head around yet. And that's nearly 28 years of marriage thus far. Here's a cut/paste from my facebook status just a few days ago to illustrate... With women, many guys have learned to factor for 'emotional weight' attached to the word as well as the severity of facial expression and vocal inflection along with the specific usage of the word. This would make a fascinating study for an Artificial Intelligence project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Any woman: "Mister Omega, are you implying my intelligence is artificial? WELL!" Besides, we already have such a device. -Ed OH YEAH! This one is true too! Selective hearing combined with selective INTERPRETATION leading to an emotional outburst when the subject wrongly assumes intent based on their own faulty comprehension.

Omega-TI Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 ...adding to my previous response... Any attempt to clarify or explain 'true meaning' will just trip the 'what do you think I stupid' switch or the 'you think I'm wrong' switch leading to.... incidents too varied to describe.

+Ksarul Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 (edited) Mine always follows a simple fault tree: Is something wrong? Yes. Is it my husband's fault? Yes. Castigate him. No. Is it My fault? No. Blame it on husband and castigate him. Yes. Go to No. No. Find something to blame on husband and castigate him.
