My wife said no!

Hey, are you busy this weekend? I could use your help, ha ha ha. Excellent points. I need to regroup and try again later this week. Boy, rough crowd here but I asked. Some of the responses are pretty funny but all hit the mark. What I am going to try and make her understand is that my 86' Rx7 is going to get more and more costlier to keep on the road. I had a new clutch put in 2 years ago ($800 bucks) and a new exhaust system last year ($400 bucks) and there will be more. When I slid into the seat of that red Z, I knew it was me. The dealer tried to talk me into a cheaper 2 door Altima coupe as a substitute and I said no. Then they tried to sell me a 2008 RX8. I have had 6 Rx7's and the Z is closer to a real sports car and, like I said, it is me. For those who have responded, thanks, I owe you. As far as an update, I owe you that too. Let me work on how to approach this over the week and I will get back with you hopefully with my genitalia restored.

Glad you took it in good humor.....

Show her where you are on the RX7 repair curve. Might be a little more ammo for ya. Good luck!

If you knew you would always be weaker than 50% of the population no matter what you did, and thus subject to what they wanted physically, how funny would that be to you?

Seriously - I'm sure it's supposed to be a joke, but that kind of comment sucks. It sucks if you want women to feel comfortable on this site, and it sucks to all the loser guys who think they are cool because they can beat up on a woman.

I call unfunny.

Why? I hope she'd do the same thing to me if I tried to tell her what to do with her own hard earned money, and I'd deserve it too.

Caravanshaka · 09-15-2009, 01:21 PM

I figured it was joke, but I guess it wasn't.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think we should be supporting spousal abuse here...

It is a joke. I don't know you took any of this seriously. The point is that if I did something like that its a ******** move and I deserve for her to get angry at me or something if I told her what to do with her money.

Easier to understand?

English is apparently hard... But from what I got out that, you are saying that if your wife (or anyone for that matter) tells you what you should or shouldn't do with your money... its okay to assault them.

You don't joke about abusing women!

...Go back to your trailer

Quite a "partnership" you have there......
