And I bet you, that you don’t suffer from hay fever, cut lawn or any of those kinds of allergies huh? Because your body was exposed to larger than normal amounts of that as compared to you actually playing outside with drier machine dried clothes.

Oh, you're completely wrong. I took allergy shots from the time I was 3 until I was 16. When I was tested at 3, they said I was allergic to dust, mold, leaves, pollen, pretty much everything you can't get away from. But I still ran through the woods, built dams in the creek, played with BB guns, and spent most of my time outside.

Hmm, interesting. Now I wonder why you no longer needed the shots at 16ish.

Because modern science came out with prescription drugs like Claritin, and my Dr knew that once I started driving, I was not going to go on my own to get a shot. Now I use OTC stuff, when needed. But, my allergy specialist did once say the shot probably kept me from developing asthma as a kid.

As a newlywed, Fins made me LOL....she brought up something like 3 months after we met that I swear it came from out of no where. I also was in the dog house the other night....

Long story short, we both work and have weird hours. When she comes home she usually starts cooking. I get home not to much after she begins and she ALWAYS apologizes for not having dinner ready (I seriously could care less) I tell her all the time it's ok it doesn't matter.....well on Monday I had a shit ass day, came home tired and hungry but in a joking mood. Well I walked in, said hey babe and asked if dinner was ready in a completely joking manor because she always apologizes.....WHOOO that did not go over well!

Lesson learned :P

It's summer time...you should be manning the grill.

My need for allergy shots did a lot for me. I got them once a week at a place 8 miles from home. At 12 years of age I finally learned to ride a bike and managed in a couple of months to get permission to ride to the place every week with a friend (there had to be two of us).

This started years of daily bike rides and weekly rides of twenty to fifty miles.

As for the allergies, once I had kids who sniffed as much as I did, I wondered how IN HELL my teachers put up with the constant irritating noise!

For me it's zyrtec.

I've never in my life seen a woman's mouth shut during a fight. Especially not in a good way. No matter what defense you use, she always has something that you don't remember, from 15 years ago, ready to pull out and hit you with. You can't defend against it because you can't even remember if it's correct, or if it even happened. But she has all the details about it, like Rainman recalling an underwear shopping trip to Kmart.

Like when a woman walks up to the guy and slaps him- he's stunned and asks "What was that for?". With her hands on her hips, she sternly says "I think you know!".
My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."

I've found changing up from time to time and only using something when my allergies are acting up works better than taking the same thing every day. The new one, xyzal has been pretty impressive. But don't take it if you have anything to do besides sleep for a few hours

That my friend, is only the first of thousands......

You haven't even begun with the ones where these is no right answer.

Like my morning today. I tubbed my 2 year old (who's potty training) last night and put her pajamas on. Half hour later, wife goes to put her to bed.

Guess who took her out of her bed this morning with shit all over the place because wifey forgot to put a damn diaper on her!!

So pissed, but it was my fault because I put her in pajamas.....geesh.

I have to say, your wife is right on this one. Why would you put her pajamas on, then undress her to put a diaper on and redress her? Buy flowers on your way home today

Because she wasn't going to bed for an hour or so afterwards and we're getting her used to underwear. She's potty training and every night since she's been born we've put a fresh diaper on before bed.

Dr. Phil says be right or be married. Apparently happy isn't on his radar.


Yeah, lippa, you couldn't have done anything right except to check for a diaper before you went to bed. On your daughter, that is.

Put a diaper on her too early, you're stymieing* her potty training. Don't put a diaper on her too early, you're hands are in shit.

Ah, yes, I remember the days of sitting and bringing my hand up to my face, only to realize I had to reduce the amount of brown under my fingernails.....


*The spell check actually liked that!

Well, not for at least fifteen years, and back then, never by choice (here could follow, appropriate to this thread, a discussion of what married men watch on TV that they don't choose to watch on TV). Personally, I'm surprised anyone is still watching him. That doesn't mean that he might not have said something interesting one day.
