Thursday Special ~ Saying what you see
A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror.
She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband, ‘I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.’
The husband replies, ‘Your eyesight’s damn near perfect.
And then the fight started…..

This one’s true:
“Well Kathleen, that was a wonderful meal” the visitor complimented my mother.
” I agree,” said Bert (my father),” I taught her everything she knows about cooking!”
The fight started later……

Obviously she’s a little self-conscious…

Grannymar,
I went to the doctor the other day and when I got home my husband asked how everything was.
I told him the doctor said I was in exceptional shape for a woman my age.
Then he said,”Oh, really , what did he say about that big ass of yours?”
I said.”He never mentioned your name.”

You did it again, Nancy. My day has started laughing at two jokes - Grannymar’s and yours. I don’t know where you get them, but they make my day. Thanks to both of you.

@Mike - Fistycuffs more than a note I think.
@Primal - Glad to oblige.
@Magpie - I often heard comments like that from my own father.
@ChrisD - What gives you that impression?
@Nancy - Once again, it’s a winner!
@Darlene - We all need a laugh a day.

Hi Sixty
Don’t you go saying things like that to (your) Nancy.

At least he was honest.

It’s virtually impossible to pay Jenny any compliments because she’s so self-critical (like most women) and never believes me. I can praise everything about her and all she says is “What are you after?”

Awesome! ROFL!

@JD - I like honesty, alas not all women do!
@Nick - It depends when and how you pay the compliments.
@Deborah -

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked,’Do you know her?’
‘Yes,’ I sighed, ‘She’s my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right
after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn’t been sober since.’
‘My God!’ says my wife, ‘Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?’
And then the fight started…..
