I tried internet dating for a while & it wasn't pleasurable for me. I know others it worked out great for. I just decided I didn't care anymore & I'd stay single.. ANYWAY...

I had a date with this guy who actually got angry over the way I pronounced caramel. I said Karr-uh-mel. He said " It's NOT Karr-uh-mel! It's Kar-muhl!"
I told him it was pronounced 2 ways and I preferred to say Karr-uh-mel. That made him nuts and he said " You're from Texas you know damn well it's
Kar-muhl !
And yes I know most folks in Texas say Kar-muhl..but I like the way Karr-uh-mel sounds in the 3 syllable. What I found very revealing was his urgent need to control ONE WORD in my vocabulary.
It was certainly what I consider the dumbest argument in my life.
Anyway , that was our last date ;)

What was the subject of your dumbest argument OFFLINE?

Caramel- it just pisses some people off *snicker*
 

I don't recall the dumbest argument but we used to have a joke to describe dinners with hubby's family..." Do penguins have teeth?". Every time we got everyone together, one of his siblings would pose a rhetorical question. From there the fur would start to fly and someone would eventually storm from the table. So the penguin comment was code for this isn't worth going nuts about.
 
My younger siblings discuss my senility it is a hot topic of conversation!:D
 

Arguing over whether Clinton should have resigned as president during the Monica thing. I thought that he should and I was surprised to find out that so many women thought that he shouldn't...

hahaha. My kids always try to use that on me when we're discussing past events. Once I got mad and yelled " Oh shut up Sabrina! I'm NOT senile dammit!" She answered me with " My name is Mary"
I didn't fare so well that time LOL

There is always an ongoing argument about me not wanting to drive or travel and that I am not a spontaneous person. What they don't seem to understand is that I am a very nervous driver with no sense of direction which makes me very uncomfortable. As far as traveling, We have driven cross country 3 times which I did enjoy along with numerous other trips, also visiting them on a regular basis. Hubby drives. They don't understand that I am extremely happy and satisfied with my life, my home, and the area in which I live. I am always busy with projects around the house,gardening, and host of other things. Sometimes I look at the clock and wonder where the time has gone.I just wish they would respect that.

Would you like to start a club? I also have no sense of direction and can't find my way out of a paper bag.
