I received this in an email today.  It was labeled "for married men".  Good for a laugh, enjoy.

Uhhh...what if the wife ASKS SPECIFICALLY for a vacuum cleaner for Christmas?  I'm not feeling good here guys.  If I'm going to the doghouse, then I should have gone with the cheap-o one, but I went with a Dyson...a $400 VACUUM CLEANER!  Did I just screw the pooch...twice?!!?!?

HELP!

Come to think of it, my fiancée would absolutely love a pink vacuum cleaner. Thanks for the idea! [thumbsup]

No, you should be fine.  A Dyson is a great choice since she asked for one.

However, you're best off also getting her something additional.  It can be small and inexpensive, but something that is just for fun.

Lots of other things, but that was her big ticket item...err...maybe it was the digital camera...

The more I look at the Dyson box, the cooler it looks...and ALMOST makes me want to vacuum more!  (Noticed how I said ALMOST!) I'd really like to take it apart and see how it works!

Don't listen to her!!! She is not a normal woman, and knows not what evil depths one can sink to!


Let me run it by you a different way.


Say this year, your wife suggested you just not get her anything. "Let's not exchange gifts this year honey-I already have everything I want".

If you're fool enough to actually believe that, you'll get into trouble. See how that works? Basically she'll tell you what she wants, but it's just a gawdamned lie.

She doesn't want nothing, she wants you to show that you care about her so so so very much that you couldn't resist getting her something regardless of what she said.

This is another case of misdirection. Sure she says she wants a new vacuum, but that's because the old one sucks. Know how she knows it sucks? Because you're not doing the vacuuming!

What she really wants is diamonds, and a day at the spa, and maybe a cruise, and for you to forget that stupid bike on the weekends and vacuum.



Please let me know if you need any other things translated.


(Seriously, you need to get her a second present).
