| Backyard philosophy over a cold beer |
"What deep
thinkers men are...I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so
I sat down and had a cold beer. The day was really quite
beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.
My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing and I said
"nothing". The reason I said that instead of saying
"just thinking" is because she would have said
"about what". At that point I would have to explain
that men are deep thinkers about various topics which would
lead to other questions.
Finally I thought
about an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than
getting kicked in the nuts? Women always maintain that giving
birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the
nuts.
Well, after
another beer, and some heavy deductive thinking, I have come
up with the answer to that question. Getting kicked in the
nuts is more painful than having a baby; and here is the
reason for my conclusion. A year or so after giving birth, a
woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another
child."
On the other
hand, you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would
like another kick in the nuts."
I rest my case.
Time for another
beer."
