Don't know where you find those Rufus, but they are excellent! Each one, on it's own, will win you a night on the couch if that happens in your house.

I am particularly partial to the one pertaining to paint colors -- I take the greatest of pains to avoid having to pick between the 13 "colors" of white, and simply inform my better 1/2 to simply pick whatever makes her happy.

Then I go paint.........

13 "colors" of white? Really?
And how many shades of black do there be?
Another part of my poor eye sight, I guess.

There are probably more - stroll down the paint aisle at HD or Lowes.....

And how many shades of black do there be?

Well, there are bottles of Grimy Black, Steam Black, Tarnished Black, and Oily Black in my workshop,

The scene became instantly iconic, a permanent part of our culture. I remembered it from the first time I saw it as a youth.

Excellent movie and in our DVD collection. Sort of like having comfort food.

The toilet seat was pretty good too! But, I remember trying a similar phase decades ago and it didn't go over very well. Can't imagine what sitting down into cold toilet water feels like (seat up), but by the reaction I got it must be pretty bad.

Yes, but, don't we all watch where we are about to put our hynies?

Probably in almost all instances, but at 4 am when one is notified by Mother Nature that one is to be struck by an episode of force majeure in the immediate............you might not.

Ok. Fair enough. I must admit, I only fell in once in my whole life, but it was definitely a wake-up moment. And memorable.

Oh? How often does a man not look, before he sits? In 58 years, I can't remember one time. And how often have I complained that a female left the seat DOWN! I know the situation, and I have no desire to be burdensome or problematic, so I just go along with expectations. But if I had a little girl who said something about the toilet seat position - well, she'd learn real fast never to do that again.

I don't know what that means. I don't get the flow of any "logic" or reasoning in it. Would you mind explaining further, Roy?
