Things I have learned since living with boys

Housies at Halfway Crooks

  • they drink a lot of juice.
  • they get mad when you hook up with their friends.
  • they are ordinarily incapable of organising anything more complicated than a home-delivered pizza, but can fashion a fish tank from an abandoned computer monitor they discovered on the street or prepare an impressive variety of liquor-filled frozen Easter eggs in just a few moments.
  • if you have a party, they will get completely blind and then pass out in their bedrooms while you are left to make sure nobody steals the TV or starts a fire.
  • they can yell awful, psychologically-damaging things at each other, sit in stormy silence for 45 seconds, and then start chatting again normally as if nothing ever happened.
  • when you get dumped and wake them up with your crying, they are pretty useless and will generally just pat you on the back and tell you analogies about boats to try and put things in perspective for you. I guess that still helps though.
  • they eat a lot of cereal.

PS. Why is it that girls can’t get over their arguments as lighting fast as boys. I’m clearly not the only one who’s noticed.

They also have no idea what a towel Rail is in the bathroom.

And when they get mad at you for hooking up with their friends its apparently ok for them to hook up with YOUR friends though

Apparently all friends, family members and pets are out of the equation.

I argue like a man evidently.

They are also incapable of understanding that asking them to put the bins out doesn’t negate any other housework requests for the week.

OMG! That guy in the middle looks like Julian Cole but with a bad haircut. ;-)
