Interpreting Wife-Speak

The cartoon above immediately reminded me of the hilarious series of “Doghouse” videos made by J.C. Penney about ten years ago. Do go find them.
 
All these are so relatable. And I keep thinking about those "And that's how the fight started" jokes.

My wife sat down beside me on the couch as I was channel surfing with the remote.
She then proceded to say, "Oh, what is that on the TV?"
I replied, "Dust."
And that's how the fight started...

My wife kept playing with her wedding ring so I asked her, “honey, why do you keep turning and twisting your ring?”
To which she replied, “I am trying to figure out the combination.”
And that’s when the fight started!

I went shopping with my wife to buy me some new business shirts but found that the largest size the store had was still too tight.
I asked my wife, "Where do I go from here?"
My wife replied, "Straight to the gym!"
And that's when the fight started.

CinC House has always had a wise axiom:

1. Don't listen to what I say, know what I mean.
2. I am always right.
3. On that rare occasion (we're talking Biblically rare) that I might be short of perfectly correct remember who I am, who you are, and rule #2.

It's worked for 31 1/2 years...
