What always comes to my mind when I see her name, is an old song by the Boxtops from the 1960's, called Sweet Cream Ladies, Forward March. It was about prostitutes, or, as Cream Lady probably calls them, "sex workers".
The Box Tops Sweet cream ladies forward march The world owes you a living Sweet cream ladies do your part Think what you are giving To the lost and lonely people of the night Out of need they seek direction from the light They will love you in the darkness Take advantage of your starkness And refuse to recognize you in the light Sweet cream ladies forward march Think what your providing Sweet cream ladies show your starch What's the use in hiding Tell the socialites to look the other way It's instinctive stimulation you convey It's a necessary function Meant for those without compunction Who get tired of vanilla everyday Sweet cream ladies forward march Puritans ignore them Sweet cream ladies do their part Sweet cream men adore them Let them satisfy the ego of the male Let them fabricate success for those who fail And should penalties pursue them When there's really credit to them They might keep a simple fellow out of jail Sweet cream ladies forward march Sweet cream ladies forward march Sweet cream ladies forward march... FADE |

The woman is not really "nagging", is she? The man is doing all the talking, and the way he ends his sentences in that "up" tone is REALLY annoying. How come none of the men on this post mentioned THAT?
Believe me, there are too many men who NEVER initiate home improvement or even home maintenance without the wife's bringing it up first. Some men just don't SEE things that have to be repaired, replaced or updated. So we live with perpetually dripping faucets, broken door-locks, carpets worn down to matting which has turned to powder, holes in window screens, leaky roofs....need I go on?!

Stacy, most guys don't really care much about replacing and updating. It's their wives who care about that stuff (repairing, however, might be a different story, depending on what's broken). But as a single male, I just don't care that much if my kitchen cabinets are outdated. As long as they hold my food.

jerkylips, we'll probably both end up in hell for these jokes. Or worse yet---be forced to attend the Lilith Fair.

Psst, Thor. Lilith Fair ended in 1999. How about be forced to watch a weeks worth of Lifetime Television??? Even I would hang myself.

Shows how much I keep up on such things.
I watched a movie on Lifetime once. There was a scene in which a married man is away on business, and he decides to call an "escort service". Knock on door. Man opens it. It's his daughter who unbeknownst to him, was working for the escort service as a prosititute. F*ckin' good stuff! That scene from that movie was, from what I can tell, Lifetime's only redeeming quality ever. Unfortunately, they didn't get it on. Alas!

Well, if the commercial showed a crummy, dilapidated house in need of repairs, perhaps I'd feel less inclined to focus on the woman in the ad. But the house showed is in nearly pristine condition,huge, and seemingly placed in a very well-of neighborhood. All of the 'repairs' shown in the ad were merely frivolous. Also- when I complete a job, I like to get thanked rather than crossed arms telling me that what I did "wasn't enough".
I guess the ad just grates me in a number of ways. One being that A: We're in a housing recession because a bunch of retards went out and bought houses they couldn't afford, then used all the 'equity' they got to buy bullcrap... like SUVs, granite counter tops, and so on. I live out in California where homes are ridiculously overpriced and now crashing down in value. Personally, I'm glad because I rent and can't wait for those prices to come down more. But ads like these seem desperate because the retail stores that sell the stuff realize that they're in deep doo-doo because all the housing ATM money is drying up fast. So the only ad they can come up with are ads depicting stupid men and their nagging wives showing them how stupid they are for not spending even MORE money so they can go into more debt? The Home Depot one is worse. "It's time", it says. Time for what? Time for us to go buy more of your imported junk? These ads are no different than the shill ads from the National Association of Realtors telling us that " Right now is a great time to buy a home." Ya, whatever... buy a home right when the economy is in the crapper and prices will be a LOT less next year ad there afterwards? |

Ahhhhhhh Lifetime! This is a typical lineup:
Fighting For My Daughter's Honor (unpopular teen gets raped by Football Star)
Fighting for My Daughter's Spoon (anorexia explored in teen modeling)
Fighting for My Daughter's Corner (teen prostitution)
Fighting for My Daughter's Bottle (teen drinking)

I started a thread about this in the old forum. I called it "Lifetime Television for Raped, Abused, Stalked and Murdered Women".
I hate that channel.

And then, once in a while, out of the blue, they'll run GoodFellas. WTF?

Yes, I know. The only time I tune into it is midnight every night to watch Frasier. Other than that, I avoid it like the plague.
It's the most horrible channel to have on in the background. When I go to visit my mom, it's all that is on and there always a woman screaming or someone getting killed or raped or beat up. Just awful.

What I don't understand is why can't the bitch do it herself. I am all for "EQUALITY" that would mean she can go to Lowe's and fix what ever she damn well pleases. My husband does things around the house but there are things that he will only do when the mood strikes him "hanging up my mirror above the fireplace" if I want it up, I know where the drill is.

You are my new hero. I wish I could do that stuff without wrecking anything and/or injuring myself and others.
Whatever happened to the Toolbelt Diva? I used to season-pass that show, but haven't seen it in forever.

While we're on the subject (but, seriously, way off-topic) the best TV show for its narcotic effect:
It's on History International every Wednesday at 9 PM!
There's no actual "naked," tee-hee. But it can put you to sleep in 12-15 minutes.

Well, the way I see it is "can I really screw it up any worse than they can?" and if I do than maybe I won't have to next time. I guess its the same principle that men use when they do laundry or put the dishes away.

NEVER, EVER MISS IT! I don't fall asleep to it; everyone loses me to that show.
'Cities of the Underworld' is great, too.

Here are even better jokes!
What do you call a man with bruises all over his body?
-Someone who doesn't listen to his wife!-
What do you call a man with a high-pitched voice?
-A man who doesn't follow his wife's orders!-
What do you call a man with two black eyes?
-A man who still hangs out with his friends even when his wife told him he is never to see his friends again!-
What do you call a smart man?
-A WOMAN-
What do you call a stupid woman?
-A man-
