Man Talk


I'm going to make 'Man Talk' a weekly thing, so if you are male and you want to talk about things, write a comment and I will 'do some research' (ask my boyfriend).

Today, my boyfriend on Ikea:

"But, you see thats where you are wrong, you see Ikea as some sort of treat. But, to be honest, it boils down to this; I'm standing there whilst you are deciding about what lamp goes in what room and I'm there thinking that as long as its a lamp and it lights up I don't really care if its post-modern or too homey, and its so dry and I forgot to have a drink before we entered so I'm dehydrated and tired because we had to get up at six in the morning to 'avoid the morning rush' which we didn't because the drive up here was awful and trying to park in that effing car park was a mission in itself, and all I want to do is go home and play GTA 4 until the small hours. The amazing thing is, whilst i've thought about all of this, you still haven't decided which lamp you want, and its been fifteen minutes already. YES, that Billy bookcase would look good in the living room, so help me god let one of those Annikka wardrobes fall on me because all of this is wasting valuable time separating me from my playstation..."

As a side note, I have a sneaking suspicion this sort of table would make you boys come running...

(If any of you are regular readers, you might want to know that exam was a new level of horrendous. Will spend whole summer pouring over chemistry books whilst the tanned, intelligent masses barbecue, shop and drink and generally enjoy themselves...)
