RE: all of these GWoPers who have husbands that comment on the show (the lawyers, the doctors, the judges, the psychologists, etc), I think the men really don't give a rip.I'd imagine the conversation goes something like this:
GWoPer: Honey, the outrage! I accidentally turned on the TV and I can't believe you left it on TLC!
Honey: What, dear? What's TLC? Last thing I watched was golf on CBS. (turns back to computer or newspaper)
GWoPer: Don't you think, you being a lawyer and all, that Kate should be the one who has the injunction and not Jon?
Honey: ...
GWoPer: Honey? HONEY!
Honey: What, dear?
GWoPer: I SAID, Don't you think it should be KATE and not JON who has the INJUNCTION?
Honey: Who? Hey, what's for dinner?
GWoPer: KATE! You know, KATE! I mean, come on you're a lawyer, don't you think so?
Honey: What? (sees Evil Eye from wife) OH! Sure, sure. What's for dinner?
Where do I put this? It's really about the Dugger's, but fits better here. (And it also has more to do with reading Greecies than the Dugger show, which I've never actually watched....)
A conversation ten minutes ago between my husband (who really is a doctor) and myself.
Me: Honey, do you remember the Duggers?
Hubby: Who?
Me: This family with 19 kids.
Hubby: Why do I care?
Me: Well, they have 19 kids, and the last one was born at 25 weeks and 1.6 ozs.
Hubby: And this concerns me, why?
Me: Well, they are on TLC, and they have this whole show about them....and....
(He puts down the paper and gives me the "look....")
Me: Anyway, they believe that God wouldn't let anything happen to a mom with 19 kids to care for.
Hubby: Are we having breakfast anytime soon?
neonjungle, your mock convo is prescient!
