How is it that.....

• Teenagers can see a packet of chips in the shopping bags half a mile away but can't see the dirty glasses/ junk piled up in their room.
• Kids can remember entire episodes of the Simpsons they watched years ago, but can't remember if they got given any homework THAT day.
• Men can pinpoint the exact moment they were last 'intimate' but can't remember your anniversary/ birthday/ mothers day?!
• A checkout line can be going super fast so you change to it and it immediately slows down (and the one you were on before speeds up)
• Common sense isn't that common
• Kids will ask and bug you for shit while you're on the phone/ skyping. (personally guilty of this one when I as a kid too)
• Sitcoms always portray it as the 'mans' job to put bins out but in reality the woman always does so.
• The day your hair/ skin looks great you won't see anyone you know.
• The day you have an important function you'll get a zit/ hair will be misbehaving (or worse you also run into an ex/ arch-enemy)
• That function/ event you are so NOT looking forward to and say "it'll be an early night" ends up being epic and the most fun you've had in ages?
• Everytime you pack to go away you forget pyjamas or toothbrush?
• A mother/ sister/ great girlfriend can tell from 4 syllables on the phone (or even email!) if you're annoyed/ sad/ tired or angry; but a man can't tell when he's looking straight at you.
• Kids will ask you a question then say 'Yeah I know' .... wtf..... don't ask then!
• Teenagers will ask 'where does this go, should I wear shorts today' ..... but they won't ask whether they can have a friend over til said friend is on your doorstep and you're put on the spot.

Please post your own to this - I love getting comments and input. :) Give me a giggle people.... I need plenty this week
