A man was walking on a beach in California one day when he spotted something shiny poking out of the sand. He bent down to investigate, dug a little, and pulled out an old vase. He began to clean it off and suddenly a genie appeared.
"Thank you for freeing me! I am prepared to grant you one wish."
The man thought for a minute and then knew exactly what he wanted. "I have always wanted to be able to drive to Hawaii, so what I want is a bridge from California to Hawaii."
"Seriously? Do you have any idea of how difficult that would be? The environmental impact statement alone would be immense, not to mention litigation from the Sierra Club and who knows who else! Isn't there any other wish I could grant you?"
The man was silent as he thought. "I understand. How about this: Sometimes when I come home from work my wife is upset with me. When I ask why she is upset, she says if I loved her I would know. But I don't know! I do love her, but the reason I am asking is because I don't know! The wish I want granted is to understand women!"
The genie frowned and thought that over. "So, were you thinking two lanes or four?"
Good one!! And don't forget the 2 most important words a man can say when responding to his wife..."yes dear".

Made me laugh. I don’t understand women, and I are one!
A classic - and easy to understand. : )

In my experience, there are 2 phrases, 4 unique words total....
Your "yes dear" and my addition "my fault, dear".
That’s 5 unique words. But that is part of our problem as it is the women that own ‘counting.’

So, if a man is all alone on a beach, is he still wrong?
