Men, Wood and Banging.

What is their obsession?!!?!

This morning I have been doing work downstairs and all I can hear reverberating around the house is:

*BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG........ BANGBANGBANG.... BANG BANG.... BANG BANG BANG BANG BANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANG*

*heavy breathing*

*clonking of wood*

*sniffle*

*BANG BANG BANG WUMP WUMP WUMP WUMP*

After a couple of hours of thinking... "I'm sure he knows what he's doing" I suddenly start feeling a tad concerned.

So upstairs I go and immediately all I can see is dust sheets and bits of wood everywhere.

After pausing and thinking "Oooh nuh..." I make my way into the study where I am presented with a dust-masked-faced-picky wielding a large hammer and a big bit of wood.

I then notice our boxed in bit in the study (which hides the slant of the stairs) has an enormous hole in it.

Me: *looking slightly baffled* "Ermm... what are you doing?"

Picky: *with a sound of "well duh!?" to his tone of voice* "Exploring?!?!"

Me: *looks at big hole... looks back at picky... starts to wonder how it's all going to get fixed... opens mouth to ask... closes mouth as decides she doesn't want to know... exits room and retreats downstairs*

IMO:

Mens Brains:

Men + Wood + Hammer = I AM GOD OF CARPENTRY, HEAR ME ROAR! RAAR!

ANd he has now just come downstairs, played with the dog, plonked down with a cuppa and said...

"I'm not quite sure how to do the next stage up there"

*WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!*

Do you guys not plan!?!?

petemc · 11-04-2008, 11:57

We never have a plan when it comes to our wood. We just like to bang away

kaiowas · 11-04-2008, 11:58

I plan to the extent of never actually starting.

You can't plan anything after picking up a hammer, you just have to go with the flow.

Me: "Have you not planned this!?!?"

Picky: *high pitched voice* "YES!"

Me: "But you've pulled it apart... have you thought about how you're going to put it together!?"

Picky: *high pitched-stop-accusing-me-of-being-non-god-like-with-my-hammer-voice* "YEEES!"

Me: "How are you going to put it together?! Where are you going to get the stuff from?!"

Picky: *matter of factly voice* "B&Q" *stoopid grin on his face*

Me: "What?! How'd you know B&Q will have what we need?!"

Picky: "WE NEED WOOD! They do WOOD! It's only WOOD!"

*sigh*

It's funny because it's not happening in my place

Sorry Pheebs

I would love to laugh but this often happens here. Dad decides something needs to change then goes out to his garage for about 3 days. Although he is very good at things like that and actually finishes them and they look great but it scares the bejesus out of mum and i because of the state of him.
At least Picky is unlikely to set himself on fire, or try and cut off his toes with a circular saw...think yourself lucky there lol!
