Am I Just Too Much A Newbie Or Am I Dealing With A Nutjob?

Well I got a good laugh out of that one. I know a few folks like this as well. Next time your friend pulls this with you if you are wearing boots, just pull your pants legs up and stuff them into the top of your boots. If/when he asks why you did that just look him in the eyes and tell him it's getting deep in here. I've done that a few times and eventually they get the point or just stop talking to you period. Either way it works.

Guys like this give proper know-it-alls like me a bad name. Tell him I'm coming over to take his "arrogant jerk" membership card back. It's too exclusive of a club for the likes of him.

Is this friend by any chance a salesman?

Just wonderin'.

Haha... A mechanic.

Thanks for the Friday laugh

I agree, so how far you can get the next story to evolve. Then prepare an oxygen tank to prevent from passing out from the hysterical laughing fit afterwards.

I can normally count on some topic or another each time we meet up. I just had to wonder a tad bit since he supposedly lived on a working farm. However, he was also a hunting and fishing guide, yet I tie his flies and show him how to cast. So there is that, too... *laughs*

What department of the government does he act in??????

May be running for top office soon. Just another Nutcase making his presence known.

@JFDavis58. I could confuse the matter ever more by telling him to identify a male & female Cane Toad

My wife's mother was like that. She had to be the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral. I grew up with a love of classical music and, whenever I was driving, I would play it on the radio. When my wife is in the car, she will often ask me which piece is playing and, I will tell her, if I know it. If her mother was in the car as well, she would often agree with me in a slightly surprised and condescending tone.

I started wondering if she really knew the genre that well and so started giving my wife wrong answers on purpose....same agreeing comments, condescending tones. I finally laughed and told her was I was doing...the woman never spoke to me again. Best thing that could have happened to both my wife and I

Perhaps he was "just being a man"? I am told we always try to solve problems for women when really they just want us to do is shut up and listen :D (Is that what I'm doing now?!). As a mechanic - his role in life is problem solving - and god bless 'em all for it, I hate working on cars.

I grew up in the countryside but never really got to grips with all the farming lingo but perhaps he was thinking of, the Red Heifer.
