Weird conversation with my girlfriend a couple of months ago
OH:"Can you play ice hockey on grass?" ME:"No, they play normal hockey on grass" OH:"What about in Sweden, is it called Ice Hockey if they play normal hockey but the pitch is frozen?" ME:"No, that's just hockey, but on a frozen pitch, Ice Hockey is on a rink of ice" OH:"Oh, so you can only practice in winter then, that's rubbish"
Another classic
OH:"You know the Tour of France thingy" ME:"What, the cycling?" OH:"Yeah, that one. What happens at night?" ME:"What do you mean?" OH:"Well, does anyone go to bed? Cos then you would lose!" ME:"Why?" OH:"Well, everyone else would just carry on cycling and you would get left behind. So you'd just have to keep on riding and drinking lots of coffee or something" ME:"No, they have stages. They race over a set distance and then they go and rest and race somewhere else the next day" OH:"So, you can lose, but it doesn't matter as you just race again? Why does anyone bother then? Why don't they just all skip to the final race?" ME:"They add up all the times from every race and the person with the lowest overall time wins the overall event, but there's also prizes for best sprint rider, best rider on the mountains etc." OH:"That's too confusing, they should just have one massive stage and you should be able to sleep and ride it all and see who gets to the end first"
Forgot about the one a girl i was seeing for a bit come up with;
“My Nan has got a friend in Germany who bets on German football scores with Ladbrokes but cos she is an hour in front she already knows the scores, so wins”
"No babe, he plays for Barcelona, they bought him from Arsenal"
"Well why is he playing for Spain then?"
"..........."
One time, we were in Woburn Safari park, in the australian walkabout thing. Walking past the wallabee's in there, she comes out with "I wonder what its like to only have two legs?"
Also a couple of weeks ago she asked me if its possible to 'grow shorter'
the denial posse will see this as another confirmation that everything is rosie and the famous fourskins could not have got it more wrong from their useless sources
I'm sure I've said these before... but my ex came out with "turn the BBQ round!" once when getting smoke blown on her, and "how do they survive at these altitudes" when desceribing a fly in an aeroplane.
My missus was on absolute form yesterday. Here are a few things she came out with;
The Falklands are in France
Canada is part of the USA
There are two continents ‘Europe & Asia’
And my personal favourite that the Holocaust ‘happened over here’
At least you must have some interesting conversations, Mine consist of `Your dinners on the table' `Be quiet' `Why don't you go on the computer, i'm watching the cookery'
I remember playing Trivial Persuit with the family at xmas one year, and I had my (now) ex-wife on my side. Asked to name a famous jockey, she replied.........
Colleague: Have you read Jane Eyre? Bloke: Why? Has she got a new book out?
Also, whilst playing Articulate he was tasked with describing 'Acoustic' - his opening effort was 'it's brown, made of wood and you hit people with it'.

And also said "what does a football captain do? Does he ring all the other players and ask if they want to play?"
Palm to head!

Why do football teams need managers, they just run around and kick a ball.

ML: That's because Messi is Argentinian Martin....
