Arlo: So, what do you and Robin talk about when you get together?
Janis: Oh, you know - kids, gardening, books.
Janis: Recipes? Crocheting? The upcoming season in the Hamptons? WHAT?
Arlo: Men?
Janis: Whatever for?
Nah. Never understood why men think they’re so interesting.
Usually in conversations they merit one comment — “eh…men.” Everything that needs to be understood can be understood that simply. Then we can move on to more interesting things. :D
Do most men really CARE what their wives talk about with other women? My husband nearly died of boredom when he was condemned to sit at a restaurant table with one of my friends and me. The same thing happened when I met with one of my BFF’s and her companion. If I were Janis, I would find Arlo’s behavior very annoying.
Sorry, saps, this old bitch thinks Janis knows exactrly what she means and isn’t being coy at all. You think you are so interesting, and after a certain point, who gives a hoot?
My wife didn’t keep secrets very well. I learned some surprising things about some of her friends’ husbands and — from the looks I got, they learned a few things about me too!

When men get together, they talk about women. Of course Arlo would ‘know’ Janis and Robin talk about men.

What am I missing about Robin’s husband? Or is she single?

Hmmmmm. Broadening horizons for Janis?

Janis is very coy.

Simple. Just answer the question, Janis. Then the panels will get more interesting.

Because men are always thinking/talking about women, they assume women are always thinking/talking about men? Surprise. We have other interests.

We don’t usually talk just about men — unless as usual, the men are in the way of our doing something actually interesting…
