Take a number and wait until you're called.

“Hi hon, what are you watching?”

“Nothing…”

“But you are watching something. What is it?”

“I don’t know. Nothing…”

“Okay, then what are you not watching?”

“What. How can I be not watching something?”

“I walk into the room, the television is on and you are sitting on the lounge opposite the television, looking across at it so naturally I assume you are watching something. When I ask, you say you’re not watching anything. So if the television is on and you’re looking at it but it is nothing, then I have to ask what are you not watching.”

“But I’m not really watching anything.”

“Okay then, what are you looking at?

“You…”

“Gaaah…”

That is like some nights when I am "working" on my computer.  My wife will ask what I am doing.  "Nothing"  Same sort of dialog ensues.  That was a fun read Maso.

Gaaah!  Is right. But sometimes, no answer is the answer.

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it.

Gaaah! Is right.


I like the word "Gaaah". It says so much without saying anything.

I meant to comment on this but forgot. This dialogue is typical male response!! My hubby would tell me the same thing! And "Gaahhh" is such a perfect end!

That sound like the extent of our deepest conversations around here (my husband & I).

Fun read

I'm an advocate for 'Gaaaah', which is at odds to my absolute love of words, both written and spoken. But there is no single word I know that expresses complete frustration and I think 'Gaaaah' could be it.

Just so you know, this conversation is not one I've had with my wife (she and I spend a lot of time REALLY talking) but is most certainly a conversation I've had with members of the opposite sex numerous times in my past.

Thanks Serenity, IG and AngelaMarie for your comments.

No, but I've been standing outside your living room window (oops, did I write that out aloud?)
