Dietrich Fischer – TRANSCEND Media Service

A husband tells his wife triumphantly,

“It says here in the newspaper that women use an average of 20,000 words a day, and men only 10,000. It proves women talk too much.”

The wife:

“That’s only because men never listen the first time, we have to repeat everything.”

Husband:

“What did you say?”
