  • Quotable quotes from your better half

    I thought we should have a thread for this .

    during my recent search for a new steed.
    me: wifey Hd has lowered prices , think I should get one!
    wifey: wow!
    me: (feeling encouraged): yeah with local assembly In india its quite affordable.
    wifey:how much?
    me: err! around 7L
    wifey: cool we can buy an innova and then a HD
    Me: we can't park a innova in the house dear no space.
    wifey: yeah we should by an apartment.

    net cost of harley CKD 65L apartment +14L innova+7L harley !
    result: postponed indefinitely!

    @ RE showroom
    me: check out the new desert storm , looks awesome isnt it ?
    wifey: you lazy bum ! you want to buy a dust coloured bike to escape from ever cleaning the bike.

    ,@honda cbr showroom
    me : sexy aint it ?, super pickup!
    wifey : fat and furious!

    @ ktm showroom
    me: amazing bike babe , what do you think?
    wifey: hmm will look silly with formals , btw sounds like auto!

    @ hero honda showroom to check impulse
    me: this is like the suv on our shitty roads.
    wifey: I am not even getting out of the car, the forum you reading off lately has gotten into your head.

    later that night
    wifey : why do you want to buy new bike ?
    me : got bit bored, been riding fiero for 10 years.
    wifey: you are married get used to old stuff!
    me: fine but the pickup has gone down , being late to office everyday.
    wifey: no your weight has gone up , diet and work out your bike will go faster.

    well folks
    now you know why I can't decide on a new bike ! poor me!
    cheers!!!

          This is what happens when an Unstoppable force meets an immovable object !! (No need to explain which is which )
          Advice is a form of nostalgia.
          Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

              Amazing thread, one from my side

              While checking out the ducati 796

              Me: Man that is one sexy looking bike
              Wife: Whats sexy about a bike?
              Me: Look at the curves on this babe the design, amazing power and its hitting the market at such competitive pricing
              Wife: Is it, how much is it for?
              Me: Less that 6L, special prices for a short time.
              Wife: Whatttt 6L, you can get me a 1 carat diamond ring for less than that.
              Me: Boss, getting a bike is much better.
              Wife: How is it better, atleast with a ring you shall have an asset
              Me: A bike is an asset.
              Wife: Its price will keep depreciating while diamonds are forever and its price wont depreciate.
              Me: You know if i get the bike i shall be riding it every day so its of more usability as compared the ring you shall be wearing once in a blue moon.
              Wife: Its better to buy a ring, like gold it comes handy in hard times.
              Me: Tell me one time when actually have used jewellery for other purposes. Wifey look at it this way, I get the bike and i will be riding it and always be happy and a happy me will always be getting stuff for you and doing stuff for you.
              ...Lambi Khamoshi-- i know i have got her thinking now. The blank look on her face tells me she does not have a reply. Score Me 1- 0 Wifey
              Wife: Its impossible to talk to you men.

              That' s how most of these debate end. And sometimes by me getting her stuff. Uhh most of the times by me getting her stuff.

                ^^^ You should've told, getting down from a Ducati has special attention (especially, if your Wife has Sisters/Cousins, you can say it makes her look proud) than noiseless ring
                Skill is what keeps you on a Motorcycle
                Awareness + Skill is what keeps you out of harm's way
                ATGATT + Awareness + Skill means you might Live To Ride another day

                  OT:

                  Hey aargee, what's this symbol that you have as your avatar? This is the third symbol I am seeing and the theme remains the same. Does it mean anything?

                    Oh I can write a whole book on these but that would probably mean me getting banned.

                    Wont risk it :P

                        I swear, it was yesterday only when I thought of starting similar thread (reactions of wife / girlfriend), but couldn't do that as I was on leave. And today... here you go... You stole my idea...
                        Anyway, a very nice interesting topic. One can write 'n' no. of incidents on it, but as Satyen bhai said, 'Quotable' word is restricting here...

                        Being a RE fan, I used to point to each and every passing by / standing enfield and shout 'ohh bullet...' (like a kid... ) and my wifey used to say 'Shut up and ride...' (like a teacher... ) One day, I pointed to a standing-near by-all new TBTS, I said, rather shouted, 'ohh bullet... we're gonna buy this one soon...' She saw the beast and was amazed by it. Next moment her amazed face turned into puzzeled face.
                        "Par yeh to Royal Enfield hai, bullet nahi... (But this is a Royal Enfield, and not a bullet...)" she replied innocently...

                        Edit: I think she made a valid point there (although unknowingly...) We call each and every Enfield a bullet. Which is not true, I'll say...

                            aargee sir, this one can come back as a boomerang with a sweet question in sweetest tone you have ever heard (pls read sarcasm ), "why do you need special attention ?"
