lol.. I wouldn't expect any less... I work with all men so I'm up for razzing from time to time
They certainly don't hold back now, do they?

on second thought, I think his environmental argument is a facade. he is really thinking.....
so, brake it to him gently, when you ask him to close the sunroof on his eco car, because you have a small oil leak...........

lol...that definitely trumps 'driving in the ditch' which is what I feel like I've been doing with all of this snow....it has been hard to keep it on the roads lately
Maybe I'll give him this when he next razzes me because 'it feels so right doing the wrong thing':

Buy him a nice working model Disco as a Christmas present in kind thanks for him driving a Smarty to rebalance the environmental impact of your D2 V8 'gas guzzler'. He'll get the message.

Tell her Primum non nocere. put another way;
Given an existing problem, it may be better not to do something, or even to do nothing, than to risk causing more harm than good ..
Or like mum says Ïf you can't say something nice , then Shut the #$@& up" or something like that.

hahaha.. yes, I probably should heed good advice and not instigate. Must be my naughty nature.. I love to have fun and play BUT.. maybe in the spirit of Christmas and Goodwill I should just bite my tongue and as France would say 'know when not to speak'

And it always seems the subtle high road is a very long route.
