Yes we are...  sometimes our logic is just a little beyond you.  That's all.   :shock:

LOL!, except that the common conversation in this house goes:

Me: WTF were you thinking?
Other person (not always just the other half):   Well,... it seemed like a good idea at the time....

Then degrades from there.

I don't think the logic is beyond me,... I think it's beyond logic.  Or defies it.   :duh:  :stickpoke:

How about this one:

Me: Look! These dirt tires are on sale, and aren't they the ones that you wanted?
Him: Naw,.. those are last year's model.
Me: Same tires? Just last year's model?
Him: pretty much.
Me: Ok,... so,... big win for you!
Him:  I'd rather this years.
Me: So... you'd rather not ride, cos your tires are worn out, than buy last year's tires?
Him: *shrug* I dunno.
Me: They're friggin tires,.. and they're gonna be full of sand and mud,.. it's not a fashion statement.
Him: I'll wait.

*sigh*

In that case it is either a fashion statement - and he doesn't want to suffer the ridicule of his male riding friends for riding on last year's best tire - or the sand and mud are in more places than just the old worn out tires.

I don't -think- it's a fashion statement, but, since the "logic is beyond me", perhaps I just don't get it.  

So,... where else go you think that sand and mud may be?  :wink:  :stickpoke:
