I always get her words between 17,000-20,000 right about bedtime….

You could put that language protein on crackers for extra bite.

Some women were vaccinated with a Victrola needle. ( For those of you too young to understand – Google it ! )Or you could say, some can’t turn off the Yappomatic !

Incureable . . . .

“mums the word” takes an entirely different meaning…

This reminds me of a Jeff Foxworthy sketch…

I’m really going to get in trouble, now, but to quote a riposte from Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing about the sharped tongued Beatrice : " I wish my horse has the speed of her tongue…and so good a continuer ! "

They don’t know the guys I work with!

Hardy har har.

FAIL

The language protein is called Foxp2. I’m sure my Significant Other, whom I love dearly (anyway) regularly overdoses. If I choose not to listen, she’ll talk to the dog.

Earl only hopes for a cure so he can get nore than just a “word” in now and then.

The 3 most loquacious people I ever knew were both men. Once they started they never would shut up. I think they all loved the sounds of their own voices.

Oh! That would explain why men are so dumb! Hard to believe they use up 6000 of them talking about sports!

@Linguist — you quoted " " I wish my horse has the speed of her tongue…and so good a continuer ! "I get the first part, but what’s a “continuer?”

And they have a memory that goes back 30 or more years…Remember when you looked a that girl in 1983. They’re like a elephant when it comes to a arguement.

I know some men he’d enjoy talking to :/

Girls are born talking on the phone. That makes it hard for boys to catch up.

For one day they should have guys do mega talking and gals do minimal talking. Guys can find out how exhausting it is to talk so much and gals will go buy earplugs.

Women talk more because we have to repeat everything we say to men.

Yeah… Good Luck with that, Earl.

LOL xxx

Women have more important things to say is all…

I was the only guy in a meeting at work with six female coworkers. It took 40 minutes for me to get a full sentence in. No exaggeration, I looked at my watch. Just saying.

Love the dismembered Rubik’s cube! Ah – not-so-happy memories.

We own a business. It is the men who come in early every morning and talk , not the women!!! They gossip a lot more too.

“Edith- Stifle yourself…Stifle,Stifle,Stifle.”“And go fix me a sammich and bring me a beer.”

I guess I talk less than the average woman because I don’t talk much. In fact, whenever I get estimates for work, it’s always the male contractors who talk the most.

Had a friend, who’s now passed away, who would start talking the moment we arrived and didn’t stop to take a breath unless we were eating. She talked fast and non-stop. Used to drive me crazy.

Re: the comments from the men on here, there is a good reason men talk less. When they open their mouths inevitably they trip on their tongue.
