you’ll soon know

Hard to put your thumb on it

“I got hammered, dear.”

“Oh, great. Will you mix me one of whatever you’re having, dear?”

He has the sudden urge to thumb a-tack her.

And why is the carpet wet, Todd?

Well, he’s all set for hitchin’ a ride….

“I was just remembering the night I proposed to you, dear.”

He was doing the Indian rain dance.

I broke my thumb that way.

“You don’t know pain: you haven’t given birth!” That is what my wife said when I yelled out from hitting my thumb with a hammer. It shut me up.

Go ahead. Hammer. Wife’s head. Go ahead. Go. A head. lol, etc…

Nailed it!

My left thumb nail is misshaped because of this. I built houses for years and it’s an occupational hazard.

Same thing happened to me when a wasp stung me.

He hit the wrong nail.

BEEN THERE DONE THAT

At least he didn’t disturb her too badly.

It’s always thumb thing.

Thanks for asking……

Funny…….

Why isn’t she on high alert while he is attempting repairs with a hammer in his hand?

I didn’t know you knew such language.

They don’t like it at the hardware store when you want to ‘test’ the air hammer. Or chain saw.

When you can still yell, it wasn’t too bad.

I use screws whenever possible

You nailed it!

Hit the nag on the head

Reminiscent of this Golden Oldie:

Mom: What did Daddy say when he hit his thumb with the hammer?

Kid: Should I leave out the swear words?

Mom: Of course.

Kid: He didn’t say a thing.
