6 things my wife would say if she could speak man.

1. Honey, I'm going to clean the entire house from top to bottom. I need you to take these pretzels and chips, the dip, this pizza and the cooler of beer and I need you to go in the other room and play video games all day so you won't be in my way.
2. Look at what I found at the mall. A push-up bra and a mini-trampoline.
3. No, I don't expect you to listen to my problems quietly, I want you to tell me the obvious solutions.
4. Can I get you a beer?
5. I'm not sure the TV is big enough. We should probably get a new one.
6. What do you want for dinner, dear. I know. Donuts.

6 things my dog would say if he spoke English

1. What the cat said. That vet's always shoving things up my ass.
2. You gonna eat that?
3. I appreciate you buying a king-sized mattress and all but things are still a bit tight. You think maybe you could sleep on the floor? Really? That'd be great. You're the best.
4. Wow! I haven't seen you since, like, this morning. Wow!
5. I don't know who those squirrels think they are. Like climbing around in trees is cool or something. No good squirrels. I hate 'em.
6. You know what I could go for? Cat vomit. I mean that hard crunchy food you buy is great and all, but you can't beat cat vomit. If I was on death row, that would be my request for a last meal.

6 things my cat would say if she spoke English

1. Enough with the tail pulling. It was cute when I was a kitten but now it's just annoying.
2. What are you looking at? You looking at me?
3. I'll tell you when you've spooned enough squishy food in my bowl. Keep going.
4. Okay, now you've done it. I have no choice but to scratch you.
5. And about that vet. You should see what she shoves up my ass when you're not looking.
6. You know you want to. Pet the kitty.
