Retired Men Are Deep Thinkers

This story has been around since the dawn of man but it never gets old.


 
I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so
I sat down and had a cold beer. 

 
 the day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.
 

My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing, 
and I said, "Nothing." 

 

The reason I said "nothing" instead of saying "just thinking" is because she then would have asked, "About what?"
 

At that point I would have had to explain that men are deep thinkers about various topics, which would lead to other questions.
 

Finally I pondered an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?
 

Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts, but how could they know?
 

Well, after another beer, and some more heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with an answer to that question.
 

Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby, and even though I obviously couldn't really know, here is the reason for my conclusion:
 
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another child."


 
But you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts
 

I rest my case.

Time for another beer.  Then maybe a nap.
