HEH! IN A CAN
HEH!! Rhymes with Meh.
It is a very
handy, very versatile word…it is a yell sometimes.
Remember how
many ways your mother could call you by your name and you knew immediately if
you broke something, forgot something, lost something, or on a rare occasion did
something good?
Wives do the
same thing with Heh!
HEH. If said matter-of-factly it means, “So who
cares.”
HEH. When it
is said loudly it means, “I don’t think so.”
HEH. When said really loud it means, “You have got
to be kidding.”
HEH! When said loudly and with attitudinal emphasis
it means, “It is not going to happen.”
HEH!! I don’t know and I don’t want to find
out.
Heh is a
word I would like to use myself, but I can’t.
I think most men are just not able to hit that certain note, that
special timbre, that unique way that only women have of speaking volumes,
volumes with different meanings, all with one word or phrase.
So for men to
compete with their wives, I propose a new invention:
“HEH! IN A CAN”
An air horn
with multiple settings that blast outs your own special “HEH!”
Yes, “HEH! IN A CAN,” for those special
occasions when only a HEH response will do.
Say your
wife hints she would like an expensive gift.
Pull out your “HEH! IN A CAN”
set it to low and hit her with her own medicine, an “I don’t think so HEH.”
Your wife
tells you that if you go out for drinks after work you can make your own damn
dinner. Pull out your “HEH! IN A CAN” and ratchet it up a
notch.
Your wife
claims to be good at maintaining a budget.
“HEH! IN A CAN” has a setting
for that.
Your wife
wants to invite her mother over on Saturday night… “HEH! IN A CAN” can respond.
Yes, “HEH! IN A CAN!” Fight back with attitude
just like your wife does, all with one simple response.
Clearly this is a great idea.
Clearly this is a great idea.
I already
have a follow up product.
“INFLATABLE DOG HOUSE IN A CAN.”
If you market “HEH! IN A CAN!” the inflatable dog house should be a big seller!!
ReplyDeleteGosh, you Americans can put just about anything in a can, can't you?
ReplyDeleteGlad I do not live next door as the two of you might begin to sound like cruise ships coming and going.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea! You could have a whole range of cans. I know SD would appreciate a 'WTF are you doing Sarah' can - it could have settings from bemused to totally incredulous - I really think you are on to something with this.
ReplyDeleteYou really need to take this on Shark Tank. They'll love it, and you'll be RICH! (Just remember your friends on the way up. :)

Personally, I'd love to see the inflatable dog house in a can :) I say "go for both" inventions and see where they may take you :)
ReplyDeletebetty
Heh!
ReplyDeletelaughing!!! i'm not sure i can turn up the volume much on my own 'heh!' :)
ReplyDeleteI think you have hit on a winner with both.. That dog house in a can should really go with the women. We out number you guys so you are on to a gold mine. Let us know when you go public.
ReplyDeleteThe inflatable dog house in a can is good. It'll protect you from her yanking that can away from you and throwing it in your direction.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I can see that one coming. lol
ReplyDeleteYou got the most important part of this post. Inflatable doghouse in a can. You're definitely going to need that option.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day Cranky. My best to Mrs. C. ☺
I don't know why you waste your precious talents on this blog when you could be making a fortune on TV as a marriage councilor. Steve Harvey beware!!
ReplyDeleteActually, I think you have too much time on your hands.

U R right Joanne.
ReplyDeleteHowever, being a lazy person it may actually be a good thing.
Is this where we order? I'll take a case.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty good at using heh-heh-heh, but I definitely need your invention for use with SWMBO.
ReplyDeleteI'll give you space to market it on the counter at my proposed handbasket factory.
ReplyDeletePure genius.
