A Guy Thing?

[sailorzeo]

Matt picked up the toothpaste from the bathroom counter. "Is this the good one or the bad one?"
I looked up to see which one he was holding. "That's the bad one."
"Oh, okay." He put the toothpaste back on the counter.
"No, no, throw it away, don't put it back!"

(earlier that week)
"Wow, the milk is bad. If I can smell it through this," he motioned to his stuffed-up nose, "it must be really bad."
A few hours later, I opened the refrigerator and spotted the gallon jug still in the door. "Matt? I thought you said the milk was bad."
"It is."
"So why is it still in here?"

Is it just a guy thing, "Oh wow, this is bad," put it back where it was. If I notice something's gone bad, I pitch it. I don't wait until the trash is being taken out, I just dump it, then and there.

And on a random note, do kids actually _like_ those Kidz Bopz cd compilations?

Well, see, with milk & spoiling food, you keep it in the fridge until right before you're changing the garbage bag. THEN you dump it and toss the empty yet smelly container.
