Me:Ok hun lets head back, been an hour
Nicole: Mine
Me...Mine..what?
Nicole: Mine
Me : Thats an $80 light..I mean its meant to be used..but..you cant lose or drop or lend it out.
Nicole : Mine
Me : You know I tested over 100 lights hun and only kept like 5
Nicole : Mine
Me : I love you more then the world hun, BUT I draw the line here.
Nicole : Mine Mine Mine


**As a man and the king of the house, NO way she was getting that light.I wear the pants..I got the grapefruits.

When a woman grabs hold of a long implement that is predominantly yours. You don't complain. You just sigh and bear with it.

You either get it back when she is done or you are happy to give it to you and let her use it!

Oh, and if it happens to be a flashlight you instantly go out and order a new one. It shows she has good taste in picking you.

Funny, I continually offer my best lights to my wife.

"I'm glad you like it honey, why don't you keep it, and I'll just order a replacement?"

She doesn't have to know that the replacement cost 50% more...

my woman

Sounds like you've got a "mine" as well.

ROFL

Now if only Amlite would come out with a forward clickie accessory for that light... 1 stage would be just fine by me even. (or some ingenious CPFer could point me to a switch that will work on the amlite) I just refuse to pay over $30 for a reverse. Me = Stubborn

They have a one stage for $10. I have it and thats all I use.

My girlfriend thinks I'm retarded for liking flashlights..you should be happy!

 

[CeilingDweller]

LOL! Great post.

My wife has been jealous ever since I showed her my LOD-CE w/10440's. Now that there are some Q4 LOD lights on the market I figured it was time to "give in" and let her have the light. When she asked me if I was sure...I said no problem I'll just order another one. :devil: To which she replied, "Well I don't want the old, crappy, beat-up, hand me down (There's not one scratch on it) I want a new one!

I guess you can't revoke a soul for tryin'.

 

[scottaw]

My fiancee always gives me crap about having so many lights "why do i need another light in my car?" But tonight i caught her using her dorcy123 to vacuum her car after dark...she's converting....slowly.

 

[Bullzeyebill]

You did the right thing. I let my wife use my modded KL1 as a night duty light, going to bathroom, checking out house, etc, and she lost it. "Misplaced it, it will turn up. We'll find it when we move." UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would not have been that much of an issue, but this is the second light she has "misplaced", but really "I gave it to you, I remember". That was a nice original KL3. Guess what, no more of my "nice" lights for her.

My friend came over....Nicole said " look chris, david gave me this lil minimag light"

She called a T5 a mag. I would rather she kicked me in the beanbag then say that.

What!!! First you lose your light now this! It Clearly Says "Amilite" on the side and it Clearly Outshines a Minimag and is smaller too. It also uses a completely different battery!(and costs A LOT more) How did she mess that up??? I hope you have corrected her, nicely.

At least she know a good light when she sees one.

 

[greenstuffs]

She will give it back to you once she finds out that a battery costs $6 at local retailers

If you ever have to choose between a flashlight and a woman, take the flashlight. Besides, women don't need flashlights because there is already lighting in the kitchen and laundry room.

BINGO!!!!!!! :twothumbs

I think my wife's afraid of my high-end flashlights. She never really wants to use anything beyond the most basic ones I have.
