My neighbor across the street has what I call “The Man Garage.” When he opens the garage door it looks like a studio apartment in there. Neon beer signs, a couple reclining chairs, a TV, refrigerator, a computer, a set of drums and a guitar. Basically it’s all the husbands crap that the wife didn’t want in her house. I don’t know them at all, but every time I see him sitting in that reclining chair with the remote control in his hand, it just cracks me up, and I want to ask him why he basically lives in the garage. I can just hear his wife saying, “Leave me alone, go to your garage!”
Anyway, what made me think about this is, he watches Jerry Springer daily. So when I am in my bathroom with the window open, all I hear echoing through the neighborhood is, JERRY JERRY JERRY JERRY! Yep! He needs a “Man Garage.”
man room, garage, Jerry Springer
If I had a man I’d put him in the garage too. I would also charge him rent.
Felicia - NICE! You made me spew my 7UP!
It cuts both ways. On one hand a “man basement” or “man garage” is a place to banish us to when you need your space… but at the same time a man needs a refuge from your curios, scrunchy posts and Lazy Susans!
Lol @ Felicia. This guy reminds me of Al Bundy. So guys like that really do exist huh?
I know a guy who has one of those, and he calls it his “barage.” Because a lot of beer gets drunk there.
It’s not a “Man Garage” until he has a singing bass fish plaque.
The “Man Garage” sounds like a great place to hang, but Jerry Springer? Puhleeze!
