What's IQ Got to Do With It?
Sometimes men don't date women for their IQs. Here are some examples:
Today, my girlfriend asked me if my grandmother had any kids.
My girlfriend and I went out to dinner. We were going to get there 30 minutes early, so I told her to call to see if they could bump us up. The reservation was under my name. After being with me for a year, she didn't know how to say my last name.
It took my girlfriend almost a full season of The Office to realize it wasn't a reality show. From collegehumor.com

Not so Helpful
The elevator in our building malfunctioned one day, leaving several of us stranded. Seeing a sign that listed two emergency phone numbers, I dialed the first and explained our situation.
After what seemed to be a very long silence, the voice on the other end said, "I don't know what you expect me to do for you; I'm a psychologist."
"A psychologist?" I replied. "Your phone is listed here as an emergency number. Can't you help us?"
"Well," he finally responded in a measured tone. "How do you feel about being stuck in an elevator?"

Ms. Black Thumb
There are people who have green thumbs. And then there's me, Ms. Black Thumb. I didn't think anyone else noticed until the day my sister visited. "I found this in the yard," she said, handing me a potted plant as she came in the door. "I think the wind blew it off your deck.""It wasn't the wind," my husband joked. "It jumped." --Leslie Baker, Walkersville, Maryland

The Right Diagnosis
A man tells his doctor that he's incapable of doing all the things around the house that he used to do. When the examination is over, he says, "Okay, Doctor. In plain English - what's wrong with me?"
"Well, in plain English," says the doctor, "you're just lazy."
The man nods. "Now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife."
