Wordless Wednesday- Jumping to Conclusions
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my Disclosure and Privacy Policy.
This Wordless Wednesday (which is always anything but wordless) is going to need a bit of a backdrop story.
My husband Joe comes home from a long day of work to find the UPS man left his much anticipated new rims for his car outside. I watch out the kitchen window as I’m emptying the dishwasher to see my husband’s face light up and excited to all of a sudden an obvious “oh no!” coming out if his mouth. Then he looks dejected and then angry at himself, ready to throw his workout bag into the snow. He comes inside to tell me he must have ordered the wrong size because the rims say 17″ (he needs 16″) and he starts going off on how expensive they will be to ship back. Blah, blah, blah.
I told him not to worry just yet and first check to make sure he ordered the wrong ones. If it is their mistake they can pay for the shipping. So he checks his order confirmation and realizes he ordered the right ones. Suddenly I’m the brilliant wife (of course) and he is feeling a bit better. Still, he is bummed about having to go to the trouble of sending them back and having to call the company to get it straightened out.
And then he takes a closer look at the box and sees this:
Um, yeah. So that explains a lot. *cough*

LOL, men 🙂
Yay for smart mamas! Good think you all checked!
LOL men don’t read … ever!
That’s hysterical!!
LOL! Men!!!
Happy WW!
that’s so crazy how funny that they had to put a label on the box because obviously many people were calling Lol
That’s hilarious, but I’ve never seen a sticker like that. I’m sure UPS had that on the bottom or something too where he missed it at first glance.
Too funny! I MIGHT have missed that at first too so I don’t blame him! 🙂
LOL. That is too funny!
Um, that seems like a lot of extra work for that company…but it makes for GREAT blog fodder! 🙂
Funny that it must happen so often that they developed a custom sticker for it!
This must not be an isolated incident, since they created a sign just for that reason. A comedy of errors.
Ha ha! Good thing he has a fabulous wife to let him know what’s up and down, left and right. 😉
LOL – how funny is that!
My husband would have reacted the same way…assumed it was the wrong size before checking. Sigh….
Too funny! Men!
Funny!
It’s always all in the details, which is why women are the dominate species:)
Loved it. LOL
That is so funny. I bet even he had to laugh about that afterward…maybe not in front of you, but somewhere inside I bet he snickered a bit at his own silliness.
Wishing you a Wonderful Wednesday!

Ohmygosh that is great! And that definitely needed the story. 🙂 I swear, men never pay attention.
Happy WW! Thanks for the linky!
