Now, men, we have a box in our brain that most women are not aware of. This particular box has nothing in it. It’s true, it’s true. In fact, we call it the "nothing box." And of all the boxes a man has in his brain, the nothing box is our favorite box! If a man has the chance, he’ll go to his nothing box every time. That's why a man can do something seemingly completely brain-dead for hours on end. You know, like fishing.
Women can’t do it, they can’t do it, their minds never stop, and they don't understand the nothing box and it drives them crazy because nothing drives a woman more crazy or makes you feel more irritated than to witness a man doing nothing!
