Man Cave Contest

Posted by Daddy Forever on Tuesday, October 7, 2008 : : 16 comments

A man cave is suppose to be a room filled with manly stuff and is used for watching sports, shooting pool, and being with the guys. I must not be manly because I don’t have a man cave and none of my friends have one either. Instead of a man cave, I have several rooms with toys scattered about the floor.

I would like a man cave, but I’m fairly certain if I tell my wife I need one, she’ll roll her eyes. Then she’ll tell me how she carried each of our kids for nine months. After that, she’ll remind me that she takes care of the kids full time and doesn’t get paid. Then she’ll suggest I rent an office so she can convert my home office into a mommy cave. And it’ll have a lock, will be sound proof, and kids will not be allowed. I think there might also be a full time masseuse.

While we are on the subject of man cave, you should check out the Win a Man Cave Contest. People have the chance to win up to $15,000 in merchandise to create their dream man cave (I’ve got dibs on the Samsung 58″ Plasma HDTV). All you have to do is submit a 100-word essay explaining why you or your significant other should win. The deadline to enter is November 19, 2008.

I don’t think she will. She doesn’t love me. I’m just her sex slave.

I am in the same boat. Besides our place is tiny and if I won I would have no where to put the make cave except the dog house for the dog we no longer have.

How about building a bigger dog house? big enough to fit a flat screen TV.

I asked for a man cave once and my wife pointed to the garage…

That would work as long as you don’t need to park your car in the garage. I’ve thought about doing that, but I’m not thrill with leaving the cars in the driveway all the time.

noooo man cave here - please !! MIC does have a workshop in the garage of one of our rental properties and he has been known to bring bike parts into the lounge …

With three lads I think it is definately me who will need a girlie space for girlie pursuits - you know watching chick flicks, doing my nails, eating chocolate and the usual stuff one does without requiring male influence .

Have a great day - le

You forgot the masseuse. Who doesn’t want a massage?

John has a man cave. He disappears into the basement for hours at at time “working” on his computer. I think I need a girl cave that way I can disappear, too.

You should just convert John’s man cave into a girl cave when he’s at work. Wouldn’t that be funny.

Is this to remind us of the cave man era? ROFL

That would give the term “clubbing” a different kind of meaning.

I’m with Mommy Forever. I need a Woman Cave where I can retreat. No husbands or kids allowed. Period.

Ouch! No husbands allowed?

“Man Cave” was a term invented by the HGTV Network. Find out the real deal at http://www.themantuary.com

Be A Man.

I may need to enter. Dave wants a Man Cave, although all the crying he does about how he’ll never get it makes me question whether or not he qualifies for the “Man” part of it.
