The 'man look'

I just had to post this because twice in the past 2 days I have had guys asking me where something is and not being able to find it.

Now perhaps you guys can shed some light on the 'man look'. Let me explain the 'man look' is a half hearted 'look' for something. Ie - you've looked at the scene in front of you as a whole and haven't been able to see what you are looking for, usually because a) you haven't actually moved anything and b) you haven't looked properly!

It's something that I was used to hearing at home my dad shouting 'where's my shirt?' 'It's in the airing cupboard' my Mum would call back. 'I've looked and it's not there!' My dad would shout adamantly. Frustrated my mum would end up having to go to the airing cupboard herself and within a matter of 2 seconds literally she would pull it out, usually without having to move anything at all.

Yesterday at my gym I arrived to see the owner Andy standing in his cupboard looking puzzled - it's not a big cupboard, its about the size of an airing cupboard but it wasn't cluttered and the small amount of things in there were tidy and neat. He was looking for his scales and knew that they were in his walk in cupboard on one of the 6 shelves. He was scratching his head for ages. I laughed and told him he'd done a 'man look' and went to the cupboard myself. He explained how it wasn't on the first shelf or on the second as he gave me a run-down of what was on each shelf and just as he was about to say it wasn't on the third - he saw the scales sitting there, underneath something else, but clearly visible without having to move anything!

Now the day before I had a guy email me saying he couldn't find a photo of me that he liked. I explained that there were no recent changes to my site so I again I joked and told him he'd had a 'man look'. I reiterated that it would still be there and asked him to go back to my site have a proper look. He came back to me and told me he couldn't find it. I went on the site myself and found the photo in a matter of seconds on my 'reviews' page.

I rest my case! :) Any guys shed any light on why you don't look for things properly? Lol
