".... I think there is where you have me confused."

Because... ?

"For a start I don't think... seriously, my missus can confirm that!!"

So that means you only think you are confused... but if you don't think, you couldn't have arrived at your first premise of thinking you are confused because...
Ahhhh, crap, now I'm confused!!

".. as for the comprehension... you think your the only one?"

The only one what? Are you trying to confuse me?

"... haven't I said thinking is a bad habit."

At the risk of overthinking this, here are some possible answers...

1) So is smoking, but I've had no luck in giving that up either.
2) I'll have to think about that before I can answer.
3) I can't hear anything you've said, but most of time I can decipher what you write.
4) Why, did you forget you said that?

"Me I learnt how to stop and accept what I couldn't comprehend. Some good phrases like .... happens, grow roses."

Does this mean you do NOT accept what I've been saying, because you DO comprehend it?

"....happens, grow roses"

This leads us into examining another philosophical question: Does the Animal kingdom only exist to serve as food processors for the Plant kingdom?

"The High IQ'ers .... run."

That's right, just you try to run away, you little buggers... 'cause I'm a coming for ya!! You can hide, but you can't run!
