THE GUYS' RULES:
AT LAST A GUY HAS TAKEN THE TIME TO WRITE THIS ALL DOWN.
FINALLY THE GUYS' SIDE OF THE STORY.
WE ALWAYS HEAR "THE RULES" FROM THE FEMALE SIDE.
NOW HERE ARE "THE RULES"
FROM THE MALE SIDE.
THESE ARE OUR RULES! :)
1. MEN ARE NOT MIND READERS. WE REALLY DON'T THINK ABOUT WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND UNLESS YOU
SAY IT AND THEN IT'S, AT BEST, A 50-50 CHANCE
2. SHOPPING IS NOT A SPORT.
AND NO, WE ARE NEVER GOING TO THINK
OF IT THAT WAY.
3. ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT.
LET US BE CLEAR ON THIS ONE:
SUBTLE HINTS DO NOT WORK!
STRONG HINTS
DO NOT WORK!
OBVIOUS HINTS DO NOT WORK!
"THE LOOK" DOES NOT WORK!
JUST SAY IT!
4. YES AND NO ARE PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWERS TO ALMOST EVERY QUESTION.
5. COME TO US WITH
A PROBLEM ONLY IF YOU WANT HELP SOLVING IT. THAT'S WHAT WE DO.
SYMPATHY IS WHAT YOUR GIRLFRIENDS ARE FOR.
6. A HEADACHE
THAT LASTS FOR A WEEK IS A PROBLEM
SEE A DOCTOR.
7. IF YOU WON'T DRESS LIKE THE VICTORIA'S
SECRET GIRLS,
DON'T EXPECT US TO ACT LIKE SOAP OPERA GUYS.
8. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE FAT, YOU PROBABLY ARE.
DON'T
ASK US.
9. IF SOMETHING WE SAID CAN BE INTERPRETED TWO WAYS AND ONE OF THE WAYS MAKES YOU SAD OR ANGRY, WE MEANT THE
OTHER ONE .
10. YOU CAN EITHER ASK US TO DO SOMETHING OR TELL US HOW YOU WANT IT DONE. NOT BOTH.
IF YOU ALREADY
KNOW BEST HOW TO DO IT, JUST DO IT YOURSELF.
11. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, PLEASE SAY WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO SAY DURING COMMERCIALS.
12.
CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS DID NOT NEED DIRECTIONS AND NEITHER DO WE.
13. ALL MEN SEE IN ONLY 16 COLORS.
PEACH, FOR EXAMPLE,
IS A FRUIT, NOT A COLOR!
PUMPKIN IS ALSO A FRUIT. WE
HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MAUVE IS.
14. IF IT ITCHES, IT WILL BE SCRATCHED. WE DO
THAT.
15. IF WE ASK WHAT IS WRONG AND YOU SAY "NOTHING," WE WILL ACT LIKE NOTHING'S WRONG.
WE KNOW YOU ARE LYING,
BUT IT IS JUST NOT WORTH THE HASSLE.
16. IF YOU ASK A QUESTION YOU DON'T WANT AN ANSWER TO, EXPECT AN ANSWER YOU DON'T
WANT TO HEAR.
17. WHEN WE HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING YOU WEAR IS FINE...
REALLY.
18. DON'T
ASK US WHAT WE'RE THINKING ABOUT.
19. YOU HAVE ENOUGH CLOTHES.
20. YOU HAVE TOO MANY SHOES.
21. I AM
IN SHAPE. ROUND IS A SHAPE!
22. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS.
YES, I KNOW, I HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH TONIGHT;
BUT
DID YOU KNOW MEN REALLY DON'T MIND THAT? IT'S LIKE CAMPING.

A few great movie quotes:
Melvin Udall from "As Good as it Gets"
Receptionist: "How do you write a woman so well?
Udall: "I think of a man, and I take away all reason and accountability"
Also from "As good as it Gets"
Udall at the steps of Helen hunt's front door telling her that he loves her
Hunt: "Why can't I have a regular boyfriend that doesn't go nuts on me"?
Hunt's mom: "Everybody wants that dear...it doesn't exist."
Dr. Phil: "All wives are dissapointed with their husbands"
I can't believe it another good one:
Three guys are drinking in a bar when a drunk comes in, staggers up to them, and points at the guy in the middle, shouting,
"Your mom's the best sex in town!"
Everyone expects a fight, but the guy ignores him, so the drunk wanders off and bellies
up to the bar at the far end.
Ten minutes later, the drunk comes back, points at the same guy, and says, "I just did your
mom, and it was sw-e-et!"
Again the guy refuses to take the bait, and the drunk goes back to the far end of the bar.
Ten
minutes later, he comes back and announces, "Your mom liked it!"
Finally the guy interrupts. "Go home, Dad, you're drunk!"
