I don't mean to be obtuse, but, I never knew that men came with rules. Did you? I mean, really! They never read instructions or ask for directions, so how were we supposed to know that they had RULES ~ ferchrist'ssake! Now, you have to know, girlfriend, I didn't write this, but I had a serious laugh over it!!
I can only assume that this insurgency is a direct result of a lapse between sports events. Our current schedule is filled only with late into the night hockey and basketball playoffs. Baseball and football are in the offing, allowing some men the illusion that they have the time and intellectual prowess to compile a list of rules for women ~ for WOMEN!! Can you even believe it? I have often thought that men were all members of a suicide pact, but this proves it...without a shadow of a doubt.
But, worry not, Ladies, this list is a little like the Holy Grail. It will disappear along with all the Christmas toy assembly instructions for bicycles, trampolines, motor scooters, Little Miss Kitchens....well, you have your own long list.
So, grab your coffee and box of chocolates. I would give credit where credit is due to the poor fool who wrote this, but I don't know who he is or where he is...probably in his underground bunker somewhere, with a serious lack of oxygen since he didn't read the instructions on that either. Makes me feel a wee sorry for the bastards. They have no idea what is in store for them.
AT LAST A GUY HAS TAKEN THE TIME TO WRITE THIS ALL DOWN

Why are women like a hurricane?
Because when we arrive, we are wet and wild
and
When we leave, we take your house, your car, your kids and all yo' money
Scorched earth, ladies, scorched earth

Thank you ♥
I feel depressed living my life as a man after reading those rules. It may be because I'm gay I see women and especially men in different ways. There are no set rules or boundries when a person desires to communicate. That's what makes people interesting and attractive, the always unknown to every situation and the growth of love between two persons.
ReplyDeletePretty damn close :O
ReplyDeleteA lot of that stuff is true, and yes, I've told my girlfriend of 9 yrs that she was wrong, regardless of the consequences -- and I slept in the same bed. I'm not misogynistic, but I a guy who doesn't take any shit, even if it meant being put in the doghouse. So, yes, that is me. Especially the mind-reader part.
ReplyDeleteSome of this is certainly true, and of-course I do believe it somewhat varies between men. I certainly am a firm believer in honesty, but not brutality... as in brutally honest. I think in a relationship, both should meet in the middle, if possible. Thanks for sharing this, and have a wonderful day sweet soul. I for one know what the color Mauve is, and I'm straight! :P
