Man escapes alimony after wife admits she's a genie
KHOU ^ | 10-18-2014

Posted on 10/20/2014 1:00:00 PM PDT by Snickering Hound

This story about a divorce in the United Arab Emirates begins in not-so-unusual fashion: A wife refuses to sleep with her husband, and he is not pleased.

Then it gets weird: She tells him to talk to her parents, who explain that their daughter can't have sex with him because she is, in fact, a supernatural creature called a jinn that the BBCequates to a genie. This results in divorce. But if the excuse was a tall tale, the joke's on the ex-wife, because a court in Dubai ruled that she is not entitled to alimony, reports Gulf News.

Reason? She wasn't honest about the genie matter.

The Djinn [and their capriciously evil minions, the salamanders] are feared by mooses.

Swive? That’s the present tense of swave, as in swave and deboner.

There is one thing and one thing only that separates a genuine alpha male from his Beta brethren.

“Can you handle a Redhead?”

If the answer is yes, then you have achieved the pinnacle of masculinity. Alpha. Guts, bravery, sheer willpower, physical prowess...all these are a requirement.

Brunetts and Blonds? Normal human creatures. Redheads? Real ones? Something beyond that ;)

Most men don't make it past the first date.

Ahhhh....so romantic.

Au contraire! “physical prowess” covers that. Has many aspects.

I’m not sure if it’s the genetics or what. But because of it, any dude that can handle a Redhead can walk into the worst biker dive bar without fear. Pick the biggest baddest looking HA in the place, tell him your wife’s a Redhead and you drink free all night.

Not sure if it’s a fear or respect thing. Most of the time it’s like they sense it. Fellow badassery or something. Doesn’t matter if you’re 6-3 and 250 pounds or a computer geek looking guy with a pocket protector. If you can handle a Redhead, you are at the top of the food chain and they know it ;)

Hmmm.

Perhaps that’s why nobody’s ever decked hubby, even when he desperately deserved it.

;D

[the 1%ers do seem to like him, oddly enough]

Actually I’m not completely kidding about that. Partly for dramatic effect, yea ;) but BS aside I used to know some burly types that I literally heard say, one to another ‘He’s Ok, he’s with a Redhead..” Not EVEN kidding about that.

So there is really something to it.

Huh.

Suddenly, the last 21 years of my life makes a little more sense.

God knows I’ve provoked plenty of them to murder, often enough, and no one’s ever laid a hand on me.

:)

[just took a 6 foot boa to a biker Halloween bash, filled with avowed snake phobics...and won first prize]

I wonder what else I can get away with?

Seriously? Anything you damn well feel like. It’s is pretty much expected that redheads are gonna do crazy sXit and there aren’t a lot of people willing to risk their health or hearing to call’em on it.

Come on! You KNOW this stuff! ;)

Then what I say next will not horrify you.

I’ve half a mind to bleach it blond or dye it brown, just to see how long it takes for somebody to kick his ass.

[empiric evidence mixed with twisted curiosity, ya know]

;D

Apparently, I’ve not been aware of all this pigmented power I wield.

Next summer will be fun.
