19 Things a Man Should Never Do in the Company of a Woman
www.msn.com ^ | By The Editors of Marie Claire

Posted on 02/26/2008 11:28:54 AM PST by Lucky9teen

The editors of Marie Claire advise against bad tips, blow-drying, and cleaning your gun. We'll take their word for it.

19. Reveal how much your car cost.

18. Clean your gun.

17. Polish high school trophies (which you still have displayed).

16. Refer to your mother as your best friend.

15. Rap.

14. Check out our assistant/roommate/the baby-sitter.

13. Question our footwear.

12. Blow-dry your hair.

11. Tip less than 20 percent.

10. Celebrity impressions.

09. Impressions of us.

08. Forget to carry cash.

07. Flip it, flop it, swing it around, tug on it, adjust it, scratch it, or do anything that will remind us that it's just a goofy appendage and not a mystical source of pleasure and satisfaction.

06. Wii.

05. Boot and rally.

04. Scream—at the dog, at the guy who just stole your parking spot, at Bill Belichick. Because, no matter how much Belichick deserves it (cheater!), when we hear you raise your voice, we have an idea of what we're in for.

03. Talk about former exploits. Ever.

02. Use the words bitch, slut, tramp, or whore, unless referring to another man.

01. Tell us you're going to kiss us. (Just get on with it!)

Never, ever clean your gun on her rosewood coffee table.

That sort of thing is best done in the kitchen.

Don’t you just love walking down the sidewalk in big cities sidestepping those street oysters.

If this ain't #1, the list is bogus:

#1 Answer truthfully any question about weight, clothing, hair style or makeup application.

As well, #0 EVER comment on the hotness of another female.

05. Boot and rally.

Huh?

Nevermind. The woman is far too uppity.

Psychology behind this stupid list:

19. Reveal how much your car cost.

# We like money but don’t like to be told that we like money.

18. Clean your gun.

# Possibility of dying scares us.

17. Polish high school trophies (which you still have displayed).

# Your Success reminds us of our own failure.

16. Refer to your mother as your best friend.

# Loss of control in future.

15. Rap.

# This one actually is understanable.

14. Check out our assistant/roommate/the baby-sitter.

# ....and any other woman on the planet for that matter.

13. Question our footwear.

# Don’t be gay.

12. Blow-dry your hair.

# Don’t be gay.

11. Tip less than 20 percent.

# We like money and you having it and spending it.

10. Celebrity impressions.

# Lets keep this between You and Us - UBS.

09. Impressions of us.

# Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the Prettiest of them all?

08. Forget to carry cash.

# Show me the Money.

07. Flip it, flop it, swing it around, tug on it, adjust it, scratch it, or do anything that will remind us that it’s just a goofy appendage and not a mystical source of pleasure and satisfaction.

# Don’t do our job.

06. Wii.

# Shopping, drinking and dancing and strolling on the beach are so much more exciting.

05. Boot and rally.

# Understandable.

04. Scream—at the dog, at the guy who just stole your parking spot, at Bill Belichick. Because, no matter how much Belichick deserves it (cheater!), when we hear you raise your voice, we have an idea of what we’re in for.

# Masculinity is so threatning.

03. Talk about former exploits. Ever.

# Understanable.

02. Use the words bitch, slut, tramp, or whore, unless referring to another man.

# We like liars.

01. Tell us you’re going to kiss us. (Just get on with it!)

# Sweet!

That explains why the list is dumb.

They should stick to pies.

tell that to my wife. she doesn’t like them.
fortunately, she understands my love of them, and the necessity of having them around to defend home and family.
she goes out shooting with me a couple times a year, not because she enjoys it, but to make sure she remains familiar with them if she needs them.

“15. Rap.
14. Check out our assistant/roommate/the baby-sitter. “

From those wise sages, The Sugarhill Gang, and their breakout hit, RAPPER’S DELIGHT:

“If your girl starts acting up, then you take her friend!”

Wii is the video game that requires the player to hold an electronic device (user interface) that communicates with the game box. If you play bowling, then you hold the controller and make the motions of bowling for real, releasing a button after you have set up your throw. By releasing the button, you “release” your bowling ball. It really works. I have a distinct curve in real life, and that curve is reflected on the Wii. It’s great fun. The system includes bowling, golfing (fun, too), tennis, and baseball. There may be other games, too.

Wii is to virtual reality what Pong is to video games.
