LADIES - Learn The RULES!!!!!!

OK LADIES - LEARN THE RULES!!!!!!

The Rules developed by National Fairness to Men Organization. This time like the "United States Constitution" these rules are developed by Men. We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side.

These are our rules for all women to live by! Please note ... these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!

Rules for Women to Live By

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us bitching about you leaving it down.

1. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again!

1. Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.

1. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be!

1. Don't cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair and by then you're stuck with her.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. 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! Just say it!

1. We don't remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on a calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.

1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. 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.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

1. Check your oil! Please.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We refuse to answer.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

1. Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.

1. 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.

1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials..

1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.

1. ALL men see only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.

1. 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.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. It is neither in your best interest or ours to take the quiz together. No, it doesn't matter which quiz.

1. BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.

Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight, but did you know we really don't mind that, it's like camping.

After receiving your answers to our survey, you have won the grand prize!!! But, due to an unexpectedly long day at Kelso's Bar&Grill, funding has been reduced and prizes are now postponed indefinately!

What's for dinner?

I caught him a few times eating right out of the pan over the sink....

That reminds me of "Bachelor's Salad:" one quarter of a head of iceberg lettuce, seasoned with Italian dressing from a squirt bottle, and eaten over the kitchen sink. I heard this from a friend.

told him he doesn't even do the dishes....

I can explain. He's just trying to save you the trouble of cleaning that dish. And save on water. He knows as well as you that you'll be the one doing it.

He means well. It's a damned hard habit to break. Dishwashers are strange and ominous to us. So much can go wrong...

Yes. My grandfather came of age in the twenties, and he LOVED women with short hair, thought they looked great (actually, I'm sure he really thought they were "fast".) ;)

My sweetie doesn't care whether my hair is long or short so I keep it short, but if I made him haul enough water for me to wash it while we're camping and backpacking, he would care soon enough.

LOL, Some of these are very funny, I doubt my Wife will think so, But hey?

Here is a few jokes my sister sent me that I think the ladies here will find funny.

***************************

____________________________________

A couple is lying in bed. The man says, "I am going to make you the happiest woman in the world" The woman says, "I'll miss you."

______________________________

"It's just too hot to wear clothes today," Jack says as he stepped out of the shower. "Honey, what do you think the neighbors would think if I mowed the lawn like this?" "Probably that I married you for your money," she replied.

_______________________________

He said - Since I first laid eyes on you, I've wanted to make love to you really badly. She said - Well, you succeeded.

__________________________________

He said - Shall we try swapping positions tonight? She said - That's a good idea...you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa and fart.

__________________________________

He said - What have you been doing with all the grocery money I gave you? She said - Turn sideways and look in the mirror

_______________________________

Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man?
A: A rumor

_______________________________

One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his sweatshirt. Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me, "What setting do I use on the washing machine?" "It depends," I replied. "What does it say on your shirt?" He yelled back, "University of Oklahoma." And they say blondes are dumb....

___________________________________

A man and his wife, now in their 60's, were celebrating their 40th weddinganniversary. On their special day a good fairy came to them and said that because they had been such a devoted couple she would grant each of them a very special wish. The wife wished for a trip around the world with her husband. Whoosh! Immediately she had airline/cruise tickets in her hands. The man wished for a female companion 30 years younger....... Whoosh....immediately he turned ninety!!! Gotta love that fairy!

___________________________

A WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST:
She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.
Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box.
Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week.
Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl.
And her husband is on the back of the milk carton.

Deal. As long as you AIM, there's no problem! ;P

1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.

Then again, he thought he was in the West Indies....nuff said!

sometimes when a woman gets of a CERTAIN age....it does look better when it's cut shorter

This age varies somewhat between women, but in no case is it lower than 88 years.

long does not require down to the posterior. If the haircut can appear on a man with no problem, then the hair is too short.

There's that hilarious scene in the War Of The Roses where Michael Douglas saws off the heels of his wife's pumps that come to mind.

Dear Abby:

My husband is a liar and a cheat. He has cheated on me from the
beginning. When I confront him, he denies everything.

What's worse is everyone knows he cheats on me. It is so humiliating!

Also, since he lost his job two years ago he hasn't even looked for a
new one. All he does is sit around the living room in his underwear and
watch TV while I work to pay the bills.

And since our daughter went away to college he doesn't even pretend to
like me. He keeps calling me a lesbian. What should I do?

Signed Clueless








Dear Clueless:

Dump him. You're a New York senator now. You don't need him anymore.
;-)

This is the best list I've read... probably ever or at least since the "Texas Citizenship" list I read awhile back. No, this definitely is 1. !!! :-D

Thanks much.

This is a must read for the wife, too. Don't know what she'll think. She'll probably just shake her head and say, "MEN"!
