Rhinos Don't Stop Short Twice, or, Lifes Little Lessons...
When your wife asks if the dress looks good on her, say yes. Don't say 'it would have 5 pounds ago'. Believe me on this, k?

If you're with a pretty girl, but a real beauty walks in and the pretty one catches you bug eyed drooling and she asks, "honestly, is she better looking than me?" Don't be honest.

Next...

Silly rabbit. You're just now learning to tell women what they want to hear instead of the truth?

I've learned that brutal honesty is the best policy. Sure, I caught hell for it in the beginning, but now I don't get asked those stupid questions.

When she asks "Honey, can you do me a favor?" Make sure to respond with "What do you want" and not with "Yes"... They all have sneaky little plans to ask you to do something really big as a "favor", but if you don't want to do something really big they will down grade the "favor" into something smaller... If not, at least you have an out.

If they ask "can you the dishes/floors/whatever"... "No" is not an answer.

When they spend more than 15 minutes "getting ready" you are required to comment on how "nice they look" even if they look awful.

(are these just suppose to be about SOs or can it be about anything?)

Oerdin, I thought the Rhino bit was clever...a little credit, huh? eh?

Che, you don't get any, right? Besides, all those hot little commie chicks are lesbians anyway.

i don't know where you find girls like that. mine doesn't put me in the situation of asking "does me look fat?" or any of the classic dangerous ones.

although, when she's upset, nothing i do is right:
"can i do anything to make you feel better?"
"can you (asks something impossibly out of my control)"
"well, i can try..."
"what good are you?"

"Too much makeup" always worked for me. That is, if by "working" you mean ruining the evening.

"Ok, the Rhino bit was cute. "

I was thinking of doing 'Heterosexual Rhinos don't stop short", but didn't have the guts.

Q Cubed, they have their moments don't they? Reason goes out the window and they give themselves up to contrary emotionalism. Coming down off such an episode, an old gf once told me, "we women have such problems", feeling sorry for herself. I stupidly replied, "yes, and we men have such women." Add that to my lifes little lessons...

I've been in similar situations where you just know that no matter what you say it will be the wrong thing. It doesn't matter if you say "Lovely weather we're having" she'll still find a way to criticize.

Azazel, you're not talking Tammy Fay sort of excess, are you? When that woman is done painting, she's a freak, barely human. Uggg. Though when she asked Jim Baker how she looked, I bet "like a freak" wasn't the answer.

"Too much makeup" is what you should say when a particular female keeps you waiting for too long.

( Maybe that's why I don't have too many girls. Nah, I think the fact that I am butt-ugly has more to do with it. )

Nothing to do with it, just ask Bill Gates.

There's a serious Jewish sect in Israel the men of which give thanks daily for not being born women. I'm with them, though I don't advertise. Hmm, I wonder if they get any...

Like any other male, I have no clue. I'm based in logic, which limits me to the reasonable.

they're just so darned wonderful though.

but crazy.

a friend of mine was asked by his gf as to whether they would have gone out of he were a she and she a he, or if they were both shes or both hes
he answered correctly, which was "yes"... he surmised this because she's a firm believer in the soul mates thing.

I'm going to find me a woman who doesn't mind me calling her fat, and doesn't care if I don't think she's not the most beautiful woman in the world.

Q Cubed, I'd have answered yes to the lesbian thing, no to the homosexual thing. In fact, if I was a girl, I'd be a lesbian. Damn straight. A virgin lesbian.

Dissident, very best of luck to you in you endeavor. Along the same lines, I hope to one day ride a unicorn.

When she asks you and you weren't paying attention, you are infinitely better off asking "What?" than saying yes.

THAT is a really advanced concept Kirnwaffen. You should be heralded as a wise man, and sit upon the mountain. In other words, I like it.

If she asks you if you believe that there is only "one true love" say yes and that she is the one. (Known from experience)

Girls know that guys are lying to them when they use corny lines like that. The thing is in the back of their minds they know there's that 1% chance he's telling the truth so they agree to go along with the lie.

There are some advantages to dating 15 year olds.

It might just be easier to date the most beautiful woman in the world than to find that woman.
