I came across this forward recently and just loved it - so here it is...
The Man Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down - Finally , the guys' side of the story.
We always hear " the rules " from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side.
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
( FIRST & FOREMOST RULE)
2. 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 complaining about you leaving it down.
3. Sunday sports, It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
4. Crying is blackmail.
5. 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!
6. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
7. 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.
8. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.
9. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.
10. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one
11. 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.
12. Whenever possible, Ppease say whatever you have to say during commercials..
13. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
14. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have noidea what mauve is.
15. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
16. 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.
17. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
18. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine... Really.
19. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as Football or Hockey.
20. You have enough clothes.
21. You have too many shoes.
22. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
23. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.
Hahaha!! ROFL! :D :D
ReplyDeleteNote: No wonder Christopher Columbus "found" India! ;):p
@Hmm.. that's the first thing that came to mind as well :) I loved #16 - I do that to K!!
ReplyDeleteThis was funny, and for some reason i thought you came up with this rule list on your own and your source being ... you know who "what man"and I could hear him say everyone of it, it made it more funny:)
ReplyDeleteHa ha - "what man" abides by a lot of these rules :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way i am getting addicted to your blog, i have started checking on it regularly. Love it keep writing. can we ask for some topics of our own??
ReplyDeleteAnd i don't know how to figure this thing about signing as me:)
ReplyDelete@M - so when you post a comment, there is a small little box there which says comment as - so on your computer if S is signed in, it will comment as him unless you specifically choose your ID or Anonymous. Hope this helps. I aim to please so send me anything you think is interesting and I will try to write about it - he he.
ReplyDeleteThis was a really good one!! I enjoyed it and Mr. P abides by so many of these too ;o) or may be it's me!!! Haha!!
