The Man Rules

My least favorite class was my most enjoyable one today. Strange how that can happen sometimes. The reason it was my favorite today was the way my professor started out with a handout called "The Man Rules". I was laughing the entire time! It is a list of rules (all numbered #1) that some guy compiled of what he thought were some of the most important rules according to men. I would like to share some of my favorite:

• Men are NOT mind readers
• Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If its up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
• 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!
• Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we are for. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
• Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
• If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.
• If something we said can be interpreted two ways one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
• Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we
• 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 no idea what mauve is.
• 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.

This list helped me understand the male species, and what they think of females, a little better. I hope you got a laugh out of some of these like I did.
