It is only common courtesy that you should leave the seat on the toilet UP when you are done. 2. If you are cooking a special dinner for a man, be sure to include something from each of the four major male food groups: Meat, Fried, Beer, and Red. 3. Don't make him hold your purse in the mall. 4. Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary in many of the fine bars and fraternities throughout the country, not all men are cretins deserving your contempt. 5. Shopping is not fascinating. 6. When he asks for a threesome with you and your best friend, he is only joking. 7. Unless the answer is yes. 8. In which case, can he videotape it? 9. If you REALLY want a nice guy, stop dating good-looking assholes. 10. The man is ALWAYS in charge of poking the campfire with a stick and/or tending the grill. 11. Trying to provoke a large, dangerous-looking felon from across the room is not funny. 12. Money does not equate love. Not even in Nevada. 13. Any attempt by a man to prepare food, no matter how feeble (ie microwaving a burrito, fixing Spaghetti, etc.) should be met with roughly the same degree of praise a parent might shower upon their infant when it walks for the first time. 14. Those male models with perfect bodies are all gay. Accept it. 15. He heard you the first time. 16. You know, YOU can ask HIM out too.... Let's spread the rejection around a little. 17. If you truly want honesty, don't ask questions you don't really want he answer to. 18. Of COURSE he wants another beer. 19. The guy doesn't ALWAYS have to sleep on the wet spot. 20. Dogs good. Cats bad. 21. Any sort of injury involving the testicles is not funny. 22. If he has to sit through "Legends of the Fall", you have to sit through "Showgirls". 23. "Fine." is not an acceptable way to end an argument. 24. Do not question a man's innate navigational abilities by suggesting he stop for directions. 25. He was not looking at that other girl. 26. Well, okay...maybe a little. 27. Okay, so what! He was looking at her. Big deal. Like you never looked at another guy.... 28. There is nothing inherently wrong with the word "tit". 29. He is the funniest, strongest, best-looking, most successful man you have ever met. 30. And all your friends think so too. Especially the cute ones. 31. Your (select appropriate item:) butt/boobs/hair/makeup/legs look fine. As a matter of fact, it/they look damn good. Stop asking. 32. If you want a satisfying sex life, you will NEVER fake an orgasm. 33. It is not necessary to discuss the heaviness of your menstrual flow with him. 34. Remember: that Nair bottle looks an awful lot like shampoo if left in the shower. 35. Two words: Blow job. Learn it. Live it. Love it. 36. Dirty laundry comes in several categories: Looks fine/smells fine; Looks fine/smells bad; Looks dirty/smells fine. Unless you intend to wash it, do not try to disrupt piles organized in this manner. 37. Yes, Sharon Stone / Pamela Anderson / Cindy Crawford is prettier than you. Just like Brad Pitt / Antonio Banderas / Keanu Reeves is better looking than him. But since neither one of you is going to be dating any of these people, love the one you're with. 38. Of course size matters, and boy does he have the granddaddy of them all 39. His (fill in appropriate selections:) bald spot / beer gut / impossibly thick glasses / impotency / scabby rash, is cute. 40. Don't hog the covers. 41. Watching football is a major turn-on for you. But please wait until the half-time show to act upon that... 42. He does not just want to be friends. 43. A successful date always starts with the woman uttering the sentence: "You know, why don't we just skip the expensive dinner and stay here having freaky circus sex all night?" By Devaraju Kanchi, Recruitment specialist at Makrotech | BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO... especially when you share the same major! | Add a comment » | Started by Devaraju Kanchi, Recruitment specialist at Makrotech | PSYCHOLOGY: Girl accuses guy of just using her as a substitute for his Mother. SOCIOLOGY: Each claims to have been oppressed in the relationship. RELIGION: Each prays for reconcilliation and/or curses God ARCHAEOLOGY: One tries to bury the past, and accuses the other of trying to dig it up. THEATRE: "OH MY GOD! Life is... ENDED... as we KNOW it!" BIOLOGY: "You just wanted to get in my genes!" PHYSICS: Both resign themselves to the fact that what goes up must come down. JOURNALISM: "Today was the end of an era. Jack, 19, and Jill, 18, called an end to their relationship of 2 weeks..." WOMEN'S STUDIES: "HE did it!" BUSINESS: Both decide that they're spending way too much money together, and that it's simply cheaper to be single. ITALIAN: "Mama Mia!" HISTORY: Each party argues the breakup was caused by something the other party did in the past. GEOGRAPHY: Both people decide to simply move far away to avoid each other. ANATOMY: "I never liked your body anyway." ECONOMICS: One party demands more than the other can supply. ENGLISH: Each writes the other a perfect breakup letter, complete with introduction, thesis, body, and conclusion, that doesn't really say anything substantively intelligible. EDUCATION: Both concede that the relationship was a learning experience. COMPUTING: "Man, this bytes -- we just couldn't interface" and/or "His hard drive was more like a floppy." E. ENGINEER.: "It's just so shocking... I'm sure there are positives and negatives, but..." [okay, yes, I know you're groaning ;-)] ARCHITECTURE: "There just wasn't much to build on anyway..." JEWISH STUDIES: "OY! You should feel so guilty!" PHILOSOPHY: If 2 people break up in a dorm and there's no one to witness the breakup, are they really single? ZOOLOGY: They were able to mate like banshees, but lacked sophisticated communication skills. PHYS. ED.: They punch each other out in frustration. CHEMISTRY: They turn to hard drugs to relieve the pain. COUNSELING: Each urges the other to "get help!" MUSIC: Each utilizes an operatic lament (or, in some parts, a country song) to express his or her sorrow. LAW: They sue each other for breach of a pre-dating agreement. By Devaraju Kanchi, Recruitment specialist at Makrotech | An English poem! | Add a comment » | Started by Suhasini Deshpande, Senior Executive- HR at a Telecom OSS Company | We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes, But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes. One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese, Yet the plural of moose should never be meese. You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice, Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice. If the plural of man is always called men, Then shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen? If I speak of my foot and show you my feet, And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet? If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth, Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth? Then one may be that, and three would be those, Yet hat in the plural would never be hose, And the plural of cat is cats, not cose. We speak of a brother and also of brethren, But though we say mother, we never say methren. Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him, But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim! Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England . We take English for granted, but if we explore its paradoxes, We find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, Grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend. If you have a bunch of odds and ends And get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what other language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? We ship by truck but send cargo by ship. We have noses that run and feet that smell. We park in a driveway and drive in a parkway. And how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, While a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language In which your house can burn up as it burns down, In which you fill in a form by filling it out, And in which an alarm goes off by going on. And, in closing, if Father is Pop, how come Mother's not Mop? And if people from Poland are called Poles Then people from Holland should be Holes And the Germans, Germs. And lets not forget the Americans, who changed s to z, but that's another story.
