There's only one thing that men are looking for. We think about it all the time, as much as 80% of our time awake (and who knows how much time asleep).

We desire it so much, not just because it's genetically and instinctually wired into our minds, but because without it, we really feel like we have no purpose in life - silly things like work and money mean pretty much nothing compared to it.

When seeking a relationship, it's constantly on our minds, and some things make us want it even more - a glance across the table, the feeling of contact while leaning against each other on the couch or at the theatre, the fresh smell of her hair or perfume... it all makes us guys desire it so much, it can occasionally become unbearable.

Yes, without food, us guys would be pretty much aimless, because not much else matters...

[ThatReallyHurt]

Fair enough!



(Sadly there's an inconsistence in 'desire to make us happy' and 'being able to put down the toilet lid'... )

That's because putting a toilet seat down isn't as important as food. Especially at 3AM when it's very dark.

LOL!

Fist of all I want to tell you that I love you Gav.

Now I know that this is not a democracy in your eyes. You are probably used to English style imperialism. We are just trying to have fun here. As the assistant manager here you should love us more.

I feel that you want to be politically correct American style but come on... Being politically correct in my opinion just means replacing honor and loyalty with policy and procedure.

Do you realize that by keeping me down you are silencing the voice of Black America?

I love you Gav so please consider what I am saying.

[ReverseLunge]

Just evaluate the reverselunge rules thread, and tell me that a certain scotsman isnt thin skinned.

I thank you kindly for watching my back but it's hopeless. He is the assistant manager here and he can do as he pleases. And in the future please be very careful when you confront him. He has the power to make you dissapear with 2 clicks of a mouse.

I'm starting to feel like I'm lowering the property value here.

[Mr Epee]

I'm an assistant manager!
I drive a Dodge Stratus!
People are afraid of me!

[Have At You]

Fair enough!

Perhaps, in this modern era, the obligation should go both ways. Men should put the seat down for women, and women should lift the seat up for men. If we're going to impose an obligation on one sex alone, that's just unfair.

Or just plant a bush outside for your guy to use... Problem solved!

how about keep the seat and the lid down and I sit on the lid and she sits on me and we both get equal amounts of equality?

Meanwhile, I'd like to point out the Ignore function, freely available to us all. Why, I had a certain person on the list, and never felt bothered at all! Finally removed him/her/it from the list, and look what ugliness surfaced. I think I'll go back to Ignoring again. It was working out nicely.

Ditto that. Cept at random times I remove him/her/it just to see what kind of funny non-sense I can find. While some people find those posts funny, a few others probably find them annoying, or even offensive. I speak from personal experience - there were some things that I just don't find funny. I'm glad Gav closed whatever threads he did. The water cooler is still loaded with fun, is it not?

There was a young girl from Hong Kong
Whose cervical cap was a gong.
She said with a yell,
As a shot rang her bell,
"I'll give you a ding for a dong!"

AHAHAHA... oh boy, that was great.

Is it just me, or is RL so much more fun ever since he changed his avatar from the airplane? I think that it lets people know that RL is really a light-hearted person who just has an aggressive sense of humor.

Seriously, I don't care anymore about his stuff. Some of the closings by Gav were by necessity (like the 'penis' thread), but some closings were a bit odd. The 'trying to keep the black man down' thread I think was more personal for Gav, but I don't think it was offensive to anybody on the forum.

Of course, this doesn't mean that I like RL... that would be just weird.

Hi!

Never mind, we'll never understand you men either...

Aww... you know, to make a normal man happy can be summed up in 5 simple rules. Let´s see how many you can list on your own, and I will fill in the rest.


Have a nice time!

RL's rhyme truly rocked.

As for DFP, I think he needs to tone it down and go give himself a whiskey enema.

[Moonitic]

Craig owns the board & has trusted Gav (here) & others (on other parts of the board) to help him make sure everyone has a good time, but still obeys the rules. If you don't like the rules, you are certainly welcome to leave. No one is forced to remain. Some people just want to start a fight, then cry that they are being treated unfairly. That's dishonest, childish & really lame. Take responsibility for yourself.

By the way, Have, how about a compromise? Both sexes should shut the toilet lid--period. Then, as the need arises, each one can lift whatever portion they need to do their business. Very neutral. Works very well in my house.

The first three rules involve sex and the next two rules don't count.

How can women complain we're hard to understand? Sure you might think it's shallow and over-simplistic, but really who complains about simple things? I know I can make my dog absolutely ecstatic just by picking up the ball and throwing it, but however simple that is it still makes me happy to play with him.

Just do like most of you already do and think of guys as overly-simple to please machines that will do a lot of stuff for easy treats!

I never complain. I've successfully figured it out and am a happy woman.

I'd quip back a tongue-in-cheek "Is there anything else men do?" but I wouldn't want to insult the great hard working men who do projects and honey-dos around the house. So I'm not going to say that!
