4. Repeat after me:
"Yes, dear."

"You're right, dear."

"No, that dress does not make you look fat."

Repeat as necessary.

5. Boy, you got that third one right...
My first wife asked me once if a particular dress made her look fat.

I said, "It's not the dress, dear."

She became my ex-wife. :bounce:

30. Sword Form (samurai). But it's difficult to find a teacher.
Edited on Tue Jan-13-09 08:46 PM by Mike 03
Most of the other martial arts are easier to learn or even teach yourself, but sword form is more difficult.

36. How to hide large items you bought inside a small purse upon return from the store.
I can pretty much smoosh a complete outfit into my wallet.
Almost.

41. Not only do I use that line, but I usually deliver it w/ a p.o.'d tone,
as if to say, "How could you NOT remember this attractive item I have on! Didn't you ever NOTICE me wearing it before?!"

Men never do shit like that. Why, you won't find a more upfront, honest and open bunch of humans than men.

43. I am gratified to see that my marital arts thread
outlasted the martial arts one I copycatted. I am, however, surprised that there is only one post that mistook this thread for the other.

Copycat threads rule!
