Unit 60
Between Men and Women
Men's Declaration 1
1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes -- enough
2. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy 2 is what your girlfriends are for.
3. If you think you are fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We've been tricked before!
4. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know how to do it, just do it yourself.
5. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.
6. If it itches 3, it will be scratched 4. We do that.
7. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing", we will act like nothing is wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the trouble.
8. Beer is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.
9. Women, learn to work the toilet seat. 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.
10. Thank you for reading 5 this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch 6 tonight, but did you know? It's fun like camping 7.
