In case you wondered, and are male - these are the rules we abide by. If you are a girl reading this, then you can just refresh your memory.
MEN RULES: Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note... these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. 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.
1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. 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!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a Problem. See a doctor.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 Days.
1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of them makes you sad or angry, then we meant the "other one "
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. 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.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. 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, besides we know you will bring it up again later.
1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine...really.
1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or golf.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Guys! Be careful not to aggravate your girlfriend TOO much; otherwise you're going to see scenes like these:
Romance... starts like this
but may end sooner than you think
Try to keep your thoughts off lingerie for a minute...
Hmm, I guess it's true that some guys have unrealistic expectations from a relationship. Your SO is supposed to be physically attractive, accept your interests, suppress her emotions, and play second fiddle to your TV. Meanwhile, you get to be a fatass who just doesn't give a shit about her hobbies, self esteem or thoughts. Puh-leeze. These lists aren't funny, and anyone who thinks they are is just sending out a strong signal to the world about how self-centered they are.
Here's a protip, in case you didn't pick up on it. If you don't want to have to read her mind, don't bitch when she expresses her emotions. I'm surprised you feel you need space- most women I know have enough respect that they wouldn't touch someone like you with a ten-foot-pole.
I know its supposed to be something funny but in actuality its pretty much true & that's not funny, its disturbing, its not right, its... many things, too many to say. Men are from Mars, Woman are from Venus, if women were like men then the world would be full of pigs (dogs, scum, a-holes... whatever you want to call them) Why is it, if women acted as men do they would be considered whores? How come men don't know its wrong to lie when they cheat? Or just because their not actually caught in the act, they think they haven't done anything wrong? Why do men lie about what they do? If you know its wrong then don't do it. If you know you f..ked up, then be a real man & admit to it. Have you ever thought if you actually treated someone with respect then maybe you would get it right back? If you have & you still don't get it then that person isn't worth it or the real attraction isn't there, your just settling for something. Attraction is one thing, but to be attracted & fall in love... True love is hard to find but you can't LOOK for it, I believe in time & at the right time it will COME to you. In the mean time don't expect a miracle, just remember, to keep what you have, realize they are who they are, that's why you are w/ them. If you expected something else then you shouldn't be with them. All men lie. They have their reasons. All women bitch, we have our reasons, too. Men are the #1 reason.
HOLA!!! wasup ?? just saw ur blog find it really kool,it really rocks man hey i've got this really kool!!nd krazyy kinda website check out the link below http://www.bigadda.com/Boss/quiz.php?type=web&uid=323
Burj Dubai has overtaken Canada’s CN Tower also which was the tallest standing free structure at 553 meters. I have blogged about it in more detail. You can check out here: http://desinotes.com/burj-dubai-races-past-cn-tower/ and also check this one
I'm curious, do they really think that THAT many people will move in when this city is completed? Or will it become the world's most expensive Ghost Town in human history?
...But hey, if you're wealthy now and you know your oil will eventually be gone building a luxury city like this is a pretty good idea (even if it is a risky bet) to create a steady revenue for the future.
At the pace that they're building all of these architectural wonders do you think they're trying to "finish" the city before the oil runs out? Do they know something we don't?
It seems that a number of you assume that Dubai is wealthy from oil reserves. This is not the case, have you not noticed that since the 1990's this city has become the ecomomic and financial hub of the middle east? Oil contributes only around 6% of GDP. And i think people will be moving in Peter, every apartment in the Burj Dubai was bought within 8 hours of going on sale. There is so much fuckin cash in this place its hard to fathom.
It is crime aginst hummanaity. if this building catches fire the people cannot evaccuate or come out of the building quickly to save there lives,half of the people would die due to suffocation which has occured due to smoke.This is harmfull for there lives, even if there are anysecurity measures, as security measures would not withstand humman errors.
I'm pretty sure that last little fellow is called a tapir. They're south-American and endangered, and aren't they gorgeous? I believe the stripes disappear before they're mature, and they're meant to be good swimmers.
Yes, Annie's right. Its a tapir's (Tapirus Terrestris) puppy. Here in Brazil they're most called "anta", and can be found in almost the entire South America. They're much friendly, you can literally hug them and feed by hand (they're herbivore). In my town's local zoo we had one female, she died few years ago. You can check Wiki out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapirus_terrestris (english) or http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anta (portuguese - in this page is depicted an puppy). And for the record, the site is amazing. I check it daily and always have a great time. Cheers!
These concerns surprisingly gained a lot of weight in the government...
"Surprisingly"..? Have you actually looked at the results of the sonic boom testing done at Oklahoma City in early 1964, and at White Sands later that year? We're not talking fuzzy green Luddite environmentalism here... we're talking what the FAA and Boeing concluded would be millions in payments for physical damages per overland flight.
The article misses the fact that Concorde did indeed fly successfully and accident free for a great many years. The TU144 was a great triumph both of soviet ingenuity, and soviet espionage, incorporating much of concorde's design. Whilst a Concorde is in a museum in Seattle it is far from being the only one preserved. One is at Filton, near Bristol, England, from where the first proving flights took off. Truth is, Concorde was a triumph that worked, first flying in 1969, in service 1976, and continuing until late 2003. An airliner that flew higher and faster than any other, ever. Whereas the Boeing SST was a pipedream that never materialised.
The interest of the governments may not have been as benign as the article implies. There is a story that - as a test - they once flew a Concorde out over the Norwegian Sea then had it cruise back over Britain at its normal height and speed, just to see how easy it would be to intercept. The answer was that it wasn't. It flew too high and too fast for anything in the UK to get to it before it had flown right across the country.
The noise problem was BAD. I used to work at Heathrow and many the time I stood outside Hatton Cross (tube) station as Concorde climbed into the sky. There was a longterm carpark between the station and the runway, which meant that Concorde passed over that even lower, and as the rumble of the plane died away you could always hear the blaring of the horns of the cars - their theft alarms triggered by the vibration. I often used to wonder how many travellers parked in there and got back to find that - for some unknown, to them, reason - their car batteries were flat.
soubriquet said: "The TU144 was a great triumph both of soviet ingenuity, and soviet espionage, incorporating much of concorde's design."
May be Concordes' design was stolen from USSR? Tu-144 has it's first flight 2 months earlier.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-144
"However, even if this were to be confirmed, the documents were early development plans and would not have permitted the USSR's engineers to come up with their own aircraft; the plans could only serve as a general indication of the work of the Concorde design team. Moreover, Soviet aircraft designers in the 1960s had significant experience building delta-shaped aircraft, which proved an efficient means of achieving Mach 2, and TsAGI, of which Andrei Tupolev was a graduate, had developed extensive data about such designs."
Yeah, yeah. I'll believe the US can build a craft comparable to Concorde when I see it build a V/STOL plane that isn't 100% craptacular (especially when compared to my country's brilliant AV-8B Harrier). Until then, forgive me for thinking that you're way out of your league here.
Dear friends: I uploaded some pictures of the SST Museum that my father took during our trip to Florida the summer of 1976. Hope you enjoy them, the link is: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8767849@N07/sets/72157618299890370/
I will be uploading more pictures of the SST Museum soon !!!!!

I like the rules but not the response. :)
ahahaha.
you'll hear from the feminists.
who came up with extreme ironing?!
The "funny" here hinges completely on the readers ability to identify with 13 year old boys.
The extreme ironing is crazy! The rhino is creepy, and the list is cool.

So according too these comments of the women, guys are imperfect and women can't do anything wrong?
Hmmmm......
