What Women Mean


Someone sent me this email and I thought it was funny. Wanted to pass it on. The picture? It's a woman acting like and animal to stop people from wearing fur. what has it got to do with the post? I don't know, sometimes, brides are beauty queens, sometimes a little like cave women, you know . . . not my bride, of course.
Words Women Use
FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
FIVE MINUTES
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
NOTHING
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually end in "Fine"
GO AHEAD
This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a nonverbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over"Nothing"
THAT'S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.
WHATEVER
It's a woman's way of saying . . . well, you don't want to know

don't forget...Really, which means you better re-think that. I am not sure that woman is being effective with her protest, she looks rabid. I wish the animal rights people were as passionate about children's rights. It is sad that a fur coat can raise more of a fuss then an beaten child. Sorry, I got a bit off subject.

VERY FUNNY.
Which really means it's not funny at all, and just you wait :)

Oh! I forgot the always useful
EYEROLL
This is another nonverbal cue that means she thinks your are an idiot, and this is the stupidest thing she's ever heard ;)

And I agree, Janette--it always amazes me that the very people who are rabid about deaths in Iraq and saving the baby whatever's (seals, turtles, miniature frogs . . .), are usually the same people who support the murder of human babies . . . they can't even see how illogical their beliefs are. Their eyes are blinded.

What I'm really enjoying is that the ladies are adding to the list.

Do you people have a class, or something? where do you learn these things?

Of course they have a class! My girls attend their "characteristics class" every night after they're tucked in. Even if they're fighting beforehand, they seem to be able to compare notes from the day or something, because they always seem to have new material.

I promise to never wear a woman as a coat.
