Re: Off Topic 2011

My manly tip of the moment:

When ever a woman wants to argue with you, just shut up and ignore her. Dead silence drives women up the wall. If they can't get a reaction from you, they feel defeated and eventually apologize to you and beg you to talk to them again.

Works on all women guaranteed.

That works both ways, though. The worst fights I have with my girl are when she gives me the stupid responses and I get more and more pissed that she's not realizing how upset the situation has made me.

Some Packer fan just came in and trolled the hell out of all the Vikings fans in our office. It was especially obnoxious.

Typical Packers fan

"VIKINGS SURE LOOKED GOOD LAST NIGHT, EH? HUH-HUH-HUH"

Everyone just gave him the stink eye.

Gotta admit, I kinda laughed.

I don't know man, I guess I am just different, I have mastered the art of tuning out stupid responses and nagging. I will simply zone out and go about my business. Very rarely get upset anymore, drives my wife insane that I don't get upset like most guys would.

Telling you now, don't ever try to explain crap to women, they will never understand, so don't even waste your energy. Just say what you got to say and keep it moving.

Trying to explain stuff to women is like playing the lottery, you have a 1 in million chance that she just might respond to you with something related to something you just said. More often then not though, it will be something stupid or something totally unrelated to the discussion.

Re: Off Topic 2011

Haha, thanks for the advice. I've picked a bit of that up along the way, but hearing (reading) some one else say it makes it ring more true. You're right though, especially for a person like me who likes to be knowledgeable about what I'm talking about. I try not to speak on topics I don't know much about, and if I do, I make it known that's just my uninformed opinion. So when I do talk, I want it to be taken seriously and understood. But with girls and women... a lot of **** goes over their head. I'm not trying to rag on females but that's just my experience. Not all, but most. Heck, the average person, male or female, what I'm talking about usually goes right over them too. And people wonder why I'm quiet or they don't understand me (I've been told I mumble). It's probably because midway through my sentence, I'm like forget this... lol.

Also, it's funny because I don't get angry or upset that easily or often either. Just those special occasions. When I do, she knows.

Sometimes it's tough having to contain things in. I want to share with my close friends or girlfriend, but OS does a good job of letting ya say whatever you want and people on here will generally get it.

Unusually warm in New England this week. Seems eerie.

Indian summers usually leads to brutal winters. At least that's my experience.

It would be worth trolling if that game was supposed to be close.

It got a little more out of hand than most thought it would last night, but it's not like it was a big game between two evenly matched teams.

Haha, that reminds me of an "incident" with a female friend online over the weekend. I know her from playing too much online euchre (I'm addicted), and she always tries to get me to meet her. I've told her too many times to count that I don't meet people (I've played over 5 years there and never met anyone, apparently it's quite common for them to meet and they even have gatherings throughout the year).

So anyways, she's a Packers fan, MSU fan, and has a kid, but let's face it even if I did meet people she would've been out by strike 2.

While playing a game together, this guy we were playing against was running his mouth about her. Apparently she has him on ignore because he had a picture of his girlfriends daughter in "suggestive attire" on his fb. Knowing that she had him on ignore, I just let him run his mouth because what do I care lol. Well she found out that he was talking **** and got all mad at me for not "defending her". In her rationale this means I support child abuse. Seriously, chick gave me an earful, and trying to explain I was just avoiding the drama didn't even make it close enough to her ear to be allowed in. I've never seen someone come to a stranger conclusion based on events in my life. But then later I realized she was just looking for any reason to fight because she's disgruntled about me refusing to meet her. Oh well. Sorry chick, I only play so much because of my euchre addiction, I didn't sign up for a dating service lol.

That....must taste interesting.

Turns out they basically taste like jumbo cocoa pebbles, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Re: Off Topic 2011

That is crazy man.......How in the hell did she find out anyway that the guy was talking crap about her ?

Interesting choice of question.

My choice would have been: "What's euchre, and why do you play it so often?"
