    Grabbing some popcorn. This one is going to be fun to watch. :bigsmile:

    Hey Dave,

    If you'll share your popcorn I'll bring the drinks. Whatcha drinking?

    What happened to the wet T-shirts, sammiches and beer?

    Diet Pepsi. But would much prefer Bacardi and Diet Coke :drinker:

    I have the wet t-shirt, Bonita has the sammiches, have you any Bacardi?
    Edited to add: and BEER, let us not forget the beer.

    Lemme see...I have American Honey, Canadian Mist, Wild Turkey, Smirnoff....why is the rum always gone?

    But seriously though, we all complain about our significant others at some point or another. I'd be lying if I never ranted to my best friend "do you know how stupid my bf is..."

    BUT I'm not about to post a big rant about him to an internet forum full of strangers. I think if we're having a problem in our relationship, I owe it to him to talk to him about it first. And if it's just something petty I need to vent about (i.e. "he always leaves the toilet seat up!" or "he chews with his mouth open sometimes!") then I'll text a friend or something. Not throw him under the bus to a bunch of people on the interwebs.

    Same with him. I'm sure he rants about stupid things I do to his friends (i.e. "she takes up the WHOLE bathroom counter with all her lady stuff" or "her shoes are EVERYWHERE") but if it's a real issue, he comes to me first, not the world wide web.

    The level headed responses to this thread are heartening. I was getting ready to start up a chapter of NO MA'AM

    Also, OP, I would like to congratulate you on never having the need to vent or complain about your man. Where was he manufactured and how can I get me one?

    I would also like to note that for some people, the public forums might be their only outlet for venting and getting advice. They might not have close friends for whatever reason, so it's really not fair to judge them without knowing all the facts. As the wise thug on COPS once said "No man hits my sister unless it's her husband!!!"...yeah, that has nothing to do with this, but that's my all time favorite quote from that show.

    Thank you, I accept your congratulatory statement. You know how I did it? I didn't stay with the dudes that I wasn't satisfied with.

    I totally understand the need to vent. We all do it. I just don't know why it is so frequently at the expense of their men. I have fought with mine. Many times. And the venting that I do afterwards is often about how I feel so stupid for having a fight where I was clearly not acting rationally!

    So, yes, it's nice to be able to throw yourself a pity party, but I don't get why it's never their fault, always the man's.

    And wait... I thought the interwebs existed solely to cast judgment on others....

    Catch you on a bad day? No, obviously the participants in the Special Olympics aren't "retarded." I'm sure they are quite special to a good many people and vastly morally superior to those such as myself, who feel there is humor to be found in everything.
    No, I'm not having a bad day at all. Your comment is offensive and your smugness is unbecoming. You may think your statement was "humor", but I find no humor in it.
    Well that's good to hear. I repeat my offer to remove the comment.

    Please do so. I must have missed your offer to remove the comment. It's unfortunate that you're doing it sarcastically and not because you believe it was wrong. Here's a quote for your edification (and for others who may be reading this):
    The R-word is OFFENSIVE
    “The word retard is considered hate speech because it offends people with intellectual and developmental disabilities as well as the people that care for and support them. It alienates and excludes them. It also emphasizes the negative stereotypes surrounding people with intellectual and developmental disabilities; the common belief that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities should be segregated, hidden away from society, which, in my opinion, is really old fashioned.” – Karleigh Jones, Special Olympics

    /threadjack

    As a former special ed teacher..>THANK YOU. I also apologize to OP for the off topic comment, but I think it's important to educate people.

    It's cool, cause this new bra makes my girls look amazing! Really, how else am I supposed to hold on to my man?!

    You hold onto him with the girls? Do they have suction cups like some kinda octo-boobies?

    Lmao---of all the posts I've seen from you...this one is just perfect! Sending fr when I finish reading thread.

    Must buy more rum. I could get behind the Smirnoff, though.

    I have always been told when/if I was complaining about my man is....The next one you get may be 1000x worse than this one....So, be happy with what you've got!! That is not always true but why chance it right?

    P.S. Go make your amazing man a sandwich, and let him rest his beer in your cleavage.

    Dang, I don't have enough cleavage to rest a beer in without major spillage (not that my husband would be heartbroken if I were standing front of him in a wet t-shirt, particularly beer-dampened.)

    I make a damn good sammich...but don't know if I have enough cleavage to rest a beer in. Hmmm should I rush out to try it?

    Only if you are going to take a picture!

    Only for you!

    I will bring the Bacardi. I make sure I am always well stocked on that. Milk & bread, well that is another story. :laugh:

    Yes, clearly the point was to get marriage proposals from random strangers on the internet. *face palm*

    Is that how you do your trolling, honey?

    Priceless.

    Thanks for a great read this morning :laugh:
    Listen, I'm just as emotional and hormonal as the next gal. You know what I do about it? I apologize to my man for acting crazy and not listening to my rational brain. You know what I get in return? Kindness, support and hot action! Give it a shot, you may like it.
    ^^True story!!
