Random Rants ΠΑ: That's a paddlin'

Is that what you think I'm like?

You know I'm only joking about having Snerk fight you, right?

Which guy are you in this story?

I know that, and for that matter I'd cheerfully rub your feet while Snerk gives you that backrub. It was just a good place for that anecdote. I'm a story teller by nature.

Which guy are you in this story?

Where did I say it was a personal anecdote?

 

[Synobun]

The one who got beat down, gotcha.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

A break is a nice thing but a break needs to end eventually. Hang in there guy.

Thanks man. Honestly it's not been as hard as I thought it was going to be to quit, though I was under a lot anxiety for a few weeks at the beginning and I knew cannabis would make that a lot worse so that probably helped. I do miss it for work outs though. Like, a lot.

LOL...I have always known better than to get involved with high maintenance women. Not a lesson I had to learn the hard way on that day.

 

[MaryKB]

What do you consider to be "high maintenance?"

My experience is that it's men who are high maintenance ... do you realize how much work it is to take care of a man?

That question would be why I presented an anecdote that provides an example. I'm much better at examples than strict definitions. And, yes, high maintenance is definitely a characteristic that is distributed with plenty of gender equity. Note that I never said "women are high maintenance." I pointed out one who definitely was, and admitted that I sometimes use the possibility that you might as a way to offset your obvious charms...which probably wouldn't be enough to keep you from charming me into that foot massage so no harm no foul, eh?

That apartment requires far more maintenance than the supermarket roof I once called home.

Mmmhmmm ... in your anecdote I wouldn't so much say she's high maintenance as her boyfriend's an idiot

You're good at this though. I'm going to allow you to give me that foot massage.

I'd say that apartment is extremely high maintenance ... look at how much work needs to be done just to bring it up to livable standards!

Mary, deprogramme yourself. Women are not meant to ‘take care of men’ unless they are nurses in a hospital and they get paid above the living wage for it, and even then there are limits.

I'm also really good at foot massage. There's an anecdote for that too, but this is a family friendly forum.

Meanwhile, yeah, he was an idiot but that doesn't preclude her also being high maintenance in an extreme sense. He is not the only idiot I've seen in a "fight for me to prove you love me" relationship, nor is she the only woman I've seen with high maintenance requirements of that kind...though they are definitely the most extreme example.

As Dave Chappelle once insightfully pointed out, most men would live in cardboard boxes if they could do that and get laid. Women tend to prefer comfortable surroundings.

Of course, not all women are like that. I have a female cousin who inherited a lot of the family's packrat genes, if I showed you a picture of the inside of her house you'd probably want to go take a shower.

 

[MaryKB]

That's all nice Takhisis, but it's men you need to talk to. Sorry, but I won't stand idly by while my man wears dirty clothes and eats cold corn out of a can.

And the bigger fish is in a faster car with a more beautiful woman.

Consider me family then.

This really suggests that you adhere to the ‘men are big babbies’ opinion.

Rant: some degenerate replaced Winx Club with some Equestria Club crap.

 

[MaryKB]

I can only go by what I've seen, lol. As much as I love my husband, when I first went over to his apartment I found nothing but pre-packaged "foods" in his kitchen, and a literal laundry pile on the floor in his closet. Every man I've also met doesn't seem to have sufficient visual acuity necessary to spot dust

In this case the bigger fish is living under an overpass in a structurally unsound lean-to.

We can spot dust, we just don't care.
