Car mechanics tell you the truth.
The world is your urinal.
You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky.
You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character.
Graying hair adds attraction.
Wedding dress~$5000. Tux rental~$100.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected.

One mood all the time.

You know stuff about tanks.
A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.
You can open all your own jars.

You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.
Everything on your face stays its original color.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
You only have to shave your face and neck.

Your belly usually hides your big hips.
One wallet and one pair of shoes one color for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.

No wonder men are happier.

Take your choice! 
Here's your answer, Obi:
#1 I would hide the grays unless they look good on you.
#2 Never wear your makeup as dark as Tammy Baker's unless you're going to a costume party or are on some kind of catwalk.
#3 Wax the stache and let on like you've never had one!

RE: nuts & bolts. It's "righty tighty, lefty loosey." Unless, of course, you're working on an old Crysler vehicle, in which case it depends on which side of the car you are on!
BTW, I received this in an email from my pastor! He send me all kinds of neat stuff... |

Love this post, Obi!!! And Red, the comment about the underwear, too funny!! 
"Car mechanics tell you the truth"
Let's say in my marriage, I'm the one who has to take the vehicles into the garage. Trust me, I know a thing or two about vehicles and what's under the hood. I'm upfront with the mechanics and let them know I'm not an idiot. Shuts em' up pretty quick! 
"The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected"
Well I don't mean to sound rude or let you think that I'm no lady, but I can totally whip my husband when is comes to belching! Plus every other guy as a matter of fact.

"You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt."
That's me in my house. My hubby and I just moved to a new apartment, and I was the one to assemble my desk and the dressers, hang all the curtains, put together the bed, move the furniture where it is supposed to go, and adjust the chains on the toilets for better flushing. He played video games and put books on shelves.
"One mood all the time."
I don't think my husband got the memo on that one.
"A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase."
Again, I don't think my husband got the memo on that one. I, on the other hand, am constantly chided by my Mom for refusing to check baggage. Two weeks visiting the parents? One carry-on and a purse.
"Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack."
$3 for 3 pair at Old Navy clearance, baby! It's what the grad student budget requires. |

Hey Irish, have you read the "Men are Like" email? I'll send it to you just in case. But it's worth a good laugh! |

I got that in an email the other day and LOL!
As Dolly Parton said in one of her songs, "It's the only time that I wish I had been a man. But if I was a man, you know what that would mean? If I was a man I'd be some where right this very minute with some raggin ', naggin' , hateful woman whose suffering from those PMS Blues !"
Y'all might get a lot of stuff easy but you sure pay for it in other areas!! |
