RE: FEMINISTS

Apologies, It was not my intention to become personal with you.
I am only here for the craic. I misunderstood this thread obviously. I thought that it was a light hearted thread as opposed to another thread on feminism which apparently got quite heated (Didn't get a chance to read it so don't quote me). Anyway I am sorry if anything in my post was offensive to you.
Apologies to OP also

RE: FEMINISTS

I would imagine that going our own way would be individual rather than collective so I don't get the brainwashing reference.
Anyway I think that this was supposed to be just a fun thread. It sounds like you have been burned in the past so I certainly would not blame you for any bitterness you may have towards women who take a man for everything in a divorce/breakup situation. It has been known to happen to women also.

RE: FEMINISTS

It's just a shame that we don't have something to refer to that could tell us how to keep our men happy or indeed how to snag a man!
Oh...wait...this could work..

The Good Wife's Guide

From Housekeeping Monthly, 13 May, 1955.


Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready on time for his return. This is a way of letting him know that you have be thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they get home and the prospect of a good meal is part of the warm welcome needed.
Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you'll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people.
Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.
Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Run a dustcloth over the tables.
During the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering to his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.
Minimize all noise. At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. Encourage the children to be quiet.
Be happy to see him.
Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him.
Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first - remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours.
Don't greet him with complaints and problems.
Don't complain if he's late for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through at work.
Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or lie him down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him.
Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.
Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.
A good wife always knows her place.

RE: Numpties last supper !

Well then he should't have shown up at my door saying that he had a big package for me..should he??
Sorry Royalee...hijack...actually forgot what thread was about.

RE: Numpties last supper !

Ah...Scallops followed by a massive Med.Rare Filet mignon. Then Strawberry Cheesecake. Of course I would have to update my status on Social networking site as by now people expect to know what I am having for dinner or how the postman is doing etc. I would also need access to CS to try and convert all the poor people with MPD. I would then feel that my final hours had been worthwhile

RE: EARS-4

Just cos I like it. ...oh yeah can't find the other thread..

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

Ah heeerrrre young fella, my senile old pea brain cannot deal with or recognize sarcasm.....gerrouoffih

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

You don't say...right over my head that was It is so out of character for him to be sarcastic

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

True for ya...they could never have the sense of community and craic that the Dubs have...

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

How was Copper Wire invented???

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

Hello Bashful (since we are naming the 7!!) We never beat you..or maybe we did..(not good at football) but someone did or else you would be in the All Ireland..ok??

Ya can't beat the Dubs...

....For a sense of humour that is...sure you can beat them at football no problem...eh unless you are a Cavan team
I lived in Dublin for a short while in the early 80's...that would be before a lot of CS posters were born
I met some amazing people that I am still friends with and the sense of humour is priceless.
I have been lucky enough to have met more Dubs recently and the sense of humour is still the same.
I am not saying that only the Dubs have a sense of humour (before I get attacked!)
I am just saying that they have a particular sense of humour that only Dubs can have.
I also lived in New York...and believe it or not the real bread and butter New Yorkers have a mega sense of humour also...
For now though...ya can't beat the Dubs!!
