Apparently, some guy had an argument with his girlfriend, and the next day left her an “I’m sorry” offering of presents, along with a note which made me giggle like a schoolgirl:
“The chocolates are cos I love you.
“The flowers are cos I’m sorry.
“The Tampax is cos I’m still not sure why I’m apologising so I guess you’ll need these any day now.”
Needless to say, some people have failed to see the humor in it because, as we all know, no woman has ever been pre-menstrually irritable.
Of course, it’s only going to make things worse for him, as all experienced men will acknowledge, but it’s worth it.
Oh, and for those who think it’s “passive-aggressive”, what would you think if he’d just plonked down a box of Tampax and his note read, “Take one and call me in the morning.”
Now that’s aggressive.
“Needless to say, some people have failed to see the humor in it because, as we all know, no woman has ever been pre-menstrually irritable.”
Perhaps someone can explain why even after menopause they still get shit on the liver every 28 days or so!!!
Habit.
There’s a link to another article about a woman who tells her man she’s mad at him by pinching the bread in the morning before she toasts it, to leave an FU in it. Of course, they think that’s hilarious, demonstrating again that the wymmyns don’t actually want equality.
Toast dude should respond by taking a page from Sam Kinison. “FU, huh?” And then mis-aim a bit the next night, when he does. “Ooops, sorry honey!”
“Of course, it’s only going to make things worse for him…”
I don’t know, but I see two likely outcomes. One, she sees the humor and laughs along with him. That might make her a keeper. Or two, she gets even madder and breaks up with him. Either way, I’m not seeing a downside.
(Of course, there’s always option three, I suppose – she beats him to death with a ball bat in his sleep, but the odds of that happening are vanishingly small.)
But still there. My Physics teacher in High School spoke of “Non-Zero probability.”
If she decides his death is necessary, she can always claim abuse, which includes but not limited to; Not rapping his forehead three times on the floor whenever he speaks to her.
My sister in law is PMS irritable yet denies it is the case, but guess what happens four days after the argument about how the socks are folded in the drawer?
If she doesn’t like the way the socks are folded in the drawer, she can do it herself.
Or, as I have been known to say on occasion, “Who lit the fuse on your tampon?”
