Overheard in the paint department of my local hardware store:

Female customer: "Hmm. Really?"

Male clerk: "Yeah! He looks just like Spiderman, only he's different. See? And there's this other guy called the Sand Man who --"

Female customer: "I have to take this call."


Boys, take heed.

When a woman seems to find Spiderman fascinating, there's a 90 percent chance that she's just being polite.

It won't last. Eventually, her paint order will be ready and she will move on.
 
its slightly hard to watch such a SLAPDOWN!

could have been worse. he could have asked her if she wanted to come over for an energetic game of D & D.

For a brief while after puberty, guys hope girls can be as much fun as their guy friends, but with breasts and sex.
 
I want to know just what you think you are doing in the paint department? Thinners isn't what you use to water down cocktails.

its an integral fact that girls are much cooler than guys. :cool:

Most guys come around to that. Usually after seeing their first breasts, and definitely after sex.

I would have said yes!

I keep resisting the urge to put my geeky game credentials in my sig cause they're pretty.

If it makes you feel better, he didn't know he'd been slapped down. When she finished her phone call, he took up where he left off. "See, the Sand Man is like..."

If she had shot him then, I would have testified that it was in self-defense.

Don't you dare! For two reasons;
1) I have a couple people on 'Ignore" because their sigs take up half a page, and
2) My son will be staring over my shoulder at your creds every time they show up. :D
 
This thread has turned my entire world upside-down. :eek: Now what am I gonna talk about? :(

See, I would have nailed him because he was being lame about Spiderman. I'm going to want to discuss whether the artistic style of the movie was in homage to Steve Ditko or John Romita, jr.
 
Bat's cooler and he's got better attitude, better skill and style (dresses in black, not like a 7 year old).

I wouldn't go on about how Hayward is the coolest city in the Bay Area. :D Or that Cal State Hayward has it all over UC Santa Cruz.
 
Most vehementy recommended/defended movie I will never watch, but am willing to say I have watched so its fans will leave me alone: The Matrix.

Most earnest reason given by a male friend for me to see The Matrix: When the heroine walks up walls, "it's empowering to women."

:nana:
 
Ha! Walking up walls isn't empowering.

Kicking the shit out of half a dozen cops. That's empowering. :D

That's not going to make them happy. To make them happy you'd have to lace up the black corset, put on the sunglasses and demand they make a choice between a red pill and a blue pill :rolleyes:

"Honey, let's compromise; here's a purple pill, just for you." :D

Did you distract him long enough for her to escape?

Sadly, for some guys, this stage lasts until they're 48. This often goes hand in hand with living in their parents basement.
