That sentence would be so much more true if you added some words, for instance:

Ahh but they do a great job of appearing to be Loyal and forgiving all the while stabbing you repeatedly in the back with a chainsaw, before removing your heart and trampling all over it, placing it out in a paddock and letting the six million cows trample on it, then put it back in your chest, all the while smiling away.

Cynicism shines everywhere, Fable. It's why it's such a successful way to pass the time :)

I totally agree with Fable here. All these posts about "men and women" I keep seeing here, make me feel I'm neither a man nor a woman, nor are my husband, my friends, my family and my work mates. And I quite happy for that :) :D :D

I meant forms as in fat/thin blue/brown/grey/green eyes etc., not whether they have an adams apple ;) :)

Eh? No, I have no problems with posts of that kind. I just roll my eyes, and think about all the bad relationships people have suckered themselves into based on a prominent bicep, the right hair frosting, or a mutual love for any given music group. Then, when things fall apart...and again...and again...and again...it's always "Hey, the other sex stinks!"

With respect, what a lotta whiners. :D ;)

Hey, I can respect my friends, while still laughing sometimes at their antics. Goodness knows, it's happened often enough the other way around, to me. :D

My wife and I also feel completely comfortable occasionally puncturing one another's inflated sense of rightness. She's a bit worse at that--her grandparents were Bavarians, she was raised in the largely one-time-German community of St. Louis, Missouri, and there's something about the culture (without meaning to sound prejudicial) which seems to turn out stubborn, dogmatic folks.

Of course, I get on my high horse, too, but sometimes I look down and laugh. To get her to laugh, I have to tell her the thrust of her jaw reminds me of Maurice Chevalier. ;)

One day, three men were hiking and unexpectedly came upon a large raging, violent river. They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea of how to do so.
The first man prayed to God, saying, "Please God, give me the strength to cross this river."
Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and he was able to swim across the river in about two hours, after almost drowning a couple of times.

Seeing this, the second man prayed to God, saying,"Please God, give me the strength and the tools to cross this river.
Poof! God gave him a rowboat and he was able to row across the river in about an hour, after almost capsizing the boat a couple of times.

The third man had seen how this worked out for the other two, so he also prayed to God saying, "Please God, give me the strength and the tools...and the intelligence ... to cross this river." And poof! God turned him into a woman. She looked at the map, hiked upstream a couple of hundred yards, then walked across the bridge.

A few minutes before the services started, the townspeople were sitting in
their pews and talking. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church.
Everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling
each other in a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate.

Soon everyone had exited the church except for one elderly gentleman who sat
calmly in his pew without moving, seeming oblivious to the fact that God's
ultimate enemy was in his presence.

So Satan walked up to the old man and said "Don't you know who I am?"

The man replied, "Yep, sure do." Aren't you afraid of me?" Satan asked;
"Nope, sure ain't." said the man. "Don't you realize I can kill you with a
word?" asked Satan.

"Don't doubt it for a minute," returned the old man, in an even tone. "Did
you know that I! could cause you profound,
horrifying, AGONY for all eternity? Persisted Satan.

"Yep," was the calm reply. "And you're still not afraid?" asked Satan.
"Nope," said the old man.
More than a little perturbed, Satan asked, "Well, why aren't you afraid of me?" The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for 48 years."
