Do you know who NOT to date?
When we reach that age/stage in life that we should stop dating wholly inappropriate people, we (thankfully!) begin to figure out who is not good for you. It would be amazing and utterly convenient to have a running list of the “types” that everyone should generally avoid, right?
A reader sent me an article by a guy who listed the “types of women to avoid” and I found it equally tragic and hilarious.
Just for fun, let’s say we compose a list. What types would you put on it and why?
I would start mine with don’t date a record producer, aspiring rapper, or bartender. I have been down that road, trust me!
Let’s see what you come up with. Who knows? Maybe we can figure out if we are the type that others avoid. The more you know, people. The more you know.

Afternoon All,
Yall are funny as heyal.
Hang in there Matt. Now that you off the ropes a couple of rules to keep you on the up and up.
1.) Sensitivity only comes into play if you are talking about your kids (female kids only) or your wife (see Swiss, Purp)
2.) Learn that if you throw a jab they will shoot yo azz dead. Dont bring a fist to a war. just won’t work.
3.) The fellas got your back and will attempt 2 courtesty rescues. After that the B.A.B. printing presses will get turned on.
welcome.

I don’t have no issue with a man doing man stuff AT ALL!
I got turned on when saw the beau fixing the door that he had to bust in when he locked us out the house by mistake…something about how the muscles flex at each pounding of the hammer

Leggs – That was not one of her questions. But, had she asked that, the answer would have been, “both of us”. And me,primarily, after we returned home with the lastest bundle of joy. As she got her strength back, she pushed me away more and more from the everyday baby care. But I did my share, gladly.

Leggs –
I have no idea why that is so funny. I would never put Sun Chips and Greens in the same snack category. I shole love me some collards but they make your farts smell like trashcan juice. Hard to hide those around the beau

I ASKED EARLIER IF IT HAD BEEN ADDED. We ALLLLL know men can do, will do, want to do a plethora or bad, illegal, “I know I shouldn’t” things but a woman cannot do the same. So, for those dudes living by the standard double standards and thinks it okay, XXXed
Okay…so end of day we have Sassy’s #4 tapped on the entrance to the blog,
Liars – Banned
Short and Proud – Banned
Double standard – Banned
Anything else?

@czB ~ this blog has jumped around all day.
1. Started out with list of don’ts for dating
2. Celisea and ITL had a very teeny tiny misunderstanding
3. Matt wondered out loud why women gravitate to thugs and ignore his Poindexter self (I kid, Matt, I kid)
4. Perfume was thrown in the mix to get the moistness of Matt out of the air
5. BF wanted to help him out, but no one else had his back
6. Matt came back with some zingers but we quickly jumped him
7. Reio’s working with some suspect women using him to clear up a debate on role of man at home with wife and baby.
8. Now, a lot of laughing….

Matt – If you still around, I forgot, here’s a guys guide/cheat sheet for your future blogging;
Kimmie – Is a Sniper, she doesn’t waste her talent. She calls it like she sees it. If you fugg up she’ll nail you plain and simple.
SexyCool – Is a mass murderer. She is cool but don’t let that fool you. The wrong post will have everybody sending flowers and singing sad songs for you. She is Kaizer Soze`
Leggs – Is your friend. She’ll call BS on you but still love you.
Celisea – Catch her on the wrong day and you got problems. Most days she’ll just skip over your posts.
Slim – She the funny one and will just jab you to death until the ref comes to save you.
ITl – she good until you say something bad about UGA (btw they suck just don’t tell her that).
The rest of the blog women just depend on the topic. They will however stick together.

You are stupid, SlimNu (LOL)….Lunch was ordered for us today. We had power games in the audiorium (Corn Toss and ping Pong). I had collards and flounder I brought from home. Left it in the fridge for lunch tomorrow and ate the company’s food (salad and sandwiches). So I only had Sun Chips and Collards to munch on…
(If I have to fart, I’ll walk out one door down the hallway and walk back in through the other door. Must make sure the smell of stink isn’t following me)….

Tender Roni, go to your room and fold my clothes!
Matt, Reio shut the hell up and speak only when spoken to!
ITL, shut your trap until you hear the sound of “ZIIPPP” coming from For Reals direction then open wide.
Camille, who the hell are you?
THIS IS HELL WEEK! Good thing there is only one more day for blogging!

funny to pop in and see a question about truth. i was thinking of him this weekend at a presa confirmation. but, yeah, like SC said … i think he said the nuptials were a no-go.
slim, i think of s/o as a real diy kinda guy cuz he fixes everything around my house. but to tell that to his family they just crack up saying he is soooo NOT a handy guy. i think if you believe someone can do it, it gives them the gumption to get it done. and it is just crazy sexy to watch a man “work”.

Tender, did I tell you that you can blink or roll your eyes? I am the king of this castle
Celisea, I have double standards…a woman can’t do what I do or I will have a problem with it. For example: I can pee standing up, can you? If you did I would have a problem with that and you better not do it around me..EVER! need I go on?

Purp – A REAL LADY knows the double standard thrives in a man’s world but is the detriment of a woman’s world. No schooling needed here. I’m good not trying to keep the pace of double standards. I have no desire to keep up with any man that does. No stretching thin or spreading it around.
