Ah, CO, I must tell you that things are going well, even though i have no idea how i am not going insane. Not being able to see her alot is really putting a damper on my mood. But i guess i will have all the time in the world once we're married.

Yes, i am well aware of the danger in the army.But i live for the chance to do something more with myself than stay home and do nothing while other people die for no reason other than some sick bastard wants to shoot someone. My sweetheart isnt sure she likes the idea of me being shot at, but she trusts me.

Paintball isnt exactly the same thing as real bullets, but it gets you used to being shot at.Then again, do you ever really get used to being shot at? If you do, is there something wrong?

Mowing the lawn!?! as a man, that is your duty. Oh the shame if my wife ever had to do it!!!

Dusting on the other hand... and folding washing. i ma banned from even attempting to fold washing (although why my boxers need folding i do not know)

but putting down the toilet seat seems to make them think you are considerate and caring (big ups). there is no logic to it, but it works.

no shit, but my old flatmate and i decided to start putting the seat down, and within like 2 months we had girlfriends, and we are now both married.

its the toilet seat i tell you!

DA. getting shot at in paintball is vastly different than in real life. but hey, go hard. your comment about wanting to do something other than watch other die because some sick bastard wants to shoot them is a little silly - as those people are shooting at the sick bastard, therefore making them sick bastards.

but hey, its your life.

PLEASE NOTE



This is a modified reminder that I've posted before in reply to someone asking "can we spam the cafe". It still holds true, so I'm going to repeat it periodically for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Read the first post of the thread, it's NOT a spam zone. If you want to discuss you grades, a problem with a teacher,the weather, your neighbor's new car etc.....etc.. (real life conversations) this is the place. I don't mind a SMALL amount of spam but when the Cafe gets to be 8 pages in one day and it's all one liner pure spam, I have to ask people not to do it because most of the members who would come to talk about their day or things that they want advice or sympathy or cheers on, will not post in that atmosphere. I want you to be comfy here, but not at the expense of other members.

So the answer is NO, I don't want to see page after page of roleplay spam or one liner spamfests that could be done on msn or aim etc. because our goal is to TALK WITH one another , not fill up a cafe in five hours.

There, now that we've restored Bungleau's equilibrium...

LOL, put the toilet seat down! Captain O is right... it makes the ladies much happier! Happy wife/gf means happier hubby/bf.

Now, where did I put that number for Mack's wife? *giggle* Oh Mrs. Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack....about the lawn.... bwhahahahahaha!

My hubby has been known to fold laundry...he does it better than I do! LOL I still do bathrooms but he'll do laundry on weekends sometimes!

What has happened to gender identity in the world???

Lawns are for men. Washing for ladies. I know, this is a little sexist, but i dont make the rules ok?

Man jobs include:
Lawns
painting
anything involving nails and/or screws
gardening (only the yanking plants out/cutting trees down kind tho)
car washing

Lady jobs include:
washing
dusting
cleaning stupid things that dont need it (like ovens, ceilings, underside of tables)(yes, my wife has doen these things)
and several others

gender neutral jobs include:
Vacuuming (of varying quality)
Dishes
Cooking (what is cooked varies greatly - bbqing for men, soufl'e for ladies etc)

You know, I post a fair bit, but I wouldn't know "SPAM" if I was reading it. What the heck is it?

As a guy, I hate the toilet seat up. Now, I also don't like it when people put the lid now. My inlaws come over and do that.
