Never use &#8220;fine&#8221; to describe how a woman<br \/>\nlooks &#8211; this will cause you to have one of those arguments.<\/p>\n<p>\nFIVE MINUTES<br \/>\nThis is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your<br \/>\nfootball game is going to last before you take out the trash, so it&#8217;s an<br \/>\neven trade.<\/p>\n<p>\nNOTHING<br \/>\nThis means &#8220;something,&#8221; and you should be on your toes.  &#8220;Nothing&#8221; is<br \/>\nusually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you<br \/>\ninside out, upside down, and backwards. &#8220;Nothing&#8221; usually signifies an<br \/>\nargument that will last &#8220;Five Minutes&#8221; and end with &#8220;Fine&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nGO AHEAD (With Raised Eyebrows!)<br \/>\nThis is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over<br \/>\n&#8220;Nothing&#8221; and will end with the word &#8220;Fine&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nGO AHEAD (Normal Eyebrows)<br \/>\nThis means &#8220;I give up&#8221; or &#8220;do what you want because I don&#8217;t care&#8221; You<br \/>\nwill get a &#8220;Raised Eyebrow Go Ahead&#8221; in just a few minutes, followed by<br \/>\n&#8220;Nothing&#8221; and &#8220;Fine&#8221; and she will talk to you in about &#8220;Five Minutes&#8221;<br \/>\nwhen she cools off.<\/p>\n<p>\nLOUD SIGH<br \/>\nThis is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often<br \/>\nmisunderstood by men.  A &#8220;Loud Sigh&#8221; means she thinks you are an idiot<br \/>\nat that moment, and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here<br \/>\nand arguing with you over &#8220;Nothing&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nSOFT SIGH<br \/>\nAgain, not a word, but a non-verbal statement. &#8220;Soft Sighs&#8221; mean that<br \/>\nshe is content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe, and she will<br \/>\nstay content.<\/p>\n<p>\nTHAT&#8217;S OKAY<br \/>\nThis is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a<br \/>\nman. &#8220;That&#8217;s Okay&#8221; means that she wants to think long and hard before<br \/>\npaying you back for whatever it is that you have done. &#8220;That&#8217;s Okay&#8221; is<br \/>\noften used with the word &#8220;Fine&#8221; and in conjunction with a &#8220;Raised<br \/>\nEyebrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nGO AHEAD!<br \/>\nAt some point in the near future, you are going to be in some mighty big<br \/>\ntrouble.<\/p>\n<p>\nPLEASE DO<br \/>\nThis is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you the<br \/>\nchance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing<br \/>\nwhatever it is that you have done. You have a fair chance with the<br \/>\ntruth, so be careful and you shouldn&#8217;t get a &#8220;That&#8217;s Okay&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nTHANKS<br \/>\nA woman is thanking you. Do not ! faint. Just say you&#8217;re welcome.<\/p>\n<p>\nTHANKS A LOT<br \/>\nThis is much different from &#8220;Thanks.&#8221; A woman will say, &#8220;Thanks A Lot&#8221;<br \/>\nwhen she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have<br \/>\noffended her in some callous way, and will be followed by the &#8220;Loud<br \/>\nSigh.&#8221; Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the &#8220;Loud Sigh,&#8221; as she<br \/>\nwill only tell you &#8220;Nothing&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/lj-raw><br \/>\n<\/lj-cut> I received this via e-mail today, and whilst we all read it knowingly its nice to be reassured we are right \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FINE This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right and you need to shut up.
