@blaineg@ybmuG so I guess what you are really telling us is that you and the girls that you date have standard that are in the toilet. Right? (snicker)
@therealjrn Well I was going to post a picture of a nice poop dinner for you shaped like a heart, but those photos were all too gross. Thus you are in luck.
A (female, hetero) friend of mine has this reposte to those attitudes:
“Great! Enjoy the solitude!
You can call during emergencies, but please don’t call me when you want extended caretaking!
Have an awesome life! Send me a postcard if you have the energy!”
She told me that she divorced her husband when she realized that she liked all the furniture in the house except this one clunky piece:
She now disliked living with the “biological piece of furniture” she had married back when he wanted to share his life, thoughts, hopes, and dreams.
@f00l I’ve always gone by the mantra:
“Women marry Men thinking they will change, and they don’t. Men marry Women thinking they won’t change and they do.”
@f00l@tightwad It may be more accurate if the occurrences of the word “thinking” were replaced with “hoping” and “expecting”, I’ll leave it as a reader exercise to decide in which order.
Sounds oversimplistic. Alas, most slogans and mantras are, can’t be helped.
I think my friend’s point about her ex-husband was that he did change over time. And, I suppose, she did also.
In their case, he did not want the breakup, and tried repeatedly to get her back. But he would not consider personal or couples therapy.
Most of my family are in v successful marriages. And, within those, both parties over time “change” or “grow” or “learn” or whatever. They seem to think it’s part of the job of being married.
I guess the “modern-world interpersonal intimate relationship dynamic” is a little dynamic, at times.
/giphy downvote
@medz the guy who wrote those candy hearts is single still living in his parents basement
/giphy spit take!
@chienfou finally one I can live with.
(you figure it out)
@chienfou name that movie
@chienfou @therealjrn can something be misogynistic and kind of funny at the same time? …A friend would like to know.
@elimanningface @therealjrn
/giphy ABSOLUTELY
@bleedmichigan @chienfou I tried to look that movie up and got pages of pornography. And not run of the mill stuff either. Ewww.
@chienfou @sammydog01 what movie were you searching?
That gif is from the greatest showman
/giphy greatest showman
@bleedmichigan @chienfou Blonde girl spit take. It read blonde, girl, and spit and stopped there.
@bleedmichigan @chienfou @sammydog01 Oh dear.
@chienfou @sammydog01
/giphy wtf
@bleedmichigan @chienfou @mossygreen @sammydog01 Reference @chienfou’s original picture here.
Heartwarming.
/giphy not
It probably bothers me more than it should but MAKE THE TEXT MATCH THE ROTATION OF THE HEARTS!
@blaineg ah, you see, therein lies the main point - if men made candy hearts.
Askew text is close enough for the girls we go out with
@blaineg @ybmuG so I guess what you are really telling us is that you and the girls that you date have standard that are in the toilet. Right? (snicker)
@blaineg @Kidsandliz @ybmuG Please do not sully Misogyny Corner with your Coprophilia. Thank you.
@therealjrn Well I was going to post a picture of a nice poop dinner for you shaped like a heart, but those photos were all too gross. Thus you are in luck.
@Kidsandliz Again, thank you so very, very much. lol
@Kidsandliz @therealjrn What about a nice soon-to-be-poop dinner?
