Women Words

Haha. Hahahahaha. I hate that this is so me...but it is SO me.

  • Fine - This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right and you need to shut up. Never use “fine” to describe how a woman looks - this will cause you to have one of those arguments.
  • Five Minutes - This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the rubbish, so it’s an even trade.
  • Nothing - This means “something”, and you should be on your toes. “Nothing” is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. “Nothing” usually signifies an argument that will last “Five Minutes” and end with “Fine”.
  • Go Ahead - At some point in the near future, you are going to be in some mighty big trouble.
  • Go Ahead (With Raised Eyebrows) - This is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over “Nothing” and will end with the word “Fine”.
  • Go Ahead (Neutral Expression) - This means “I give up” or “do what you want because I don’t care” You will get a “Raised Eyebrow Go Ahead” in just a few minutes, followed by “Nothing” and “Fine” and she will talk to you in about “Five Minutes” when she cools off.
  • Loud Sigh - This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A “Loud Sigh” means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment, and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over “Nothing”.
  • Soft Sigh - Again, not a word, but a non-verbal statement. “Soft Sighs” mean that she is content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe, and she will stay content.
  • That’s Okay - This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a man. “That’s Okay” means that she wants to think long and hard before paying you back for whatever it is that you have done. “That’s Okay” is often used with the word “Fine” and in conjunction with a “Raised Eyebrow”.
  • Please Do - This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing whatever it is that you have done. You have a fair chance with the truth, so be careful and you shouldn’t get a “That’s Okay”.
  • Thanks - A woman is thanking you. Do not faint. Just say you’re welcome.
  • Thanks A Lot - This is much different from “Thanks.” A woman will say, “Thanks A Lot” when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have offended her in some callous way, and will be followed by the “Loud Sigh.” Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the “Loud Sigh,” as she will only tell you “Nothing”.

Okay - it's not 100% me (ha. backpacks, Megan). The five minutes thing - well, I really do try to only take five minutes. I don't have problems with being ready on time. But when I'm reading, crafting, doing Sudoku...that's when the five minutes problem kicks in.

The loud sigh and soft sigh aren't entirely me, either. However, when I do loudly sigh, and Pete is around, it's usually because I'm looking at something cute/romantic/dreamy online and then get sad/upset/irrationally angry that we don't have that thing/place/whatever. For example - I look at pictures of Paris and I sigh heavily. Or I look at pictures of cute dogs and I sigh heavily. Or short wedding dresses or a pretty hat or or or or...
