ladies, in furthering our committment to crime fighting, the champ will be your compass and, if you’re hot, willing concubine. without further ado, here’s a portion of the vsb guide to what men really mean when they’re talking to you.
“hey, i just wanted to tell you that i care about you, and i think about you all the time.” = “i know that i’m a half-thread of toilet paper on the anal fissure of bad boyfriends, but i’m hoping this’ll make you verklempt enough to forget that and continue the post-dawn daily bj’s”
“thats not what i meant” = “actually, i did mean exactly that, but since this unexpectedly upset you, i’m gonna to continue to rephrase it until i find something that works. take a seat. this might take a while”
“huh? excuse me? can you repeat that?” = “i heard you, but i just need a bit more time to patch up this tattered story”
“whats your name?” = “not you, dummy. i’m talking to your boobs. are they fraternal or identical twins?”
“i really dont understand women” = “i really dont understand why women generally think i’m lame”
“where did you learn how to do that?” = “seriously, where did you learn how to do that, and how crazy must you be to have that skill-set and still be single???”
“whats your friend’s name?” = “is there a clause for buyer’s remorse in our relationship contract?”
“am i getting fat?” = “i’m gay.”
“we should work out together” = “i like you. i really do. but, i’m going to make your life a passive-aggressive living hell until you lose some weight”
“i’m not looking for a relationship right now” = “i’m not looking for a relationship with you right now…just your vagina”
“when was the last time you had sex?” = “if we do the do and i decide to go down on you, i won’t be tasting geralds nuts, will i?”
“my day was good, and yours?” = “even though this never works, i’m begging you to allow my blatantly succinct answers to rub off on you”
“where do you see us in five years?” = “please break up with me now so i dont have to feel guilty about the inevitable sneak attack break-up three weeks from now”
‘hi” (to a girlfriend) = “whats wrong???”
“whats wrong?“ = “what did i do???”
“what did i do???” = “i know what i did, i just wanna see how much mileage i still have on this ignorance card”
i’m sure i’m missing a few. fellas, feel free to chime in.
oh, and ladies, i aint forget about ya’ll, lol. you’re not gonna get off the hook that easily. share your compasses too.

Our REAL thoughts. I hope the ladies don’t kick me out the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
“Nothing’s wrong” – You pissed me off and I don’t feel like talking about it but if you ask me again with more concern, I’ll tell you. But you’ll probably think I’m coming from left field.
“I had a bad day” – Just give me a hug and I’ll feel slightly better
“No” – You may be able to convince me otherwise if you do that thang I love so much. You know…
“I don’t really celebrate Valentine’s” – If you don’t at least acknowledge it, you will get ice-grilled.
“I LOVE football” – I know the rules and ish and will watch it if there’s NOTHING else on! Besides, I just like that jersey of yours. Can I wear it on Sunday?
There are just a few.

“No, you don’t have to pick me up. I’ll meet you there”—-I’m not sure I want to ride in a car with you. And I don’t want to have to deal with having you drop me off at my house afterwards, with your awkward a*s.
“Yeah, I miss you too.”—I love the attention you show me, but I’m still on the fence regarding my feelings for you. But, hey, a girl’s gotta eat.
“I don’t really celebrate Valentine’s day”–see Luvvie’s post, above.
“You don’t have to get me anything for my birthday/Christmas. Once you pass a certain age, that stuff doesn’t matter”–I suggest, that if you wish to continue thinking of yourself as my “man,” that you don’t be no damn fool. When the other women start discussing the gifts they got, it really ain’t no thing for me to start talking about how i cussed you out and broke up with you.
“I’m sorry. *giggle* I always get giggly when someone tries to kiss me.”———Don’t touch me.

I don’t agree with the “Am I fat?” translation.
I recently had a male ask me if something on him made him look fat. I didn’t translate that to mean he was gay, just that he was concerned about his body.
I think men try and front but they are JUST as concerned about their physical appearence as women are. We just come off as being more concerned because we are vocal.
As men get older, they tend to put on weight and with that comes the constant looking in the mirror and sucking in the gut.
IT IS OKAY FOR A MAN TO BE CONCERNED WITH HIS PHYSICAL APPEARANCE. It doesn’t mean he is gay.

houston is dope as well, i used to live in dallas and that’s another good city. however, atlanta wins out for the following reasons:
1) weather’s better
2) more non-locals
3) not nearly as spread out as houston and dallas
4) you can win simply by being heterochexual

Gotta call poppycock on this one. I used to think this about myself too (the part about being one of the few people who has no codes). But you start to realize after a while that sometimes the plain truth aint worth the drama that follows!
If you always shoot from the hip, you’re probably the one in your group starting all the drama!
Consider the following:
Mama: Why didn’t you pick up the phone
Me Fail: Cuz I’m tired of talking to you so often
Boss: Would you like to help me with this project?
Me Fail: No, I’d rather you did it yourself. I mean, what is that you do around here?
See how being a jerk in some situations doesn’t really benefit anyone.

Nope. There’s ALWAYS a way to be honest and tactful at the same time. It’s not the same as shooting from the hip. When you tell the truth with out being hurtful, people respect you because you have good intentions and because you care enough to choose your words carefully.

@Voiceofreason and Me Fail, I definitely think there are ways to maintain your integrity while telling a white lie, or just omitting the truth. You don’t have to say “I’ll do it but I’d rather not.” Just say “I’ll do it.” The a$$hole part is adding, “But i’d rather not.” That’s really unneccessary. That’s just asking to be labeled difficult, or something… There’s also something to telling the truth from your own personal vantage point at all times and thinking that’s the gospel. There are other people in the world with their own version of the truth too… so I guess i think Me Fail wins this one (ha! like ya’ll asked. u both love me! Smooches!) Like truthfully, i had to get on the floor and pray 4 times so far today so I didn’t bust someone @ my place of employment in the head with a stapler… but I can’t SAY that. I can’t say “I don’t really give a flying fluck about what ur asking me for, but I’ll do it cuz I’m a slave to my paycheck…” but that’s my personal truth lol. … so in conclusion, trying to beat someone over the head with your version of the truth is kinda a$$holish and inconsiderate. I know ya’ll didn’t ask 4 my $.02, but this was callin’ me, and I love ya much, VOR.

And the example you provided is of someone being evil, and nasty. When I’m a jerk it comes across as humorous. Maybe it’s wrong, but I like it when people are laughing hysterically and saying “I hate you!” at the same time.

@Voiceofreason,
You’re taking it as evil when it’s really just honest. There’s only so many ways you can clean up “I don’t feel like talking to you” before you start equivocating and getting into codes.
There’s only so many ways you can say “I don’t want to help you” before you’re just lying.
Also, if people see humor in the way you say something it has more to do with their sense of humor than the way you phrased it. There’s certain stuff that no matter how you say it someone’s gonna be hurt.
So I’ll let you write the script: Your boss calls you in. He’s lazy, hyper-critical, incompetent and always takes credit for the work you do. You really hate working for him, much less working with him. He asks “would you like to help on this project?” And you reply….
Remember. No codes.

I’d politely say, “I’ll do it, though I’d rather not.” I’ve responded this way to managers in the past.

@Voiceofreason,
And nobody’s asked you why you’d rather not? What would you say if they did?
In these TETs I’ve seen people get let go for keeping it real about how much they really like their jobs and whether they wanna be a part of the team or not.
I’m having trouble buying the prospect of a manager being completely cool with an employee politely saying “I’d rather not help you”
Voiceofreason Reply:
May 7th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
@Me Fail English?,
No one has ever asked me why I’d rather not. In the scenario described the manager is always taking my ideas, which means he knows how talented I am and he needs my ideas. No one fires a vital resource in TET.
In addition, the scenario described is unrealistic. Managers like this never ask you if you want to help, they tell you that you’re going to help.
I understand that you’re making an attempt to create a situation in which I MUST use a code, but the fact of the matter is I don’t do that. It’s a part of who I am. Of course there are always situations in which a person will get hurt no matter what you say, but there’s no cause for bullshyting. If you inherently have good intentions people can see that and it softens the blow, even if it’s as simple as prefacing your statement with phrases like “I hate to say this but…” or “I know this is going to come out the wrong way but I don’t know how else to say it.”
Lastly, my original post was a comment directed at today’s topic which applies to the context of how men and women communicate in relationships. But I didn’t think I needed to say that.
Me Fail English?, I love you, but you’re making me tired today!

@Voiceofreason,
It’s not unrealistic at all. The same way you have bosses that don’t mind that you don’t want to help, I’ve had plenty of bosses who say “Would you mind…” and “Can you…” rather than “Go, do it”. I think what’s unrealistic is saying “people always understand my intentions because I have tact.” Or saying that bosses never questioned your reluctance to help because you’re so good at what you do. As if you couldn’t be replaced.
I said ‘poppycock’ but I meant “bullshet” because I simply don’t believe that you and your father got through life never telling a fib. I didn’t want to call you a self-righteous liar because that would be rude.

My statement was directed at you saying that you’d fire someone for saying they’d rather not help. If you’re sticking to your own scenario you’re saying you are the type of boss you described.
And again, it’s rare that a boss asks for your assistance. They tell you what you’re going to do because they don’t give a d@mn about what you want. But this really doesn’t have much to do with today’s topic.

@Luvvie,
I know that the statement was directed at me so the question stands how does not wanting someone on people on my team who don’t want to help make me:
-hyper critical
-incompetent
-taking credit for what they do
Maybe I just want people who are enthused about working with me. Also, I have a boss and have employees working for me as well. Corporate cultures are different everywhere but we rarely (if ever) make demands. I know I have the power to make people do it. But everyone (even the jerk bosses I described above) makes a point to be respectful of others’ workloads, what they enjoy doing, what they are good at, etc. Thusly, it’s more common that we ask for people’s participation. Even if it’s not really optional.

The mid-sentence “Uh huh, I got it,” is also a favorite, but that line frequently gets talked/yelled over, and is much more aggressive. I prefer to wait for the natural pause, then confirm that the credits are rolling on our little convo.
And I don’t do the vigorous nod, I do the locked in eye contact followed by saying the line slowly. It’s like hypnosis if performed correctly.

@Blue Skyez,
College aged woman’s answer to “You got a boyfriend?” to nosey family members at reunions: “No. I’m really just trying to focus on school and my career now.”
Really saying: “College guys suck booteeee!!!! Thank gawd I have my rabbit!!!”
LOL when I was in college the answer was not the rabbit, or that college boys sucked. The answer was I have a boonopolis i.e. splackavellie. But these old folks don’t need to know all the business. HEHEHE

@Ms. T,
re:”Splackavellie”
Bloody murder luv. just bloody murder.
now if may lower my spectacles for a moment….
back in my day, we were vigilant in ensuring no cuda on campus was left un-splacked. with the relative dearth of colored cuda on our campus, ambition and organization were the guiding tenets of our splackavellie movement. And even(or especially) if she wasn’t hott, there somehow was always a man for the job.
Bow your heads and pray for our youth…..

1. “Ok” = You have won this argument. I am not going to pursue it any further. I’m not even going to continue thinking about it. So, drop the issue.
2. *silence* = You have crossed the line. But I will not air your business or embarrass you in public. I am NOT amused.
3. “If you say so” = You are keeping something for me. Don’t think I’m not paying attention and don’t think I will forget.
4. In response to “what are you thinking” – “Nothing” = I was looking at the wall and bookshelf thinking “hmm, that is a wall. Look at those books. I wonder if I’ve read one of those books. When did that picture get on. . . great, she’s about to ask me what I’m thinking”.
5. “On your knees” = On your knees.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This was hilarious! Excellent!
Whenever a guy gives a chick an excuse why he’s not looking for a relationship it just means he’s not looking for one with HER. When a man wants you…you never have to wonder…just like you never have do wonder if he DOESN’T want you.
I know this is too simple mind ya. Seriously.
