At what point does a woman “need” to sleep with a guy before he loses interest in dating her any more?

I’ve known lots of guys, friends and men I’ve dated or been in relationships with, and most of them tell me that there’s no magic number… but I think they just tell me that because I’m a woman and they don’t want to look like assholes.

The truth is, we women learn pretty early on that there is definitely an expectation among guys that if a woman doesn’t want to sleep with them, eventually they will date someone who does. I know that in the past, I’ve felt some pressure (maybe self-imposed) to have sex by date 3…

Is there a magic number?

Personally, I’m not a big fan of these “games.” I pretty much know by the second date if I’m willing to continue seeing a guy, and I already know [...]

Thoughts on Religion

Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.
~ Napoleon

We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.
~ Gene Roddenberry

Man is certainly stark mad: he cannot make a worm, yet he will make gods by the dozen.
~ Michel de Montaigne

If you can conceive of morality without god, why can you not conceive of society without government?
~ Peter Saint-André

I contend that we are all atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

So last night, Christopher and I went out to dinner and we were kicking around the idea of going to one of the local theme parks for their Halloween event. We weren’t sure if we wanted to do Halloween Haunt and Knott’s “Scary” Farm or Halloween Horror Night at Universal Studios. And that’s when I told him that the one haunted house I’d been to at Universal was pretty damn scary.

Christopher: When did you go there?

Me: When I was running camp. I took the kids. Didn’t I tell you this story?

It turns out I hadn’t told him the story of my day at Universal with the 7 - 12 year …

Kanye West Needs to STFUP

I haven’t gone off on anyone in a while– which I attribute to my suspicions that Christopher is slipping Prozac into into my Diet Coke every night– but I’m afraid my period of serenity will have to end today. I don’t think I’m alone when I say…

Someone needs to off Kanye West.

Which sucks. ‘Cuz he’s a pretty good rapper. I like his music. I like his videos. I just can’t stand the whiny, petty, ignorant person he’s become. He reminds me of a bratty little kid who has to be the center of attention constantly.

It all started with his well-informed diatribe about how President Bush doesn’t care about black people during a live taping …

Revoking a Friend’s Man Card

Posted on September 8th, 2007 by Christopher.
Categories: Hilarious.

Sometimes you just have to just have to step in and revoke a friend of your’s man card.. at least temporarily. There can be a variety of reasons for taking such a drastic action. For example deciding to forgo poker night and go shoe shopping with your wife / girlfriend. Allowing your girlfriend to decorate your house with girlie shit…. ( flowery candles are a great example ).

There are just times where a man has to say enough is enough… so I was surprised yesterday when one of my closest friends in the whole world informed me that he would probably miss the Penn State / Notre Lame game to attend “some concert” at …
