9 words women use

Again with the numerology crud.

* * *

Chain: 1.) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

Ocean Elf: Oh, right, because according to yet another chain "When a Girl/Guy" men only have two modes, arguing, or being wrong, and women have only two modes, thinking deeply or fighting. What rubbish.

Actually I rarely argue with people, (smashing chain letters notwithstanding,) and mostly use the word "fine" when asked if something is okay.

Chain: 2.) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

Ocean Elf: Wrong again. I've said it before, but obviously it bears repeating. I don't take a long time to get dressed, fix my hair etc. It really does only take me five minutes if that. I'm not in the habit of timing myself or anyone else. Oh, and I watch hockey games. "five minutes" is two words, so that brings your count up to 10 words, not 9.

Chain: 3.) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine

Ocean Elf: Wrong again. When I say "nothing," it usually means just that, nothing, or else I just don't feel like talking about something. It doesn't indicate any storm is brewing or that I'll hit some guy with a "fine".

Chain: 4.) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

Ocean Elf: Wrong, wrong, wrong. I never say "Go ahead" when I don't want someone to do something. I do not believe in daring anyone, and am not the sort to look for a fight and start it by a dare. "Go ahead" is two words, bringing your word count up to 12.

Chain: 5.) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

Ocean Elf: Actually, I sigh at anyone who annoys me, men and women alike, and it doesn't mean "nothing" I sigh at myself for making stupid mistakes, my computer when it freezes, the dying batteries in my Ipod, you get the idea. And men also sigh over the same sort of things as well.

Chain: 6.) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

Ocean Elf: Totally wrong. When I say "That's okay" I mean "That's okay. There's nothing dangerous about it, and unlike women in these silly chain letters, I don't go around playing judge, jury, and executioner on men just because they are men. "That's okay" is two words, bringing your count up to 14.

Chain: 7.) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome.

Ocean Elf: I could say the very same thing about some men, there are simply some people regardless of gender, who just don't express gratitude very often.

Chain: 8.) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

Ocean Elf: No, if people want to use that kind of language, they do regardless of gender. "Whatever" is used by both men and women alike. And it's "a woman's way" not "a women's way."

Chain: 9.) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.

Ocean Elf: Wrong yet again. I've said "Don't worry, I got it" without being in any arguement, and meant exactly what I said. You cannot predict an interaction between people based on gender. "Don't Worry About It, I Got It" are seven words, not one, so this actually brings your word count up to 21. This makes the title of this chain letter totally wrong on top of everything else!

Chain: Iam giving this advice to men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they hear any of those words and to all the women to give them a good laugh, cause they know it's true!

Ocean Elf: It's not advice, it's a crock of bullcrap, and anything but true from my perspective.

Chain: PLEASE CONFIRM THE INTERPRETATIONS -ARE THEY TRUE OR FALSE? ñ AT LEAST TO HELP THE MEN FOLK.

Ocean Elf: I've just confirmed they are false, or at least not true for everyone, certainly not true 100 percent for any woman or any man. You could switch the genders around in these descriptions and have them be just as accurate or inaccurate depending on you or the people you know. I've also shown that you can't count. Hah!

Now, to anyone else out there, I'm not interested in anyone trying to validate and excuse the passing on of this chain because you might actually agree with or fit some of its descriptions. So many bloggers already do this "OMG, this so fits me to a tee, so I just HAD to share!" No, this site is for smashing chain letters, not promoting them as some kind of profundity… So finding fault with chain letters and laughing at their ridiculousness is what it's all about here.

Over and out.
