Didn't your mother teach you respect?

[Jackofalltrades]

I feel bad when I can't give up my seat to ladies.

I'm astonished that my father seems to be the only one who taught us, my brother and I, not to do a list of stuff before the ladies.

I love my FIL to death, buy he'd damn near knock his wife and mom over trying to fix his plate first. He learned real quick that doesn't fly when he's at my house. God forbid my son, now 2, ever be that uncouth.

he probably saw you waiting for it and, fearing you might take it before the other old lady could, promptly sat down... to avoid an old lady confrontation...

nobody likes witnessing an old lady confrontation

In many Southern households, the men ate first, then the children, then the women, if there was anything left. My mother's sisters continue this "tradition" to this day ... drives me nuts.

I was at the DMV in Boone a few weeks ago and people were about to push each other out of the way to offer their seats to old ladies.

Hospitality is still alive and well.

I was raised by my Mom. She taught me everything about being a man without being a "Mama's Boy".

The only thing she didn't teach me was "The Talk." I don't think any son wants to learn about the "Birds and the Bees" from his Mother. That I had to learn on my own and from filling in the gaps in PLAYBOY. (Though maybe I should have. It still confounds me why women will rather date a man who treats them like s*** rather than a man who respects them. :confused:)

Even now. I seriously doubt that you would have written about it, had he insisted that one of the ladies sit down. Here it is hours later and he's still on your mind.

[Doyle]

I'll teach you the meaning of the word respect.

Ask yourself: What Would Dexter Do?

If you would've flipped the chair upside down all 4 of you could have had a seat

:eek: :eek:

Am I the only one who sees something wrong with a man paying someone to change his oil?

Since the days of digging a hole in the back yard are gone, it is much easier to just take it and have it done, so you don't have to worry about disposal.

Besides, I have the little woman take it during the day, while I am at work earning a living, like a real man. (LOL, JK)

Is there something wrong with paying to get rubbed down with oil?

Yep, you are the only one.

I change my own. I take the used oil to the store when I go to buy new oil. Easy. And manly.

[LifeisaGarden]

We used to change our own oil and I say we because we both did it. We stopped because it's a pita. For $35 (includes tax & disposal) we get an oil change, all fluids topped, tire pressure check, air filter, belt & wipers checked, vacuum and a laser car wash. I just don't think we could do all that for the same price.
