BBQ RULES
We are head-first into the BBQ season.
Therefore, it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this
sublime outdoor cooking activity.
When a man volunteers to do the BBQ, the following chain of events are put into motion:
1. The woman buys the food.
2. The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
3. The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along
with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man
who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
4. The woman remains outside the compulsory "three meter exclusion
zone," where (the exuberance and other) manly bonding activities can
take place without the interference of the woman.
Here comes the important part:
5. THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
6. The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
7. The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great.
You thank her, and ask if she will bring another beer while you flip the meat.
8. THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
9. The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins,
sauces, and brings them to the table.
10. After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And - most important of all:
11. Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
12. The man asks the woman how she enjoyed her 'night off,' and,
upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that...
...there's just no pleasing some women.

wait a minute....this is the JOKE thread, right?Walkinghairball wrote:Funny thing is, I saw that same joke the other day and was going to post it. I decided I didn't want the row for it. Hey Cyg, thanks for taking my heat bro.
Just checkin.' After all, it was a joke...
***slaps Sigette on the ass and tells her to bring me another beer***

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their
days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop.
We were only in there for about 5 minutes.
When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket.
We went up to him and said, "Come on man, how about giving a senior
citizen a break?"
He ignored us and continued writing the ticket....
I called him a JERK...
He glared at me, and started writing another ticket for having worn tires.
So my wife called him an IDIOT...
He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first.
Then he started writing a third ticket...
This went on for about 20 minutes.
The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote!
Personally, we didn't care. We came into town by bus.
(We try to have a little fun each day - now that we're retired.
...It's important at our age.)

Ohh no no no...sorry Cyggy but you got it all WRONG.
When a man volunteers to do the BBQ, the following chain of events are put into motion:
1. The MAN buys the food.
2. The MAN makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert while the woman relaxes or makes sure he is doing it right.
3. The MAN prepares the meat for cooking HIMSELF since he volunteered to BBQ.
4. The woman can at any time direct the man to be sure he doesn't fuck up the meat.
Here comes the important part:
5. THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL. (knock yourself out)
6. The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery if she feels like it.
7. The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great BECAUSE IT HAD BETTER since he insisted on cooking it.
If it is looking good she may bring him a cold beer.
8. THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO EACH GUEST.
9. The wtable has already been set up by the MAN.
10. After eating, the paper plates are thrown away and the MAN takes out the trash.
And - most important of all:
11. Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
12. The man doesn't take all of the credit because the woman was there to make sure he did everything right...
