10 Cruel Things Women Do To Men
October 11, 2010
10. They don’t pick up the phone
While men feel good as they manage to take the girls’ phone number, the girls often give them a fake number or don’t pick up the call.
9. Use men for free drinks
Some women go out never planning to spend any of their own money on drinks at the bar or club. Instead, they count on their feminine wiles to convince guys to shell out for their libations. While some of them might begin to get to know him, the cruel and heartless ones will take that drink, flirt a little and move on.
8. Use men as placeholders
If she is a decent person, she’ll just get it over with and dump the boy, but if she’s cruel, she’ll hold on to him for a while until somebody new comes along. These girls don’t like to be alone and without a relationship, so instead of putting you out of your misery and ending it, she’ll string you along until she meets someone to replace you.
7. Emotionally manipulate men
Men don’t like to see women cry and some cruel women take advantage of the fact and use it to get what they want. A few tears would make men do anything to get it to stop.
6. Use physical violence
While men hitting girls are often termed nasty, some cruel women feel it’s perfectly acceptable to hit their boyfriends, as he would never hit her back. This type of woman feels like she can inflict any kind physical pain on him without fear of repercussion.

Top 5 Mistakes Parents Make With Kids
September 30, 2010
Safe Kids of Northeast Florida, a local nonprofit group that helps protect children in the area, has released a list of the top five mistakes parents make with their young children.
The No. 1 mistake on the list is not having a safe sleeping environment for babies.
Pillows, blankets, stuffed animals and crib bumpers, as tempting as they may be to put in a baby’s crib, are dangerous. Newborns and babies can suffocate on any of them.
The only thing that should be in a baby’s bassinet or crib is the baby and a tight-fitting crib sheet.
If you’re worried about your baby getting cold, buy a sleep sack for the child. It zips around the baby’s body and can’t get over the tot’s mouth.
The second most common mistake parents of young children make is holding a baby while cooking or carrying hot foods and liquids.

Why Your Busboy Hates You
September 23, 2010
The real me: I am a college student with an interest in Restaurant and Hospitality Management. I work in the restaurant service industry (have since high school) because I like the fast pace, being on the food scene, and the people. I get it, my job — barista, bartender, busboy and server — is all about the service. But there are times when I roll my eyes and shake my head at you, the customer.
Hey, call me “Cinder-fella”. To you I may just be the bitch’s bitch, just a mule pulling the wagon. My work begins hours before you even think about coming in to get your next meal. I clean the floors where you deposit yesterday’s trash from your purse or pockets, scrub tables and chairs deposited with chewing gum and snotty tissue, and scrape food you didn’t even purchase here off plates.
So yeah, I’ve got my gripes. Here are a few:
This is a dining experience, not a track meet: Flagging me over to your table and sending me running is fine. What is annoying is asking for a clean napkin, and as soon as I return with it, you have decided you need mustard. I deliver the mustard, and now you need an extra plate to share your food with your mother. Here comes the extra plate, and now you are ready to order that glass of wine. Why is this annoying? Maybe the other five tables in my section would like some service, too.
Enough with the PDA: Glad you like your date but I don’t want to watch your foreplay. Grabbing her ass is embarrassing to her, to me, to the table next to yours. I get it, your girlfriend is hot, so go home and get freaky later. A nice nibble on the ear then cut the action. And don’t bother giving me the stare down, I’m just here to bring the drinks, I can get my own action, privately.
And as for your potty behavior…. Yep, the staff cleans the bathrooms. If you shut yourself in the bathroom for 20 minutes, and we can smell the stink, we have a pretty good idea it was you who crapped all over the toilet seat and left. Clean it up, man. Paper towels stuffed in urinals and bloody napkins floating in the toilets? Who does that? Do you trash your house like this? The same goes for your vomit; if you can’t control your alcohol go outside. If you are going to puke in the restroom, try to aim for the toilet and hit the flusher before you exit.

Top 10 People You See At The Gym
September 8, 2010
We’re the kind of guys who believe treadmills are best used in metaphors. But we have been known on occasion to spend an uncomfortable hour in a gym two or three days a week for a month or so, just enough time to shush the guilt one sometimes feels over having the personal fitness level of a sea cucumber.
Customers like us are essential to the operations of a gym as no fitness club in the world would be able to accommodate every one of the customers on its rolls if they all decided to show up at once for a good sweat. They depend on people taking out expensive yearly contracts out of guilt and a desire not to have a stroke by winter, visit a few times, and then forget all about it. It should be noted too that many fitness clubs if not the vast majority are affiliated with criminal enterprise, as signing a load of bogus names up for memberships is a good way of laundering money.
While the prospect of being mobile after the age of 40 does hold a certain allure, gyms are simply not the kind of places we enjoy visiting on a regular basis. Fitness clubs have an artificial feel to them, created as they were to help keep our muscles from atrophying in the way that honest labor used to before the age of cubicles and repetitive strain injuries. They wouldn’t be so bad though if they were just big empty rooms full of exercise equipment and posters of people who in no way resemble you. To quote Charles Bukowski quoting John Paul Sartre: “Hell is other people. Right on and through the target.” Other people ruin the gym experience, and they are all of a type. Here are the Top 10 People You See at the Gym!
10. The criminal
Along with strip clubs, auto mechanic’s garages and roofer conventions, gyms are a great place for your average Joe to meet criminals. As mentioned above, fitness clubs are a popular choice of business for criminals looking to put a bit of an honest sheen on their filthy lucre and as such they are often full of criminals. Ever notice that grunting guy with no neck who is there no pumping iron at different times every day and seems to have no regular work? Chances are he has at one point in the not too distant past caused the loose change to fall out of someone’s pockets by dangling them upside-down off the side of a balcony or strong-armed someone with debts incurred along perv row.

Top 7 insane homeowners association rules
September 4, 2010
The astonishingly restrictive ways of homeowners associations (HOAs) came under scrutiny this month when a Sussex Square, Virginia, HOA demanded that a 90-year-old World War II vet remove an unapproved flag pole from his front yard. After receiving support from members of Congress, and even the Obama administration, Medal of Honor recipient Van T. Barfoot, who once singlehandedly took on three Nazi tanks, triumphed in his quest to fly Old Glory. Other homeowners haven’t been as lucky in their battles against their own HOAs’ “fascist” rules. Here are seven of the most controversial commandments:
1. Thou shalt not plant too many roses
A Rancho Santa Fe, California, homeowners’ association targeted Jeffery DeMarco for exceeding the prescribed number of rose bushes allowed on his four-acre property. When DeMarco balked, the HOA levied monthly fines, threatened foreclosure, and ultimately defeated DeMarco in court. After a judge ruled that the willful rose enthusiast had violated the community’s architecture design rules, DeMarco was forced to pay the HOA’s $70,000 legal bill — and lost his home to the bank.
