    I was thinking while shaving today about the strange things we do. I heated my shave mug, brush and soap in a sink full of hot water before shaving, the same soap that just last week I had nuked in the microwave so I could stir in the menthol crystals to get the face freeze that I like so much.

    That's nothing! Last month, I switched to running a razor blade across my face in order to reduce irritation!

    I always thought wearing ties was kinda stupid......I don't mind it, I just think its stupid.

    If it wasn't for my vintage tie collection I'd never wear one...ok maybe on occasional Jerry Garcia tie. I'm down to about twice/week.

    Ties are part of a feminist plot to subjugate the male of the species... :pri:

    Actually, they are just our revenge on whoever invented high heels.

    According to that article, I can blame those women for popularizing them, not inventing them.

    Think we got the better deal though .:D A man wearing a tie is just a man wearing a tie but a woman in heels is......interesting.

    Foot pain, sprains, fractures, tendon problems and a higher incidence of degenerative joint disease of the knees? Yeah, we men did get a much better deal with just having to wear ties.

    Sometimes my neck gets sweaty in the summertime. And sometimes I have to retie my tie because I tied it too long. And there was this one time when I went outside and the wind started blowing and my tie kind of blew up and over my shoulder and I had to push it back down. Women have it easy... [​IMG]

    I'm not sure which is the most worthless invention in the history of man, the tie or dancing...

    ...what he said
    I still vote for high heels. (And no, I don't own any.)

    Dancing? Oh man, are you serious? Without any encouragement, my 1-year-old daughter rocks and moves to any music we put on. It's my opinion that we all love dancing in one way, shape, or form—unless that love has been killed by some extraneous factor.

    Seriously never saw the point of jumping and flailing around with a bunch of other people jumping and flailing around.

    What about a graceful Viennese waltz, a slow hula, or a crisp tango? No jumping and flailing, and you can easily restrict the numbers! Come on, Tom, you know you want to. hehe

    You honestly don't tap your foot, bob your head, or pat your hand on your knee or the table when a great song comes on?

    I always found it funny that we drive on Parkways and park on driveways. Of course, that's only English speaking people.
