Ahhh, good to know, ha ha.
Yeh, and my parents instilled in me that I should never eat or drink anything at a friends house. I am not sure why, unless it goes back to Depression era manners. I still tell my kids this. It is so set in me, that to this day, I keep extra drinks in my car, and will never take food that is offered.
But, all in all, the list has nothing to do with anything but manners, like men are the only gender instilled with manners. The only ones that would be gender oriented would be ALWAYS TAKE YOUR HAT OFF INSIDE. To me, you wanna look like a bum, loser, jerk, keep your hat on in a place where people are eating. I am always tempted to go knock their hats off and scold their mothers when I see that. But, once again, not everyone lives by the same list. Punk ass bums. :
: he he
So, is that why you scowled at me during lunch at Cochon Butcher in New Orleans? 8O
I wanted to remove my flat cap, but my hair would probably have offended on its own. I did look around and see a few here and there, so I stuck with mine.
Sorry, Cosmic. :lol:
The important word there was "tempted." Plus, I jest. Most guys under 50 these days never take their hats off. If we're drawing lines in the sand and declaring what is manly and what is not, you get into stupid moronic declarations like I made, ha ha. Tis why it is not manly to state what is manly, at all. :wink:
Just poking fun at ya, but you went in with both feet. I love hats, but hate hat hair. I feel like a moron if I take my hat off and have some rooster hair sticking up!
Cheers!
Cheers!
Like I always say, I'm just 12Pups. As for how manly I am or ain't, that's in the eye of the beholder.
But if I ever catch you trying to behold my manhood, you'll wind up with a black eye (that is, unless you show your ticket and didn't bud in line).
If you got one, you are one, and don't need further proof. (But maybe even *that's* debatable nowadays, I guess).

Couldn't agree more, I like to wear hats and caps, but no matter how much hair products (pomade) I use, every time I took off my hat/cap, my hair is a mess.
It occurs to me that more than half of these, if followed, would disqualify a person for life in a Western country in business, administration, or any kind of office work where
exaggeration, self-promotion, gossip, etc., are the currency of working life. These certainly depict who I would like to be, but most of them, when followed, have resulted in me and my talents and accomplishments being negated and ignored for decades at a time. So, do you want to be a member of the society or an exalted hermit?
