Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.
FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when
they feel they are right and you need to shut up.
Never use “fine” to describe how a woman looks – this
will cause you to have one of those arguments.
FIVE MINUTES
This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five
minutes that your football game is going to last
before you take out the trash, so it’s an even trade.
NOTHING
This means “something,” and you should be on your
toes. “Nothing” is usually used to describe the
feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out,
upside down, and backwards. “Nothing” usually
signifies an argument that will last “Five Minutes”
and end with “Fine”
GO AHEAD (With Raised Eyebrows! )
This is a dare. One that will result in a woman
getting upset over “Nothing” and will end with the
word “Fine”
GO AHEAD (Normal Eyebrows)
This means “I give up” or “do what you want because I
don’t care” You will get a “Raised Eyebrow Go Ahead”
in just a few minutes, followed by “Nothing” and
“Fine” and she will talk to you in about “Five
Minutes” when she cools off.
LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal
statement often misunderstood by men. A “Loud Sigh”
means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment, and
wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and
arguing with you over “Nothing”
SOFT SIGH
Again, not a word, but a non-verbal statement. “Soft
Sighs” mean that she is content. Your best bet is to
not move or breathe, and she will stay content.
THAT’S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a
woman can make to a man. “That’s Okay” means that she
wants to think long and hard before paying you back
for whatever it is that you have done. “That’s Okay”
is often used with the word “Fine” and in conjunction
with a “Raised Eyebrow.”
GO AHEAD!
At some point in the near future, you are going to be
in some mighty big trouble.
PLEASE DO
This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is
giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse
or reason you have for doing whatever it is that you
have done. You have a fair chance with the truth, so
be careful and you shouldn’t get a “That’s Okay”
THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not! faint. Just say
you’re welcome.
THANKS A LOT
This is much different from “Thanks.” A woman will
say, “Thanks A Lot” when she is really ticked off at
you. It signifies that you have offended her in some
callous way, and will be followed by the “Loud Sigh.”
Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the “Loud
Sigh,” as she will only tell you “Nothing”
