There were 2 men at a bar, the first man said to the other one, "I know a bridge where you can jump off and return safely." The other man who was shocked asked the man to show it to him. After they finished their drinks the second man asked him to demonstrate, so the first man jumped off the bridge and flew back. The second man dumbfounded decided why not give it a try. He jumped off and died. When the first man went back to the bar the bartender said, "Superman you are so cruel when you are drunk!"

3 things men hate...

1. Unfavorable comparisons... do NOT unfavorably compare us to your father, brother, brother-in-law-, and especially the ex. If we are superior in any way, then feel free to share.


2. Suggestions for improvement... men are fairly happy with who they are, so your attempts to "make us over" make us feel baffled or annoyed. We start questioning why you're with us in the first place.


3. The phrase, "You should know why I'm upset..." We don't. We'd love to know, though, so we can work through it. Not telling us is frustrating and counter-productive.

Facebook/phones: Guys, is there another one to add? What about backseat driving, or insisting that we HAVE to go out to a jam packed restaurant on Valentines Day? Oh, this is easy...

Why he's grumpy...

If your man has been a tad grumpy lately, you may want to cut him some slack because it's probably not his fault! A doctor told MSNBC that as men age, they will get grumpier, and dropping testosterone levels are to blame. Testosterone is what gives a man big muscles, lots of energy, and his nonstop need for a little lovin'. As men get older, that fades away, giving you a guy with what they call "Grumpy Old Man Complex." Fun, huh?

NEW DIET ALERT! NEW DIET ALERT! NEW DIET ALERT!

Here we go! It's January, which means we have to throw a new gimmicky diet into your life. This one is called the (sound the horns!)...

8 HOUR DIET!

The authors of a book, appropriately titled "The 8 Hour Diet: Watch the Pounds Disappear Without Watching What You Eat!", claim the world's obesity problem has more to do with WHEN we eat than WHAT we eat. Translation: We eat ALL the time!

The book claims we can lose 20 pounds in six weeks by eating within an 8 hour period. Choose any 8 hours, but nothing beyond that. Could you do it? More here

5 celeb couples we don't want to hear about in 2013

From YourTango.com...

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian... good luck - she's preggers. This is ALL we'll hear about this year.

Rihanna and Chris Brown

Taylor Swift and Harry Styles With Taylor's relationship track record, this shouldn't be a problem

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez... wait, are they on again? I thought...oh, never mind.

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris... his new wife. She ran away from him just before the wedding last time. That dose of sanity didn't last long, apparently.
