  3. 1 You say 'mate' constantly. 2 You think it is perfectly normal to pay over three quid for a pint. 2Anyone not from London is a 'plonker'. 3 Anyone from outside London and north of the Watford Gap is a 'Northern Plonker'. 4 You have no idea where the North is, and 5 Cornwall is another country. 6 You see All Saints in the Met Bar (again) and find it hard to get excited about it. 7 The countryside makes you nervous. 8 Somebody speaks to you on the tube and you freak out thinking they are a stalker. 9 American tourists no longer annoy you. 10 You talk in postcodes. "God, it was really warm round SW1 the other day". 11 You can't remember the last time you got up to 30 mph in your car in the city. 12 You didn't realise that 'Paddington Green' is REAL. Feel Free to add more......
  4. Hmmmm!Well this reminds me of something huh... I had two major reasons for never wanting to get married. The first was that you can't have sex with other people. The second was that marriage is really just a legal method for the patriarchy to possess and subjugate women. You would not believe how long it took me to come up with the second reason. I didn't want to get married because, basically, I don't like thinking any further into the future than what I'm going to eat and how I'm going to get sex. Anything else is a hassle. Also, as an optimist, I like the thought of not knowing how the future will work out, the future of course consisting of what I'll eat and whom I'll have sex with. Once you know those things, all that's left is when you're going to die. And there's a website that calculates that. Still, because I've been living with my girlfriend for some time, everyone was on my case about getting married. But after 3 1/2 years of explaining to my girlfriend that I was too young to get married and getting almost enough mileage out of my damaged understanding of commitment to make my parents' divorce worth it, I started to feel that being married would be nice, a relief from contemplating what to do, a comfort in being able to plan the future. Plus, I realized the odds were slim of finding someone else who would let me write about her. Now, I've never proposed before, but I had some theories. Women, it seemed to me, like to be proposed to. It puts them in a good mood. It's a can't miss. So, the way I saw it, you should use it as an opportunity to go somewhere she wouldn't normally enjoy. Not only will you both have a good time, but she'll also have positive associations with that place. That's why so many guys do it at baseball games. I had my eye on Scores, the premier strip club in Manhattan. But then I thought that I'd rather not do it somewhere that's all glitzy and forced romantic, like Tahiti or Scores, places that don't represent our real life together, which is actually full of tedium and drudgery, though a really pleasant tedium and drudgery. So I made her a big tofu dinner in our studio apartment. Then I woke her up at 1:30 a.m. and told her that over the past six months, I've been tearing up over Friends episodes about marriage and the ending of What Women Want. I told her that my life was perfect and that I wanted to freeze it. She seemed to want me to get to the point so she could go back to sleep. I gave her the ring, and she cried, and we consummated our engagement in a way that, because of the late hour and general excitement, didn't last all that long. Afterward she said, "If this is what it's going to be like, I'm not sure I want to marry you." That's when I knew I had made the right decision. People keep asking if I'm excited, and I feel bad that I'm not. But I am happy. And calm. And relieved. And so much more sure than I thought a person could be. And I finally realized that I'd happily trade the excitement of the unknown for all that.
  5. It's bad enough that you step in dog poop, but you don't realize it till you walk across your living room rug. People behind you in a supermarket line dash ahead of you to a counter just opening up. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?" People who point at their wrist while asking for the time. The car behind you blasts its horn because you let a pedestrian finish crossing. The elevator stops on every floor and nobody gets on. The person behind you in the supermarket runs his cart into the back of your ankle. The radio station doesn't tell you who sang that song. There are always one or two ice cubes that won't pop out of the tray. There's a dog in the neighborhood that barks at EVERYTHING. There's always a car riding your tail when you're slowing down to find an address. Three hours and three meetings after lunch you look in the mirror and discover a piece of parsley stuck to your front tooth. When you need a salesperson, you can never find one. You can never put anything back in a box the way it came. You can't look up the correct spelling of a word in the dictionary because you don't know how to spell it. You drink from a soda can into which someone has extinguished a cigarette. You had that pen in your hand only a second ago, and now you can't find it. You have to inform five different sales people in the same store that you're just browsing. You have to try on a pair of sunglasses with that stupid little plastic thing in the middle of them. You open a can of soup and the lid falls in. You rub on hand cream and can't turn the bathroom doorknob to get out. You set the alarm on your digital clock for 7pm instead of 7am. You slice your tongue licking an envelope. You wash a garment with a tissue in the pocket and your entire laundry comes out covered with lint. Your glasses slide off your ears when you perspire. Your tire gauge lets out half the air while you're trying to get a reading. By.....M/S
