Seems to directly contradict this:

Too right.

These are my faves:
  • Desserts are for women. Order one and pretend you don’t mind that she’s eating yours.
    Buy a tuxedo before you are thirty. Stay that size.
    One girlfriend at a time is probably enough.

And I INVENTED this:

Don’t ever say, “it is what it is.”

The bit about how lame it is to be feigned or actually pretentious and then the one about starting a wine collection for your child upon his birth -- uh.... Anyone else see a bit of a disconnect there?


On a different topic, how do you get underlined words to link to something? I thought you press the little globe with a link from a chain (Ha! Get it?!?), and type the words you want underlined either in the first popup box or the second one, but I tried it both ways and it didn't work either way.
