I don't make a habit of reading advice columns, but once and awhile I'll scan them to see what other people are doing [or not doing] with their lives. Today I came across this gem:
DEAR ELLIE: This is directed to all women but to new brides in particular:
I've been married one year and I've had it with "honey-do" lists. I think I speak for a lot of men out there when I say this: Men are frustrated. They are trying hard to support and understand where women are coming from. Now it's time for women to understand where men are coming from.
Men have to rest when they get home from work. If they don't rest, they'll be tired and cranky the next day. They won't be productive, and they'll lose their jobs.
Men don't have the luxury of lying around all day eating bonbons and watching "Oprah." They have to rest in order to be good providers, and women need to realize that.
Oh. My. God. Unintentionally funniest letter EVER.
Answer here.
Duck, duck, goose

is this caveman for real? rest is for pussies who work easy jobs but still need to feel like they worked hard. screw them. if you have been married for a year, when you get home you should be bedding your woman down (twice), fix the toilet and then build that new entertainment stand. fuck this lazy bastard....he gives us all a bad name...
Oh Al. If I weren't in a commited relationship I'd be after you. Mrow!
I feel sorry for his wife. He whines that all women do is sit around eating bon bons, but he's probably one of those assholes who thinks women shouldn't be working outside the house and are supposed to stay at home doing housework.
What an ass.
Holy crap. I think I've just been transported back to 1952.
Either that or a rerun of Married ... With Children.
I understand where he's coming from. The flaw here is that he thinks only men need to rest. Anyone who works needs to rest when they come home from work...including me. What's so wrong about it?
Some women do lay around eating bon bons. Those bitches need to get to work and start pulling in some dollars.
