Isn't there a cleaning monster, or a house elf, or something?

*puts tarts down on folding camp stool near mari, and produces creme brulee, as well*

I think you'll be able to manage the creme brulee.

hectorberlioz · 02-14-2008, 12:11 PM

This is for all the lovely ladies here at Entmoot

Happy Valentine's Day!

**Mari** · 02-14-2008, 01:21 PM

Oh, creme brulee! Yeah, I should be able to handle that. Yay!

Thanks Sis!
The Cleaning Monster is a good idea! We should ask GW about it. But I think we would have to have at least three of them to be able to keep up with the mess we sometimes make of it...

"Lovely gentlemen", however, is a perfectly reasonable concept.

getleman, gentleman....you know what I meant!

Men don't deserve Valentine's Day greetings or candy. At least, not you guys

**Mari** · 02-14-2008, 02:34 PM

You'd have to wait for March 14th for that: White Day. At least in the Japanese system.

On Valentines day women give chocolate to their friends, superiors and crushes, on White day it's the men's turn.

So I suppose today is the day I should give chocolate... okay then:

Lots of chocolate for all of you!!!

Actually I believe in New York it's not uncommon to call a man 'lovely'. I know I've heard it said before. Like, "Well he was just a lovely man."

Or it might be an Australian thing. I can't remember

.

**Mari** · 02-14-2008, 02:41 PM

Why can you say "lovely" about a man, whereas you're not allowed to say "cute"? I don't understand the sensitivities some people have about the word cute...

Gwaimir Windgem · 02-14-2008, 02:43 PM

Ah, Valentine's Day! Yet another excuse for singles to drink themselves into a stupour.

sisterandcousinandaunt · 02-14-2008, 02:51 PM

You can say "cute" about guys.

"Justin Timberlake is cute."

Nothin' wrong with that sentance.

**Mari** · 02-14-2008, 02:59 PM

I didn't mean in that sense, I meant saying to guys: "You're cute". One friend of mine tends to pout, so my first reaction is aww you're so cute... and he doesn't like it when I say that at all.

It is the truth though. He is cute when he pouts.

Grey_Wolf · 02-14-2008, 03:13 PM

The Cleaning Monsters clears out the place in no time. Along the lines of "How Clean Is You're House?" - "This place has needed it for a long time!" says one the ClngMs looking at the infested stoves, piles of dirty laundry, cat and dog puke on the floor.

No, but there is something wrong with this one.

In that case, he's mostly objecting that you aren't saying. "OMG! Your ferocious masculinity positively overwhelms me! I wish to bear you many strong sons!"

It's a role/status issue.

Listen to Sis on this one, Mari.

Sis, I love how you phrase it

.

Note to the female species: Don't tell a guy he looks cute when he pouts.

There's nothing more despicable than a pouty guy. We guys must crusade against it!

**Mari** · 02-14-2008, 03:38 PM

But he does look cute when he pouts! And he is half a head shorter then I am, which makes it nothing other then cute. No arguing possible.
Sis, you really think that's it? Should try that on him once. Wonder how he'll react if I say that...

He'll probably run away screaming... yes definitely worth a try

Oh, that darn "a".

It will creep in. You should see my posts, first draft. Anything long I have to copy from a word doc.

Not a natural speller, me.
