Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures?
Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station toilet because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5,000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day holiday requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can do your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.
No wonder men are happier.
Since Becky asked me, I will post a review of my latest Netflix movies. First off, despite all the warnings, I watched Posieden. I only gave it one star on Netflix as it was basically a very poor copy of the original. I think they used their budget on the special effects of the boat being turned over by a rogue wave. Seems that they didn’t have any money left over for things like a plot or some interesting story lines. Probably the best thing I can say about the movie is that it is only 90 minutes long. Do yourself a favor and skip it.
As for Lucky Number Slevin, quite a different review. I liked this movie. Now the story wasn’t original or complicated, as I have seen it many times in many different movies. It is relatively easy to figure out what is going to happen and what the surprise at the end will be. It certainly wasn’t the pattented character betrayed by Bruce Willis. I think this is the only character he can play any more. It wasn’t that Josh Harnett spent the first 40 minutes in nothing but a towel, but some of you may like that. It could be that Lucy Liu looks very good in this movie. It could be the great cast. It could be that I am just drawn to the dark suspense thriller. It could be that it had a Taratino kind of quality. Or it could just be that it was a pretty good movie. Rent it yourself and let me know what you think.
