on the nose.

Words words women use:

1. fine: this is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2. five minutes: if she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3. nothing: this is the calm before the storm. this means something, and you should be on your toes. arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

4. go ahead: this is a dare, not permission. don't do it!

5. loud sigh: this is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. a loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.

6. that's okay: this is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. that's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7. thanks: a woman is thanking you. do not question or faint. just say you're welcome.

8. whatever: is a woman's way of saying how stupid you are!

9. don't worry about it, i got it: another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. this will later result in a man asking "what's wrong?" refer to # 3 for the woman's response.
