Lynn's Explanation of Women's Words

(From Lynn - with mild changes)
************
You may have seen this before but I think it's funny and might make you smile...I also think it is very true though I do not think they are not gender specific (for men #2: if he's watching TV, this what men say until you get angry enough that he is not longer willing to risk not getting out of the chair).
 

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 women 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.

7a. Thanks (said nicely): A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome.

7b. Thanks (said sarcastically): You are not being helpful and I don't know why I bothered to ask

8 . Whatever: Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

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?" For the woman's response refer to #3.
