That's not you. Boys just think they know everything.

Women are no different. Well, maybe a bit more passive aggressive about it, but I'd say that depends on the guy, too. Most of the wienie guys I hang out with are quite skilled in the art of passive aggression.

Certainly, but a lot of dudes argue things as if they are objective facts with quantifiable evidence pointing to the true answer. Sometimes you can't tell if they're arguing about politics or baseball.

Don't know that I agree but eh.

Mission accomplished.

I don't know that I do, either. I just wanted to bring up Chuck Palahniuk again. See? Passive aggressive.

I'm pretty good at being passive aggressive because I'm a bad person.

duff

You're a bad person and you're passive aggressive.

I'm more of a barely repressed rage sort of agressive than a passive agressive. It's a lot more entertaining that way, I think. And barely repressed rage agressive is much easier to channel into different, more useful, activities.

There's never a wrong time for passive aggression.

I enjoyed reading fight club. Then I read survivor. Then I got a quarter of the way through invisible monsters and was like "haven't I read this before?"

Now I read Monkey vs Robot.
I am much happier.

That reminds me of a greeting card I read once. On the outside it said "I'd love to hear from you..." and on the inside, it read "Unless you were dead, then it would be kinda scary."

Yeah, mentioning chicken salad before lunch was a bad idea. Especially since food was not in my future.

I'm not a chicken salad fan.

Tuna salad is where it's at.

I have nothing to say about salads.

Tuna salad is so pedestrian.

And chicken isn't? There's a reason everything tastes like chicken.

Chicken is pedestrian. Chicken Marsala, Chicken Angela, and chicken salad are not.

The best chicken salad I ever tried had walnuts and dried cranberries in it.

P.S. You two better be coming to the cookout...

Little pieces of grapes and apples does a lot for it too. Adds a nice bit of sweetness and freshness.

ps I'll have to think about it. It's so expensive. There are people I'd like to meet though...
