re "Can I ask you a question?" - I always answer No. I love the look on their faces.

"Takes pains to be beautiful" - I hate that one. Haven't figured out a good response yet.

How about "You first!" of "Why don't we work on that together?"

Edit: Oh, oops.. I read that as "Take pains to be beautiful" :oops:

I tend to like curvy, well-endowed women but I am indifferent as to hair color.

If it's someone I want to date, having the same interests is far more important than physical stuff.

I have noticed with some men that if a woman is a bleached blonde and has a bombshell figure she could have both the face and the personality of a she-goat and they wouldn't notice.

My grandma has a saying..."JFDI". It stands for Just F***ing Do It. She says this to me everytime I'm pondering about whether or not I should do something and how I should do it. It really annoys me because I can't just do something, I need to think about it.

if I was a relative or friend on one of those dead people, I'd be offended by anyone who said "everything happens for a reason" to me, as if it changed my actual loss into something noble.

In CERT training you are taught how to operate an emergency morgue and one of the first things they teach you is what not to say to the family members of the deceased. And that is all those kind of related cliches. Better just to keep your mouth shut.

My whole family swears quite a lot, not just my grandma. My mum is the worst because she even accidently swears when talking to strangers.

No, i'm not kidding you.

98% of men here prefer brunettes, and brunettes ALWAYS top out on online polls voted on by men. Every guy i've ever asked has said Brunette. I would love to see someone prove me wrong. I can even link you people to some of the threads people have made.

Well that just proves the cliche "some are sicker than others" to be true :lol:

Blondes are people with an extra angelic feature.

This makes the devils mad.

"Life is unfair"

I hate this expression but usually people say to me 'that's life' which I suppose is quite similar. If someone says this to me I make a noise like a disgruntled hippo and bang my head hard! It P****S ME OFF!! ! Yeah, of course 'that's life' but you don't have to keep blooming remind me!
