The Shiz My Boyfriend Says, Volume XXIII

by rachaelgking on February 19, 2010 · 84 comments

You all know this game by now. Time for another installment of “The Shiz My Boyfriend Says.” Woot!

(Oh, and bee tee dubs, I’ve had about a zillion requests for another round of Life Advice from B… so go ahead and ask your questions today! I’ll post his answers on Tuesday, if I can get him to do it by then. Tell him how handsome he is or something for encouragement.) 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

While watching an ITT Tech commercial, the happy couple’s children are bouncing away on a trampoline behind them… 

Commercial: “We didn’t know WHAT we were going to do when John got laid off…” 

B: And now we’re trampoline rich, bitch!!! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

B is a lover of all things chicken wing. Last week we ordered some and they happened to come with the buffalo sauce on the side. As I watched him slowly, tenderly, smother each wing in two different kinds of hot sauce, I couldn’t help myself… 

Me: So… you gonna make love to it or what? 

B: It used to be a GIRL chicken! Heyo!!! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

As our kitchen is roughly the size of Harry Potter’s cupboard under the stairs, it is rather hard to prepare anything without the cats being ALL up in our biznass… 

Me: Axe Murderer! Goddamnit! I will slap your face off your FACE if you don’t get out of here! 

B: Baby, it’s raw hamburger! What if someone was holding raw internet in front of you?! You’d be interested too! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

While waiting for the elevator in our building… 

B: You know what I hate? I hate when you’re already waiting for an elevator, and someone comes up behind you and pushes the already-lit button AGAIN. Because basically, what you’re saying is you think I’m too dumb to push the button. Like I’m actually stupid enough to think my scent is going to call the elevator to me. So pretty much, that means I should punch you in the face. Bam! 

Me: ………….. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Ahhh, men. 

Don’t forget to meet us out for Happy Hour tonight! 6pm at the Vapiano’s at 18th and M. I’ll be wearing my Love Harder shirt – FTW!

I LOVE these posts! This makes me want to bring back “Tips from the Popo” (the bf is a police officer and has sure fire tips) which are captain obvious tips BUT obviously people don’t use them LOL

4 confessor69 February 19, 2010 at 10:40 am

I LOVE shiz! Makes me so happy when it pops up in my reader. B’s a stitch.

I’m totally with him on stupid elevator behavior. Like, when you’re on the ground floor and someone runs up and asks if the elevator is going up. No, sir/ma’am…it’s going down…next stop: hell. Climb aboard, dumbass.

5 spleeness February 19, 2010 at 10:46 am

Raw internet!! That’s hilarious!

Question for B: If someone’s new date takes them to a surprise concert, should their musical taste be considered, thus ruining the surprise?

another question: how would guys celebrate Valentine’s day if they could do it anyway they wanted? Would it still involve chocolate?

For the record, you don’t need to be rich to own a trampoline.

Hello hello. Cheers for leaving a comment the other day.

Loved the last one of these especially. Yesterday on my way home from work I was stood at a crossing and someone came up and pressed the button and I wanted to poke them in the eye with my umbrella. Did they think I was just standing there counting cars?!
.-= The Girl´s last blog ..Happy Blogaversary! =-.

9 notsojenny February 19, 2010 at 11:00 am

i totally agree with B… it’s like they think that if THEY push the button it’s going to bring the elevator right down. somehow their button pushing is BETTER than mine. f that.

When peope push the button after me, I look them straight in the eye and push it one more time, for emphasis. I get the last push!

Question for B: If a guy is telling a girl that he loves her, misses her, wants to be with her, but the guy is dating another girl, what IS his deal? Is he worth waiting around for?

25 Kelsey February 19, 2010 at 12:00 pm

Haha that is so funny! I would have to agree about the elevator though. That’s a pet peeve of mine as well. Like hello! I know how to push the button! Use your detective skills to recognize that it’s lit up, meaning I pushed it, meaning be patient because the elevator is coming! :)

30 sherryrose February 19, 2010 at 12:25 pm

fortunately, my cat hasn’t figured out how to get up on the kitchen counters while i’m making dinner…yet…she does try to trip you to get the food though. damn sneaky cats.

question: should the sex be had on a first date to find out if the whole mess is worth a second date? or should the third date rule be followed? seems like it would be a shame to get to the third date, tag it, and find out you were wasting your time on the other two dates… (either way…if it’s good you should have been having more of the sex, if it’s bad, you should have been long gone)

patiently awaiting b’s sage, scrufy, yoda-like advice.

31 Nikolett February 19, 2010 at 12:51 pm

LOL I have to admit, I think the exact same thing about the elevator situation. Silly people, thinking we can’t press buttons. And now, thanks to B, I shall never think of chicken wings the same way, again. Have an amazing weekend :)

I called my bf (who is from New Zealand, so does not know things like we know things) from the grocery store asking what we should have for dinner. It was Fat Tuesday, so I said we should have something in honor of Mardi Gras.
He response: Pussy? Since its where girls take their clothes off?
Me: NO! Like something cajun or creole.
Ok, not so funny when I type it. It was funny when he said it, completely Innocently

I understand the cats in the kitchen ordeal! Our cats are generally good at staying off the counter when I cook, and have even learned to be good at dinner time (not begging results in treats later – they aren’t dumb), but they are HUGE fans of washing dishes! What’s up with that?? It’s WATER! But I have had to remove cats from the drainer, and from the sink itself, but most often just from the edge, because I get tired of being splashed by the mighty bubble hunters.
