h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Dr Kareem, if you're asked "what are you thinking about?" my techinque is usually to say "you". Even if its a lie it seems to work quite well.

You're lucky to have met women who believed that! Most of the women I've met see right through me, so I've learned not to be dishonest in any way...

You all know there is no escape. Just give in to us now. It will make us all much more happy. Except us, we'll just think up other ways to torture you... and they'll be much worse than "what are you thinking" and "does this make my bum look big"

"Does my bum look big in this" is an EASY one!
Except when it's really a trap, but even then, it's not too hard to give the right answer.

perfect, is normally what I say(about their bum)...it works more often than not. But I actually tell them what I'm thinking about (unless it's some other girl, even then I might tell them). And if they get mad at me I ask them would they rather me lie...

I think your comment above Yowusupman was a turn-on in itself -the thought that you consider it a challenge trying to work out what's going on in your girl's head.

And I might be perverse, but I find it exciting to think he's thinking about others - or better still doing it with others. He might learn something new.

*hovers over "post message" not sure if this one should go off. Having had half a bottle of whisky, hand slips...*

Ah, TC and I thought I was the only one who thought like that....

So, boys: what is the right answer to "does my bum look big in this"? Because it's not always no... Sometimes it's a trap.... sometimes a convoluted entry into some other conversation/trap...

It's so simple, really: just say the truth... (even if that is NOT what is wanted.)
I've become the one my female friends call when they want to go shopping, because they appreciate honest advice.
(Newbies at this had better have a good reason before "dissing"... and should start with refining their own dress-sense first. Sometimes some idleness can be good.)
