\</FONT\>\<HR\>TEN WAYS TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE PMS

1. Everyone around you has an attitude problem.

2. You’re adding chocolate chips to your cheese omelet.

3. The dryer has shrunk every last pair of your jeans.

4. Your husband is suddenly agreeing to everything you say.

5. You’re using your cellular phone to dial up every bumper sticker that says: “How’s my driving-call 1-800-_ **-** _\*.”

6. Everyone’s head looks like an invitation to batting-practice.

7. You’re convinced there’s a God and he’s male.

8. You’re counting down the days until menopause.

9. You’re sure that everyone is scheming to drive you crazy.

10. The ibuprofen bottle is empty and you bought it yesterday.\</FONT\>\</P\>

No, unfortunately, there is not. Although, it would really have to be “Favorite Deity” as it would have to include Imthecowgodmoo, pluto, the God of Frogs and David B. On the other hand, other categories have “Male” and “Female” divisions, so’d there be “Favorite Goddess” and “Favorite God”.

Maybe you could just start a thread on it…

I’m just trying to get myself more posts. I’ve gotta catch up. I wanna have more than Satan (yeah, right).

Padding my stats. Should I look up to those with more than 500 posts or should I suggest they should have more hobbies?

Is “Post-padding” anything like point shaving?
