 !!
  
   - Phone conversations last 30 seconds;
   - You know useful stuff about tanks and airplanes;
   - A five day vacation requires only one suitcase;
   - Bathroom lines are 80% shorter;
   - You can open all your jars:
   - Old friends don't give you crap if you've lost or gained
 weight;
   - You can go to the bathroom alone;
   - Your last name stays put;
   - You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness;
   - You can be showered and ready in ten minutes;
   - Wedding plans take care of themselves;
   - If someone forgets to invite you to something, they can still
 be your friend;
   - Your underwear cost $7.50 for a pack of three;
   - None of your co-workers have the power to make you cry;
   - You don't have to shave below your neck;
   - You don't have to curl up next to some big, hairy guy every
 night;
   - Chocolate is just another snack;
   - Three pairs of shoes are more than enough;
   - You can say anything and not worry about what people think;
   - You can whip your shirt off on a hot day;
   - Car mechanics tell you the truth;
   - You don't have to flip if someone doesn't notice your haircut;
   - One mood ... all the time;
   - You can admire Clint Eastwood without having to starve
 yourself to look like him;
   - Same work ... more pay;
   - Grey hair and wrinkles add character;
   - Wedding dress $2,000 .... tux rental $100;
   - You don't pass on the dessert and then mooch off someone
 else's;
   - If you retain water, it's in a canteen;
   - The remote is yours and yours alone;
   - You need not pretend you're "freshening up" when you go to the
 bathroom;
   - If another guy shows up at the party in the same outfit, you
 might become lifelong buddies;
   - The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected.
