It is a CODE-ed world


I was surfing the Internet a while back when I came across this term >>>>>>> “THE GUY CODE”.

It’s not a new term to me because I have heard about it in some movies. I thought it was just an ordinary term used by guys to “feel among” till I used GOOGLE (like they say Google is your friend). My search proved to me that the guy code really EXISTS!!!

The Guy code is a like a Law book, guiding the ‘”brothers” way of life. It has sections, sub-sections, codes, rules et all. It has the features of a constitution and believe me, it is a pretty long list. Here are some funny ones that caught my fancy (N.B Girls are not meant to read/see it…. *sips coke*)

1. If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever! Unless you actually marry her.

2. When questioned by a friend's girlfriend, you need not and should not provide any information as to his whereabouts. You are even permitted to deny his very existence.

3. Under no circumstances may two men share an umbrella.

4. Women who claim they "love to watch sports" must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to pick a Buffalo wing clean.

5. If a man’s zipper is down, that’s his problem, you didn’t see anything!

6. No man shall spend more than 2 minutes in front of a mirror. If more time is required, a three minute waiting period must be allowed before returning to the mirror.

7. Any dispute lasting any longer than 3 minutes will and must be settled by rock, paper, scissors. There is no argument too important for this determining method.

8. No man should EVER sit on another man's lap.

* with every set of laws, there are appropriate punishments. If any man shall happen to break any one of these codes, he will be found guilty, and will, for 24 hours from the time of the violation, be considered NOT A MAN. During this time he will not be referred to in any masculine way, and he shall bear the name Princess.  

I really laughed hard after reading the rules, because some of them are really funny. My best rule is “No 7”because I have observed that trait in guys… most of  them hardly keep malice with each other and that is a good trait.





Whatever is good for the goose is certainly good for the gander…. I went in search of THE GIRL CODE.

I had to search thoroughly and even read some books so I could have my facts about the girl code.

The girl code is a set of rules guiding the female race. It gives ideas and methods about how a Girl (lady) should act/behave. Here are a few of them (with my opinion attached).

1.      Never choose a guy over your friend:- welcome to nollywood where a girl discovers that her fiancĂ© is cheating on her and she begins to attack the girl in question and then a fight ensures between the two of them while the guy in question smiles in one corner watching the drama…*smh*

                                                                                               

2.      A girl can declare a perfume her own if she started wearing it first:- when I used my own money to buy perfume, you’ll now tell me I can’t wear it because you got it first???... stop dreaming.

                                                          

3.      A lady never says or does things that make others feel small:- wait till you see the ladies of  “Timbre and Caliber” ..lol



4.      A lady does not smack her gum at the office:- have you been to a police station here or even some banks? Some things are best felt when experienced first hand…lol

                                                                                     

5.      When a lady’s car breaks down on the highway, she does not attempt to flag down a passing motorist. She waits for a law enforcement officer to arrive:- In this country??? NO COMMENT.



6.      A lady stands up for herself and is never a doormat:- try that in this part of the world and you are tagged “A FEMINIST”…sad.

                                                                                  

7.      A lady does not correct another persons grammer:- Huh?!... try making a grammatical error here in Lagos and believe me, you will trend…lol



8.      A lady does not buy clothes a size too small in hopes that someday she’ll be able to wear them:- some women actually think that wearing undersized clothes shrinks their weight/size by 2…yeah right.



9.      In a case where a friend spreads a horrible rumour about a friend and then apologizes, they are to be given the cold shudder for at least three days:- this is so true. Can you compare this rule to the No 7 rule of the guy code???...my thoughts exactly.



10.  Steer clear off men in relationships:- word of advice to the ladies- what goes around comes back around. Thank me later, Karma is real.

                                      

11.  Every girl must wait at least a day and a half before calling a guy whose number she has retrieved:- this is a fair deal but just have it in mind that there are many fishes in the sea, time waits for no one.

                                                      

12.  A lady offers to split the dinner tab with a gentleman:- HAHAHA….Guys/brothers what do you think????...lol

*THE PENEALTY FOR EXPOSING A SECRET TO AN UN-AUTHORIZED PARTY SHALL BE EXILE FROM GIRL-VILLE  (Seriously???)

Phew!....in  my (final) opinion, if you live by/subscribe to all the rules you have no use breathing, you should be a ROBOT (*laughs*).

            There a much simpler rule book. Its easy, cool and understandable. It is also stress-free. >>>>>>>>>>> PROVERBS 31: 10-31….. Se finir!
