I post about how manly I am on EoFF.
I...
Hm.
Since my list would make War and Peace look like a pamphlet, I will refrain.
Check for all of these.Quote:

-Used a shotgun and know how to load it (been a long time since I've done that though)
-Sorta can drive stick, just not a good idea to let me. :p
-Fix small things around the house as well as install them
-Operate a low horsepower boat motor
Probably other things that I cannot think of right now either...
Most of this stuff is more of me being a country boy than anything and my dad's doing. He had wanted to teach me how to drive a bulldozer before I went to university, though he never did. I still don't know why he wanted to. Part of the logic is that he can operate a lot of that stuff thus he thinks he should teach me too, I think.
I'm somewhat handy with tools
I can burp like, twice as loud as Huxley can!
I (could) outdrink Huxley. (I've lost a lot of weight and I don't eat enough anymore, so I'm become lightweight. :()
I like cars...? I mean, everyone does, but I always rave about cars down the street when I look at them and the models and none of the guys I've ever dated cared about cares - makes me feel manly!
I can't think of any more. I bet Huxley can though.
I'm getting a Masters degree. Oh, that doesn't sound so manly? It's a Masters in war.
I came! :blush:
Never watched The Notebook
First alcoholic beverage
Had sexual relations :smug:
Never watched Titanic
Know how to manual
If nobody had said these then I would never have thought of them. I am not very manly.
I liked The Notebook :(
You're probably more manly than someone who thinks having their first drink is manly.Quote:

I wear aviators. Does that count? Aviators are pretty manly. I mean, I look like a dick, but a manly dick right?
1. Never watched The Notebook. (Who would want to?)

You don't really get womanly dicks, no.
EDIT: First post I've ever seen where even the seconds were the same. xD
Depends what you're drinking...Quote:

There is absolutely nothing wrong with watching Titanic if you watch the bits of it with Kate Winslet's waps and then everybody dying.
And watching the beauty of their love unfolding before your eyes :heart: (SPOILER)(their love of ICY WATER AND DROWNING HA HA HA HA HA!!!)
I WRESTLED A teddy BEAR AND WON
When I was younger, I'd only watch the second tape of the VHS, because that was the part with all the cool special effects and everyone dying. No titties, but it was an age where those confused me more than aroused.Quote:

What are your Man-complishments?
I cry at Hallmark commercials.
I like a lot of chick flicks.
I do foreplay and cuddle.
I open the car door for my wife sometimes.
I do most of the cooking and cleaning.
...wait... wrong list.
Lets see, in no particular order:
- I no longer live at home with my parents after the age of 21 or ask them for money EVER! (If your Irish its a big deal!)
- Received "oral pleasure" from a complete stranger (female) in a night club :p
- Knocked out 4 people whilst fighting
- Had sex with a woman 14 years my senior ;)
- Never thought about making this thread!
- I can bench press more then I weight
- Drank 98% proof alcohol & didn't need medical attention!
But foreplay is an essential part. I mean, I get when your libido is all "DO IT NOW" but yeah, foreplay usually enhances the experience!Quote:

I'm pretty much a tomboy, but let's see...
1. I beat my friends at arm-wrestling today
2. I am a black belt in taekwondo
3. I have a first place sparring medal
4. Never watched The Notebook, or Titanic, or any of that girly crap
5. I eat really spicy foods WITHOUT CRYING
:)
>>> My testosterone levels are over the charts!. That would be enough to be the manliest man..:luca:
I use to be able to sing the second G below the middle C
Now i can just barely hit the B flat above that...
I fought a bear in the rocky mountains with only a stick and my trusty hound to help. It was a frightening experience and I have the scars to prove it. You see I came upon a cub and my dog, being that he was a dog, growled at it. We were next to a stream of course and smack right out of the water a momma bear-shark descended upon us.
I lost my good friend in that battle, Lewis. He wasn't a very smart guy, he thought he could hug the robot and it would all be fine. It was a robot-bear-shark you see. She started to shoot lasers at us and saws came out of it's robot-bear-shark chest and chopped dear Lewis up. My trusty hound and I were frightened but I had my stick.
Then it seemed the smooth informative voice of Morgan Freeman was heard, "I will kill you." When in hindsight, this wasn't very smooth at all. Informative yes but it wasn't as smooth as one would want that saying to go over.
It just so happened to have a file on hand that sounded like Morgan Freeman, it wasn't actually him at all. I was a bit relieved because Morgan Freeman AND a robot-bear-shark would really have done me in.
So the Morgan Freeman-robot-bear-shark was moving in for it's kill against me. I threw my spear, my stick, it was sturdy enough and while Morgan Freeman-robot-bear-shark was killing my friend lewis I carved the end into a point, to pierce it's heart. It died.
I'm that manly.

I can drive a stick. Hell, I can drive a tractor which is way less forgiving and the clutch takes the weight a small nation to push in not to mention the fact that on every tractor I've had to drive the full motion of the clutch was about a foot deep.
I can drive a manual because I'm not American :monster:
I drive automatic because I enjoy convenience and a pleasant driving experience. :monster:
I'm American and I can drive a manual with a crash box. :mad2:Quote:

I watch a lot of sports.
Having to shave my facial hair daily.
Replacing my predominantly pink/purple sig/avatar combo with an unhappy apple.
Also, Freya's post. <3
I could also say I wear old spice but that's a lie.
So instead I give you this man. He's what all men should be like. He is awesome. And on a horse.
Indeed xDQuote:

Not for the opening of the door part. I reckon that's pretty manly. Cooking can be viewed as a manly thing if you look at it in a different way. I'd say a very large percentage of head chefs are men these days, at least, according to a news article I read sometime back when some female chef was angry about it.Quote:

One of them isn't, surprisingly.
Quin makes all the boys cry in bed. The big hunk of man.
Which is most awkward; the man crying at any point during or after, the chick crying during, or the chick crying during from laughter?Quote:

Crymaxing in the sack. Nothing better.
I'm not a man at all. :( Although, if a guy tried to put on The Notebook I'd be like WTFNOO GET IT OFF. Don't watch any of that girly crap me.
But wait, if you don't like the Notebook, how are we supposed to know you're not a dude?Quote:

Uh he doesn't mean like that. At a certain level of revs, you can switch gears without using the clutch at all in a manual car. Or so I hear, I've never actually done/seen it.
the best part about titanic was topless kate winslet.
like the fist of an angry god.
This! Exactly this. I learned how to do it rather well a couple of years ago, I was rather proud of myself.Quote:

I am a second Degree Black Belt in TaeKwonDo.
Stemming from the above comment, the weapons found in my bedroom are five swords (Two wooden practice, two bamboo and one steel), a Bo staff and two pairs of Nunchaku. I am able to use the Nunchaku properly too, which means I don't hurt myself when using them. I use two at a time. (They are surprisingly hard to use. People who are not trained with them tend to beat themselves up with them)
I can eat a board of Matzoh plain. (Matzoh is a giant saltine cracker but it's dry without the salt part.)
:p
HOLY CRAP! you eat saltines with out salt?

It's all part of being Jewish. When Pesach comes around I can't eat leavened bread for the duration of the holiday (8 days) :p

I think I understand what he means now. Basically ripping and nearly destroying the gears so you can switch them without using the clutch. It's like that extremely grinding sound when you do it wrong, only ten times worse.
It's possible, but only morons would do that to their own car, or allow someone else to do it to theirs.
Stripped and re-roofed a house in a few days. Tore hundreds of pounds of vines and dead limbs out of the woods and burned them in Georgia summer heat and humidity. Those are probably the best ones.
I read and agree with Maddox.
It's basically just a part that lets you depress the clutch to change gears then release, before it was harder to switch gears.Quote:

I saw this in action on Top Gear. It makes downshifting so easy, it's like a video game ('cept there's a clutch). But then, what's the point of driving a manual at all if the car smooths out the downshifts for you?Quote:
Putting power to the rear wheels is a six-speed SynchroRev Match manual transmission, which is the worlds first synchronized downshift rev matching system. The system "blips" the throttle on downshifts and upshifts, matching engine speed to the next chosen gear, smoothing out gear changes. The driver still has to engage the clutch and move the gear lever, but the computer handles the rest.
On the other hand, paddle shifters are cool because F1 cars have them. xDQuote:
For those who can't even handle that much, a seven-speed fully automatic transmission is also available with paddle shifters.
Man, that's retarded. I hate automatic transmissions and all those innovations. :mad2:
Don't worry, manuals will always pull up faster.
Not to mention all the automatics make the manual cars cheaper.
True, very true. Faster, better on gas and cheaper in general. :cool:
I look good in a dress.
