One of the most annoying questions in the Universe is: Why aren’t you married yet? Today we offer you some comebacks for the next time someone asks you.

Comebacks To The Question: “Why Aren’t You Married Yet?”

1. I’m still auditing the role of spouse.
2. No one I’ve met seems to be THAT stupid.
3. You haven’t asked yet.
4. Do you do EVERYTHING that’s trendy?
5. I was hoping to do something meaningful with my life.
6. Uh, check, please!
7. Because I just love hearing this question.
8. Just lucky, I guess.
9. It gives my mother something to live for.
10. My fiancee is awaiting his/her parole.
11. I’m still hoping for a shot at Miss/Mr. America.
12. Do you know how hard it is to get two tickets to Miss Saigon?
13. I’m waiting until I get to be your age.
14. It didn’t seem worth a blood test.
15. I already have enough laundry to do, thank you.
16. Because I think it would take all the spontaneity out of dating.
17. My co-op board doesn’t allow spouses.
18. I’d have to forfeit my billion dollar trust fund.
19. They just opened a great singles bar on my block.
20. I wouldn’t want my parents to drop dead from sheer happiness.
21. I guess it just goes to prove that you can’t trust those voodoo doll rituals.
22. What? And lose all the money I’ve invested in running personal ads?
23. I don’t want to have to support another person on my paycheck.
24. Why aren’t you thin?
25. My boy/girlfriends would never understand.
26. I’m married to my career, although recently we have been considering a trial separation.
27. (Bonus reply for Single Mothers) Because having a husband and a child would be redundant.

Top 12 things likely to be overheard if there was a Klingon Programmer on the staff

Have you ever wondered how life would change if we had Klingons working alongside us? You’d be really careful that you had ten items or less in that check out line, wouldn’t you?

Top 12 things likely to be overheard if there was a [tag]Klingon[/tag] [tag]Programmer[/tag] on the staff

12) “Specifications are for the weak and timid!”

11) “This machine is a piece of GAGH! I need dual Pentium processors if I am to do battle with this code!”

10) “You cannot really appreciate Dilbert unless you’ve read it in the original Klingon.”

9) “Indentation?! – I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!”

8) “What is this talk of ‘release?’ Klingons do not make software ‘releases.’ Our software ‘escapes,’ leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.”

7) “Klingon function calls do not have ‘parameters’ – they have ‘arguments’ — and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.”

6) “Debugging? Klingons do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak.”

5) “I have challenged the entire quality assurance team to a Bat-Leth contest. They will not concern us again.”

4) “A TRUE Klingon Warrior does not comment his code!”

3) “By filing this PTR you have challenged the honor of my family. Prepare to die!”

2) “You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand!”

And, the No. 1 thing most likely to be heard if Klingons were programmers:

1) “Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!”

The Rules of Chocolate

(This arrived in our inbox a while back. We feel that these rules will never stop being true. Enjoy!)

The Rules of Chocolate

* If you’ve got melted chocolate all over your hands, you’re eating it too slowly.

* Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices & strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

* The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car.
The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.

* Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It’ll take the edge off your appetite and you’ll eat less.

* A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Isn’t that handy?

* If you can’t eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer.

* But if you can’t eat all your chocolate, what’s wrong with you?

* If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves.

* If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a balanced diet? Don’t they actually counteract each other?

* Money talks. Chocolate sings.

* Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.

* Q. Why is there no such organization as Chocoholics Anonymous?
A. Because no one wants to quit.

* If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top pantyhose. An entire garment industry would be devastated.

* Put “eat chocolate” at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you’ll get one thing done.
