Encouraging Kleenex

 Words of consolation insribed on Kleenex
 
(0) 		  [vote for,

Every male knows the akward situations that arise when thier female companions decide that it is time to cry profusely. It is my proposal that a specialized portable package of kleenex be made that has printed upon its soft and absorbing surface various phrases of encuragement. Consoling phrases such as "its just a movie", "its OK to just be friends", and "I did'nt mean to run over your chihuahau" would be incribed over and over, hopefully lifting the spirits of said crier through honest consolation or more likely through laughter.

       "He was only joking"   

       "You are not fat"   

       "Everyone has their clumsy days"   

       "You'll get it next time"   

       Laughter can be the best medicine. And especially when crying is involved. Have a croissant with your kleenex.

       "Ran out of toilet paper again, huh?" +

       and for the men - "it happens!"

       well - denial, has to have one advantage at least :)

       Women love to whine to their signifigant others when sick, and of course expect serious sympathy. This could get you men out of those situations.   

       "No use in two people lying on the couch, tell him to go out with his friends"   

       "Don't feel bad, his chicken soup would probably taste like crap anyway."

       Men on the other hand, handle their illness with the minimum of fuss and whinging. Not.

       You know that having sex while you have a cold helps you get better faster and is one of the fastest natural ways to break a fever. ;)
—babyhawk, Jan 17 2004
   

       Oh yes [babyhawk]. I'm aware of that.
—hazel, Jan 17 2004
   

       //Furthermore, being cold while you're having sex helps you get faster better. I believe//   

       you should try playing with ice....it really makes it fun! ;)

       "No. It's snot."
—Cedar Park, Jan 18 2004
   

       I'm not sure how this idea would work. Would the different sentences be in the same package? Wouldn't you run the risk of handing a "No, I don't think you're fat" to a girl with anorexia?
