Strategic Responses to the Eternal Question...

“Honey, do I look fat?”

Listen, guys, at some point all women ask this question. The correct answer, of course, is “Certainly not, dear.” But here, compliments of Frank, are a few examples  of things you should not, under any circumstances, reply:

  • woman_09.jpg“No, not to Stevie Wonder.”
  • “Does this tie make me look stupid?”
  • “No habla Ingles.”
  • “Yes, but it also makes you look like a pricey hooker, so things kinda balance out.”
  • “If I answer that question, then the terrorists have won.”
  • “Okay, listen: What’s important is that you not focus in a negative way on the comparison I am about to make.”
  • “Yes, but in my country obesity suggests prosperity.”
  • “Let me jog around to your front and take a look.”
  • “No, honey. But just to be safe, steer clear of one-legged sea captains.”

I know I'm walking a narrow line here, Sara... But I tried to appar objective, right?

That's so bad it's good! But if you say I said so, I'll deny it!
