*Chuckles* I am severely guilty of #2. It's become some weird meal-time ritual. My boyfriend thinks I am a goofball. But he's the one who started it really; making such lovely looking meals. =)

6. Your Car

... or your motorcycle.

Sorry if it offends, but to some boys they seem to be phallic.

On the Blue Ridge Parkway I regularly see this scene:

Some guy will pull his car or bike into an overlook. In the car or on the bike he'll have a women who is unbelievable - straight out of the pages of Playboy magazine.

He'll position the vehicle so it's on the edge. He'll get out to take a pic of it with the scenery as the background and say something like this to the woman: "Ahheeemm, excuse me but can you move a little? You're in the picture."

Always makes me laugh and shake my head. I often wonder which one he'd rather have laying next to him when he sleeps at night - the woman or the vehicle.
