Let’s just say yuck!
For example:
The black gunk and gunk under the nails need to picked off using a nail.
Why shave? Lets save last dinner for today lunch.
I don’t call “lifting a beer mug” fifty times a work out.
And yes I think changing your socks every so often in a day is a good idea after sweating in them.
But hey I can’t just blame my bros here.
Here are some examples of the women that I have seen here in Anchorage:
Don’t call her pregnant! She’s really not.

I could'nt find my size so I used a car covers as underwear.
Skinny chicks, if your bones are popping out. Bust out your hot pants, you are going to be the hottest things in town.
I got 6 kids at home but hey its cool, I got room for some more.
Hey they all drink here so if your ugliest guy, no worry the native got some R&R for the ladies to fix their sight. "most are bugged eyed" all the in-breeding.

Well here you go. If you come to Alaska, no worry you will meet your special someone.
What the hell is this? A freakin' idjit, that's what.

You're going to find a LOT more men than women in "bush Alaska" (which is the term for any Alaska native village not accessable to the road system by vehicle -- you need to fly into "bush Alaska", or in some cases, some villages are accessable by boat or ferry)

There is a joke up here that refers to all the men, and it goes:

"The odds are good... but the goods are odd"

I always thought that was pretty funny! (Even though not all our guys are odd )

Anyway.. yeah.. places such as Fairbanks, Homer, Haines, (etc..) and rural bush villages do have more men than women according to local stats.
Thanks for the heads-up; I'll pick the University of Alaska Anchorage campus over Fairbanks. They both have my major, I think.

Those are the kind of men that NEED to be alone. Or prefer it that way.

Well do they need Math teachers - and would they treat a math teacher like a decent intelligent human being and not like a body part?! Because that's what I get everywhere else, the populated parts of Canada INCLUDED.

I was simply pointing it out. You could have started a new thread. Threads are only CLOSED when they get out of hand.
