I totally agree! I don't even read things like this because I'm tired of some keyboard banger who is getting paid by the word telling me what to do. Basically I'm tired of the whole media trying to tell me the "right" ways to "be a man".

And you know what? If you are a lucky and/or an attractive/exciting person it will not even matter what kind of mess you live in or how you live your life. You will still have success with the opposite sex.

She said to me, "yeah, but his mother is going to be judging what the place looks like, and she won't be judging him about it."
I would agree that, to a point, men are given more of a pass for being sloppy. It's the flip side of the "stereotype of men as slobs" coin...though I do feel like there is or should be a shelf life on this. When you're living like it's a college dorm room when you're 40, ick.

Did anybody really click on that link looking to find important, life-altering news reporting? Come on.
I would agree in principle, but there's only one problem; this article wasn't entertaining. I don't even mean that subjectively.

I have relatively poor sleep habits I suppose, as in I don't go to bed for 8 hours every night. If I did that I'd only have 3-4 hours of being awake at home, and that sucks.

And i will occasionally drink from a container, but only when i can finish it and throw it away, I don't feel like dirtying a glass and cleaning it later, especially if I don't have to.

Otherwise the rest of those do not apply to me, but someone might get upset because I usually have a few empty water bottles laying around lol.

What world do people live in that they have time to sleep 8 hours a night?
