9. When stumbling upon other guys watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who's playing.
10. There is no reason for guys to watch Ice Skating or Men's Gymnastics. Everâ¦

20. Never join your girlfriend or wife in discussing a friend of yours, except if she's withholding sex pending your response.
21. Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing (i.e., both urinating, both waiting in line, etc.). For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.

23. The morning after you and a girl who was formerly "just a friend" have carnal, drunken monkey sex, the fact that you're feeling weird and guilty is no reason for you not to nail each other again before the discussion occurs about what a big mistake it was.

26. The girl who replies to the question "What do you want for Christmas?" with "If you loved me, you'd know what I want!" gets an Xbox. End of story.
We hope this clears up any confusion,
Should probably add something about not rubbing sun block on another guy. Don't!
