    When you get into a drinking contest, win or lose,whoever still consious is responsible for getting the other guy home, no mater how much the cab ride cost, or how heavy your freinds is. ( 5'10 160 pound chinese man may not sound heavy, but when pasted out, Good Lord)
    When the friend in 6'4" 245, get 4 other friends and a hotel laundry cart :mrgreen:

    I agree with everything except the socks....they're concealed more than half the time anyways.
    And the belt. Who tucks in their shirt? :?

    It's only acceptable to order a Pina Colada or Frozen Margarita when on an island of some sort.

    Never allowed to drink a wine cooler or a Zima.

    1 - You can only talk about your fantasy football teams with members of your league. Same goes for NCAA bracket pools. No one cares. Stop trying to tell me about things I could care less about. the minute I get stuck in a conversation where someone brings up their fantasy team I stop paying attention to them and focus on how I'm gonna get out of the conversation.

    2 - You shouldn't be allowed to bring signs or baseball gloves to sporting events once you're old enough to shave. Once you reach this age you shouldn't ask for autographs either.

    3 - No man should EVER drink an alcoholic beverage with a straw. For whatever reason non-alcoholic beverages with straws are acceptable.

    4 - No white sunglasses, belts, pants, or socks. Not good looks

    what other man laws should be implemented?

    nice list, pretty much spot on (except white socks, white socks with sneakers is acceptable)

    here are a few of mine.

    1) No man shall wear a jersey of a his favorite team with HIS name on it, unless you share the same name with a star player

    2) Men don't go to the movies together

    3) Men shouldn't play golf with women

    What if your girlfriend won't see a movie with a gun in it? Is that acceptable or do I just wait for the DVD?

    Put one seat between you.

    Actually I have to go the movies with other guys all the time because my wife won't watch violent or scary or seriously dramatic movies.

    It is acceptable for you to drive her car. It is not acceptable for her to drive yours.

    You what's BS about that? It's when you have to go see chick flicks like Twilight with them, but they won't go to "your" movies.

    So if one were to see Ed/Jeff/Matt/Mike/Stone/Boom they are not to ask for an autograph? What about a pic?

    Are you getting there from 'The Men's Room'?

    disagree with number 3. i go to the movies with my brothers all the time (the fiance hates movie theaters).....where you run into a law is you cannot sit directly next to the person. has to be a space between you.

    this is almost like the fraud thread...only for real life situations.

    hahaha I know. Actually I stopped going to chick flicks with her altogether when I realized the IOU on her part was never going to pay off.

    Explain this to me please?...I drive my husband's truck all the time. I'm not telling him he's breaking a man law, I love driving his truck.

    A man should never cross his legs, it's just weird.
    If you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to worry about.

    Talking about your fantasy team to people outside of your league is brutal. Why would I give a flying fuck about your fantasy football team? This is quite possibly the lowest form of conversation.

    It's like talking about a poker hand with someone. They don't give a fuck.

    So that's another one. Don't talk about a hand that you got burned on. It's never entertaining.

    Believe in all the white stuff too. Though the white sock is fine as long as it doesn't come above the ankle. No matter what though, I'm going black ankle socks. And I'm totally going against this rule when it comes to pants. Purposely wearing white linen pants to a wedding in October. Purposely.

    ALSO, another one - the term 'Man Law' is gay. Stop using it. Sorry, buddy. You set em up, I knock em down.

    any kind of black sock while wearing sneakers is straight on dork. sneakers always, always, call for nothing higher than the ankle, that's a given.

    just...black socks with sneakers make you look about 30% less athletic than probably are. don't be that guy in gym.
