september  said about 5 years ago  or at  11:37AM on Tuesday, September 5 2006 in stupidity

my boss just berated me in between barking orders for a full minute and i sat there and took it while nodding my head furiously (from side to side, not up and down. i think i said 'yes...yes...yes' about 20 times too.

are you anyone's yes man? is that sentence sexist? i suppose it is.

i am a few people's yes but only if it suits me woman as well.

i could say that i'm my wife's yes man, but that would imply a power imbalance in our relationship, which, of course, does not exist. obviously i play an equal part in all decisions and any input i give is provided out of the desire to contribute, rather than the desire not to get in big trouble for doing or saying the wrong thing. i'm definitely not scared of doing that.

Okay - How can HaroldHolt read and reply to something that was said 2months ago by a banned user?

I don't get it

i might undickhead him...


yourlover  said about 5 years ago:

daryl's a self-confessed cunt, you were right to dickhead him.


Benji  said about 5 years ago:

I never got it when people say they 'nodded' but it was from side to side. Surely thats a shake of the head?


KevinArnold  said about 5 years ago:

I'm a masssive yes man.

I'm the "bitch" at work and have been referred to as such.


Benji  said about 5 years ago:

Unless you meant "side to side" as in an Indian head gesture, in which case that would be the right way to condescendingly give a "yes" to an overbearing boss.


september  said about 5 years ago:

Benji said 3 minutes ago I never got it when people say they 'nodded' but it was from side to side. Surely thats a shake of the head?


i nodded up and down, benji. not side to side as i mentioned. it was an honest mistake. i was confused, probably from the nodding and the lecture.
