If Men Really Ruled The World (from November 1998 issue of Maxim magazine) -Any fake phone number a girl gave you would automatically forward your call to her real number. -Nodding and looking at your watch would be deemed an acceptable response to "I love you." -Hallmark would make "Sorry, what was your name again?" cards. -When your girlfriend really needed to talk to you during the game, she'd appear in a little box in the corner of the screen during a time-out. -Breaking up would be a lot easier. A smack to the ass and a "Nice hustle, you'll get 'em next time" would pretty much do it. -Birth control would come in ale or lager. -You'd be expected to fill your resume with gag names of people you'd worked for, like "Heywood J'Blowme." -Each year, your raise would be pegged to the fortunes of the NFL team of your choice. -The funniest guy in the office would get to be CEO. -"Sorry I'm late, but I got really wasted last night" would be an acceptable excuse for tardiness. -At the end of the workday, a whistle would blow and you'd jump out your window and slide down the tail of a brontosaurus and right into your car like Fred Flintstone. -It'd be considered harmless fun to gather 30 friends, put on horned helmets, and go pillage a nearby town. -Lifeguards could remove citizens from beaches for violating the "public ugliness" ordinance. -Tanks would be far easier to rent. -Garbage would take itself out. -Instead of beer belly, you'd get "beer biceps." -Instead of an expensive engagement ring, you could present your wife-to-be with a giant foam hand that said, "You're #1!" -Valentine's Day would be moved to February 29th so it would only occur in leap years. -On Groundhog Day, if you saw your shadow, you'd get the day off to go drinking. Mother's Day, too. -St. Patrick's Day, however, would remain exactly the same. But it would be celebrated every month. -Cops would be broadcast live, and you could phone in advice to the pursuing cops. Or to the crooks. -Two words: Ally McNaked. -Regis and Kathie Lee would be chained to a cement mixer and pushed off the Golden Gate Bridge for the most lucrative pay-per-view event in world history. -The victors in any athletic competition would get to kill and eat the losers. -The only show opposite Monday Night Football would be Monday Night Football from a Different Camera Angle. -It would be perfectly legal to steal a sports car, as long as you returned it the following day with a full tank of gas. -Every man would get four real Get Out of Jail Free cards per year. -When a cop gave you a ticket, every smart-aleck answer you responded with would actually reduce your fine. As in: Cop: "You know how fast you were going?" You: "All I know is, I was spilling my beer all over the place." Cop: "Nice one. That's $10 off." -Faucets would run "Hot," "Cold," and "100 proof." -The Statue of Liberty would get a bright red, 40-foot thong. -People would never talk about how fresh they felt. -Daisy Duke shorts would never again go out of style. -Telephones would automatically cut off after 30 seconds of conversation.
