what is the way to ur heart?

You know, some guys just got it made: good looks, bloody rich, incredible bodies, nice hair, smart as hell, blah blah. But i discovered one thing; yes, i've got it all figured out. The one thing that a guy must have, the ESSENTIAL thing that they need to survive in this dog-eat-dog, every man for himself world of skirt chasing: A sense of humor. Funny. Mr. Joker.

So guys, listen up. I'm definitely right this time round. Nothing makes a girl happier than to be able to say, "he makes me laugh." no no, girls don't dream about saying "he bought me a car (or a ship, in some Navy SMS guy context)", cos if they want a car they would go work and buy it themselves (ahh the modern feministic world... ). They also don't dream about saying "my guy has such a nice body", cos really, what good is something if they can't show it off? (i.e. Diamonds, Roses, Shoes... what are the chances of you walking naked with her on Orchard Road, or in my case, Main Street??) They also don't really rank intelligence too highly too; if they want intellectual stimulus, they'll go read TIME or NEWSWEEK or anything (except Straits Times, those money grabbing a**holes). If they want someone to talk to, all girls will go to their gay male friend that they all seem to have. Let's face it, straight guys are BAH (Boring As Hell).

Why do girls want funny guys, you may ask. Simple. If they bring you to their family reunion, and you're able to make all the aunties and uncles go ga-ga over you, while at the same time playing with all the cousins and grandcousins such that the kids love you to death, SHE'll be the star of the show! No, not you. You'll just have to resort to being SECOND best that night (and basically, for the rest of your time together with her). If you go watch a boring movie with her, or a boring musical, she'll love you to death if you can crack a witty remark or tease about the bald guy sitting in front of you. Ladies, doubt my claim about funny guys being hot? CASE IN POINT: you may find Brat Pitt really hot, but deep down inside (maybe really deep deep deep deep down) you really want to bring Russell Peters home instead right? Hah. I sense that um-chio spreading across your lips.

Robin Williams, in Mrs Doubtfire, stole my line. I was watching the telly some time back, and caught Mr. Williams say "the way to a woman's heart is laughter". Yep, not food, not money, not even looks. Laughter. So I'm well substantiated on this point. =)

So guys, do something right now! If there's this cute girl you'd always wanted to have a date with, go! Maybe the classmate that you never have had the guts to talk to., or the cute professor you have for your Engineering lecture (a phenomenon that is very very rare, it has to be said, so all the more you have to cherish your opportunity). Go! Go be Mr. Funny! And ladies, see now that you know that we know what your weakness is, don't be so harsh on a guy if he tries a lame pick-up line or joke on you. Not every guy has humor, but they all can't be faulted for trying. And yep, if there's this funny guy whom you think has a really funny blog, don't hesitate to go talk to him yah? Funny is all he has =)
