I have reason to believe that the Earth is being invaded by body-snatching aliens, and that they've already gained a strong foothold. We have to fight back before it's too late. Fortunately, the invaders, by their very nature, don't stand up well to direct confrontation.
My co-worker Maha is a single mother with an eight-year-old son. Her son is involved in sports, mainly hockey, and he's something of a troublemaker. So recently, the coach asked Maha if she could come to the practices to keep an eye on him. Nothing too unusual so far.
Maha doesn't have a car, so she arranged to get a ride with the father of another kid on the team. Little did she know, she was getting into the car with a body-snatcher. Everything was fine for a little while, until one day he announced that he couldn't drive her anymore, because it upset his wife.
"Well that's stupid!" I said, unable to contain myself.
Yes, apparently it made his wife nervous for him to be in a car with, gasp, a SINGLE WOMAN! Now, I'm no expert in female psychology, so maybe that's perfectly normal. But why the hell did this man acquiesce to her irrational demands? That's class A wussbag behaviour. No self-respecting man would ever behave in this manner, so I can only conclude that he is not a man at all, but an invader from a planet of wusses.
This was not an isolated incident. Maha went on to describe several other situations in which she had spent time with men in the absence of their wives, mainly so that her kid could play with other kids. Now all the men refuse to talk to her, for fear of incurring the wrath of the women.
What is going on here? How widespread is this wussbag phenomenon? We have to fight it, no matter the cost.
Do your part. Spread the word.
