Stop making stupid Sniglets.

**RANT WARNING**

Dear planet Earth,

Making new words by adding "Man" or "Bro" to the front stopped being funny the 3rd time someone did it for the past 5 or so years *. Seriously. It's unfunny and lazy as hell. Some of these make sense because there is no other way to describe them. "Manhands" is find because it's a woman with manly hands and can sometimes be a horror that needs it's own name. A lot of this stuff falls into the category of cop-out and dirt-grade random dumb crap. "Mantyhose!" No, it's pantyhose that a man is wearing for some reason. "It's a Manpurse!" No, it's either a purse or a bag that a man is carrying. "It's a Bromance!" No, it's a romance, a "brother from another mother" or a friendship that can't be understood by a society that has devalued the word "friend" like every other word in the English language so they made a new dumb-ass word for something that already exists. Example: there's an ad on Facebook for eBay that says, "Make Your Friends Jealous" at the top. Are you really someone's friend if you want to make them jealous? If you do, you're probably not a good friend and probably the kind of person that needs words like Bromance, Manpurse, Mantihose and Manta Claus. Manta Claus? Yes, it's exactly the same as Santa Claus but it's a man, which Santa Claus is already, but I thought it'd be funny if I put Man in the front just because Man and San rhyme. Oh, wait, that's not funny as much as it's completely stupid and unneccessary. If I buy a woman or girl a T-shirt, it's not a She-irt, it's a shirt and if she's taking a crap while wearing it, she's not taking a She-it. Enough of this crap.

Okay, I have one more before I'm done. It's a word said to people other than me who keep coming up with these words: Manyouneedtoshutthefuckup. It's just as unfunny as the rest while being completely true to the situation.

* this rule was added to protect the term "Manwich" for a Manwich is truly a meal.
