Things Men Should Not Do Together

So, this week I found myself doing some things with my associate pastor, Jason, that I wasn't entirely comfortable with. It all started when we went together to buy decor for our stage setup. First, I found myself standing in line at Walmart buying four dozen candles, fabric, and a nice rug with another man. Next, we somehow ended up at Pier One looking at furniture together. Afterwards, we both felt dirty and headed to Lowe's to try and redeem ourselves.

Some guys complain when their wives send them to the store to buy feminine items, but at least when you do that everyone knows you are going back home to a woman. Standing in a store with another man asking him which tablecloth will go better with the rug just doesn't look right. It made us wish we had brought one of the girls with us.

Here are some other things I don't think guys should shop for alone with each other:

1. Curtains or any other window coverings with the possible exception of rolling steel shutters.
2. Makeup
3. Baby clothes
4. Lampshades (the lamps themselves are okay)
5. Justin Timberlake CDs (not that anyone should, alone or not)
6. Christmas cards
7. Any movie with a title like, A Walk to Remember in a Bed of Steel Green Magnolias. (Why do chick movies always have long names while guy movies have names like Die Hard and Braveheart?)
8. Sheets, quilts, pillows, or anything that goes on a bed unless it has a football team logo on it.
9. Poodles
10. House plants ( outside plants are fine)
11. Indian Jewelry
12. Leather pants
13. Body wash unless purchased with at least twelve other items
14. Paintings of clowns ( just image two guys buying one)
15. Back massagers
16. Tickets to magic shows
17. Wicker chairs
18. Any type of figurines with the exception of cars
19. Pourri
20. Anything with flowers on it
