What a jerk!!

Some people just know how to hit ya.

I was at my brother's house doing some work in his back yard this weekend, and it was hot, so I took of my shirt to cool off a bit. My jerk of a brother said to me, "Hey D, you've got more hair on your back than on the top of your head".

So I told him, "Well, at least when I look down, I can still see my feet, lol."

Some people!

Day 27 today and I'm tired of waiting!! I want to say day 30, but I have to wait a couple more days, lol.

Hope all of you are well and staying sober!!

That sounds just like my brother....the only difference is my brother would have offered me a beer to boot then called me a sissy when I refused!!!! Then he would have found a way to insult my wife!:O (Seriously)

Body hair is very manly. In some countrys it's a sign of how manly you are. Tell your brother to bugger off.

Hard to steer clear from a brother who I also consider one of my closest friends. We still golf together and surf together and watch football every Sunday. But I have learned how to enjoy his company...even when I don't. I realized a long time ago that although I can't cut him out of my life, I can control how I let him affect me. He was my best drinking buddy for a long time, and every three months or so we would get completely plastered together and end up in some sort of fight...but we always seem to have short memories because in the end we are brothers.

I still love him, I just don't let him affect me or my decisions any more....and funny that now I don't drink, we don't fight. Strange how that works.

My sister and I zing each other at every chance we get, but we also love and support each other as well. Just one of those sibling quirks! I hope he is supportive of your efforts in recovery!

I only recently found out that men want to get rid of their hairs -I thought that was just a girlie thing.
Many women really like bear like men! (now i'm not going to commit myself personally on this on an international site of course!!!)


Glad to hear you're keeping sober .
