Cold winter days got you down?

Many college guys experience withdrawal (no pun intended) during winter break, since all the attractive, young snow bunnies are nowhere to be found. Even those who have no luck getting lucky during the school year can at least take solace in all the eye-candy on campus. Instead of quenching this thirst alone in front of your computer (or, even worse, at your old high school) go abroad.

Something happens to girls when they cross the border.

Good girls become bad; bad girls become worse; and everyone is making sure that they go home with a story. The question about traveling abroad is not if you’re going to get action but, rather, who it’s going to be with. You control your destiny, but follow these pointers. Read More »

Jealousy is a bitch.

You can’t deny that at times your blood starts to boil when you see another guy checking out your beautiful lady. Luckily, you aren’t alone. Jealousy is a natural human emotion. Merriam-Webster likes to define it as “being threatened by and/or hostile toward a rival.”

Acting out on jealousy tendencies is often considered a bad thing. But is it really so terrible to express those feelings? Read More »

We’ve all heard them before: the dreaded pick-up line.

Most often, pick-up lines don’t accomplish what the pick-up liner has set out to achieve, which is getting the pick-up linee into or as close to, a bed, as possible. Sometimes, however, with the right heir of confidence, there is a diamond in the rough, which leads to someone gettin’ lucky.

And, sure, you can use Wikipedia to find out everything you’ve ever wanted to know about Egypt’s Rosetta Stone or an in-depth history of Boy Meets World.

But where do you go when you need to prepare the perfect pick-up line for a Friday night?

Us males are creatures of habit. We are drawn to rituals. Just think back to yesterday (the 4th of July). We drank beer, watched an American win the hot dog eating contest and grilled burgers. We love pretty much anything we can claim as a right of passage. However, there’s one ritual in particular that rates highest on a guy’s list of priorities. Every guy has heard of it, and can’t start a day with out it. That is the ritual of “shit, shower and shave.” a.k.a. “The Triple S.” Its how us guys get ready in the morning. It’s a process based on logic with each step complimenting the next. In fact, I would go so far to call it the natural order. In college bathrooms though we soon discovers that this is not such a secret ritual. It’s been adopted and adhered to by all men for what seems like an eternity. And one thing is absolutely certain… once the ritual is performed it confirms there is no other way. Read More »

Turn your boring tap-water a nice shade of neon blue! Why? Um � well, maybe so you can see it in the dark or just stare at it while hopped up on LSD. Conservationists, take note: The Faucet Light goes on and off with the water, so it�s not like you�re being completely wasteful. ($19, faucetlight.com)

Everything was going great with that blonde in Sociology. You thought you were definitely in when you started joking around with her on the first day of class about the plural of the word syllabus: 'Is it syllabi or syllabuseseseses?'

That's air-tight.

Things progressed along nicely for the next few weeks. She opened up to you about how her dog was killed in a freak badmitton accident. Another senseless death dealt by the shuttle cock. You told her about your fear of snakes. 'It's not so much that they bite, but that they move without legs.' And then right when you were sure she was into you, WAM!, she extends an invitation to girls' night ('You know, we'll just have some sangria, throw in The Notebook and have a good cry'). Next, she asks you to hook her up with your buddy. Way to go, bro: You've ended up in The Friend Zone.

So, where did you go wrong? How do you end up watching Sex in the City instead of having some? How did you go from trying to get in her pants to helping her shop for pants? It may have been a few simple mistakes that sent you to platonic hell.

In order to avoid The Friend Zone, you have to make it apparent that you are interested in her. It can be as simple as just a little middle-school flirting. Drop a few sexual innuendos without sounding like Uncle Jesse on a drinking binge. Invite her to a social event. And don't just meet her there (friends meet places); take her there. Throw in a strategically placed 'innocent' skin-to-skin contact (that doesn't mean play the motorboats), and she will get the hint.

One of the most important things to remember is not to wait too long to make a move. After the first couple of opportunities pass without an attempt, girls will start to push you to the friend zone. Generally, if you blow it twice, you may not get a third chance. So take some initiative and go in for a kiss relatively early. If she has been laughing with you, and you don't look like Dildo Baggins, chances are she will not turn you down. And if she does, you were going to end up in the friend zone, anyway. The only difference is, now that zone is a little awkward. Still, you have nothing to lose.

It boils down to letting the girl know where you stand, either by saying it or showing it. A little affection goes a long way in this situation, so get your flirt on. If you don't, you'll end up at home in the fetal position sobbing to 'endless love' while she is out on a date with that guy who always yells 'COLLEGE!' Yeah, that's right: You lost out to that guy.

You love your girlfriend: her smile, her quirks ' her insanity. But then there are her friends: Loving them just isn't quite as easy because they can't stand you. All is not lost. You can still win them over and get in with them for good.

Spend time with them. Go out to the bar with her girls, and you can chat them up while keeping your girlfriend happy. You'll score tons of points with them if you ask about what's going on in their lives ' like that impossible anatomy class or where each of them grew up.

Don't let any macho tendencies surface when you're out with that many girls. Show them that you're a good guy by being a gentleman and showing your girl some affection. If they see you making sweet gestures, they'll want her to be with you.

Still can't quite warm up to them? Be overly nice without being appearing superficial. Make them question why they don't like you in the first place. If you did actually do something to offend one or all of them, suck it up and apologize. Even if this requires a maturity you don't have, your girlfriend will appreciate you even more if you can do just say, 'I'm sorry.'

Asking you girlfriend to play defense may help, too. If she can explain to them (successfully) that you're a good guy, they may just start liking you.

But what if you don't like her friends, not the other way around? Avoid confrontation. If you do see them, don't be rude and definitely don't insult them. Most important of all, don't mention your disdain for them to your girlfriend.

If nothing works, it's not the end of the world. Just explain the situation to your girlfriend. If you say you'll be nice when you see them, she'll appreciate the gesture, but she probably won't invite you when she goes out with them, anyway. Lucky you.

It is believed that the first attempt at girlfriend thievery occurred about a half an hour after the first cave man clubbed the first cave woman on the head and dragged her into, well, a cave. Apparently, the second caveman played the sensitivity card and convinced the cave woman she could do better. Then, he clubbed her.

Stealing a man's girlfriend is despicable, disgusting and downright wrong. Unless she's hot, then it's cool. But the truth is, carrying out the deed is actually an art. It is incredibly risky and hard to master, especially if the guy is big and you are slow. But if you follow a few simple rules, you'll be the one listening to her mundane daily anecdotes and be the new target for her insecurities, while Johnny Boyfriend is back to partying with his boys and having hot anonymous sex (are you sure you've thought this through?).

There are two essential rules that you must follow to be successful in your endeavor: First, no one can know what you are doing. And, second, you have to avoid the friend zone at all costs. You don't want to end up her 'Desperate House Wives Buddy,' do you?

The first rule can be tricky, because you want to make her realize the flaws in her relationship without pointing them out yourself. Once you have established trust, start by taking a genuine interest in her day-to-day interaction with her boyfriend. Small problems one day might indicate deeper issues in their relationship. When she tells you that he got mad at her for wearing something slinky, don't say 'What a handjob. If we were together, you could dress like a whore whenever you want!' Instead, say something like: 'I don't agree with the way he handled the situation, but I understand why he would be insecure about your wearing something that made you look so hot.'

Here you have done a few things: You have agreed with her, you have complimented her and you have given the boyfriend the benefit of the doubt, which goes a long way as far as your credibility is concerned.

Once you have figured out what bothers her about their relationship, become everything her boyfriend is not. If he is insecure, act confident. If he is insensitive, cry during Homeward Bound. If he has a temper, be laid back in every situation. The point is to embody the perfect boyfriend for her. In other words, act like a cheese dick. And, while your buddies may rip on you, keep in mind that the result will be your doing Pants-less Pilates with your new lady. So screw those jealous D-bags.

As far as staying out of the friend zone, just remember to flirt with her as much as possible without looking like a nine-year-old with a crush on his babysitter. Wear the crap she likes, do the crap she wants to do and, eventually, she'll drop that man-gina and you'll have scum-bagged yourself a new girlfriend. Congratulations, buddy.

There's a little known, rare occurrence known as breaking one's penis. You're probably grabbing your crotch right now just thinking about it. Luckily, it's nearly impossible to do.

But just in case this one day happens to you, let's learn how the horrid pain occurs, shall we?

While there are no actual bones in the penis, there are two chambers of spongy tissue running along the inside called the corpova cavernosa (let's just refer to it as C.C.). An erection occurs when the muscles relax, causing blood to flow to the C.C. Then more technical stuff involving blood flow not escaping. But, all in all, this jargon basically means your penis is hard.

If your penis only consists of flesh and blood, how can it break?

Funny you should ask. If you thrust something that hard against something even harder, say a pubic bone or a headboard due to a poor miscalculation, the thick membrane around your C.C. can tear. You may hear a sound similar to a crack while quickly losing your erection. Your now extraordinarily painful and bruised penis may also bend to one side. Back to holding your crotch again?

If this ever occurs to you, get to a damn hospital. Upon immediate evaluation, surgery (yay, doctors!) can help you have erections once again as well as prevent possible permanent damage. Such aid may even put your penis back into its correct shape.

What have we learned from this makeshift anatomy lesson? Breaking your penis is extremely hard to do. Just don't thrust ridiculously hard, and all will be well.

Hot girl? Awesome. Hot girl who doesn't want a relationship? Even more awesome.

Sounds impossible, but if you draw (quite) a few lines, you can have a casual relationship that will hopefully go nowhere.

From the beginning, make sure you avoid all serious topics because opening up only leads to hugging and feelings. Make sure to always remind her of how busy you are with school, football, the Environmental Society and keeping up with politics. The busier you are means staying over is rare, yet you're keeping her interested and letting her know that a relationship would be impossible.

Make sure when you do meet, that you only hang out at casual places, like a diner. A romantic bistro isn't exactly the signal you're trying to send. Set up simple plans after these semi-dates so you don't hit the stage of implied weekend plans. Never leave these plans open-ended, either.

Once you're in the causal relationship, keep your defense up. Don't fall into patterns, no matter how comfortable they may be, because hanging out with her every Tuesday after dinner is not exactly laid-back. Inconsistent communication and spur-of-the-moment plans are key.

Continue to have simple topics of conversation while not being indifferent towards her. Be interesting but not revealing, because getting close to her would just be ugly. So if she brings up her ex, move on to a better topic like Will Ferrel. When you talk, always remind her of just how causal your relationship is with phrases, i.e.: 'I have no idea what I'm doing this weekend.' And, most important, keep both her friends and yours away from anything you do. She'll be less clingy if she doesn't meet your friends, and you won't need any approval from hers.

If you never have a serious conversation and never meet anyone she's ever known, your relationship will remain casual.

L-O-V-E. Hands down, the scariest four-letter word in the English language. Scratch that ' THE scariest word in the English language. Also, the scariest word in the Spanish language. Did you really think it was a coincidence that amor is also four-letters?

Yet your girlfriend dropped this scary, scary bomb on you. You're not feeling quite the same way, but you're clearly feeling her, so what can you do? Honesty might work, but you're also looking to hold onto this relationship. Try one of these, and let us know if you're out on the market again:

Lighten up
If she's already said it, don't even try to crack a joke. But if you can prevent the words from being uttered, make her laugh. She'll probably know you're full of it, but isn't this worth a shot?

Cry
Turn on the tears. You must seriously not want to say these words if you're actually crying in front of her. Besides, she may never say the word again ' at least, not before you do.

Lay One on Her
So, you didn't actually say I love you. A kiss is cute! She'll understand you don't want to say those words, and you may even get a quickie out of it. Go you.

Blame That Other Girl
Just tell her you've been hurt by someone else, and you can't bring yourself to say 'I love you' so soon again. She may try to convince you she's different, but that doesn't mean you have to utter another word.

Call Her Out
If it's way too early in the relationship, tell her! She probably knows it, and you definitely know it. This will also show her that you 'or anyone else with testosterone ' do not take such a phrase lightly.

Eventually, the words will be uttered, but tell her how you feel right now. Don't you hate how that honesty thing works every time?
