We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore, it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ, the following chain of events is put into motion.
Routine...
(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the
vegetables, and makes the dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking,
places it on a tray along with the necessary
cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to
to the man who is lounging beside the
grill, beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the
compulsory three-meter exclusion zone
where the exuberance of testosterone and
other manly bonding activities can take
place without the interference of the
woman.
Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE
GRILL.
More routine....
(6) The woman goes inside to organize the
plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that
the meat is looking great. He thanks her
and asks if she will bring another beer
while he flips the meat.
Important again:
(8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE
GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine...
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad,
bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and
brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table
and washes the dishes.
And most important of all:
(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and
THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
(12) The man asks the woman how she
enjoyed 'her night off,' and, upon seeing
her annoyed reaction, concludes that
there's just no pleasing some women.
