Absurd Marriage Advice List

107 Clip and mail him a funny car- toon that means something to both of you. 108 Don’t tell dirty stories. 109 Stop being a mama’s girl—don’t let him think he’ll have in-law trouble, even if you know he will! 110 Point out to him that the death rate of single men is twice that of mar- ried men.

A cropped page from a relationship-advice book lists bizarre instructions for women, including mailing a meaningful cartoon, avoiding dirty stories, and warning a man about marriage. The punchline is the absurd claim that single men die at twice the rate of married men, making the passage useful as a reaction to ridiculous or outdated advice.
