MOM-SPEAK

Our moms. We love 'em ... but sometimes they drive us bonkers!

Here are 5 annoying comments moms makes ... and what they really mean:

1. "Where did you buy that shirt?" -- Being vague is mom's way of softening the blow. She probably thinks your top is unflattering and that reflects poorly on her. Thank her, but suggest you've got to express your own style.

2. "Are you really that hungry?" -- Yep, you got it: She thinks that doughnut is making you fat. She probably didn't mean to let this comment slip out, so know that she has your well-being in mind.

3. "It's nothing. I don't want to bother you." -- A long time ago, your mom got used to putting her needs after yours. Coax it out of her. She might not be comfy, but you'll gain her trust when you pick up on her hinting.

4. "Marsha's daughter got into grad school." -- Your mom hopes to inspire, and yes, have something to brag about, so give her updates about your own accomplishments.

5. "He's fun, but do you ever see him settling down?" -- Mom is saying what your friends are probably not. Um, yes, his abs are nice but he's not exactly husband material, right? You would probably agree with your pals, so try, as much as it pains you, to agree with (or at least listen to) your mom.

ACCEPTABLE FIRST DATE LIES

OK, we know that honesty is the foundation of a good relationship, but is it OK to fib a little bit before you really get to know each other? Or, does it just create more problems down the road?

Here are some lies that could be OK ...

• "I noticed you when I walked in." OK, so maybe in a crowded room, you noticed more than just one person ... but it's flattering.

• "My family, life, job -- all good." So, maybe you don't get along with your dad, are job hunting and mostly miserable right now ... but first dates aren't really the place to complain.

• "I'm curious about that movie, too." OK, so maybe you never even thought about that movie until your date brought it up. But you like your date. You want to see them again. So no harm in pretending.

• "It was nice meeting you." Just because your date was a dud and you have no desire to ever see them again (EVER), doesn't mean you can't go out on a nice note. Be courteous. And then say goodbye.

THE EIGHT STAGES OF BEER DRINKING

How was your weekend? A better question might be, how are you this morning?

If you really took things to the hilt over the weekend, you might have experienced what Guyism.com calls the "Eight Stages of Beer Drinking," which include:

1. Sober -- No booze in your system means all your motor and social skills are completely intact. Bravo!

2. Buzzed (aka "pretty good") -- You feel like you are starting to float a little bit and you just feel wonderful. One more drink and things start to get messy.

3. Really Buzzed (aka "tipsy" or "getting there") -- You start knocking things over. You bump into people and they spill beer on themselves.

4. Drunk (aka "plenty boozed") -- You've had enough, but the drunk voice in your head is telling you that you should keep drinking more anyway. Things such as making it to the bathroom without knocking a magazine off the coffee table become extremely difficult.

5. Really Drunk (aka "Schknockered" or "don't tell him we hid the beer") -- You lose complete control of the volume of your voice and start saying -- or yelling -- some crazy stuff.

6. Blitzed (aka "done" or "the guy we quit serving an hour ago") -- People start to yell at you -- or want to fight you. You have jumped the shark.

7. Blackout Drunk (aka "somebody else's problem" or "Inmate: 218567") -- Everything you do now you will regret tomorrow. You should be in bed or near bed at this point unless you are getting sick in the bathroom.

8. Hospital Drunk -- Congratulations! You've won a free stomach pumping and thousands of dollars in medical bills.
