    It’s not that women below a 4 aren’t crazy, it’s just that if they are, it’s not worth dating them! The Crazy/Hot chart shows how crazy they can be, and still get away with it. A 9 can act crazy as hell! And guys just ignore it, because she’s hot! But if she was a 4, he’d send her packing.

    Truth and political correctness are diametrically opposed.

    So true, I’ve known many of my friends have lost their parents to Alzheimer’s, and personally I cannot imagine a worst fate.

    I did go out for several years with a redhead who I would rate as only a '2' crazy. And she was hot. Never been out with a stripper or a Tiffany though. I do know a Tiffany and she does seem like she could be a bit crazy if you were in a relationship with her. Don't know any strippers though, mores the pity.

    Anita was diagnosed with lupus about 25 years ago, but the symptoms all seem to be physical rather than mental - some days she seems absolutely fine, some days she can barely walk but I think the huge variety of meds helps a lot (sleeping pills for night-time to help her body "shut down" and repair itself, steroids to help with repair (although a side effect is that it pretty much doubles the weight gain possible from a given amount). A whole cocktail of other drugs too.

    As a result of the lupus, as well as some other stuff, she cannot hold down a job, so has various benefits like a motability allowance, and something called a P.I.P., whatever that is.

    I don't know whether her lupus (or it's treatment) has any effect on her mentally as I didn't know her pre-lupus so I have no point of reference. She is a very strong woman and takes this stuff in her stride. She's a good 'un and I love her to bits

    I think it's hilarious that blokes who obsess over boxes and wires, spending ££££s to get them 'right' regard women as 'crazy'.

    Or, as Steely Dan put it: 'Worldy-wise, I realise/That everybody's crazy'.

    There's your harmless crazy and then there's your bunny boilers.


    Steely Dan were right though, but then they were always right. About everything.

    Yes but said blokes are really just a harmless bunch, probably better described as "eccentric", not the "Oh my God, just keep out of her way till she calms down" kind of crazy.

    I think Macca may have found the exception with his redhead - my first girlfriend was a redhead and she was mental mental chicken oriental, and if I saw her now, 56 years later, I'd probably cross the road to avoid her.

    Her name was Sheila, and there was a song by Tyrannosaurus Rex called "Elemental Child" and I amended it to "Sheila Mental Child". She hated that.

    Ha! You may have missed some of the earlier inter-forum warfare, when supposedly 'harmless eccentrics' exchanged death threats over the all-important issue of whether cable A was better than cable B. (Though to be fair, I don't think any actual violence ensued, and if it had, it'd probably only have amounted to handbags at dawn).
