Comments Every time you update something on the page, I have another pang of empathy. I am not suggesting thay my girlfriend is in the same league as Margret, good lord no, but I know people that have done or are doing exactly what Margret does... I know people who have turned thier one-bed flats into a reasonable facsimile of Kew Gardens (in variety and population). I know people who have cooked a frozen pizza without removing the cellophane wrap first. I even know people who are aware of logic, but really know what it has to do with them, a bit like a fish having heard about bicycles, but really not getting it. And those people? They think that they are the balanced ones.... my deepest sympathy, condolences and annoyance at your having found a life so interesting as to be worthy of a book. I honestly hope you'll be engaged in your bitter struggle for years to come, and that you'll continue being happy doing it.

Comments I'm reading your book currently, I was about to say I'm going through mixed emotions while doing so till I read someone's comment. "I hope someday I will be loved as much as you love your Margret. Anyone who thinks you don't is either blind, stupid, has absolutely NO sense of humour, cannot read, is deliberately not "getting it," or any combination thereof"
Now I know I'm not "getting it". So I'm looking for a beginners' version of your book.

Comments I have read most of this (wasn't alowed to read more) but I have read the part where you wrote that strangers say " you think your girfriend..." And I think I have quite the same gotten the same kind of relationship. Yes I do. We argue about everything that is noting but my girlfrind is not that good at it so it always end with her screaming at me and I have to tell her "Ofcourse darling you are right i am nothing, an amoeba has more right to live than I" And then it is final. Still we have more good times than not and I just consider theese arguments as a spicy addon to dull times.

Thanks for the refuge, it helps.

Comments Mil- just thought I would take a moment away from the endless consensual homosexual sex here to say thanks for making me laugh until I cried on several occasions. I recently visited the UK for the first time and was overwhelmed by the friendliness of the natives and humbled by the generations of history in plain view at every turn. Then I left Edinburgh for London, where there are actually no natives and a lot of the history (architecturally speaking) has been "updated." Not that I was expecting to meet the typical London crowd there, but I went to the Tower and out of our 75-strong tour group there were 1 Briton and 1 Aussie to break up the American monotony. Fortunately I stayed with a local (well, temporary transplant) so I actually got to experience the real culture in the now and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and would love to come back. It brought a smile to my face to see an ad for your book on the Tube. My friends and I also got a huge kick out of the "Texas Embassy," which had an interesting and milder, though still quite tasty version of our food (and excellent margaritas, actually). Kind of fun to see ourselves through English eyes... Anyhow, enough about my wanderings, cheers to your site, congrats on the book.
-E

P.S.: We were also struck, although not unexpectedly, by the diminutive size of your vehicles. Having rumbled around Houston in a raucously loud 7.4 liter pickup truck full to the brim with awestruck Scotsmen and Frogs, and being not quite so ignorant of world affairs that I wouldn't know that for various reasons (parking, fuel costs, etc.), your vehicles are smaller, I was still amazed to find that an Audi TT or Mazda Miata is quite a reasonably sized conveyance. That got me thinking on the subject, and I think that I've hit upon one of the keys to the misunderstandings between the U.S. and the UK. Namely, Britons think that it's criminal that we would so lavishly mow through natural resources and countryside because there are so little of both over there, while we think that it's criminal that you would pay so much for your tiny cars and small living spaces because we have so much space and natural resources and (these days) not so much money...

Comments ciao Mil,
I am Italian, from Rome (so please, now you should repent in advance for all the bad comments you are going to think about my english... :)
Joel is American, living in Chicago right now.
We met in a chatroom, it seems to be trendy lately, and we are going to meet each other, in real life and for the first time, in less than two weeks. He is coming to Rome to spend an entire month with me... hopefully with me.
So you can imagine that our relationship, for now, is based only on written and hardly -for me- spoken words. But I am not going to complain about that... I would thank god if everything went as good as when we JUST talk.
But no! He DOES HAVE to SING!!!
Daily conversation (more than once a day, of course):
joel: "fede, would you like to enable voice on the instant messenger?"
fede (a big smile on her face): "oh yes! sure! of course!" (already imagining him telling her how much he loves her and crappy stuff like that...)
then, voice is on...
and suddenly, the Music of the Devil breaks into my ears, and Joel singing loud over it! and I DO HAVE to listen, cause he is doing that for ME, and cause he sounds so happy, my baby...
it follows: explanation about the song and the singer, eventually sent of the song, and the always present comment: "fede, THIS is one of my favorites, I will sing it for you if you like" (as if i had the chance to say no...)
note: it may happen that he plays and sing the SAME song for days, many times in the same day... and EACH and EVERY time, he explains that, he sends me the song etc...
(hey hey!wait!!! believe me... he just started doing that RIGHT NOW, no kidding... the song is one by Usher, the story is the same, and he is asking me what I am doing... hehe, he will know in a few minutes!)
anyway, luckily every a few hours, his neighbour calls the cops, the cops go over Joel's house and tell him "to shut that stuff up" (sorry for using this space for personal things, but I have to publicly thank the neighbour).
That is, every day, with a diabolic perseverance. And I still haven't met him in real life... if this is the premise, well i guess it's going to be funny!
I will tell you more on:

Comments Hi Mil,
I apologize for taking so long to find your site.
I apologize for not warning people not to ship via UPS - (they broke my crockery, not the Post).
I apologize for not warning all other single women not to date my evil-ex (they had to learn the hard way like I did).
I don't apologize for being from California, can't help where I was born & bred.

I'm perplexed by your aversion to horse-faced women. But I suppose equine features suit the horses themselves better.

The worst bathrooms I've ever been in were:
1) high in the mountains in Japan - after a trip that took many hours on various trains... we made the mistake of taking advantage of the beers sold in vending machines at the stations. Upon arrival at our destination, the only loo had such toxic fumes wafting about that it was hard to decide whether we'd make it out again without passing out in the john... needless to say I lived to tell the tale.
2) the bathroom at Hussong's cantina in Ensenada, Mexico. Too many drunk American college kids (me included) did the poor room in.

The best bathrooms I've ever been in:
1) Stefano's bachelor pad in the Tuscany countryside. Beautiful tile from floor to ceiling.
2) Eva's castle home in LA, down a steep flight of stairs, walls all a deep purple
3) Vala's deep ocean themed WC, again down a flight of stairs, walls painted as if you are under water, beautiful blue-green and slightly textured like lapping little waves

I'll go searching for your book, put more money in your pocket so you can have time to keep up the site once again. I enjoy your ramblings, can relate to both of your sides.
Best regards,
Ariane

Comments Mr Millington... I first read your column in the Weekend Grauniad and thought it mildly amusing...then I read this and laughed until my nostrils did the snot-balloon thing...(a most seductive look)
However, I wish to lodge a formal complaint...I think your anti-american comments are somewhat unfounded. With messages such as "I think that if you can't get along with your girlfriend then you shouldn't be with her, she doesn't deserve you... " elsewhere on your guestbook, this is uncalled for. How can one possibly attack a people so fuckwittedly clueless? Such brain-dead defencelessness can't be punished... Why! it would be like kicking a puppy!
On the contrary - a nation which provides so much mirth for the rest of us should be encouraged..
So... more obese, ignorant buffoons in oversized shorts and "nuke Iran" T-Shirts please.
Perhaps you should introduce an award for the reader who fails to comprehend in the most linear way with extra marks for the most terrifying display of stupidity.
As for yourself sir, you are a scoundrel, a blackguard and a most witty individual with thoroughly ridiculous hair.
Your analysis is a beacon for those lost in the darkness of a relationship with a woman who is fantastic whilst at the same time being, in essence, unfathomably mental.

Comments Excellent stuff. On the subject of irrational argument, Americans seem to have been mentioned more than once. Many might at first think this unfair. Of course, from your guestbook comments I know you love Americans etc so this is clearly not the forum ... but for those defenders of California .. I once met a man in a bar (no its not one of those stories) about 50 miles North of San Fran (nope, really it isn't) and after establishing that England was indeed in Europe (Yoooropp), then proceeded to ask me 'What language do you speak in England?' ... Bless 'em.

Then again, I once met a 30 year old man in a bar in Salcombe, Devon in the early '90's who had never heard of Marilyn Munroe .. Perhaps I should stop drinking - or stop speaking to strange men in bars. PS I started reading the FAQ's but my attention span ran out and hasn't been seen since.

Comments I have now wasted a perfectly good hour and a half reading your drivel... it's a fantastic way to blow time if you didn't know... laughing to the point of tears.
It's really too bad your collective reader/fan/stalker base in the US can't bribe/convince/threaten you enough to move here... we really could use another person with a sense of humor here!
Mil, I hope you two stay together... the laughs have got to be worth the price of admission anyway.

Comments Very, very, very hilarious page. But why aren't you and your girlfriend married? Or why don't you break up if you fight so much? As an American, I must demand that my every need and want be met without complaint, mistake, or error. As such, I believe everyone's relationships should be the same. I saw it on Dr. Phil's show.

All I can say, in all honesty, is THANK GOD you aren't in the US, explaining your relationship status to everyone.

Oh. And with the exception of Jerry Falwell, the sodomy continues...I'm doing my part.

Comments Mil-

You rock! Coming from a professional web-surfer (well, my boss thinks I do other things all day, but what I really get paid to do is sit at my desk and look up random crap on the internet...tee-hee!!) this is by far the funniest and most engaging thing on the internet I have ever see on the web. I actually have to limit myself to only reading it occasionally at work because I go into such peals of laughter that my life force sucking boss becomes nervous and begins stalking to see what I could possibly be finding joy in! Keep up the good work!

I wish both yourself and all involved in the making of it all the very best. Now where do I buy the book, T-shirt, mug, DVD, and small plastic action figures?

Just one small one-uppedness if I may, one previous girlfriend actually pointed out girls in the street to me with the opening line "God look at her!!" to which of course I would say "well what about her", "YOU FANCY HER DON'T YOU?". I discovered that "phoaar yea" was not a viable option.

cheers, keep it coming.

Comments I love your web page. Hilarious stuff. Although, I have to say something in defense of Californians (me being one). First of all, we're talking about a state larger than the UK and Ireland combined, so to lump us all into the category of crystal-gazing weirdos is unfair. The fact is that California is a state full of hick farmers more than anything else (Los Angeles and California are by no means synonymous). Secondly, this New Age lifestyle you mock is not really Californian at all. Your satirical finger would be more appropriately pointed at places like Sedona, Arizona. And, for the record, I've never owned a crystal or paid serious heed to an astrological forecast in my life, and I had never heard of a Dreamcatcher until that movie came out.

Oh, and about the earthquake thing, they're actually a lot of fun. Like a rollercoaster.

Comments Excellent site.

My wife and I often argue over things that she thought about telling me, but never actually told me. But she then remains convinced that she did and that I've forgot. I know I didn't forget, because I have a good memory, and actually forget things on purpose sometimes. I'm always aware if it is something I've forgotton on purpose, or something she has never told me.

But, I seem to lose the arguements anyway.

cheers and drive on man!

Comments Well Mil,

it would have been great if Barry had told me about the site - i'm sure he's a nice bloke. However i finished reading your book last night and noticed it also had a website - part of me couldn't wait to get into work and take a look at it this morning (how sads that!) so here i am wasting valuable time at work signing your guestbook - great idea!

Just want to say the book was brilliant, brought much laughter to my last few minutes of the day and on one occasion tears when pel knocks himself out on the dean's desk! hilarious!

great job - keep up the good work, look forward to a sequal or your next!

Comments Dear Mil,

I always thought, no one understands women as well as I do since - at least since the last check-up - I am one myself. And let me guess: even though .. or you would say: "precisely because" you studied for years this single schwäbisch specimen, you know women less and less. For tech-freaks something like this is called tangential feed. Or maybe not, who am I to know something about engeneering?!

Since years I am trying to give men on the brink (ready to jump) answers to questions like "What do women have in their purses and what in mostly our all gods name do they do with it?". It doesn't really help them, to know that actually the girl's purse is a black hole, that catapults the little things it holds, like.. let's say its a small bag so it would be something like: the platinum Collection of Stephen Kings Books in 12 Volumes, a box of praline chocolates (also platinum size), 12 different lipsticks in the shades dark red, light red, wildberry red, strawberry red, red apples after they fell from the tree red, red with a hint of brown, red with a hint of darkbrown, red with a hint of reddish lightbrown, red with a hint... well, I see you got the hint..

But you lost the red line, right?
Alright back to the subject: all these things in a womans bermuda triangle get sucked out into the universe, where they destroy a comet, that could have brought the cure for cancer, Aids and Victoria Beckham. So it happens that you sometimes stand in line at the cashier, in front of you a women who can find everything else in her bag - her german shepherddog, her real-size replica of Robbie Williams, her hairdryer with XXL-diffuser - but her billfold. And while the line expands to the border of Timbuctu, someone behind you says "Did you hear this? I think it was a thunder!" That's how it works!

Men don't know that.

Women normally neither - it would just give you another thing to argue about - but I know. And I share.

The female nature doesn't have the same physical laws as men's. For example Mil, you wrote about Margret always driving so fast. Well, you know she does it for a reason. She saves petrol!!

Yepp!

You read me right! I may be german but I still know the meaning of saving.

Your mistrust would be absolutly understandable here, because women mostly have a diffrent affinity to the word saving. Your girlfriend comes home, both hands full of shopping bags and brags "I just saved sooo much money, honey!"

If you ask "how?" you deserve what comes next:

"I bought 3 bras at Victorias Secrets and got 4 for the same price, so with the money I saved I got a pair of shoes."

But back to the motorized saving process. When a women drives a car, the mileage doesn't calculate with km/l , it works with km/time. You don't believe me? Has it never happened to you, that you told M. "Uh, the petrol tank is almost empty" and she replied "Ooookaaaay! I'll speed up then!"?

There you go...

But this is already much more than I wanted to write. Another normal thing among women: they just get drifted away talking. Of course this has its own special reason, too. The always present situation is when your girlfriend comes home from spending a whole day with her friend Lisa. She just entered the room when she tells you "I just give Lisa a quick call to tell her I made it home alright!" (Lisa lives next door) and then she talks for three hours.

The calm kind of a man just thinks "Maybe something interesting happend on the way home" (Lisa still lives next door) or "I wonder what they have to talk about again".

The more nervous man, who has a parallel relation between the time he spends with his girlfriend and the time he shoots zombies in the head in another computergame, thinks something different:

a) "The content of the female word database must have an expiration date and must be regularily renewed, so it has to be emptied before it starts molding"

b) "There must be a worldwide vow of silence startin tomorrow that she knows of, relevant for everyone"

C) "maybe there is a reward bonus programm. collect points for every thousand words and get a porcellaine dwarf for free".

But remember, I claim, there is a reason. It is...

..oh my, look at the time. I have to run.

All I wanted to say is: I adore you! When my time comes I want to be buried in your garden. Since your house is a garden itself, please just sprinkle my ashes over the plant in the bathtub. it would give me the lonley caribean island feeling.

Thank you so much for the best entertainment I've ever read.

Take care

Elvira

Comments Oh. My. God.

You're nuts and I think I love you! You are, without a doubt, the most consistantly funny, most hilarious writer I've found in the blog-world so far. I am now going to be cramped into a "sitting-in-a-chair" position for at least a week. The first thing I read was the "Things" section. I learned very quickly that drinking coffee while reading you is DANGEROUS. I almost sprayed the keyboard and monitor, had it coming outta my nose and choked all at the same time. I love your sense of humor! The way you are with your girlfriend is wonderfully funny. She's great. I wish I could meet and hang around with you two in person. I know I'd be rolling on the floor, dying from laughter.
I hope you do keep adding to this site-I blogrolled you. And, I fully intend to get on the mailing list.

I mean everyone else in the world looks up to us, right? We *do* keep everyone else in the world from killing each other, so obviously we deserve respect.
