Rules 36 to 40

Our Marti

Rule 36: Avoid Marti's puppy dog eyes.

- She's cute and she's perfectly aware of this fact. She will not hesitate to use her irresistible puppy dog eyes on you if you disagree with her.

- Besides, she pouts too.

- Resistance is futile. We have already tried and miserably failed.

Rule 37: Never say 'no' to Marti.

- She just doesn't accept that.

- If you pronounce the banned word, she'll scream until you give up.

- And she has a very sharp and disagreeable voice when she screams.

- Hey, why shod we have to all suffer for your idiocy? So say yes.

Rule 38: You're not allowed to call Marti by the nickname Smarti.

- It's a sacred thing between her and her biggest brother. Let this to them.

- Know that even our warning may be sacrilege.

- In the past, sacrilege was punishable by burning the offender.

- Derek already has his own modern version of the woodshed.

Rule 39: Beware of Marti's angel face.

- This is just a mask. In reality, she's a devilish demon.

- She is good at manipulation.

- If she compliments you, she wants something of you.

- If she begins to pout, pray is your only and latest chance. (See Rule 36.)

Rule 40: Keep an eye on the contents of your pockets.

- Marti has kleptomaniac tendencies.

- "Borrowing without permission" is still stealing.

- Even if she denied (ignored) the fact.

- Don't divulge this information or someone risks finding your dead body the next morning.
