The F.U.N Quotient... summer BBQ!

Ahh, the joys of when the men cook...

A typical summer BBQ routine... maybe it doesn't happen this way at your house. 

1) The woman buys the food.

2) The woman chops, slices, and makes the salad, preps the vegetables, and bakes a dessert.
3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, possibly marinating it for hours, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
Here comes the important part:
4) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
5) The woman goes inside to prepare the table and set out the plates and cutlery.
6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.
Important again:
7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine.....
8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces and brings them to the table.
9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts while the man asks the woman how she enjoyed 'her night off.' And, upon seeing her reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....
