Are you OK?

Yes. The answer is always yes. Even if it's "yeah, but..."

This is a rule that should be followed by all guys. If someone asks you if you are ok, no matter what the circumstances, your answer is always "yes." I don't care if your leg is broken the opposite direction and you are bleeding profusely, your answer needs to be yes. Otherwise, you're acting like a you know what (I'll keep it clean).

A reasonable example for this situation would be the following:

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm ok, but my leg is shattered and I'm bleeding. I need some help right away."

If you say no in this situation, the only thing left for you to do is scream cry.

Looking back on it, Matt and I were ahead of our time at the ripe age of 6. I remember even back in kindergarten, we'd always make a big deal out if it if someone said they weren't ok. As terrible and soulless as it sounds, we'd even imitate them and pretend we were crying.

What I'm talking about is not a matter of being 'tough' or anything. I'm not sure what it's a matter of, actually. Maybe just my [sometimes humble] opinion.

This was just inspired by a situation I was in the other day. I won't go into specifics because the person might be reading this, but let's just say that yeah he was OK and it really wasn't a big deal. I gave Jensen this rant and she just listened with a half smirk, as if she was thinking "well I kind of agree with you, but you're sort of an asshole at the same time."
