Fabian Strategy

Method of getting your way in disputes with your girlfriend by appearing to give into her demands. The Fabian strategy derives it's name from the Roman general Quintus Fabius Maximus. He ran away, rather than engage in battle, he would retreat and retreat until the enemy grew fatigued and eventually made a mistake. Though I abhor it as a military strategy, it is the basis for all successful personal relationships.
My girlfriend wanted to re-paint the hallway so rather than say yes or no, I employed the Fabian Strategy and asked her if her sister had done anything crazy lately. She spent an hour ranting about that and totally forgot to ask me about the paint samples she brought home. She is sleeping peacefully and Fabian (me) has retreated to his den where he is drinking scotch and playing Snood.

to pull a Stacey

A Stacey is when you show up to a dinner late. Then you sit down you order and all. Then you wait for the exact moment when the entrée is served. At that point you ask for the bill. Pay. Leave without saying good bye to anyone or apologising and leaving the meal you ordered untouched.

A true Stacey is pulled when one hosts the event. However, the term has become more loosely defined in recent times.

The Polarity Strategy

Life is endless battle and conflict, and you cannot fight effectively unless you can identify your enemies. Learn to smoke out your enemies, to spot them by the signs and patterns that reveal hostility. Then, once you have them in your sights, inwardly declare war. Your enemies can fill you with purpose and direction.
