We're not trying to propagate any gender stereotypes here, but let's be honest with each other. Your girlfriend probably can't hook up the DVD player. If you're anything like us, your home entertainment system is a mass of wires and cables that run to your TV, stereo, Xbox 360, PS3, cable box, DVR, et cetera. And nothing is labeled. So all you have to do if chick flick night is on the horizon is go in there, swap a couple wires and then act all befuddled when things aren't working. If she demands you repair it, just pull out a random cable, claim it's "burnt out" and go on Amazon to "order a new one." That's just one way to avoid watching a chick flick.
