My 'Life Rider'
Let me explain as you've requested. You see, a 'Life Rider' is very much like the 'Backstage Rider' listed above. Yet, I do not find any of my demands unreasonable.
In fact, I was so comfortable with them, that instead of a prenuptial agreement, I put together a 'Life Rider' prior to marrying my wife.
Here are just a few as I don't want to provide too much information and then have people steal my ideas. So many copy cats out there!
Life Rider - Version 4.8
Demand 4: Left Sock - Upon waking up each morning, my socks shall be prepared and in a folded state at the end of my bed. The left sock shall be warmed to a temperature of 95 degrees.
Note: Unreasonable, please! Who doesn't want this?
Demand 17: The Fridge - At all times, the fridge shall be stocked with at least 3 different types of amber beer, 2 variations of Gatorade flavors, 2 popsicle choices and a full gallon of milk. If the gallon of milk has been opened, then a new gallon shall be purchased to represent the full gallon needed for this clause.
Note: Milk is very important - again, not out of the ordinary
Demand 49: Physical condition - at all times, your body must be kept in model like shape regardless of the time of year, conditions outside or what you are wearing. This will require a regimen of physical exercise, trips to the doctor and a heavy focus on diet. Exceptions to be made are the following: Pregnancy when accompanied by a note from the doctor confirming the condition.
Note: Ok - this one was considered a bit unreasonable.
Now, an interesting side note to this 'Life Rider' - while strict and legally binding, it also makes for a good fire starter. My wife proved this to me when she promptly lit in on fire when I presented it to her. Of course, she had her own 'Life Rider' in place and its quite simple for me to remember.
It reads: OBEY!
I guess I can live with that . . .
