International Nagging Day Is Today

Today is 'International Nagging Day'. Does nagging work? Or is it called 'persuasion'? And ladies, speaking of nagging, if a man says he will fix it, he will. There's no need to remind him every 6 months to do it.
Sometimes nagging will get you what you want, sometimes it gets you a sock in the eye and a 'blah, blah on Facebook'. Happy nagging today and celebrate accordingly.
