They don't know the proper way to load a dishwasher, when they run laundry someone's whites always come out pink and they don't know what the right answer is to "does this make me look fat?" They're oversexed, insensitive, bumbling man-children who escape being divorced, dumped or turned into social outcasts every episode by the skin of their teeth, thanks to the women in their lives who take mercy on them and shrug off their endless flaws. Think Tim Taylor or Homer Simpson with monsters.
I recall a comment from a poster not so long ago:
"Nick has a history of almost 4 seasons bending over backward for this bitch".
To be sure, the poster who made this comment is now contradicting himself. However, this is not the only comment from the forum that points fingers at Juliette as the issue in the Nick/Juliette relationship. I've never watched the Simpsons, but I have watched Tool Time. Jill could have left Tim and the audience probably would have applauded her for doing so.
It would not have been the same if Juliette had flat out left Nick early in the series. The outcry that would have resulted would have had many criticizing Juliette as the cold hearted snipe and Nick as the compassionate and understanding man who only wanted to put her on a pedestal.
Look at the scenes where Juliette was a hexenbiest and left Nick with no where to go but her car, or those where she kept ignoring Nick's phone calls.
If Nick is the stereotypical male, why the severe criticism of Juliette then?
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
