Mars and Venus: Procedures
Sunday, 02.25.07 @ 12:07AM 
Gender differences have always fascinated me. I've collected a lot of funnies about the subject, so here's another chapter in a recurring series. Now, before you read the rest of this, remember I LOVE men. I also have a high respect for women. The stereotypes can by funny, though, and you probably need a laugh. You've probably noticed than men and women do things differently. Taken to extreme, it can be just plain funny.
When I first posted this in 2005, only about 6 people read this site. Now there's a different half-dozen people coming around, so I didn't think it would be any shame to repost. These procedures, whether real or stereotyped, are still funny!
BANKING

A new sign in the Bank Lobby reads: "Please note that this Bank is installing new Drive-through teller machines enabling customers to withdraw cash without leaving their vehicles.

HOW TO SHOWER
The first time I published this post, you had to scroll through this entire routine. Now thanks to YouTube, you can just watch the video. How to Shower, for both men and women.
HIS and HERS Road Trip
HERS:
Pulls off at wrong exit.
opens window
asks directions of a knowledgeable police officer
Arrives at destination presently.
HIS:
Pulls off at wrong exit absolutely positive it's the correct one.
Drives five miles into wilderness, still thinks he's right.
Drives an extra 5 miles just in cas
e.
Finally rolls down window just to get fresh air
Pulls up to a 7 -11
Gets three hot-dogs, a large slurpee, and beef jerky
Asks person behind counter how to get back onto the highway.
Gets back into car.
Laughs at the idea of looking at a map as he pulls away from the 7-11.
Drives down a dirt road with no street lights insisting this is the way back because guy from 7-11 said it was.
Almost hits a deer
Curses the night
Curses you
Curses the large slurpee
Drives and fiddles with radio.
Yells at you for suggesting the map again
Admits he didn't want to go to Thanksgiving at your sister's anyway.
He hates your sister.
Ever since she called him a pernicious weasel
He had to look up pernicious.
Couldn't find a dictionary.
Finally found a dictionary
Couldn't spell pernicious.
Seethes at the memory of it all
But she is laughing inside...
And of course you're still lost.
If you enjoyed this post, there's more like it in the Mars and Venus section, and more saved from the old site.
Thought for today: According to a recent survey, men say the first thing they notice about a woman is her eyes. Women say the first thing they notice about men is that they're a bunch of liars.

so far I've maneged 16 seconds on the red square, thrown away half the rainforest in tossing paper in the can, seen the good earth video three times, and laughed my ass off reading the mens and womens showers.
Its always fun to come here for a laugh.
BTW I never get lost or in need for directions.
I just keep driving, the world is round and eventually I got to end up back where i started from :)
Have a nice weekend
If all are the same...there will be no gender.

PS:Won't ask for Slurpee, but will drive thru a Starbucks for an Espresso Frappacino Venti..X-X-X shot of coffee with it!
I hate driving up to use the ATM. I'm always too far away, and I feel like an idiot when I have to open the door in order to stick that dang card in. There's too much truth in this post of yours!
