*The Husband Store*
A store that sells *new husbands* has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
"You may visit this store *ONLY ONCE!* There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights.. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!"
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
*Floor 1* - These men Have Jobs
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
*Floor 2* - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.
'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.'
So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
*Floor 3* - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
*Floor 4* - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.*
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
* Floor 5* - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
*Floor 6* - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that WOMEN ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE.
*Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store*.
*PLEASE NOTE:*
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a *New Wives store* just across the street...
The first floor has *wives that love sex*.
The second floor *has wives that love sex and have money and like beer*.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited |
