£100. Way too high maintenance for me so she's all yours. Feel free to post some pics of the 'nice tits' for other potential bidders though.Originally posted by Sockpuppet View PostShe's also good looking and has nice tits. I'll start the bidding for her phone number at £100.Comment

A husband looking through the paper came upon a study that said women use more words than men.
Excited to prove to his wife that he had been right all along when he accused her of talking too much, he showed her the study results. It read "Men use about 15,000 words per day, but women use 30,000".
The wife thought for a while, then finally she said to her husband "It's because we have to repeat everything we say."
The husband said "What?"Guy Fawkes - "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."Comment

I think men invented language, beginning with grunts for such things as 'danger', 'come here' and 'feck off'. Women extended and enriched this form of communication and used it to set up complex social relationships, or gossip networks. They try to persuade men to to join in these sessions because here they are undisputed king, and most of men's words are used trying to get out of joining in. An arms race ensued and Women's brains became ever more highly developed and wired for language and for other illogical ways of thinking. While I could believe women speak 15,000 words a day, I feel 7,000 is an exagerration for men, with 7 being closer to the optimum, of which 6 are grunts.Last edited by TimberWolf; 31 July 2008, 05:42.Comment
