I bet she hadn't taken her purse out/ got the cards ready for when all her items were scanned eitherOriginally posted by Gonzo View PostWomen have to multi-task because they can't do any one thing very quickly.
I have posted this before at some point but wtf.
I was waiting to use the self-service checkout in the supermarket. I was waiting behind a woman who was trying to put her items through the checkout while having a conversation on her mobile phone.
Becuase she was on the phone she wasn't able to concentrate on putting the items through the checkout so it took far longer than it should have done.
Because she was trying to use the checkout she couldn't concentrate on her phone call and had to keep adjusting how she was holding the phone so the whole conversation took far longer than it should have done.
Multi-tasking my arse.
Rant over, feel better now.

Women also seem to think they inherit the right to claim this even when it isn't true in their case.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View PostThat women and multi tasking thing is rubbish. Notice how it is put around by women. I can multi task but I choose to unitask so that I can do one thing correctly instead of a half @rsed job on two fronts.
My wife seems to think she has a more logical thought process than me. My argument is that I work in IT and have a degree in maths. Most of what I do is driven by logic. The problem is that her logic fails to grasp it. That is, her basic logic deems my superior logic to be illogical. Which is why I win. Logical really!
Was talking to a friend about pain and she started to go on about how women can withstand the pain of childbirth.
Wait. Have you had a child yet? Er..no. So what the feck do you know about it...when you've popped a sprog and not by c-section then come back

Hey, I never said I was clever.Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostCan you do some waxing eloquently on philosophy here please? Philosophy is usually such a disappointment, but I’m keen to be convinced that it’s not just vacuous bullcarp.

I don't think it’s a myth, I've seen some phenomenal female multitaskers. They don't go deep though.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View PostThat women and multi tasking thing is rubbish.
Possibly men could do the same if they stayed shallow enough though.
