    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.
    I bet she hadn't taken her purse out/ got the cards ready for when all her items were scanned either

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!
    Women also seem to think they inherit the right to claim this even when it isn't true in their case.

    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

    Possibly men could do the same if they stayed shallow enough though.
