    Default The Husband Store

    A brand new department store has just opened in London. It sells husbands.

    When women go to choose a husband, they have to follow the following instructions:-

    You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are 6 floors and the value of the products increase as you go up. You may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go to the next floor, but you CANNOT go back down except to exit the building.

    One day a woman goes into the store and rather nervously starts climbing the stairs.

    When she gets to the 1st floor a sign on the door reads:
    Floor 1: These men have jobs.
    She thinks, "I can do better than that" and keeps going up.
    The 2nd floor sign reads:
    Floor 2: These men have jobs and love kids.
    But she goes up another floor.
    The 3rd 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 4th floor and the sign reads:
    Floor 4: These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and help with the housework.
    "Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"
    Still, she goes to the 5th floor and the sign reads:
    Floor 5: These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.

    She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the 6th floor and 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.

    To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opens a Wives store just across the street.
    The 1st first floor has wives that love sex.
    The 2nd floor has wives that love sex and have money.
    The 3rd,4th, 5th and 6th floors have never been visited.

    One of life's great contradictions. Women aren't happy unless they have something to be unhappy about. The big problem with that is that if a woman in your home is unhappy, then everyone is unhappy!

    Except the woman, who is supposedly happy about being unhappy?

    Women never make sense to men, except when we marry them!

    True. That makes sense but what's the saying? "An old blind hog finds an acorn every now and then."?
