I'll say it once, i'll say it again:

When stealing stuff from another site or getting it via email, do the courtesy of editing out the f*cking >>>.

Thank you.

Mildly amusing joke.

A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.
"House" for instance, is feminine: "la casa."
"Pencil," however, is masculine: "el lapiz."

A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"
Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.
Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the
feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:
  1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
  2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
  3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval.
  4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ("el computador"), because:
  1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on.
  2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves.
  3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem.
  4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won !
Improved readability a tad
and hmm.... too many of these kinds of jokes around already... they lose their funny-ness :/

i liked it, am going to change my irl name to "El Computador" too because then it will make me sound like futuristic, latino warrior!! sent back in time from the future to fight windmills and throw tomatoes at the evil doers..


and possibly wear a mask and make sweet sweet lovin' to the innocent yet highly sexeh pesant boy in the tight shirt and ragged trousers...

But you're female so it should be "La Computadora", no?

but that sounds so, so.... so limp dammit! :(
Sadly yes... but hey, I am sure being female has advantages too! The fact that I just cant think of any surely doesnt mean there aint any!

Women can't always pwn you with that sh1t

If she's got a nice pussy, then fine. Testosterpwnd.

But some girls don't have pussies. They have buckets ! Cya !

They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves.
As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
Definately apply to the other side as well.

Still funny though.
