Thougt we could all start fresh. Ocassionally I read one that gives me a chuckle, as I did this one. Hope you find it funny also (and maybe true?)
You may not know that many non-living things have a gender:
Ziploc Bags -- They are Male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
Copiers -- They are Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again. It's an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.
Tire -- Male, because it goes bald and it's often over-inflated.
Hot Air Balloon -- Male, because, to get it to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under it and, of course, there's the hot air part.
Sponges -- Female, because they're soft, squeezable and retain water.
Web Page -- Female, because it's always getting hit on.
Subway -- Male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.
Hourglass -- Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.
Hammer -- Male, because it hasn't changed much over the last 5,000 years, but it's handy to have around.
Remote Control -- Female......Ha! You thought it'd be male. But consider this -- it gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know the right buttons to push, he keeps trying.
