The husband store
A store that sells new husbands has opened
in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a
husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a
description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There
are six floors and the value of the products increase as
the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any
item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the
next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the
building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to
find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door
reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs.
She is intrigued, but continues to the
second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love
Kids.
'That's nice,' she thinks,
'but I want more.'
So she continues upward. The third 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 fourth floor and the sign
reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids,
are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims,
'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the
sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids,
are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, an d Have a
Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to
the sixth floor, where 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.
PLEASE NOTE:
To avoid gender bias charges, the
store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the
street.
The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex,
have money and like beer.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors
have never been visited
