A STORE THAT SELLS HUSBANDS
A store that sells husbands has just opened where a woman may
go to choose a husband from among many men…
The store
is composed of 6 floors, and the men increase in positive
attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.
There is,
however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose
a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go
back down except to exit the building.
So a woman goes to
the shopping center to find a husband.
On the first floor
the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men have
jobs.
The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well,
that's better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what's further
up?"
So up she goes.
The second floor sign
reads:
Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids.
The
woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's
further up?" And up she goes again.
The third floor sign
reads:
Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and are
extremely good looking.
"Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder
what's upstairs?"
The fourth floor sign reads:
Floor
4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and
help with the housework.
"Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very
tempting. BUT, there must be more further up!" And again she heads
up another flight.
The fifth floor sign reads:
Floor
5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking,
help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.
"Oh,
mercy me! But just think… what must be awaiting me further on?" So
up to the sixth floor she goes.
The sixth floor sign
reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 3,456,789,012 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 and have a nice day.
