Re: Old Renter Says Asians Need Not Apply?
He meant it to say "agents", not "Asians".

I thought at first that's what he said, but I guess I just couldn't believe he misspelled agents that badly... he even capitalized "Asians" for goodness sakes.

It's a cheap newspaper ad. He probably dictated it over the 'phone.

Snow White...
Pinocchio, Snow White and Superman are walking down the street when they come across a sign, 'Beauty contest for the most beautiful woman in the world.'
'I am entering,' said Snow White. After half an hour she comes out and they ask her, 'Well, how was it? 'First Place', Snow White replied.
They continue walking and they see a sign: 'Contest for the strongest man in the world .'
'I'm entering,' says Superman and after half an hour he returns and they ask him, 'How was it?' 'First Place,' answers Superman.
They continue walking when they see a sign 'Contest! Who is the world's greatest liar?'
Pinocchio enters. After half an hour he returns with tears in his eyes. 'What happened?' they asked,
'Who's Dick Cheney?' asked Pinocchio

Spanish Class
This was in an email to me:
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; and
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; and
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.

Except that women never make a mistake, and like a computer when there is a problem it is the operator (male's) fault ...

Wait, I remember reading a story about a woman who made the mistake of eating from the wrong tree. There was a pretty huge penalty for that, I think...what was it again? Oh yeah, God hates us now forever.
