Online Sex, Anyone?

(@10:30PM – promoted by On The Bus)


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’.

One of the students 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 money on accessories for it.

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 had you waited a little longer, you could have got a better model.

Needless to say… the women won ended up on top.

    “Gasolina” by Daddy Yankee…you know…the one McCain loves.

    The Spanish words used in that song all have sexual connotations without being as explicit as the regular terms used by the “kids” today. Instead of “puta” it used “gato” which means kitty/pussy and has the same double meaning as in English. “Gasolina” meaning “sperm” in this song…and, of course she wants it “duro” or hard….

    My gutter Spanish hasn’t gotten as rusty as I thought it would since I retired.

    Well, this was an email I got a while back…it was funny then and still is…

  2. The man HAS to be on top!
