I've seen this one before but now there is an addition to the
original. jennellh.
A store that sells new husbands has just opened in New York
City. 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, and 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 who
love sex.
The second floor has wives who love sex and have money.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been
visited.
