    I was just talking with a friend about this

    how neither one of us has _ever_ dated a guy funnier than ourselves. And we _want_ to. We look for this everywhere... and still, nothing.

    I think the reason men think women aren't funny is 'cuz they can't hear us? Wasn't there a study 'bout men interpreting women's voices as music, unless their musicians(?) Tho, that doesn't cover _reading_ funny things that women write.

    Anyways... whenever I want to get a good laugh I usually do a search in google images for "X Y Chromosome" to see the electron microscope images of the two gender defining genes, as well as some graphs showing the (non)evolution of the Y chromosome over the years. Here's a hint, the Y reproduces asexually, so it doesn't evolve.. it just gets passed down father to son, from pre-history to now. Doesn't that explain, well, just about eVerYThinG about human behavior?

    But, the picture tells the story. Trust me. Google it. It's hysterical.
