Men are like

  • …Coffee.

    The best ones are rich, warm, full-bodied, and can keep you up all night long.

  • …Cement.

    After getting laid, they take a long time to get hard.

  • …Chocolate Bars.

    Sweet, smooth, and they usually head right for your hips.

  • …Blenders.

    You need one, but you’re not quite sure why.

  • …Coolers.

    Load them with beer and you can take them anywhere.

  • …Copiers.

    You need them for reproduction, but that’s about it.

  • …Curling irons.

    They’re always hot, and they’re always in your hair.

  • …Government bonds.

    They take so long to mature.

  • …High heels.

    They’re easy to walk on once you get the hang of it.

  • …Horoscopes.

    They always tell you what to do and are usually wrong.

  • …Lawn Mowers.

    If you’re not pushing one around, then you’re riding it.

  • …Lava lamps.

    Fun to look at, but not all that bright.

  • …Laxatives.

    They irritate the shit out of you.

  • …Mascara.

    They usually run at the first sign of emotion.

  • …Mini skirts.

    If you’re not careful, they’ll creep up your legs.

  • …Noodles.

    They’re always in hot water, they lack taste, and they need dough.

  • …Parking spots.

    The good ones are already taken and the ones that are left are handicapped or extremely small.

  • …Plungers.

    They spend most of their lives in a hardware store or the bathroom.

  • …Popcorn.

    They satisfy you, but only for a little while.

  • …Placemats.

    They only show up when there’s food on the table.

  • …Snowstorms.

    You never know when he’s coming, how many inches you’ll get or how long he will last.

  • …Used Cars.

    Both are easy-to-get, cheap, and unreliable.

  • …Vacations.

    They never seem to be long enough.

  • …Weather.

    Nothing can be done to change either one of them.
