On the other hand, lots of young men died as they were sent off to war.

[jasimp]

Absolutely hilarious, and partially true. Not all men are that stupid.

[jbennet]

Not all men had a choice

My Grandpapa says: "Men really live longer than women, they just don't say much so you don't notice them."

[jbennet]

lol thats legend

WOMEN LIVE LO(NGER THAN MEN?!

Now I have to think up a whole new way to get back at her! :(

[Ancient Dragon]

According to those pictures men also have much lower IQ than women :)

[steven woodman]

And thats only the things that people have caught on camera. Imagine how bad it really gets.

I would like to meet the person that took each picture.

[majestic0110]

lol Steven. Glad you all like the photos, they tickled me somewhat!

While men die doing stupid things to satisfy the demands of their spouces, our nursing homes are filling up with feeble old biddies, barely a man in sight. Yes, women live longer than men.

It's also said that married men live longer than single men.

Actually, they live equally long. It just seems longer to the married guys

[majestic0110]

lol nice one Vmanes!

Actually the way I heard it was more like this - Why do married men die younger? They want to!

(And before anyone complains, yes, I am married, and no, I don't feel that way personally).

KDoiron, welcome to DaniWeb! I remember it was you that introduced me to Cole's Law.

And just which variant of Cole's Law would that be?

[ZZucker]

And just which variant of Cole's Law would that be?

I know only one variant, Cole's Law: "Thinly Sliced Cabbage"

I think women live longer than men because we were an upgraded model of the human being.

That's the one.

And thanks, Sneekula - I actually found this board while looking for some Python code.

Dear Tech Support:
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0.
I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child
processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources.
In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and
now monitors all other system>activity. Applications such as Beer
Night 10.3, Cricket 5.0, Hunting and Fishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6 no
longer run, crashing the system whenever selected.
I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting
to run my favorite applications. I'm thinking about going back to
Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall doesn't work on Wife 1.0. Please
help!
Thanks,
A Troubled User.

Dear Troubled User:
This is a very common problem that men complain about.
Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0, thinking that
it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program.
Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator
to run EVERYTHING!!!
It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend
7.0. It is impossible to uninstall, or purge the program files from
the system once installed.
You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed
to not allow this. Look in your Wife 1.0 manual under Warnings-
Alimony-Child Support. I recommend that you keep Wife1.0 and
work on improving the situation. I suggest installing the
background application "Yes Dear" to alleviate software
augmentation.
The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE
because ultimately you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command
before the system will return to normal anyway.
Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high
maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs, such
as Clean and Sweep 3.0, Cook It 1.5 and Do Bills 4.2. However,
be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will
cause the system to launch the program Nag, Nag 9.5. Once this
happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is
to purchase additional software. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and
Diamonds 5.0! WARNING!!! DO NOT, under any circumstances,
install Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3. This application is not
supported by Wife 1.0 and will cause irreversible damage to the
operating system.
Best of luck,
Tech Support

Great stuff AD!

Think about it, women can form a new human being, a God-like endeavor indeed. Men could help by doing some of the houshold chores at least.

i think women's metabolism is slower by default. their body temperature is lower than men too. the same thing is the reason why northern people live longer than southern people. it is like refrigerator effect on foods.

[MosaicFuneral]

Or it could be that women live longer because they don't like to jump off bridges on a bike, prefer not to destroy things with a pellet gun with the excuse that they can't even pump it, can't fancy blazing trails out in the swamps, and, and, and, and... sigh...
Living with a family of women can be a bummer.

Well, I'm going to go untangle my beard and go raise a bear named Ben.

Reminds me of the below :)

That was great. Best laugh I've had in a while. Truth is... women live longer because men take more risks in life, they usually dont think about what others think and just have a good time. Where as us women are always concerned about what others think therfor we limit ourselves, I love being a women... cause it has its perks.... but bottom line is men have the most fun!!

Ah, but women have such a well developed ESP. They know when a guy is gonna get "lucky". ;)

[quicktpgo]

One reason is maybe woman are more care about their figure and health than woman!
