Why is it a stereotype that men spend more time crapping than women do?

Its true. Men tend to sit on the loo and crap and read the paper, playboy and whatever. I think they actually enjoy sitting there and shitting. The guys I know do anyway. Thats why guys have heaps of porno and other magazines in the loo.

Why is the line for the women's bathroom always like 10 times longer than the men's then?

Because we dont have a urinal that we can just whip it out and piss in, our bladders are smaller and more susceptible to alcohol so we need to piss more frequently, bathroom visits couple as a piss stop/ make up fix/ gossip about you men/ sneak a line or two while we are there kinda thing.

I am amazed at how long some chicks take to piss though - but these are the ones who are probably racking up lines.




I want to know WHY- knowing that chicks always have huge lines for the toilets- clubs dont have zillions of girl toilets to take this into account! Also WHY they never have enough loo paper. BAH!

guys:
don't open + lock a bathroom stall
don't pull down their undergarments + pants
don't wipe
don't pull back up their undergarments + pants
don't then adjust their clothing
don't unlock, open + go back out the bathroom stall
and
don't wash their hands (yuck)

all of that makes for a longer bathroom trip.

When you move into an apartment, what do you do for utilities, phone etc.?
Do you have to get ahold of the city to turn on your water and power? Or is it already on, and you'll start getting a bill as soon as you use some?

Moving next month, been living in an all-expenses-paid apartment until now so no clue how things actually work

 

[THR!]

You'll need to contact the utility companies to get yourself switched on. Normally power/water is on but you need to contact them to provide your details otherwise they won't have anyone to bill to and after a while they will disconnect the supply.

For phone, it won't work unless you contact them.

 

[sickpuppy]

Yeah you gotta contact the phone company and tell them your change of addresss. You can probaly keep your same number but you'll need to contact them before they cut off your service from your previous local residence.

my car got broken into and cd player stolen, but the amp is seperate...so can I cut up a headphone cable and use it to connect an old discman straight to the amp?

Actually I'm moving to the other end of the continent, and i've never had a cell phone or anything. Not too worried about phone service, as I rarely use a phone, but I guess I'll have to find the physical building somehow ... hard to call a place or e-mail when you have no phone or net :D

 

[michael]

they have these things today known as 'phone directories.' rumor has it you can even find them on the 'internet.'



in all honesty it might be easier to get a cell phone anyway, especially if you're not going to use the phone much.

Im a chick and i can say i like takin a good shit. *shrugs* sorry if thats too much information but damn, yall guys can say it.

I dont know what there is to not like about it.

Wake up in the morning, drink some coffee, maybe hit or 2 off a blunt left over from the night before, smoke a cigarette, and its like clockwork. ahhhh. read the paper in there if no ones waiting. dont know whats so weird about that.

Plus no one can bother you in there and most likely no one will want to LOL

 

[chrissie]

some people are in and out... they squeeze that sucker out as fast as they can. others like to chill and let things go at their own pace. i hang around, read a magazine or play my gameboy. it's not good for you to squeeze it out like you're giving birth or something

 

[wizekrak]

Time permitting I wait untill at least the "third movement"

Of course after drinking coffee it's a half an hour or less till blast-off.

 

[subdefy]

what's the point of "time"?

 

[bingey]

Being able to lead a bizzier and more productive collective life , planning .

now what's the point of winter time / summer time really wondered about that one a lot and get fucked by it every year (2 times)

 

[wizekrak]

Time exists as a fourth dimension on order to allow for changes in the other 3.

Daylight savings time, has to do with farmers wanting more early morning sunlight. Saskatchewan doesn;t need to change their clocks, lucky bastards.

As far as I know, day light savings time was instituted so that school children didn't have to wait for the bus and/or walk to school in the pitch dark during winter.

It's not used in all of the United States, and I have no idea as for the rest of the world.

 

[THR!]

Today, approximately 70 countries utilise Daylight Saving Time in at least a portion of the country. The only major industrialized country not to have introduced daylight saving is Japan.

While European nations have been taking advantage of the time change for decades, in 1996 the European Union (EU) standardized an EU-wide "summertime period." The EU version of Daylight Saving Time runs from the last Sunday in March through the last Sunday in October. During the summer, Russia's clocks are two hours ahead of standard time. For example, Moscow standard time (UTC+3) is about a half-hour ahead of local mean time (UTC+2:30); this is about the same situation as Detroit, where the standard time (UTC-5) is also about a half-hour ahead of local mean time (UTC-5:32). During the winter, all 11 of the Russian time zones remain an hour ahead of standard time. With their high latitude, the two hours of Daylight Saving Time really help to save daylight. In the Southern Hemisphere where summer comes in December, Daylight Saving Time is observed from October to March. (The clock at above right is viewed from within the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.)

My question: If men have 1 x chromosome and women have 2 x chromosomes, does that mean women are 100% women and men are 50% women?

Pretty much Yes. But the Y chromosome is dominant, I believe, so XY thus making the person biologically male. Two X chromosomes makes a biologically female human.
