Top ten reasons why computers are female
10. The instruction manual is mostly wishful thinking.
9. Even after you’ve turned them on, they just sit there waiting for you to make the next move.

Why is a Christmas tree better than a man?
It stays up for twelve nights, has cute balls, and looks good with the lights on!
