Punctuation is powerful

Postby Warmsoul/Jeanie13 » Mon Jun 14, 2010 6:17 pm

A Professor wrote on the chalkboard...

"A woman without her man is nothing"
and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.

All of the males in the class wrote:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."

All the females in the class wrote:
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Then again, there's the British version.....

A teacher wrote on the blackboard...

" Woman without her man is a savage "
and asked his students to punctuate it correctly.

All of the girls in the class wrote:
" Woman, without her, man is a savage. "

All of the boys in the class wrote:
" Woman without her man, is a savage. "

I guess men and women are the same wherever you go! :wink: :lol:
