Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for August 14, 2018

So who picks up all the cars’ scrap metal every July?

The average woman gets bored with shopping after she has spent all her money

I call shenanigans. Women NEVER tire of shopping for their stuff. They only get tired when shopping for sporting goods, tools, car care products, or lawn care items.

Shoes, dresses and accessories? They can shop until doomsday.

Men get tired of shopping before they get out of the car. Hopefully, there is a bench at the entrance, so he can set there staring into space.

K & G. a men’s clothing store, had an ad that had a male chorus singing, “We’re guys, and we don’t like shopping!”

How did they measure the temperature of the lava? How can you make a thermometer that won’t melt and burn up at such high temperatures?

They forgot to mention the 11 clowns that go down with the car.

What in the name of heaven takes so long to shop!! Does any woman know why they are shopping or what they want? I go to the hardware store and buy what I need and gone, less than 26 minutes normally. I actually know why I went to the store and what I need. I amazed a vacuum salesman once. He asked me what I was looking for, I said that vacuum. He looked at me and said he never had anyone make up there mind that quickly. I had already researched it before I went.

Well, a Demolition Derby would be more interesting, but, I prefer an Auto Thrill Show (hell drivers) myself.

I can see pushing them off the cliff, but throwing, I think not.

My wife makes a list to ignore.

THROWING cars off a cliff? Hardy folk in Glacier View.

Glacier View, Alaska, bring your car under your own risk.

26 minutes? Wow – that seems long…

26 minutes? I’m female and THAT’S too long!

As a female I can say personally that I hate shopping. I’m one of those “let’s get this over with” and I beeline to what I need, I grab something and I check out. I don’t try on clothes anymore because I HATE that. For shoes, I grab the first thing in my size that looks decent and is in my price range so takes me about 5 minutes tops to shop for shoes. I have better things to do with my time than spend hours at a store.

Now, online shopping is fun. I can take hours doing that because I multi-task and research by reading reviews and comparing prices before I add-to-cart.

I don’t shop. I know what I am after when I leave the house.

Over “Black Friday” weekend Gina can shop for 3-4 days!

I suppose how bored one gets with shopping depends on what kind of shopping. Perhaps men would stay more engaged in an electronics store (where women would get out fast).

What volcano had 2444 degree lava? Google says the hottest is 2200 degrees.

They haven’t met my friend who can stay in one store for two hours.

The only place I really enjoy shopping is in a bookstore. (I’m female)

And that’s why when I have to go shopping with a female, I take a book and a deck of playing cards.

And even those 26 minutes are pure hell, because you have to stand by to answer questions like “Do you think this … makes my … look too …?” Were we allowed to simply remain in a stupor for those 26 minutes, even in the car in the parking lot, it would be more survivable.
