INSTANT WISDOM > HUMOR > 2007
Did you know that many non-living things have a gender?   
For example:   


1) Ziploc Bags -- They are Male, because they hold everything   
in, but you can see right through them.   

2) Copiers -- They are Female, because once turned off, it   
takes a while to warm them up again. It's an effective   
reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can   
wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.   

3) Tire -- Male, because it goes bald and it's often over-   
inflated.   

4) Hot Air Balloon -- Male, because, to get it to go anywhere,   
you have to light a fire under it  and, of course, there's the   
hot air component.   

5) Sponges -- Female, because they're soft, squeezable and   
retain water.   

6) Web Page -- Female, because it's always getting hit on.   

7) Subway -- Male, because it uses the same old lines to pick   
people up.   

8) Hourglass -- Female, because over time, the weight can shift   
to the bottom.   

9) Hammer -- Male, because it hasn't changed much over the last   
5,000 years, but it's handy to have around.   

10) Remote Control --  Female. Ha! You thought it'd be male.   
But consider this -- it gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost   
without it, and while he doesn't always know the right buttons   
to push, he keeps trying.
