Woman: My husband spent $2400 on a big screen TV this morning so he could watch a football game! Woman 2: My boyfriend already had a big screen, but rushed out and bought a flat big screen! Woman 3: "Buy by 10:00am, and we guarantee delivery by kick-off time!" Woman: He saw the ads and became hysterical! Woman 2: He didn't care that it wouldn't match anything in the living room! Woman 3: He didn't care that he'd sworn to save money this year! Woman: He didn't care that he already owns two perfectly good TVs! Woman 2: "This one's different!" He shrieked! Woman 3: "This is a completely different thing!!" Women: Sigh. Woman: He shopped! Woman 2: He shopped stupidly, but he shopped! Woman 3: We found one brain cell we can relate to! Cathy: Another Super Bowl victory for the undefeatable female spirit.

I hate (American) football.

Hey, simpsonfan2, not all of us. I now and always in the past have hated “shopping” for the mere sake of going from store to store looking at who knows what. A waste of time and utterly boring.
If I need something I will look for it and try to find the best price and then buy it and be done with it.
I got better things to do than simply “shop” for fun.

simpsonfan2:
Please don’t lump all of us women in the same category with each other because we’re not all alike!
I absolutely hate shopping so you won’t find me in any store anywhere unless I’m there to buy something specific (and even then, I still don’t like it). Being in a store for no good reason other than to wander around aimlessly and with no intention of buying anything when I’d much rather be at home spending precious time with my family is practically a fate worse than death for me!

Simpsonsfan wrote: Men don’t shop, unless we actually expect to buy something. That’s one thing I’ll never understand, that women can go into stores and not expect to buy something.
Simpsonsfan2: That is complete and utter nonsense. Men browse the tech shops and the power tool shops all the time knowing that they didn’t necessarily go in there to buy something that day. I see it all the time. “Can I help you, Sir?” – “Nope. I’m just browsing…”
