I know, I had their number almost a year ago. One of the benefits of being a regular reader of Cracked.

Oh cool, hadn’t seen that, thanks.

Here’s my other fave case study from that ‘essay’:

Elizabeth was a smart liberal who knew she would be better off marrying a conservative than a liberal like herself. She found one in Stan, a conservative who was a very hard worker and who did not have the luxury of time to develop the social skills that Elizabeth had.

Stan’s circle of friends and acquaintances were limited, and he thought all women were liberal. He married Elizabeth thinking that all women were liberal like her.

For the next thirty years Elizabeth censored Stan’s conservative comments, interfered with his conservative activities, and caused problems for Stan at every political turn. But Stan thought all women were that way, and rarely complained.

Tragically, Elizabeth became sick and died. Stan then remarried, this time to a conservative woman whom he did not even realize existed. For the rest of his life Stan marveled at how different — and better — his life was.

In honour of International Wimmens Day, for all haters everywhere, I give them this:
