Title: Gluttony
Post by alien2 on Jan 12^th, 2017, 12:49pm

A man can’t stand overweight women. He and an overweight woman are standing at a bus stop. He is standing next to her until the bus arrives. After half an hour he says to her with sincerity - Thank you very much. – and then enters the bus which just arrived. What season of the year is it and why?

I guess it has something to do with [hide]umbrellas[/hide] - but in the country I come from that could be any season!

It is winter because it is January.

A matter of time, eh? I had something else in mind.

Ask yourself, why would he approach her in the first place? And why would any man or alien approach her? Because her beauty comes from the inside? Whatever works for you, it must work for me as well. It appears, earthlings and aliens are not so different after all. Carl Sagan did say that Martians will be humans.

The probability of getting the right answer is now 1/3, soon to be 1/2:

[hide]Summer, shadow[/hide].

[hide]Summer, shadow[/hide].
Let me tell you. That was [hide]one big shadow. I even thought nighttime arrived earlier than expected.[/hide]
