chochiyo_samaWhy Older Chicks Rule by Andy Rooney from CBS "60 Minutes":
As I grow in age, I value women who are over 40 most of all. Here are
just a few reasons why:
A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask,
"What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around
whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually
something more interesting.
A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what
she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 40 give a
hoot what you might think about her
or what she's doing.
Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you
at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.
Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to
shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often
undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.
A woman over 40 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women
friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend
because she doesn't trust the guy with other
women. Women over 40 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends
because she knows her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a
woman over 40. They always know.
A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red
lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or
two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell
you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever
have to wonder where you stand with her.
Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of
reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart,
well-coiffed hot woman of 40+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow
pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old
waitress.
Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you
can get the milk for free", here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women
are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an
entire pig, just to get a little sausage.
That's all I can post for now--I have to go change my pants. I laughed so hard I peed.
