Interesting. I would agree with Adams in that it is more of a stereotype of women.
I suppose it is equal to both sides. My point here is that I know a couple of guys who are completely unable to finish a story. After the point of the story is gone, they just linger in your cubicle for days after. You turn around hours later and they're still standing there mumbling about something.

is it? Is it really? Or does that just reflect on the demographics of your particular workplace? I think the real point is that we all have colleagues that do this. Gender in this case, and in so, so, SO many others, is completely irrelevant. I think I got your message about why the woman in the comic but way to go killing any humour in that post

Well, it was a challenge because I'd probably get responses either way. I think it is irrelevant too actually. But the Adams ended up making it a woman and I was thinking well, all through my years of working in cubicles it has been the other way. It doesn't matter though because all evidence is empirical.

I can't say anything to that. I take all audio drivers offline and enter self test mode as soon as women start babbling, screeching, nagging or complaining. I only listen when they try to get insulting. It amuses me.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
