Sometimes the "chit chat" after a package runs on the air will leave you "red faced". Check out this clip....

This is what happens when you let the interns onto the anchor set.

Interns?! They both look more like HS kids playing on the news set!

I dunno. Seems pretty clear to me that she said, ".... with a heart on." The copy of the story explained that people were to wear a heart if they were single and unattached.
But those with penises will hear something dirty if there is ever a glimmer of a chance of doing so.
I was once bewildered by all the snickering from the men at work when I told them I had to caulk my tub. I don't get it!

Excuse me. I have a fabulous sense of humor. Ask anyone.
Sheesh. You guys are so sensitive. Why get yourselves all spun up just because I point out that ...YES... men embrace potty humor, juvenille humor for years longer than do women?
I've worked with men (photographers) for years... who end up snickering like 13 year old boys at every suggestion of ANYTHING involving sex or bodily functions. I often have to stop the conversation and ask what's funny and they'll explain it's about farts or erections or something.
Even 40 - 50 men.
I'm not being sexist. I'm being a realist. That's what men do.
Kudos to those of you who have grown up.
(PS I'm not being hard on guys oops... snicker! I'm just sharing my observations. Some people get really tense when others point out reality. I've never understood that. )
We all know that men and women are different. why get all offended when we point it out?
PSS - SOME people (like my boyfriend) appreciate that I recognize and accept the differences between men and women. It means that I accept him for what he is and I don't demand that he change. although I am working on getting him to release gas in a room other than the one I'm in (as I do out of consideration for him) ... I'm not holding out hope

Well, I had to find a smart one first.
Are we supposed to get married as soon as we meet? Or do you mind if we get to know each other for a while?
sheesh. why so mean?
Funny. Normally the men on here are complaining about the women who made their lives miserable because SHE expected HIM to change.
I accept men as they are - and I'm criticized.
You guys are a piece of work.

I watched the video, I don't see what the problem is ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
I clearly understood every word, everything said was relevant to the story and even the chit chat at the end was a valid point.

If you were truly accepting of men you wouldn't be so bothered by our potty humor. Maybe you're just tolerant.
