Train Tickets - A little bit of humour

Three women and three men are at a railway ticket office, on their way to a
music festival. The three men each buy a ticket and watch as the three women
buy just one ticket.


'How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket?' asks one of
the men.


'Watch and learn,' answers one of the women.

They board the train. The three men take their respective seats but all
three women cram into a toilet together and close the door.



Shortly after the train has departed the conductor comes around checking
tickets.


He knocks on the toilet door and says, 'Ticket, please. '



The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand.
The conductor checks it and moves on.


The men see this happen and agree it was quite a clever idea; so they decide
to do the same thing on the return trip and save some money. When they get
to the station they buy a single ticket for the return trip but see, to
their astonishment, that the three women don't buy any ticket at all!


'How are you going to travel without a ticket?' says one perplexed man.


'Watch and learn,' answers one of the women.


When they board the train the three men cram themselves into a toilet and
the three women cram into another toilet just down the way.


Shortly after the train is on its way one of the women leaves her toilet and
walks over to the toilet in which the men are hiding.

The woman knocks on their door and says, 'Ticket, please.'

I'm still trying to figure out why men ever think they are smarter than
women.
