    How to explain the offside rule so that they can have a healthier life (actually talk) with their husbands/boyfriends during the football

    Pls pay attention Women....

    You're in a shoe shop, second in the queue for the till.
    On the till is a pair of shoes which you have seen and which you must have.

    The female shopper in front has seen them and your show of interest.
    You, however, do not have the necessary funds to purchase the shoes, you left the money at the back of the shop with your friend.

    It would be totally rude to push in front of the first woman if you had no money to pay for the shoes.
    The shop assistant remains at the till waiting.

    Your friend has possession of a pair of shoes she likes at the back of the shop and sees your dilemma.
    She prepares to throw her purse to you...

    Either:

    1) As soon as she throws and you can catch the purse, you walk round the other shopper by which ever means possible (apart from physically knocking her over) and buy the shoes.

    or..

    1) Your friend can throw the purse ahead of the other shopper and whilst it is in flight you could nip round the other shopper and catch the purse and buy the shoes.

    Pls note that UNTIL the purse had actually been thrown, it would be plain wrong to push or go around the front of the other shopper.

    Undoubtably the security guy at the door would have been watching recent events unfold. If you were to do that he or his other security mates would stop you buying the shoes and give the woman infront the chance to buy the shoes herself.

    Hopefully they now understand. Carefree.
