I don't know if you guys noticed, but women are much better talkers than men. The strip below could have applied to my father and me.

When two or more ladies talk at the same time, I find I cannot understand either one of them, yet, they seem to be carrying on a conversation. Maybe they are, I can't tell.

Yes, and that's what amazes me. A group of women can have a conversation with several talking at once. I would wait for an opening to make a comment, but there never is an opening.

I began wearing hearing aids a few years ago and thought it might help when in a group or when watching discussions on TV. Did nothing to help. As a result, I now sit quietly and let everyone else talk, hoping to get a portion of the conversation so I can maybe make a sensible comment. Doesn't always work.

They can't either but neither cares.

Reminds me of a couple characters in MASH. An officer and an enlisted man would come together, engage in full duplex communication with both speaking at the same time, salute, and leave.

True this. And if you do manage to get a remark in, they ALL turn around to look at you.
