Overheard in a History Book:

"That's right. The windshield wiper blade was invented by a woman—ME—in 1903. Most cars didn't even have windshields when I came up with the idea. What? You have a hard time believing a woman would invent something that would go over the same thing over and over and over and over again, stop for a while, and then go over and over and over and over it again, forever if necessary? Then you don't know women. Shithead."
