A presidential candidate's choice is the choice for me, October 17, 2012
By Bazinga

This review is from: Avery Durable View Binder with 2 Inch EZ-Turn Ring, White, 1 Binder (17032) (Office Product)

As a woman, I'm not adept at making decisions that concern me. So when I need the right choice, I turn to the presidential candidate that KNOWS. One with prideful experience in this department. I don't want to be filed away in an inferior & confusing electronic doohickey that I couldn't possibly understand. Or heaven forbid, have a man ask for & listen to my ideas! I'd much rather rely on this top of the line, 1980s style, Avery Durable binder. It's the choice America can trust. My education, my ideas, my opinions, my choices, please PLEASE keep them safely stored away here and far away from the men that might fear them (I mean, want to use them to hire me somedaynever). I'd write more about this most useful product, but it's time I hurry home to make dinner.

1.0 out of 5 stars And in the darkness bind them? Hardly, October 18, 2012

By Xaxyx - See all my reviewsThis review is from: Avery Durable View Binder with 2 Inch EZ-Turn Ring, White, 1 Binder (17032) (Office Product)

Having been previously thwarted in my campaign to wage war against the Men of the West, I was elated to discover the existence of the fabled EZ-Turn Rings of the Avery Durable View Binder. Unfortunately, all advertisements to the contrary, I was no more successful in binding the women of Middle Earth, even in darkness. Perhaps having three rings in the binder is a design flaw. Do they carry a one ring model?

Amazon.com: Sabriel's review of Avery Durable View Binder with 2 Inch EZ-T...

Maybe it's just my women, but they don't seem to want to fit into the space I've designated for them in this binder. They keep sticking out over the edges, even getting away in some cases. I thought using clear, glass-ceiling page protectors would help, but it doesn't seem to slow them down anymore.

I'm going to have to resort to more severe three-hole punching, to keep my women in line. And maybe switch to the Trap Her, Keep Her.

If you buy this is because you like to be lied too by car salesman telling you just what he thinks you like to hear. The binder also flip flops a lot, you never know if it is going to hold its position.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too small for me, but it will last a long time!, October 18, 2012

I should have read more of the reviews before buying this binder. My daughter asked me to dress up for Halloween, and then the idea struck. Why not go as a binder? After all, that's a woman's favorite place to be, full of qualifications and nowhere to take them. However, I realized quickly after delivery that this binder, while easy to get into - just add decades of professional experience, and an advanced degree - is nearly impossible to take off.

It is way too small; perhaps it has been incorrectly described on Amazon. In any case, I think I might keep it around for my daughters. It is supposed to be very durable. They too might enjoy being in a binder when they are older. Though I hope all this binder conversation will be a distant memory, and they will at least get to upgrade to a book.

Keeps 'em organized and ready, October 18, 2012

When I got this, some of the guys harassed me a bit, asking why I needed a binder for women in the first place.

They're sorta right. Look, I'm married to a very smart woman, and with the economy and all she only works part time, so she's got plenty of time to spend at home taking care of all the domestic business.

Why do I need a binder full of women? We live in an unpredictable world, my friend. Who knows what's gonna happen tomorrow?

These Avery binders are great. With 6 of them, I'm able to keep a whole slew of women organized and at the ready.

In one of the white ones I organize everything alphabetically. Another is organized by earnings potential. In a blue one everything is domestic: child rearing, cooking, ease of birthing, cleaning, etc.

I've even got one - don't tell my wife, I do love her so - more focused on, shall we say, the bedroom.

Some guys don't get it. They figure all woman are the same. So disrespectful. Women today, they're smart, educated, and got all kinds of talents. When you need to find the right woman for the job, you need a system.

These Avery binders do the trick, I highly recommend them.

I recommend going to the site... There are a lot of great snarky comment. LOL.

Kudos to smart, funny people who turn conservative stupidity into something hilarious. I see this haunting Romney for a long ... long time.

It's funny too:

Finally. Something I can use with my Bic For Her Pens! I ruined my last binder when I smashed my head into the glass ceiling. This binder is not only lightweight and easy to carry but also comes completely empty! Just like my head.
I don't know why this binder gets so many poor reviews from people looking for women. I mean, there isn't really a binder of women somewhere out there. Right? Is there? *doodles on binder cover*
