Pawn Shops: Materialized Bad Decisions

I visited a pawn shop today. A friend purchased an engagement ring for a lady, that ended up not working out, so I pawned the ring for him.

While looking around the store, I noticed a pattern: Everything they had to sell was awesome! They had guitars, gaming systems, swords, maces, knives, televisions, DVDs, and video games. They also had a Buffy the Vampire Slayer toy! The shop contained a cornucopia of items that single-me would enjoy owning. It was strange, though, because the majority of their merchandise are items a guy would want to own. The only "lady items" were found in the display case full of jewelry, most of which were rings.

Reflecting on this later with a friend, we fashioned a working hypothesis to explain the content of pawn shops:

Girls use pawn shops to dispose of their guy's things.

Guys use pawn shops to rid themselves of the rings they tried to use to get girls, who would have disposed of their things.

Basically, pawn shops seem to exist because of dumb relationships.
