Friday's Funnies

 High Society

Remembering their anniversary was coming up, Dave told his wife Marylou he would take her out to dine like royalty.  Later when her mother asked how their dinner date went, Marylou reported, "we started out at Burger King and wound up at Dairy Queen."

Need Help?
The elevator in our building malfunctioned one day, leaving several of us stranded. Seeing a sign that listed two emergency phone numbers, I dialed the first and explained our situation.  After what seemed to be a very long silence, the voice on the other end said, "I don't know what you expect me to do for you. I'm a psychologist."  "A psychologist?" I replied. "Your phone is listed here as an emergency number. Can't you help us?"  "Well," he finally responded in a measured tone. "How do you feel about being stuck in an elevator?"

A Cheerful Heart

One of our good friends was waiting nearby while his young son prayed silently before going to bed. Suddenly the boy burst out laughing. "Reggie," scolded his father, "why are you laughing during prayer?"  "But Dad," the boy answered, "you told me that prayer is talking to God as a friend, and I just told him a joke."

Signs and Thoughts

Batter Up

As the manager of our hospital's softball team, I was responsible for returning equipment to the proper owners at the end of the season.  When I walked into the surgery department carrying a bat that belonged to one of the surgeons, I passed several patients and their families in a waiting area.  "Look honey," one man said to his wife, "here comes your anesthesiologist."

Forgetting Something

A man was on his way home with a new car which was absorbing all his attention.  He was playing with the touch screen when it struck him that he had forgotten something.  He stopped, counted his parcels, searched his pockets, but finally decided he had everything with him.  When he finally got home his daughter ran out, stopped short and yelled "Daddy, where's mommy?"

One-liners

·        My dog once ate all the Scrabble tiles. I found strange messages around the house for days.

·        Ban shredded cheese.  Make America grate again.

·        Our mountains aren't just funny, they're hill areas.

·        Why aren't koalas actual bears? The don't meet the koalafications.

·        Turning vegan would be a missed steak.

·        Well, to be frank, I'd have to change my name.

·        I'm friends with 25 letters of the alphabet. I don't know Y.

Correction

There was this guy who always seemed to lean slightly to the left all the time.  His friend suggested he see a doctor to have his legs checked out. The guy refused. . . said his friend was crazy. But he finally went and, sure enough, the doctor discovered his left leg was shorter than his right! A quick bit of orthopedic surgery later he was cured; both legs were exactly the same length, and he didn't lean left anymore. His friend said, "You didn't believe me when I told you a doctor could fix your leg." The guy said: "I stand corrected."

Friday's Funnies

 

Aggressive Ticket Agent

I think the lady at the airline counter just threatened me. She looked me dead in the eye and said, “Window or aisle?" I laughed in her face and replied, "Window or you'll what?"

Pill Exercise

The doctor handed her overweight patient a bottle of pills. "Don't swallow these pills," she said. "Instead, spill them on the floor three times a day and pick them up one by one."

Handwriting

A man writing at the post office desk was approached by an older fellow with a postcard in his hand. The old man said, "Sir, I'm sorry to bother you but could you address this postcard for me? My arthritis is acting up today and I can't even hold a pen." "Certainly sir,' said the younger man, "I'd be glad to." He wrote out the address and also agreed to write a short message and sign the card for the man. Finally, the younger man asked, "Now, is there anything else I can do for you?" The old fellow thought about it for a moment and said, "Yes, at the end could you just add, 'P.S., please excuse the sloppy handwriting.'?"

Consensus

Consensus means that everyone agrees to say collectively what no one will say individually.

Diagnosis

The psychology instructor had just finished a lecture on mental health and was giving an oral test. Speaking specifically about manic depression, she asked, "How would you diagnose a patient who walks back and forth screaming at the top of his lungs one minute, then sits in a chair weeping uncontrollably the next?" A young man in the rear raised his hand and answered, "A basketball coach?"

Blind Date

 

"How was your blind date?" a college student asked her roommate. "Terrible!" the roommate answered. "He showed up in his 1932 Rolls Royce." "Wow! That's a very expensive car. What's so bad about that?" "He was the original owner!"

 

Birthday Hints

 

It's my wife's birthday soon and she's been leaving jewelry catalogs all over the house. She'll be happy to know I got the hint. I got her a magazine rack.

 

Two Liners

It's been raining for days, and my wife seems so sad looking through the window.
If it continues like this, I might have to let her in.

How many software developers does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Zero, that's a hardware issue.

Here's a bit of advice for you.
Advi.

Three conspiracy theorists walk into a bar.
You can't tell me it’s a coincidence!

What's the only thing worse than constant advertisements?
You'll find out right after these messages...

To the guy who invented infinity,
thanks for everything.


I got a PlayStation 5 for my brother.
Best trade ever.

I had to remove the battery from my carbon monoxide detector.
The constant beeping was giving me a headache and making me feel sick.

What do you get if you mix a horse with a cat?
A very strange-tasting smoothie, and a traumatizing experience for everyone involved.

I broke my finger today.
On the other hand, I am okay.

I'd tell you a joke about the PlayStation 5,
but you probably won't get it.

As I handed my Dad his 50th birthday card, he looked at me with tears in his eyes and said,
"You know, one would have been enough."

According to the Chinese Zodiac, 2020 was the Year of the Rat. So we've been spending most the year holed up, only briefly leaving to get food, running at the sight of other humans, and transmitting infection.

 

High School Reunion

 

A woman was shopping for something to wear to her 50th high school reunion when a group of teenage girls came into the same shop to try on dresses for their school formal. "Gross," complained one girl loudly to her friends, "this dress makes me look 40 years old!" "May I have it?" called out the lady. "That's just what I'm looking for!"

 

Dad Joke

 

Why can't you trust atoms? They make up everything.

 

Today’s Thought

 

I made a huge to-do list for today. Just not sure who is going to do it.

Church Instead of Fishing

 

A man who hadn't attended church in years suddenly began attending faithfully on Sunday mornings instead of going fishing as was his normal habit.  The pastor was highly gratified and at the end of service one morning told him, "How wonderful it makes me feel to see you at services with your good wife!" "Well, Preacher," said the fisherman, "Quite honestly, it's a matter of choice. I'd much rather hear your sermon than hers."

 

Cosmetics

 

Joe's wife bought a new line of expensive cosmetics guaranteed to make her look years younger. After a lengthy sitting before the mirror applying the "miracle" products, she asked, "Darling, honestly, what age would you say I am?"  Looking over her carefully, Joe replied, "Judging from your skin, twenty; your hair, eighteen; and your figure, twenty five."  "Oh, you flatterer!" she gushed.  "Hey, wait a minute!" Joe interrupted. "I haven't added them up yet."

A husband took his young daughter to the grocery store to help him buy groceries. In addition to the healthy items on his wife's carefully prepared list, the two of them returned home with a package of sugar-filled cookies.  "Why in the world did you buy those?" his wife asked. "You know they aren't good for you!"  "Oh, but don't worry, honey, these cookies have one-third less calories than usual in them," the husband replied.  The wife looked all over the package but couldn't find any claim to that fact, so she asked, "What makes you think that?"  "We ate about a third of the box on the way home."

 

Sixteen Times

 

A little boy was attending his first wedding. After the service, his cousin asked him, "How many women can a man marry?"  "Sixteen," the boy responded.  His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly.
