Title: Good old (short) jokes...
Post by: g'bye, Dick Rees on August 26, 2014, 04:18:14 PM
Time for a little levity...and brevity.

A little girl had a basket of puppies, and when asked their names replied, "Fido and spot and Liberace".

"why Liberace?"

" 'Cause he's the peein'-est!"

The vendor makes the dog and the customer pays the $5 tab with a $10 bill.  He waits and finally asks for this change.  The vendor replies "surely a Buddhist knows that change comes from within."

Did you hear about the bass player who locked his keys in his car?
It took the authorities two hours to get him out of the car.

What is the blonde doing when she holds her hands tightly over her ears?
Trying to hold onto a thought.

Guinness Book Of World Records
Sleeping Beauty, Tom Thumb, and Quasimodo were all talking one day.
Sleeping Beauty said, "I believe myself to be the most beautiful girl in the world."
Tom Thumb said, "I must be the smallest person in the world."
Quasimodo said, "I absolutely have to be the most tacky, rude, crude, gross & disgusting person in the world."
So they all decided to go to the Guinness Book of World Records to have their claims verified.
Sleeping Beauty went in first and came out looking deliriously happy. "It's official; I AM the most beautiful girl in the world."
Tom Thumb went next and emerged triumphant, saying "I am now officially the smallest person in the world."
Sometime later, Quasimodo comes out looking utterly confused and asks, "Who the hell is Rosie O'Donnell?"

The Lottery
A woman gets home, screeches her car into the driveway, runs into the house, slams the door and shouts at the top of her lungs,
"John, pack your bags.  I won the lottery!"
The husband says, "Oh my God!  What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain stuff?"
"Doesn't matter," she says.  "Just get the hell out."

I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things just seem funny? Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... He was a DWARF!!!

He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, "I AM NOT HAPPY!!!"

So, I looked down at him and said, "Well, then which one are you?"


Yup, that's a short joke....

A production manager is walking along with his LX and A1 when they find a lamp which holds a genie, who decides to grant them each a wish.

The lighting guy wishes for a boat with a hot tub filled with women. Poof, off he goes.

The sound guy wishes to be on a beach in Tahiti. Poof, he vanishes.

Finally, the genie turns to the production manager. His wish?  "I want my crew back here in 5 minutes!"

With native Lake Superior game fish populations depleted by parasites and over-fishing, the DNR decided to try stocking new species and brought in the Coho salmon...but it couldn't take the cold water, so they crossed it with the native walleye.

This sort of worked, but the Co-wal hybrid was too small for their liking...so the crossed the hybrid with a muskie for size.  The resulting double-hybrid Co-wal-skie was just what they wanted.

But it couldn't swim, so it drowned.

Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Ray Noorda were having lunch one day. (In case you're wondering, Ray Noorda was chairman of Novell -- remember Novell? -- which used to be a powerhouse in the network OS world.)

Naturally, they had to flaunt the technology of their respective companies. As they were eating, Bill's watch started flashing and vibrating. Bill excused himself, saying "just a moment, I have to check this email on my Outlook(R) watch."

A little bit later, Steve's ear started ringing. Steve said, "Excuse me, I must take this call" as he pulled on his earlobe.

Not long after Steve hung up, Ray let out a thunderous fart. "Quick, get me a piece of paper. I'm receiving a fax."

Four friends, who haven't seen each other for 30 years go out for dinner.
After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids.

The first guy said, 'My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel.
He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the president of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday.'

The second guy said, 'Darn, that's terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school to become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he owns the majority of its assets He's so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday.'

The third man said: 'Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer. Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire... He also gave away something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A 30,000 square foot mansion.'

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: 'What are all the congratulations for?' One of the three said: 'We were talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons... What about your son?'

The fourth man replied: 'My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub.' The three friends said: 'What a shame... What a disappointment.'

The fourth man replied: 'No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him.

And he hasn't done too bad either. His birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.'

Four friends, who haven't seen each other for 30 years go out for dinner.
After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids.

The first guy said, 'My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel.
He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the president of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday.'

The second guy said, 'Darn, that's terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school to become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he owns the majority of its assets He's so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday.'

The third man said: 'Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer. Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire... He also gave away something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A 30,000 square foot mansion.'

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: 'What are all the congratulations for?' One of the three said: 'We were talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons... What about your son?'

The fourth man replied: 'My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub.' The three friends said: 'What a shame... What a disappointment.'

The fourth man replied: 'No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him.

And he hasn't done too bad either. His birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.'

There was a lady, who had a dog that she loved, and he followed her everywhere. One morning she woke up, went to the bathroom, came out, and realized that her dog wasn't at her feet. She found him in his bed ''sleeping''. She called his name, but he didn't get up. So she took him to the vet and told the vet that her dog wouldn't wake up. So he looked at her dog and said, ''Your dog is dead''. She asked the doctor to perform another test to be sure.

The doctor went into another room, and came back with a cage. In it there was a cat. He let the cat out, and she walked arund the dog, sniffed, and went back in her cage. The doc put the cat back in the other room. He came out and said again, ''Your dog is dead''.

She was like ''Ok, how much do I owe you?''

The doctor said ''$300''

She said, ''What!?!? How could it cost that much??''

He said ''$15 for me to say he was dead, and $285 for the cat scan''

The Sicilian actuary can give you their names.

Don't do anything till I get back.

Back in the 1980s I was doing  lighting at one of our local theatres (all local council owned).  The previous week there had been a small fire at one of their other theatres.

One afternoon I went with the theatre's caretaker to pick up some lights in his van.  His parting message to everyone else in the theatre was "If there's a fire, keep it going until I get back".

Back in the 1980s I was doing  lighting at one of our local theatres (all local council owned).  The previous week there had been a small fire at one of their other theatres.

One afternoon I went with the theatre's caretaker to pick up some lights in his van.  His parting message to everyone else in the theatre was "If there's a fire, keep it going until I get back"

From Laurel and Hardy:

"I'll hold the nail and when I nod my head, hit it with the hammer."

That is a rehash of old WWII jokes mostly about Italian or French military. We're all on the same side now... 

Another joke from back then was "for sale: used military tanks, one speed forward 4 speeds reverse."

That reminds me of the two neighboring countries (fill in the blanks) where an imbecile from country A emigrated to country B and raised the aggregate IQ of both countries by doing so.

In the interest of accuracy I moved from GA to MS but it's a joke and I make no actual inference about the IQ of MS, or GA, or CT, or myself, while I have a few doubts about CT (where I lived for 15 years)...  8)

Why is peter pan green? Cause if someone hit your peter with a pan you'd be green too....

And because I don't do short........ for your enjoyment please read the following:

All in all, it hadn't been a good day. Bad traffic, a malfunctioning
computer, incompetent coworkers and a sore back all made me a seething cauldron of rage.
But more importantly for this story, it had been over forty-eight hours since I'd last taken a dump. I'd tried to jump start the process, beginning my day with a bowl of bowel-cleansing fiber cereal, following it with six cups of coffee at work, and adding a bean-laden lunch at Taco Bell. As I was returning home from work, my insides let me know with subtle rumbles and the emission of the occasional tiny fart that Big Things would be happening soon. Alas, I had to stop at the mall to pick up an order. I completed this task, and as I was walking past the stores on my way back to the car, I noticed a large sale sign proclaiming, "Everything Must Go!"
This was prophetic, for my colon informed me with a sudden violent cramp and a wet, squeaky fart that everything was indeed about to go. I hurried to the mall bathrooms. I surveyed the five stalls, which I have numbered 1 through 5 for your convenience:

1.Occupied.

2.Clean, but Bathroom Protocol forbids its use, as it's next to the occupied one.

3.Poo on seat.

4.Poo and toilet paper in bowl, unidentifiable liquid splattered on
seat.

5.No toilet paper, no stall door, unidentifiable sticky object near base
of toilet.

Clearly, it had to be Stall ..1. I trudged back, entered, dropped trou
and sat down. I'm normally a fairly Shameful shitter. I wasn't happy
about being next to the occupied stall, but Big Things were afoot.

I was just getting ready to bear down when all of a sudden the sweet
sounds of Beethoven came from next door, followed by a fumbling, and
then the sound of a voice answering the ringing phone. As usual for a
cell phone conversation, the voice was exactly 8 dB louder than it
needed to be. Out of Shameful habit, my sphincter slammed shut. The
inane conversation went on and on. Mr. Shitter was blathering to Mrs.
Shitter about the shitty day he had.
I sat there, cramping and miserable, waiting for him to finish. As the loud conversation dragged on, I became angrier and angrier, thinking that I, too, had a crappy day, but I was too polite to yak about in public. My bowels let me know in no uncertain terms that if I didn't get crapping soon, my day would be getting even crappier.

Finally my anger reached a point that overcame Shamefulness. I no longer cared. I gripped the toilet paper holder with one hand, braced my other hand against the side of the stall, and pushed with all my might. I was rewarded with a fart of colossal magnitude -- a cross between the sound of someone ripping a very wet bed sheet in half and of plywood being torn off a wall. The sound gradually transitioned into a heavily
modulated low-RPM tone, not unlike someone firing up a Harley. I managed to hit the resonance frequency of the stall, and it shook gently.

Once my ass cheeks stopped flapping in the breeze, three things became
apparent:
(1) The next-door conversation had ceased;
(2) my colon's continued seizing indicated that there was more to come;
and
(3) the bathroom was now beset by a horrible, eldritch stench.

It was as if a gateway to Hell had been opened. The foul miasma quickly
made its way under the stall and began choking my poop-mate. This initial "herald" fart had ended his conversation in mid-sentence.

"Oh my God," I heard him utter, following it with suppressed sounds of
choking, and then, "No, baby, that wasn't me (cough, gag), you could
hear that (gag)??"

Now there was no stopping me. I pushed for all I was worth. I could
swear that in the resulting cacophony of rips, squirts, splashes, poots,
and blasts, I was actually lifted slightly off the pot. The amount of
stuff in me was incredible. It sprayed against the bowl with tremendous
force. Later, in surveying the damage, I'd see that liquid poop had
actually managed to ricochet out of the bowl and run down the side on to
the floor. But for now, all I could do was hang on for the ride.

Next door I could hear him fumbling with the paper dispenser as he
desperately tried to finish his task. Little snatches of conversation
made themselves heard over my anal symphony: "Gotta go... horrible...
throw up... in my mouth... not... make it... tell the kids... love
them... oh God..." followed by more sounds of suppressed gagging and
retching.

Alas, it is evidently difficult to hold one's phone and wipe one's ass
at the same time. Just as my high-pressure abuse of the toilet was
winding down, I heard a plop and splash from next door, followed by
string of swear words and gags. My poop-mate had dropped his phone into the toilet.


There was a lull in my production, and the restroom became deathly
quiet. I could envision him standing there, wondering what to do. A
final anal announcement came trumpeting from my behind, small chunks
plopping noisily into the water. That must have been the last straw. I
heard a flush, a fumbling with the lock, and then the stall door was
thrown open. I heard him running out of the bathroom, slamming the door behind him.

After a considerable amount of paperwork, I got up and surveyed the
damage. I felt bad for the janitor who'd be forced to deal with this,
but I knew that flushing was not an option. No toilet in the world could
handle that unholy mess. Flushing would only lead to a floor flooded
with filth.

As I left, I glanced into the next-door stall. Nothing remained in the
bowl. Had he flushed his phone, or had he plucked it out and left the
bathroom with nasty unwashed hands? The world will never know.

I exited the bathroom, momentarily proud and Shameless, looking around for a face glaring at me. But I saw no one. I suspect that somehow my supernatural elimination has managed to transfer my Shamefulness to my anonymous poop-mate.

I think it'll be a long time before he can bring himself to poop in public -- and I doubt he'll ever again answer his cell phone in the bathroom.


And this, my friends, is why you should never talk on your phone in the bathroom.

And this, my friends, is why you should never talk on your phone in the bathroom.


This reminds me of a TRUE story that happened about 15 years ago when we used to live in San Diego. It happened to Chris.

Chris was (and still is) a sales rep during the week and travels 40-50k per year by car and over the years he has had to become quite good at seeking out clean decent restrooms on those occasions where nature calls and keeps calling......

So one of his favorite 'rest rooms' was Torrey Pines Golf course in La Jolla and one time he was close by and HAD to go.

This is the story he told me afterwards:

" I was absolutely busting for a c**p and was so relieved to be within 10 minutes of the golf course. I was already late for an appointment so time was of the essence.
As usual I pulled in and parked and hurriedly walked to the bathroom which appeared empty. I quickly walked into a stall and sat down. Just at the defining moment, I heard someone come in but I couldn't hold on and let go. Obviously I must have had a bit of an upset stomach because it was demonic to say the least.

I was so embarrassed and although I really wanted to wait till I was sure the guy had left before coming out of the stall, I had to get going as time was getting on. By the time I walked over to the sink, the guy was still there washing his hands. I stood a few feet away from him trying not to make eye contact in the mirror.
He then spoke, " Feel better there champ?". I shyly looked over and there was Barry Manilow looking at me with a grin on his face....... I just replied, " Yep - I sure do thanks"".
