I thought that I would start a new humor section as the other one is nearly 20 pages short. I don't know where Snake gets all his (bad) jokes from, but keep 'em coming....
I'll start it with a bad one of my own.
A woman in her late forties went to a plastic surgeon for a face-lift.
The surgeon told her about a new procedure called "The Knob", where a
small knob is placed on the back of a woman's head and can be turned to tighten up her skin to produce the effect of a brand new face lift.
Of course, the woman wanted "The Knob." Fifteen years later, the woman
returned to the surgeon with two problems. "All these years, erything
has been working just fine. I've had to turn the knob many times and I've always loved the results. But now I've developed two annoying problems.
First, I have these terrible bags under my eyes and the knob won't get rid of them.
"The doctor looked at her closely and said, "Those aren't bags, those are your breasts."
She said, "Well, I guess that explains the goatee

The Onion strikes again.
Let's here it for good old Craig.

Just wanted to add from the previously locked thread.....
Last line from the Onion satire about Craig, the skeptic:
"I realize that Craig seems very happy with his narrow little common-sense-based worldview," Frank continued, "but when you think of all the widely embraced beliefs that are excluded by that way of thinking, you have to feel kind of sad."
What's so funny to me about this line is a zipperhead co-worker told me in so many words, the same thing a couple of years ago. He went on and on about how not only have space aliens visited Earth in the past but that they actually live here amongst us. Along too with a comment of himself waking in the middle of the night and "feeling" some presence in his room. He couldn't say what it was but that "something" was there. I chuckled and asked for some concrete evidence of the aliens with saying his midnight "feeling" was most likely his over-active imagination.
....Enter his (Onion) goofball comment here.
I smiled, shook my head and went back to work.
Jeez, where do these nematodes come from?

Thanks, it's nice to be appreciated for something!! "Bad", what do you mean bad? LOL.
And, I have my sources, heh he. But I wish I could write, life is so humorous, the things I see people do all the time. One never ceases to be amused. |

I had a work colleague who was sprouting all of the "facts" after the moon hoax program was aired her in Oz. I printed out the page that debunks the conspiracy theories from Bad Astronomy and placed it on his desk to read....
A day or two later he said that all of the stuff I printed out was nonsense and that I must be extremely narrow minded not to accept the FACT that it was hoax....
I told him that we would have to agree to disagree.......so be it then.
This man is a high ranking manager in the company where I work earning over 100,000 a year........even the stupid can get rich |

I find that the link between success and intelligence is much more tenuous than most people believe. Sigh. But here's something to smile at:
Texas surgeons
Three Texas surgeons were having lunch together and
discussing surgeries they had performed.
One of them said, "I'm the best surgeon in Texas. A
concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident, I
reattached them and 8 months later he performed a
private concert for the Queen of England."
One of the others said. "That's nothing. A young man
lost both arms and legs in a terrible accident, I
reattached them and 2 years later he won 2 gold
medals in field events in the Olympics."
The third surgeon said, "You guys are amateurs.
Several years ago a guy who was high on cocaine and
alcohol rode a horse head on into a train traveling
80 miles an hour. All I had left to work with was the
horse's ass and a cowboy hat. He's now president of
the United States."

Hey Snake, isn't this mob named after your favourite band???
The exclusive Military Order of the Carabao (named after the mud-loving water buffalo) was founded in 1900 by American officers fighting in the Philippines, so naturally there will be a lot of singing and cigar smoking by the 99.9 percent male crowd. Recent guests have included Colin Powell and General Richard B. Myers, current chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and many of the country's top military leaders are listed as members. (You have to be an officer to even be considered for membership.)

One day, two monks were in the vaults of the monastery going through the old
scrolls.
"You see, there are the originals," said the first monk. "All the new scrolls
were copied from these."
"Can I see one?"
"Sure. This is one outlines the rules for monkdom--"
All of a sudden, the monk's face turns white and he falls to his knees.
"What? What does it say?"
"Celebrate. IT SAYS CELEBRATE!" |

Gees! Where do I start?
'My' band was formed in the 1980's so haha, I doubt that, that group(above) was named AFTER mine. However, the leader of the band did study in the Philippines so I think that's how he choose the name. There's a lot more to it than that but thanks for asking.
Carabao Forever!
If you want to hear what they sound like, email me personaly, we'll get you a sample for your listening pleasure. |

An Englishman, a Scottsman and an Irishman walk into a pub and order a round of pints. When the drinks arrive, each man has a fly in his beer.
The Englishman promply requests a new pint.
The Scottsman removes the fly and begins to drink.
The Irishman grabs the fly, and shaking it violently, shouts, "SPIT IT OUT, YA WEE BASTARD!!" |
