Down

It’s just that I get nervous about heights.

It always made me wonder when they go to the moon. if they were to land in the southern hemiphere when they return do they have to turn upside down?

A farmer is driving fast on a dusty country road when a Highway Patrolman pulls him over. He notices the Cop is young and says he was speeding, so after handing over his paperwork the farmer asks “Where’s John? He’s been patrolling this area for night onto forever and he’s never given any of us a ticket for driving this fast as long as we slow down when another vehicle is near.” The Cop says “John retired last week and this is my area now. That speed limit sign that says 40 is the law, and I mean to enforce it.”

The Cop has his ticket book out, but al through the encounter there has been a fly getting in has face ad he’s been trying over and over to swat it away. Exasperated he swats again and says “Dadburn fly!” in an angry tone. The Farmer glances over and matter-of-factly says “Circle fly.” The cops says “Circle fly? What’s that? Never heard of it!” as he swats at it again.
The farmer says “You ever see the flies circling around a horses ass? Those are circle flies.” The Cop angrily says in a loud voice “Are you calling me a horses ass? I can arrest you for that!” then the farmer says “Oh no sir, I’d never call you that- not at all” then pauses for a moment and says “but you can’t fool circle flies.”

I dont think I posted this before…

One to tell your kids/3rd graders…or something

How to catch a polar bear (feel free to change the animal, but I heard it as polar bear)

First, go out on a frozen lake get a saw and cut a nice, polar bear sized hole in the ice.
Next, get a bag of peas, open it, and carefully line the peas all around the hole.
Now wait…

When the polar bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice-hole. :smiley:

Solar Panel Placement

Getting the utility people to run transmission lines to Earth is expensive, but it will pay for itself in no time.

What to Do

FYI: The ‘drop, cover, and hold on’ advice only applies to earthquakes. If you encounter a mountain lion, you should absolutely not drop to the ground, crawl under it, and hold on to one of its legs.

Not a joke

Okay, maybe it’s late or something, but I totally don’t get it.

(Is it just me?)

I don’t get it either.
It seems like a picture that artificial intelligence (without a sense of humor) would come up with. :thinking:
I did some research, and meat glue does not contain gluten, but that doesn’t explain much.
Also, if someone is not allergic to gluten, there is no real reason for them to avoid gluten, so the whole gluten-free movement is misguided for the vast majority of the population. :slightly_smiling_face:

To be fair, Pepperoni Hug Spot was hilarious…

…in a disturbing sort of way.

Hmm…
I just watched Pepperoni Hug Spot for the first time.
Creepy! :open_mouth:

Yup, just plain weird. Enough so that I could not find any humor in it.

For all those still caught up in the peak of inflated expectations about “AI” (lol) and machine learning, welcome to the trough of disillusionment.

Perseids Pronunciation

When speaking out loud, you can can call it the ‘Perseids meatier shower’ and no one will ever know. (If you do get caught somehow, just tell them to Google the ‘Kentucky meat shower’ and that will distract them while you escape.)

Sadly, if you go to certain, shall we say “Ethnic” markets, (I found such in Hawaii) there are things you will come across with bad English translations that are very similar to Pepperoni Hug Spot.

“Happy Burger” was one of my favorites, on some kind of candy…thing, and this was 20 years ago

Yeah, but where else can you see an old dewd making a steaming-hot pizza, only… no pizza, and no hands?

Or the delivery dewd handing off a pizza… to no one?

It’s a hoot!

Oldie but a goodie:
The CIO of a major firm was being “forcibly” retired, but was on amiable terms with his replacement, who asked the now ex-CIO if he had any advice.
On his way out, he said "here, I wrote you two numbered letters. Don’t open them now. If things go bad (and they always do in this business), open the first letter.
When things get EXTREMELY bad and you can’t think of any other way out, open the second letter.

After several years, sure enough, things got real bad, so he opened the first letter. It was only one sentence, which read “Blame everything on me”. So he did, crisis averted.

A few years go by, and sure enough, things go to pot, and he doesn’t know what the H to do, so he opens the second letter.

Again, just one sentence…

“Write two letters.”

All the best,
Aaron
