Humor is good for the soul

Special Thanks

After 40 hours of work in three days this week, I'm in the mood to laugh. I got this in an e-mail the other day, and I think it's just hilarious. Enjoy!

I just want to thank all of you for your educational emails over the past year. Thanks to you, I no longer open a public bathroom door without using a paper towel. I can't use the remote in a hotel room because I don't know what the last person was doing while flipping through the adult movie channels. I can't sit down on the hotel bedspread because I can only imagine what has happened on it since it was last washed.

I have trouble shaking hands with someone who has been driving because the number one past time while driving alone is picking your nose (although cell phone usage may be taking the number one spot). Eating a Little Debbie sends me on a guilt trip because I can only imagine how many gallons of trans fats I have consumed over the years. I can't touch any woman's purse for fear she has placed it on the floor of a public bathroom. Yuck!

I must send my special thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet sponge with every envelope that needs sealing. Also, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason. I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown) who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time. I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me, and St. Theresa's novena has granted my every wish. I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers. I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day.

Thanks to you, I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes. Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains. I no longer can buy gasoline without taking someone along to watch the car so a serial killer won't crawl in my back seat when I'm pumping gas.

I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr. Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put “Under God” on their cans.

I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer. And thanks for letting me know I can't boil a cup of water in the microwave anymore because it will blow up in my face...disfiguring me for life.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS. I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me. I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise. I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American troops or the Salvation Army. I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica , Uganda, Singapore and Uzbekistan. I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

Thanks to you, I can't use anyone's toilet but mine because a big brown African spider is lurking under the seat to cause me instant death when it bites my butt. And thanks to your great advice, I can't ever pick up $5.00 dropped in the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting underneath my car to grab my leg. I can no longer drive my car because I can't buy gas from certain gas companies!

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM this afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing you to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbor's ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician…

Have a wonderful day….

Happy Anniversary, John Kerry

No, not with Teresa… (Not with Britney either…)

If Only

I know, the day after I post that I won't be here, I find this (strong language warning) over at Rachel Lucas's blog. This was simply too funny to not reblog.

This is a scene from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the faux-news show on Comedy Central. They took a patronizing look at the protesters in Berkeley, California, who are trying to shut down the Marine recruiting center. My favorite exchange comes starting at 3:12…

Code Pink Feather Boa'd Protester (CPFBP) - It is our responsibility, as the public, to shut this station down, to shut this recruiting station down.
Another Code Pink Protester - Code Pink stands for free speech.
CPFBP - It's very important to protect free speech, and so we clearly have the right to be here.
Rob Riggle, Reporter - If only there was an organization that was sworn to defend that free speech!
CPFBP - Wouldn't that be great?
Rob - That would be outstanding, right?

Glow-Bull Warming Comic

There has been a ton of news and evidence about glow-bull warming that has come out in the last few weeks. But, alas, other pulls on my time are keeping me from chronicling them here. I did want to share this comic, though, that I found today in an e-mail.

A snowman looks down at the ground to another snowman who only has a head left, his hat labeled “Global Warming” having fallen off it, making a screaming face, and says “Do you know how silly you look?”

The artist is Lisa Benson, whose work can be found on TownHall.com.

Awesome Bumper Sticker III

I saw this tonight traveling to my Cub Scout meeting…

Hillary - Your village called; it wants its idiot back!

tee-hee…

Overheard on the Run

Last night, I was out for an evening run. I usually run in the mornings, or if not then, in the afternoons before supper. However, I hadn't gotten to it yet, and I needed to run, so I did it. I was struggling - but I was making it. I ran past these two kids playing around a stop sign, and as I passed, I heard one of the kids say…

Wow, look at him go!

I started to feel better… until the reply came from the other kid…

Well, he's not going that fast.

I know I'm not the fastest runner - I'm not even in the top 70%. But… darn it, the kid could have waited until I was out of earshot. :P

Plagiarism Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery II

Another busy time, another installment of “Plagiarism Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery”. See, when we re-blog here, we're honest and up-front. :)

First up is an article about the cost of illegal immigration for Los Angeles County for one month, from radio talk show host and author Neal Boortz. The numbers are staggering.

Next up, a link to a pundit I never thought I'd link to, except as a set up to refute. However, Susan Estrich and I agree on this issue, which she details in "A Weak Moment for Women in Banning Larry Summers". (I don't agree that what he originally said was wrong - but the rest of it is spot-on.)

Via Morgan Freeberg, we have reports that "A Quiet Triumph May Be Brewing". Could it be that we've come up with a way to get most remaining al-Qaeda in the same place, then send them to their 72 virgins (or raisins, depending on the translation)?

And finally, we wrap up with some humor. Rachel Lucas learned to make thought and speech bubbles in PhotoShop, and produced a masterpiece she calls "Three Men and a Hillary". (Language warning in effect for the comments on that post…)

Awesome Propaganda

Check out the Agence France-Presse picture and caption…

A older woman in a black head scarf holds up two bullets, still in their casings

An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her house following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City. At least 175 people were slaughtered on Tuesday and more than 200 wounded when four suicide truck bombs targeted people from an ancient religious sect in northern Iraq, officials said. (AFP/Wissam al-Okaili)

This propaganda is missing one crucial detail. If you don't know, put your mouse over the picture to find out. Even though this is categorized under “funny stuff,” it's more sad than funny.

How NOT to Use PowerPoint

Anyone who has sat through PowerPoint presentations can identify with this guy. This should be required viewing for all people who create these presentations, especially security briefings… (I haven't laughed this hard in a long time!)
