(Doesn't have to be gay jokes... just funny.)
Q: How do you get 20 Canadians out of your swimming pool?
A: You say, "Excuse me, but could you all please get out of my pool?"

The following bit over at EM made me laff...
Quote:
The EM news forum is purdy blank today, which reminds me of this little exchange, cited by Anthony Burgess in 1985, between Evelyn Waugh (writing as a foreign correspondent in Abyssinia) and his editor:
Editor - WHY UNNEWS
Waugh - UNNEWS GOODNEWS
Editor- UNNEWS UNJOB
Waugh - UPSTICK JOB ASSWISE

I just discovered a hilarious video on YouTube. Apparently monkeys on a Caribbean resort island developed a taste for alcohol from eating fermented fallen fruit. They now raid the drinks of people at resorts on those islands. The video can be found here.

The Ultimate Rejection Letter
Herbert A. Millington
Chair - Search Committee
412A Clarkson Hall, Whitson University
College Hill, MA 34109
Dear Professor Millington,
Thank you for your letter of March 16. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me an assistant professor position in your department.
This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.
Despite Whitson's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore, I will assume the position of assistant professor in your department this August. I look forward to seeing you then.
Best of luck in rejecting future applicants.
Sincerely,
Chris L. Jensen

GEOGRAPHY OF A WOMAN
Between 18 and 22, a woman is like Africa , half discovered, half wild, naturally beautiful with fertile soil.
Between 23 and 30, a woman is like America , well developed and open to trade, especially for someone with cash.
Between 31 and 35, a woman is like India , very hot, relaxed and convinced of her own beauty.
Between 36 and 40, a woman is like France , gently aging; but still warm and a desirable place to visit.
Between 41 and 50, a woman is like Great Britain , With a glorious and all conquering past.
Between 51 and 60, a woman is like Yugoslavia , lost some wars, won some great battles but haunted by past mistakes, still very strong and proud.
Between 61 and 70, a woman is like Russia , very wide and borders are now largely un-patrolled.
After 70, she becomes Tibet ... Off the beaten path, with a mysterious past and the wisdom of the ages...still desirable but only those with an adventurous spirit and a thirst for spiritual knowledge and true love dare visit there.
GEOGRAPHY OF A MAN
Between 1 and 78, a man is like Iran - ruled by a dick. |
