Funny

1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2. People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the tv remote because they refuse to walk to the tv and change the channel manually.

3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?

4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

5. When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

6. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.

8. When people say "life is short". What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that's longer?

9. When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?". If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass?

Some people are deaf and point to a watch is universal for wanting to know the time. I like the toilet reference tho.

Because after you sit down you might not want to get up to flip through to other stations. While it would be more exercise, most wont do it. Finding the remote is a more worthwhile use of energy. :p

After you eat your cake you cant have it. It is either one or the other. If you eat it, its eaten and you no longer have it. If you have it and dont eat it then you can continue to have it. Unless you want to get technical and say youll have the cake for another day or so after eating it. :p

Ive wondered that as well. It is a joke. I usually respond. "No it wasnt. I looked 4 other places and it wasnt there so I gave up"

Might mean a specific part in the movie. Above only applies if the person was talking about the movie as a whole.

*shrugs* Generally assumed another will follow. I always say "Yes but that was the only one. No others!" That usually stumps em for a few seconds.

A model of something can be improved. The new model is NEW and an improved version of the old. This wasnt funny at all!

In the grand scheme of things we are only here a blink of the cosmic eye. Make life important cause you dont get a second change. Now if we were immortal then I guess it wouldnt matter. Just a way of saying "Dont waste it away!"

Maybe he meant a prior bus? Busses go different places. *shrugs*


I know I took this waaaaaaaaay too seriously but things on this list about hated people is just the reason we have so much violence in the world! I just have to add one to my list
10: People who dont know the reasoning behind sayings that tend to make jackasses out of others for their own pleasure.

*shrugs*
I was bored. I thought some were funny, some were stupid but entertaining for the time I wrote this. heh I am generally a lighthearted person but lately the worldly events and my own personal affairs are weighing heavily upon me. :(

Your analysis of the joke was about funnier than the joke itself! Something I find humorous is that a couple of times in the past week, people visiting my house will look at me, and then ask something like, "is it okay if I use your restroom?" Not, "may I use your restroom," or "where is your restroom," but, "is it okay?" I tell them, "no, I really rather you used the bushes outside..." haha....

There are a few I find funny as well but I dont quite remember them at the moment.

No joke.....I used to live in the country when I was a teen, and it was a well-earned comfort. It's good clean living, regardless if you're a northerner or southerner (I'm from the north originally, and I've been around northern country people, they're cool). Unfortunately, as of now, I live in the city, but it'll all change soon enough, heheh, but I won't live far enough out to where I can't have the comforts of high-speed internet or city amenities.
