I am tired of reading about all this boring stuff. What kind of car, what do you eat for lunch, where do you go on the weekend.....
Let's get lively -- I need a laugh. No -- I am not looking for jokes.......
How about this? I get an email from a person who lives in the south. Her friend that forwarded the email to her apologized for sending her the email "so late at night".

Stupid signs etc. So, In my apartment building, they are going to do some elctrical work. The front door is magnetically shut until the correct code is pressed (I.E, I use the same sytem at my work) And when there is no electricity, the system has no back up battery. The matienance guys posted signs all over the complex saying..
" AMUE will be putting in a new electrical pole in next week. For this we will make sure this door stays off, so no one gets locked out."
??? Hello???? No SHlT its gonna be off...
That reminds me a of the sign on a door that says "This door must remain closed"
DUH?!?! Then it should be a wall, not a door.

If you want stuff like that how about:
If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?
Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?
What do they mean by "semi-boneless ham"? Does it have a bone there or not?
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?
Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"?
Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?
I've got tons of stuff like that, including labels on products that make no sense, church bulletion bloppers, etc...

Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?
Why is it: we drive on a parkway, and park in a driveway?
How about the sign that says "Hidden Driveway Ahead"
Why did they hide it?

I think they should make a forum for all those people who like to start 3 or 4 topics a day about your cats, what weight oil you use in your car and what size shoe you wear to post to each other!!!
I beginning to think these people start any topic in they can come up with just to raise there numbers or something?
What's next?....Boxers or Briefs?
C'Mon...let's get back to those Funny and Outrageous Tales!!!

Why do convenience stores that are open 24/7 have locks on the doors?

Danrak,
Please don't shoot the mimes. As you know a mime is a terrible thing to waste!
What's next?....Boxers or Briefs?
Boxers...sorry could not resist!
How about those little packets they put in electronics to absorb moisture! "Do not eat" Like I really thought they sent free candy with my hard drive!! Sheesh!

You spend your whole life believing that you're on the right track,

When you boot off a Windows ME cd and configure unallocated hd space, and then it says it is gonna reboot and tells you to make sure the windows ME bootdisk is in the A drive. When windows ME starts shipping with boot disks then I will make sure to do that.

I can't get lost, everyone tells me where to go.
For the Stupid sign department.
I was at Wal-Mart this weekend and I saw a sign that said "Free Hearing Test" Right behind the sign was one of those Salvation Army people ring one of those bells. I almost fell down when I saw it. I will try to get a photo and post it.
l took a great photo on my way up to Binghamton once. l was on the NYS Thruway, and saw one of those signs that says "Your tax dollars at work: we'll be building new roads, adding lanes, blahblah blah we're wonderful..."
Well, right under the part that said "Your Tax Dollars At Work", was 12 guys sitting on their asses drinking coffee (and noone doing any work, besides that one guy sweeping. Why is there always one guy sweeping??). l swerved off the next exit, looped around and got back on just to snap a pic of that. https://forums.windrivers.com/

Label on Dial Soap: Use like any other soap
Clothes iron - remove clothing BEFORE ironing (I actually met someone this warning was targeted at)
Dish Soap - not for food
Washing Machine - remove clothes before washing
Millions more - and the worst part of the whole mess is that all those lables were written to give the legal department an out when people do exactly what the label says not to do!
And now for a few quotes from the master of comedy, Mr. Rodney Dangerfield.
"You guys wanna good laugh? Watch a porno in reverse. You'll see the hooker give the money back!"
"This girl was so wild, when she'd licks the stamp, Elvis smiles!"
"I tell ya, golf courses and cemetaries are the biggest wastes of prime real estate."
"I saved a girl from being attacked the other day - I changed my mind!"

My sister-in-law works for MSN on their phone support system. They said they were expected to be extremely busy on Thanksgiving, so they wanted to be 140% staffed. Now if they can only handle being 100% staffed what did they do with the other 40%?

Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?
Just to continue the trend...
-Can you buy a whole chess set at a pawn shop?
-What do you add to powdered water?
-Why do you put your two cents in, but it is a penny for your thoughts?
-If a man speaks in the woods, and no woman heard him, is he still wrong?
-Why is there Braille instructions at the drive-thru ATM?

Is the damn thing plugged in, is the damn thing turned on?

Quick Joke!!!!
“Last night I made love to my wife four times,” the Frenchman brags, “and this morning she couldn’t stop telling me how much she adored me.”
“Last night I made love to my wife six times,” the Italian replies,” and today she said she could never love another man.”
The American remains silent, and the Frenchman smugly asks, “How many times did you make love to your wife last night?”
“Once,” says the American.
“Only once?” the Italian snorts arrogantly. “And what did she say to you this morning?”
“‘Don’t stop.’”
HEHEHEHH!!!

Sam has been in the computer business for 25 years and is finally sick of the stress. He quits his job and buys 50 acres of land in Vermont as far from humanity as possible. Sam sees the postman once a week and gets groceries once a month. Otherwise it’s total peace and quiet.
After six months or so of almost total isolation, he’s finishing dinner when someone knocks on his door. He opens it and there stands a big, bearded Vermonter. “Names Enoch, your neighbor from four miles over the ridge. Having a party Saturday, thought you’d like to come.”
“Great,” says Sam, “after six months of this I’m ready to meet some local folks. Thank you.”
As Enoch is leaving he stops, “Gotta warn you there’s gonna be some drinkin'.”
“Not a problem. After 25 years in the computer business, I can drink with the best of ‘em.”
Again, as he starts to leave Enoch stops. “More’n likely gonna be some fightin’ too.”
Damn, Sam thinks…tough crowd. “Well, I get along well with people. I’ll be there. Thanks again.”
Once again Enoch turns from the door. “I’ve seen some wild sex at these parties, too.”
“Now that’s not a problem”, says Sam. “Remember, I’ve been alone for six months. By the way, what should I wear?
Enoch stops in the door again and says, “Whatever you want, just gonna be the two of us.”

Sometimes the problem is when people don't do it to themselves, but to others.
My mom works in a hospital, and one time a parent (who was slow) brought her little kid in who was extremely sick. The kid had lice or something (I can't remember exactly). Anyway, the parent had taken the lice shampoo and instead of washing the kid's hair with it, had been feeding it to her. Hadn't read the instructions, or at least not all of them. The little kid almost died. Pretty scary... Read the label!
What's next?....Boxers or Briefs?

I also gave up underwear years ago. My job is restricting enough. I need to be free somehow!
Just the other day had a guy bring in his computer because he couldn't get his floopy drive to work when we tried to put a floppy in there the floppy would not fit so we looked inside the floppy and found there was a set of keys inside the floppy when we showed the guy he said that he had been missing those keys for a month or more
At my previous company, we had a salesman/tech guy who wasn't too bright when it came to computers, but tried to act the part. We had been trying to get a network hub, cards, cables, etc. to get our small office wired together (4 people were in the company). Well, our salesman/tech wanders in one day with a box of network components (read: total trash) that was shipped to him by some guy after he found all of it on E-Bay for about $300. Figuring we could give it a shot since we had nothing better to do that day anyways, we installed the cards, ran the cable, and got the hub situated. Then I realized that we had no power cord for the hub. I looked at the power connector, figured out what we needed, and went up to the store to buy one.
I get back to the office to find that the room is filled with smoke, and there sits the hub in the middle of the room, smashed and covered in coffee with a big black hole burnt through the top of the case. Seems that our salesman/tech/DUMBASS didn't understand the concept of proper voltages and dug out some other connector, plugged the hub in, saw the lights come on and figured it was good to go. After a few minutes, he told me, there was a big bang and he ran out of the other room to find the hub smoking and burning. Worried that it was going to catch the office on fire, he promptly doused it with his mug of coffee, threw it on the ground, and stomped it out. From that point on, he was not allowed to work with hardware anymore.
