Telling a lie

John was a salesman’s delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmick. His wife Marsha had long ago given up trying to get him to change. They lived in one of these steel buildings just because someone had told him it was a great idea. Anyway. one day John came home with another one of his unusual purchases. It was a robot that John claimed was actually a lie detector.

It was about 5:30 that afternoon when Tommy, their 11 year old son, returned home from school. Tommy was over 2 hours late.

“Where have you been? Why are you over 2 hours late getting home?” asked John.

“Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit project,” said Tommy.

The robot then walked around the table and slapped Tommy, knocking him completely out of his chair.

“Son,” said John, “this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you really were after school.”

“We went to Bobby’s house and watched a movie.” said Tommy.

“What did you watch?” asked Marsha.

“The Ten Commandments.” answered Tommy.

The robot went around to Tommy and once again slapped him, knocking him off his chair once more.

With his lip quivering, Tommy got up, sat down and said, “I am sorry I lied. We really watched a tape called Sex Queen.”

“I am ashamed of you son,” said John. “When I was your age, I never lied to my parents.”

The robot then walked around to John and delivered a whack that nearly knocked him out of his chair.

Marsha doubled over in laughter, almost in tears and said, “Boy, did you ever ask for that one!

You can’t be too mad with Tommy. After all, he is your son!”

With that the robot immediately walked around to Marsha and knocked her out of her chair.

Johnny goes to third grade

A first grade teacher was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asks, “Johnnie! What is your problem?!”

Johnnie says, “I’m too smart for the first grade, all we do here is play with toys. My sister’s in the third grade and I’m smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third grade!”

The teacher had had enough. As a result, she took Johnnie to the principal‘s office and explained Johnnie’s request.

While Johnnie waited in the outer office, the teacher explained the situation to the principal. The principal told Johnnie’s teacher that he would give the boy a test and if Johnnie failed to answer any of the special questions he was to go back to the first grade and behave.

The teacher agreed. Johnnie was brought into the room. The principal told Johnnie his terms and Johnnie agreed.

Principal: “What is 3 x 3?”

Johnnie: “9”

Principal: “What is 6 x 6?”

Johnnie: “36”

Principal: “What is 9 x 9?”

Johnnie: “81”

And so it went with every question the principal thought a third grader should know.
Johnnie appeared to have a strong case. The principal looked at the teacher and told her, “I think Johnnie can go on to the third grade.”

The teacher, knowing Little Johnnie’s tendency toward sexual wisecracks, said to the principal, “Let *me* ask him some questions before we make that decision?”

The principal and Johnnie both agreed, Johnnie with a sly look on his face.

The teacher began by asking, “What does a cow have 4 of that I have only 2 of?”

Johnnie: “Legs.”

Teacher: “What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?”

The principal’s eyes open wide! Before he could stop Johnnie ‘s expected answer, Johnnie said, “Pockets.”

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, “I think we should put Johnnie in the fifth grade. I missed the last two questions myself!”

Divorced Barbie

A man walks into a store looking to buy a gift for his daughter. He passed over the John Deere toys and settled on the Barbie toys. “How much is that Barbie?”, he asks the shop assistant.

In a manner she responds, “Which Barbie? We have Barbie Goes to the Gym for $19.95, Barbie Goes to the Ball for $19.95, Barbie Goes Shopping for $19.95, Barbie Goes to the Beach for $19.95, Barbie Goes Nightclubbing for $19.95, and Divorced Barbie for $395.00.”

The guy asks, “Why is Divorced Barbie different from all the others?”

“That’s obvious,” the assistant states, “Divorced Barbie comes with Ken’s house, Ken’s car, Ken’s boat, Ken’s furniture…..”

Insurance Quotes

Four insurance companies are in competition trying to prove who has the best insurance rates. One comes up with the slogan,

“Coverage from the cradle to the grave.”

The second one tries to improve on that with,

“Coverage from the womb to the tomb.”

Not to be outdone, the third one comes up with,

“From the sperm to the worm.”

The fourth insurance company really thought hard and almost gave up the race, but finally came up with,

“From the erection to the resurrection.”

Hitched

Marriage is not a word. It is a sentence (a life sentence!).

Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor’s Degree and the woman gets her Masters.

Marriage is a thing which puts a ring on a woman’s finger and two under the man’s eyes.

Marriage requires a man to prepare 4 types of “RINGS” :
– The Engagement Ring
– The Wedding Ring
– The Suffer-Ring
– The Endue-Ring

Married life is full of excitement and frustration :
– In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens.
– In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.
– In the third year, they BOTH speak and the NEIGHBOURS listen.

Getting married is very much like going to the restaurant with friends. You order what you want, and when you see what the other fellow has, you wish you had ordered that.

It’s true that all men are born free and equal – but some of them get MARRIED!

There was this man who muttered a few words in the church and found himself married. A year later he muttered something in his sleep and found himself divorced.

Son: Is it true? Dad, I heard that in ancient China, a man doesn’t know his wife until he marries. Father: That happens everywhere, son, EVERYWHERE!

There was a man who said, “I never knew what happiness was until I got married…. and then it was too late!”

Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock.

When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a ten-year married man looks happy, we wonder why.

There was this lover who said that he would go through hell for her. They got married, and now he is going through HELL.

They say that when a man holds a woman’s hand before marriage, it is love; after marriage it is self-defence.

At the cocktail party, one woman said to another, “Aren’t you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?” The other replied, “Yes I am, I married the wrong man.” (Pity it wasn’t one of those benchmark rings)

Man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is really finished.

A little boy asked his father, “Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?” And the father replied, “I don’t know, son, I’m still paying for it.”

A happy marriage is a matter of give and take; the husband gives and the wife takes.

After a quarrel, a wife said to her husband, “You know, I was a fool when I married you.” And the husband replied, “Yes, dear, but I was in love and didn’t notice it.”

It doesn’t matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss.

A man inserted an ‘ad’ in the classifieds: “Wife wanted”. Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: “You can have mine.”

Where jewellery comes from

One afternoon a little girl returned home from school and announced that her friend had told her where babies come from.

Amused, her mother replied: “Really sweetie, why don’t you tell me all about it?”

The little girl explained, “Well…Okay…the Mommy and Daddy take off all of their clothes, and the Daddy’s thing sort of stands up, and then the Mommy puts it in her mouth, and then it sort of explodes, and that’s how you get babies.”

Her Mom shook her head, leaned over to meet her eye to eye and said, “Oh honey, that’s sweet, but that’s not how you get babies. That’s how you get jewellery.”

(Pity mens jewelry doesn’t come the same way)

Two Swedish girls …

One afternoon two Swedish sisters go into a photo place to get their picture taken. They were considering setting up a website using live video streaming services but wanted to see what they looked like in a photo first. Not being very educated, they question each other on what the photographer is doing.

When the photographer goes under the black cloth, one sister turns to the other and asks, “Vot’s he goink to do?”

Her sister answers,” He’s goink to focus!”

The second sister cries,” Bot of us?”

How to detect a mental deficiency

A noted psychiatrist was a guest at a blonde gathering, and his hostess naturally broached the subject in which the doctor was most at ease. “Would you mind telling me, Doctor,” she asked, “how you detect a mental deficiency in somebody who appears completely normal?”

“There are a number of techniques from multi-factor analysis to detailed observation; but there’s one way that never fails,” he replied. “You ask a simple question which anyone should answer with no trouble. If he hesitates, that puts you on the track.”

“What sort of question?”

“Well, you might ask him, ‘Captain Cook made three trips around the world and died during one of them. Which one?’

The blonde thought a moment, then said with a nervous laugh, “You wouldn’t happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don’t know much about history.”
