Only In A Stupid World
« on: April 27, 2016, 07:54:02 am »
Only in a stupid world do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in a stupid world do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet Coke.

Only in a stupid world do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

Only in a stupid world do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
                   
Only in a stupid world do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

Only in a stupid world do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes?  Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of Progress?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

There are some real good ones in that list!
I've heard some of them before but they still bring a chuckle anytime and gives one cause to pause and think a bit.

This one is a true one, I forgot to add it to the list in the previous post.

I had a stint in hospital in 2009....The nurse woke me up to give me my sleeping pill. Go figure.

I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a.replacement.

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

 There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead.

Life is a sexually transmitted disease.

Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.

Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird, now they take prozac to make it normal.

How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?"

Who was the first person to say, "See that chicken there? I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta its butt."

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?

Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?
