Paraprosdokians are figures of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected and is frequently humorous. (Winston Churchill loved them).

1. Where there’s a will, I want to be in it.

2. The last thing I want to do is hurt you ... but it’s still on my list.

3. Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

4. If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.

5. We never really grow up — we only learn how to act in public.

6. War does not determine who is right, only who is left.

7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

8. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.

9. I didn’t say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.

10. In filling out an application, where it says, “In case of emergency, notify... “ I answered “ a doctor.”

11. Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy.

12. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute
to skydive twice.

13. I used to be indecisive, but now I’m not so sure.

14. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

15. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian, any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

16. You’re never too old to learn something stupid.

17. I’m supposed to respect my elders, but it’s getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

Some wisdom
Senility has been a smooth transition for me.

A recent study has found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than men who mention it.

My goal for 2015 was to lose just 10 pounds. Only 15 to go

I think I’ll just put an “Out of Order” sticker on my forehead and call it a day.

People who debate whether the wine glass is half empty or half full miss the point. It’s refillable!

The way I release a cougar is to stop buying them drinks.

And on that cat note:

A farmer's daughter had a city boy for her new beau. His first time out to the farm he brought a bucket of fried chicken and was shocked to see how the place was wide open with farm critters just wondering freely about the house & grounds.
Having a seat in the living room while waiting on the dinner table to be set he saw a cat come in the front door. While everyone was busy he figgered he'd have a little fun teasing the family tabby with a chicken leg.

A few minutes later, the family heard an awful racket and screaming in the living room. The farmer went quickly to investigate. He arrived just as the "tabby" was exiting the house with the chicken leg and the new beau was standing there in tattered clothing, quite bloodied.
The new beau told the farmer what happened and the farmer sez "Well boy, sorry for your troubles. But next time I'd suggest you NOT mess with that danged Bobcat!"
