Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

Shouldn't telephone psychics call you first?

I was in the first submarine. Instead of a periscope, they had a kaleidoscope.

Why do Hot Dogs come in packages of 10 and Hot Dog Buns come in packages of 8???

Why is a light switch labeled “On” and “Off”? When its on you know its on. When its off you can’t see to read it anyway!

Why do we drive on Parkways and park on Driveways?

We stretch out our faces to put on mascara in hopes of getting our cheeks away from our lashes until it dries so we don’t end up with little black dots on our faces from the edges of our lashes.

Why do they call it an ‘adult bookstore’?

There is no one reading, and there are no books. Most of the people in there are not grownups.

My kids are in college.

When they ask questions like that, I have learned to ask, “Do you really want to know?” They usually don’t.

Well.....do ya?

Why do they call flights that land at your destination “non-stop?”

Why do they call things in outer space asteroids and things on your @ss hemorrhoids?

Why is asphalt not the name of a rectal problem?

"Why are liberals in favor of killing innocent babies but against killing guilty criminals?"

Because they are mentally ill, not the criminals but liberals

When you open a package of cotton balls, why don't you throw away the first one? When you open anything else, you throw away the cotton ball.

Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

I met the famed psychic, Jean Dixon, on a street in Washington DC when the dogs we were walking stopped to greet one another. She asked, of my dog, "what's her name?" and I had to mightily resist asking the sweet, elderly seer just that question. Heh heh -- YOU tell ME!

Why is the person in charge of a polling place called a clerk and the people working under him or her called managers?

Personally, I make it a point to never ask anything about what a woman is doing or why. But that's just me.
