***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***

Posted on 08/08/2014 5:37:32 AM PDT by Lucky9teen

Things aren't always what they appear to be


Everyone seems to be in such a hurry to scream 'prejudice' these days.

A customer asked, "In what aisle can I find the Polish sausage?"

The clerk asks, "Are you Polish?"

The guy, clearly offended, says, "Yes I am. But let me ask you something.

If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?

Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?

Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish?

Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?

Or if I asked for some Irish whiskey, would you ask if I was Irish?"

The clerk says, "No, I probably wouldn't."

The guy says, "Well then, because I asked for Polish sausage, why did you ask me if I'm Polish?"

The clerk replied, "Because you're in Home Depot."


     BACK UP AS FAR AS YOU CAN

 

 

 

 

 

A general noticed one of his soldiers behaving oddly. The soldier would pick up any piece of paper he found, frown and say: “That's not it” and put it down again. This went on for some time, until the general arranged to have the soldier psychologically tested.

The psychologist concluded that the soldier was deranged, and wrote out his discharge from the army. The soldier picked it up, smiled and said: “That's it.”

 

 

 

 


 

Some Things Aren't What They Seen

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

A guy was driving along a country road and noticed a farmer standing in the middle of his field in the pouring rain. He thought he might be in trouble so he stopped his car and went over and asked if he was okay.

The farmer said, "Oh yeah, I'm fine. I'm just trying to win a Nobel prize."

The other guy was really confused. "How exactly?" he asked the farmer.

The farmer answers, "I heard they give it to people who are outstanding in their field."

 

 

 

 

 



 

A while ago a new supermarket opened in Ajax, Ontario.

It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh.

Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of distant thunder and the smell of fresh rain.

When you pass the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and there is the scent of freshly mowed hay.

In the meat department there is the aroma of charcoal grilled steaks with onions..

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens clucking and cackling, and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying.

The bread department features the tantalizing smell of fresh baked bread and cookies.

I don’t buy toilet paper there anymore.Hat tip to Loud Mime

And you thought Nyquil knocked you out. Take a look at the ingredients in this old bottle of cough syrup. It might not cure your cough, but after a swig or two you won't even remember you have one!

Senior Church Moment

A Preacher was explaining that he must move on to a larger congregation that will pay him more.

There is a hush within the congregation. No one wanted him to leave.

Joe Smith, who owns several car dealerships in the City stands up and Proclaims, .. ‘If the Preacher stays, I will provide him with a new Cadillac every year, and his wife with a Honda mini-van to transport their children!’

The congregation sighs in relief, and applauds...

Sam Brown, a successful entrepreneur and investor, stands and says, ‘If the Preacher will stay on here, I’ll personally double his salary, and also establish a foundation to guarantee the college education of all his children!’

More sighs and loud applause.....

Sadie Jones, age 88, stands and announces with a smile, ‘If the Preacher stays, .... I will give him sex!’

There is total silence.

The Preacher, blushing, asks her, ‘Mrs. Jones, whatever possessed you to say that?’

Sadie’s 90 year old husband Jake is now trying to hide, holding his forehead with the palm of his hand, and shaking his head from side to side, while his wife replies, ‘Well , I just asked my husband how we could help,and he said,......’Screw him!’

Isn’t senility great ?

Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth..

Tough $#it, Amigo!

Be careful what you ask for.

A beautiful fairy appeared one day to a destitute Mexican refugee outside an Arizona immigration office.

“Good man,” the fairy said, “I’ve been sent here by President Obama and told to grant you three wishes, since you just arrived in the United States with your wife and eight children.”

The man told the fairy, “Well, where I come from we don’t have good teeth, so I want new teeth, maybe a lot of gold in them.”

The fairy looked at the man’s almost toothless grin and — PING!— he had a brand new shining set of gold teeth in his mouth!

“What else?” asked the fairy, “Two more to go.”

The refugee claimant now got bolder. “I need a big house with big three-car garage in Annapolis on the water with eight bedrooms for my family and the rest of my relatives who still live in my country.. I want to bring them all over here” -— and PING— in the distance there could be seen a beautiful mansion with a three-car garage, a long driveway, and a walkout patio with a BBQ in an upscale neighborhood overlooking the bay.

“One more wish,” said the fairy, waving her wand.

“Yes, one more wish. I want to be like an American with American clothes instead of these torn clothes, and a baseball cap instead of this sombrero. And I want to have white skin like Americans” -—and -— PING — The man was
instantly transformed - wearing worn-out jeans, a Baltimore Orioles T-shirt, and a baseball cap. He had his bad teeth back and the mansion had disappeared from the horizon.

“What happened to my new teeth?” he wailed. “Where is my new house?”

(THIS IS GOOD — NO, ACTUALLY THIS IS VERY GOOD!!)

The fairy said:
“Tough $#it, Amigo, now that you are a white American, you have to fend for yourself.”

“I had another nice chuckle when Obama held a recent fund-raiser and the cost for an individual was $10,000, but $32,000 for a couple.

The question preying on my mind is how many married Democrats were so dumb that they didn’t purchase two single tickets, thus leaving them $12,000 to cover parking, gas and the babysitter.”

We just watched this this week. At first it was curiousity, but then we got into the absurdity of it. LOL Cult Classic?

I've got a T-shirt with a twister & sharks, saying, "I survived Sharknado!"

It's just a continuation of ridiculous, bad movies, thanks to "SyFy!"

IIRC, tomorrow is an encore showing of Sharknado (the original), Sharknado II, followed up by "Sharktopus VS Pteraconda!" Do we live in a great country or what?!?!

I've got to get to the grocery store for popcorn! Between those movies & the Indianapolis MotoGP on Sunday afternoon, I'll be glued to my TV set most of the weekend!

That is so cute - that’s just what my kitty does every morning about a half-hour before the alarm is set to go off.
