I decided to start a joke discussion because we as caregivers need our load lightened. We need to laugh at our own situations and those of others to take away the sting and pain we go through. If you have a joke that's racy then give a heads up at the beginning of your post for those who might not want to read your post. We need to avoid that kind of humor. Please don't come on this thread and berate anyone for their choices of humor. This is our place to let go of criticism. Thanks for sharing!!!! ;o)
The librarian says, "Sure, what Volume would you like?"
Totally second your comment! No harm done and Send should certainly feel no shame.
It’s great to share humor. Everyone is allowed have their own taste. Less judgement on little things is needed.
Your remark was refreshing to read, Gershun 😊.
because now you don't exist either.
Apparently I am not allowed to have my opinion.
When someone posts scriptures and then post something like that, I think it is a shame.
This is the joke thread right?
Just checking.🤔
I always stop reading as soon as the self-righteous say "You SHOULD................"
It is the joke site. Lots of laughs! Some good, some not to everyone else’s taste.
Hey, good rule of thumb! Stop reading. Always knew that you were a smart woman with tons of wisdom!
Love your sense of humor! 😊
Amen! Jesus has his work cut out for him. Most people believe all are sinners.
Let the one who hasn’t sinned cast the first stone, right? I feel sorry for people who constantly feel the need to judge others, wagging their fingers at everyone...very sad.
Loved your joke! It was funny!
Three dumb blondes are walking on the beach when they find a genie bottle. One picks it up, rubs it, and out pops a Genie.
"Well," says the Genie, I usually give three wishes to the person who finds me, but seeing that there are THREE of you, I can only give you one wish each.
The first dumb blonde says "I am so sick of being called a dumb blonde, and I want to be smarter".
Poof
And the first dumb blonde is now a redhead, and she is quite a lot smarter.
The second dumb blonde pops right up with "Well, I want to be SMARTER than the redhead" and there is a loud poof. And the second blonde is a lovely brunette. And she is smarter than the blonde left, and the redhead as well. With this the third dumb blonde says "Well! I am perfect HAPPY being a dumb blonde and I would like to be even dumber. I would like to be the dumbest thing ever."
There is another loud and smokey poof.
And the Redhead and Brunette look through the smoke at the third dumb blonde.......................................
who is now a man.
There! I fancy I have got myself in trouble with EVERYONE of every gender and shall put myself out for JUDGEMENT!
I would love to be a stand up comic! Joan Rivers did it until her senior years! George Burns did too, along with many others.
I have tons of material that I could use! Hahaha, Some even from this forum! LOL
Some of it is starting to remind me of a ridiculous reality television show! Hahaha Oh well...takes all kinds to make the world go around. 😊
Apparently blondes don't get offended by blonde jokes cause they usually don't get them.😁😂😃
Hey, I just made that one up.
Maybe cause blondes are really smarter and just pretend to be dumb so others don't get jealous.
Very true! It takes a great actress to play a ‘dumb’ blonde!
How many brunettes went blonde? I know Loni Anderson did. Was Marilyn Monroe a brunette as well? When they went blonde their careers skyrocketed!
I have silver hair now but was auburn when younger. A lot of my dad’s family had red hair. Irish ☘️. Mom was a brunette when young.
Gershun, have you ever died your hair another color? I know a few blondes that went red or strawberry blonde and looked great!
The pharmacist at the counter asked the older boy, 'Son, how old are you?'
'Eight', the boy replied.
The man continued, 'Do you know what these are used for?'
The boy replied, 'Not exactly, but they aren't for me. They're for him. He's my brother. He's four."
"Oh, really?" the pharmacist replied with a grin.
"Yes." the boy said. "We saw on TV that if you use these, you would be able to swim, play tennis and ride a bike. Right now, he can't do none of those."
The trend now a day is that it's ok to attack Christianity, but if it was some other religion, like Islam, oh boy, that would not go down well.
I don’t think Sendhelp meant it that way at all. Maybe she didn’t even realize it would offend others when she typed the joke.
Be forgiving it if offended you. 💓 Duly noted but it’s over. Just let it go. No point in chastising her. It’s been addressed.
Actually, all ages offend, and make excuses. Not just five year olds!
I didn’t mean that anyone was excusing anything. Anyone can act in haste and not realize how something will come across. And their sense of humor may be a bit different than others.
Remember Captain, he had a crazy sense of humor!
At 78 I have been in many fox holes including the great cancer foxhole. Never for a moment did I have any belief in anything more than that the tree buds, then blossoms, then withers and falls to nourish the next generation to come.
So I do not consider belief to be really a "choice" but rather something that we do have or we do not have. Almost like a gene for it, or no gene for it. I could no more make myself believe in anything than I could unmake myself if I DID believe. I put no man either up nor down for his faith so long as his faith is one of love, and respect for the faith (or lack of it) of others.
I have known many great leaders of many faiths, and have found them to have a surprising humor. I have known a Catholic priest who comforted Jews in the Concentration (as many Catholic Poles thrown in camps as Jews at the time) camps in the hours of their deaths, and the fact he was a priest was hidden from those who ran the camps, so loved was he. Humor is an interesting thing, and as often based on the hardships and ironies of life as on anything else. Think to doctors and nurses? Theirs is some of the most "uncomfortable" humor you will ever hear (unless you serve in wartime).
I think few means harm. I do not hear the "attacks" you claim on Christianity; I am afraid I often DO hear attacks on other faiths. All faiths are lovely, so long as they don't judge another man by their own beliefs, nor try to control him by their own beliefs. There is the law and there is religion; they best are kept separated, imho. Though not everyone agrees.
And I do have to say, I often find those who espouse great faith to be people who feel the religiosity and self-righteousness allows them to judge another by their own yardsticks. Allows them to judge in place of the master they worship. I don't dislike a whole lot of things, but self-righteousness I find to be fairly unpleasant. And those who sew division. Or hatred. Those to me are the things that are reprehensible. I don't worry about faith at all.
As to what trolls do? I think what trolls do is come to fight, to sew anger and division, to judge, and worst of all to accuse. We all have our own definition of trolls. They are not usually well meaning, generally kind, fun loving and happy people.
I love Monty Python! Funny stuff.
I can't wait to see her face light up when she opens it!
Here’s a Halloween joke.
Know why the skeletons are so calm?
Because nothing gets under their skin. 😊
They are afraid to unwind. 😊
They have no body to love.
