Okay we all need a good belly laugh right about now. How about we all find a cute joke and post it?

I'll start and it's a groaner!!

I asked my daughter if she’d seen my newspaper. She told me that newspapers are old school. She said that people use tablets nowadays and handed me her iPad.

The fly didn’t stand a chance.
 
I agree. We all need a little humor. Here is my all time favorite clean joke. :)

How to Bathe a Cat - FLUSH 'N FLUFF
1. Thoroughly clean the toilet.
2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet water, and have both lids lifted.
3. Obtain the cat and soothe him while you carry him toward the bathroom.
4. In one very quick smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids (you may need to stand on the lid so that he cannot escape).
CAUTION: Do not get any part of your body too close to the edge, as his paws will be reaching out for any purchase they can find.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a 'power wash and rinse' which I have found to be quite effective.
6. Have someone open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no people between the toilet and the outside door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The now-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself.

Sincerely,

The Dog
 
This is copied and pasted from the Babylon Bee, a favorite satire site of mine that pokes fun at all sides of a variety of issues.

Local Southern Baptist pastor Pete Harrison resigned in disgrace earlier this week after admitting that he doesn't like eating casseroles.
The scandal unfolded after a church congregant unearthed comments made by Harrison in a recorded sermon over 10 years ago, in which Harrison said he preferred "something healthy like a nice garden salad" to "fatty, unhealthy casseroles."


Dozens of angered church members stormed Harrison's home with pitchforks and torches hastily assembled out of the church's unused front pew, demanding answers. The pastor emerged, frightened and sheepish, and made a statement.

"I apologize to all those I've hurt," he mumbled as several elderly church ladies began fashioning a Molotov cocktail to throw through his window. "It's clear to me now that I'm unfit for ministry. Please accept my resignation, and for the love of all that is holy, don't hurt me!"

The church members reportedly backed down after Pastor Pete began handing out coupons for 15% off a Golden Corral lunch or dinner to quell the uprising.

Harrison is weighing his options but will likely end up back in ministry at a salad-friendly denomination such as the PCUSA or the Unitarian Universalists.

Romantic Text Message
An elderly couple had just learned how to send text messages on their cell phones.

One afternoon, the wife, who was the romantic one in the relationship, decided to send her husband this text message:

If you are sleeping, send me your dreams.
If you are laughing, send me your smile.
If you are eating, send me a bite.
If you are drinking, send me a sip.
If you are crying, send me your tears.
I love you."

The husband texted back to her:

"I'm on the toilet. Please advise."

No problem.... She had probably been putting up with ‘said’ s.....for a long time. (RE: he was not the romantic )

Hope I didn’t overstep the bounds. Let me know.

10. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

I literally JUST GOT THIS. I always took it literally, as in, if you throw a piece of fruit it flies like a banana would fly. I thought the humor was that it was such a nonsensical statement.

But now I actually get the pun - Fruit flies (the insect) like (enjoy) a banana.

Sorry, I felt the need to lay it all out. Just in case I'm not the only one. (please tell me i'm not alone here lol)
 
Teacher: "If I gave you 2 cats and another 2 cats and another 2, how many would you have?"
Johnny: "Seven."

Teacher: "No, listen carefully... If I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how many would you have?"
Johnny: "Seven."

Teacher: "Let me put it to you differently. If I gave you two apples, and another two apples and another two, how many would you have?"
Johnny: "Six."

Teacher: "Good. Now if I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how many would you have?"
Johnny: "Seven!"

Teacher: "Johnny, where in the heck do you get seven from?!"
Johnny: "Because I've already got a freaking cat!"
 
Now this is my kind of thread...

Given the obligation of many Spanish families to keep their children at home in view of the coronavirus crisis, these tender, loving youngsters are doing everything possible to entertain and help their parents. Here are some photos of the adorable little darlings:

Anyone into really random humor?

It's red and really bad for your teeth
- a brick

It's green and brown and when it falls from a tree onto your head it'll most likely be fatal
- a pool table

It's green but it doesn't weigh much
- light green

Why isn't johnny able to swim?
- johnny's a rock.

Sorry I know these are too absurd for most but I enjoy them
 
Some days it pays to be naturally grey. Like the lack of fighting to get into the salon when this is over. I don't do the fake nails, either.

I decided to never color my hair. (Mostly don’t care, hate wasting time; cut my own anyway w/ thinning shears). Got scalped by surgeon from a teeny but malignant pimple. Research & practice making my own safer shampoo bar w/hair loving oils. Use jojoba to condition. Love your natural color, don’t worry what others think.
