Flu You JOW #901



It is flu season and this has been a bad one.  With flu in mind I came up with some jokes and quotes about illness in general and the flu in specific.  I do hope none of you get the flu as it is no fun and can be very serious. Plus you have to put up with everyone asking you, ‘Why didn’t you get a flu shot, you dummy.”  Stay healthy, and I hope you will find some of these amusing.

“Being ill is one of the greatest pleasures of life, provided one is not too ill and is not obliged to work until one is better.” Samuel Butler

Bombeck’s rule of Medicine: Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died.

A sick patient asked his doctor, ''Flu?''
The doctor replied, ''No, I came on my Mercedes actually.''

If a doctor treats your cold, it will go away in seven days. If you treat it yourself, it will go away in a week, if you do nothing at all, it will last half a fortnight.

“Doctor, I’m surprised to hear you say that I am coughing very badly, because I have been practicing all night.”

I need to do another knock knock JOW.  Here is one for the flu.
Knock knock

Occult who?
Occult and flu season is upon us.

A woman called her parents on the speaker phone so she could talk to them both at the same time.  When she told them her husband had the flu her father chimed in:
“Have to tried euthanasia?”
And in the background her mother yelled, “For the last time, it’s Echinacea!”
“”””””””””””””””””
Some men are coming down with the so-called Man flu.
Definition

A Chuck Norris Flu joke:
The flu has to get Chuck Norris vaccinations.

Two factory workers are talking.
The woman says, “I can make the boss give me the day off.”
The man replies, “And how would you do that?”
The woman says, “Just wait and see.” She then hangs upside-down from the ceiling.
The boss comes in and says, “What are you doing?”
The woman replies, “I’m a light bulb.”
The boss then says, “You’ve been working so much that you’ve gone crazy. I think you need to take the day off.”
The man starts to follow her and the boss says, “Where are you going?”
The man says, “I’m going home, too. I can’t work in the dark.”

Two boys were arguing when a politician entered the room.
The politician says, “Why are you arguing?”
One of them answers, “We found a ten dollar bill and decided to give it to whoever tells the biggest lie.”
“You should be ashamed of yourselves,” said the politician, “When I was your age I didn’t even know what a lie was.”
The boys looked at each other and handed the ten dollars to the politician.

Did you ever wake up, kiss the person sleeping next to you, and just feel glad to be alive?  I did, and apparently will not be allowed on that airline again.

A guy had been feeling down for so long that he finally decided to seek the aid of a psychiatrist.
He went there, lay on the couch, spilled his guts then waited for the profound wisdom of the psychiatrist to make him feel better.
The psychiatrist asked him a few questions, took some notes then sat thinking in silence for a few minutes with a puzzled look on his face.
Suddenly, he looked up with an expression of delight and said, “Um, I think your problem is low self-esteem. It is very common among losers like you.”

An eighty year old man went to a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, she said he was doing fairly well for his age.
A little concerned about that comment, he couldn't resist asking her, 'Do you think I'll live to be 85?'
She asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?'
'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'
Then she asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?'
'I said, 'No ... My former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!'
'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?' 
No, I don't,' he said.
She asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have sex?'
'No,'
She looked at him and said, 'Then why do you care?’

And finally, this pertinent quote from an old friend.
”The reason why they call them selfies is that they can’t spell narcissist.”
