Automotive JOW #1110

I get ideas for jokes in all sorts of places, even while on the freeway.  Interstate electronic bulletin boards sometimes put up Silver Alerts for missing elderly people.  Usually it is something sort of sad and pathetic like:

                                                 Missing Elderly man

1998 Brown Toyota: license plate: FYI 01D

This means some old geezer has slipped away from the nursing home and has found to keys to his old car

 

I want to see a Silver Alert that says

                                            Missing elderly man last  seen with attractive blonde

2021 Red Ferrari: license plate: 170 MPH

Go gramps, go!

 

That got me thinking about cars so here are a few automotive-related jokes.  Enjoy.

````````

My boss arrived at work in a brand-new Lamborghini.

I said, "Wow, that's an amazing car!"
He replied, "If you work hard, put all your hours in, and strive for excellence, I'll get another one next year".

>>>>> 

A cop stops a miner for speeding on the highway and asks the driver three questions.

COP: Whose car is this? Where are you headed? What do you do?
Miner: mine

<<<<< 

"When one door closes, another opens", he said.

"That's all well and good", the buyer replied, "but until you fix it I'm not buying the car."

^^^^^

What kind of car does Jesus drive? A Christler. Oh no. Wait...He drove a Honda sedan.
But he didn't like talking about it.  As it says in John 12:49: For I did not speak of my own Accord.

^^^^^^^^^

A young boy is listening to the radio in the car with his father. “Dad, what music did you like growing up?”

“I was a huge fan of Led Zeppelin”, the father replies.
“Who?” the son asks.
“Yeah”, the dad responds, “I liked them too.”

=======

What do you call a man with a car on his head? Jack.
+++++
New Teslas don't come with the usual new car smell; it’s more of an Elon Musk.

------

Me: My name is Matt, and I'm an alcoholic.

AAA: This is AAA, not AA.
Me: Yeah, I was just explaining how my car got in the lake.

This one is for Mike

While driving to work, robbers jumped into my car and stole everything.

They were pirates of the car I be in.

 ~~~~~~~

A cop is out on patrol late one evening, and sees a car parked in the local lover's lane, with the windows all steamed up.

He knocks on the driver’s window, and the guy inside rolls it down. The cop sees that there is a guy sitting in the front seat, fully clothed, and a girl in the back seat, also fully clothed.
"What are you up to here, son?"
"Well, officer, I'm reading a magazine, as you can see."
"And what's she doing back there?"
"I think she's playing a game on her phone."
"Have you been drinking tonight?"
"No, sir. I'm only twenty."
"And how old is she?"
The guy looks at his watch and says, "Sir, in eleven minutes she'll be eighteen."

 

A husband sends a text to his wife.

Honey, I got hit by a car outside of the office. Tina brought me to the hospital. They have been taking tests and doing x-rays. I have 3 broken ribs, a broken arm, a compound fracture on my left leg and they may have to amputate the right foot.
Wife's Response:
Who is Tina?

 

As I was paying $500 for a 17 year old escort I thought...

...I'm getting a really good deal on this car.

 

I've already got a car, but I want to have a classic Doc Brown DeLorean as well.

I would drive my first car every day, but only drive the DeLorean from time to time.

 

One day a guy was driving with his young daughter in the van and honked his car horn by mistake.

She immediately turned and looked at him with an expectant look on her face.

Seeing her look at him he said, "I did that by accident."

She replied, "Oh, yes, I guessed that, daddy."

He replied, "How did you know?"

The girl said, "Because you didn't say 'ASSHOLE!' afterwards!"

 

You see, you never really learn to swear until you learn to drive in traffic.

 

A truck with two truckers was had just passed through small town and was driving on the back roads on the way to a slightly bigger town when they came to an overpass with a sign that read CLEARANCE 11'2".

So, they got out and measured their rig. It was 12'3".

"What do you think?" the passenger trucker asked the driver.

The driver looked around carefully, got in the truck and thin shifted into first as he said, "Well, there's not a cop in sight. Let's take a chance!”

>>>> 

One day a guy was looking for a Christmas gift for his daughter.   He walked into a toy store and asked for .A Barbie Doll for my daughter.’

The shop assistant looks at him in a slightly condescending manner and asks, "All right Sir, which Barbie would that be?"

“What kinds do you have?”

"We have Barbie Goes to the Ball at $19.99, Barbie goes Shopping at $19.99, Barbie goes Clubbing at $19.99, Barbie Goes To The Gym at $19.99, Cyber Barbie at $19.99 and Divorced Barbie at $49.99."

The man can't help himself and asks, "Why is Divorced Barbie $49.99 when all those other Barbies are selling for $19.99?"

"Well Sir, that's quite obvious!" says the assistant, "Divorced Barbie comes with Ken's house, Ken's furniture, and Ken's car.”

And finally

 

Once upon a time there were too neighbors, one rich, one poor.  One day the poor man found a magic lamp with a resident genie that would serve the poor man every morning.  Soon the rich man heard about this and invited himself over to the poor man’s house to see if this was true.

Sure enough, the poor man rubbed the lamp, and the genie appeared.  “What do you desire this morning?”
“Tea for me and coffee for my visitor,” said the poor man.

“As you wish,” and ‘poof’ there were two cups of the ordered beverages.
The rich neighbor, envious of the magic lamp, said to the poor man, “I will give you a million dollars for that lamp.”

The poor accepted the deal.
The next morning rich man rubbed the lamp and a genie came smoking out of the lamp and said: “What do you desire this morning."

The rich man asked for two million dollars.

The genie replied, “Sorry sir, I only serve coffee or tea.”

 

Star Nerds JOW #1109

 

It is the start of the Holiday Season beginning with Thanksgiving.  I am thankful for a lot of things.  Things like science fiction and the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises.   Star Wars is a lot of fun, but if I had been a Jedi knight there is a 100% chance I would use the force inappropriately.  I have some themed jokes on the subject, then a few nerdy jokes and eventually I devolve into more or less random jokes.  I hope you enjoy them and are thankful for our many blessing.

Trying to come up with jokes about Star Wars is difficult.  Most of them seem a bit too forced.

Did you know Fozzie Bear was in Star Wars?
He was a Ewokka-wokka!

 

A newbie once accidentally attended a Star Trek convention dressed as Chewbacca from Star Wars. That’s a Wookie mistake!

 

Then there is Star Trek.  I always liked the Next Generation best.  Here are a few things you would never hear the main characters say

Picard: Good work, Counselor. If you hadn't told us those aliens had hostile intent, we would have been completely fooled by their plan"

Crusher: Jean-Luc, since the ship is in no danger at all, and we're not about to die, there's something I want to tell you...

A man went into a seafood restaurant and asked for a lobster tail. The waitress smiled sweetly and said, “Once upon a time there was this handsome lobster…”

Medico JOW #1108

 I consider myself a lifelong learner.  I certainly enjoy learning new things.  I learned two weeks ago, for example, that I needed another stent, which was duly installed.  During my recovery I got to learn all sorts of acronyms like CHD and CHF.  Interesting stuff if somewhat alarming.  I also learned that a cardiologist is not a doctor who brings you cards.  All that got me thinking on the subject of the medical profession.  There is an abundance of humor on that sometimes grim theme.  Here are a few jokes on that theme:

·         Why is the President demanding everyone get vaccinated?  He likes to call the shots.

·         You should look up to surgeons who successfully help people lose weight through liposuction? What they do takes guts.

·         Why does everyone love cardiac surgeons? They touch so many people's hearts.

·         How did a junior surgeon get entry into a prestigious surgical conference? He made the cut.

·         Where do plastic surgeon get all of the new noses from? They buy them from the olfactory.

·         How did your friend's hepatectomy go? We weren't sure that it was going to be successful at first, but thankfully the surgeons de-livered.

·         What did the nurse tell the surgeon when he asked her how the girl who swallowed some coins was doing? ‘We haven't seen any change yet.’

 

Some ‘self-help’ medical jokes

 

Have you heard about that new do-it-yourself orthodontist? Brace yourself

 

My doctor was really supportive when the patient told him that he was going to administer anesthesia to himself before the surgery. He told me to knock myself out.

 

And then the patient demanded that he sew up his own wound? ‘Fine, suture self,’ said the doctor.

 

A doctor come in to see his new patient.  “You tell me you have neurofibromatosis.  Can you please tell me what that is?”

^^^^^^

A doctor was checking his schedule two hours before his shift was over to see how many operations he had left. "Three done, tumor to go", muttered the doctor when he saw the schedule.

 

I've decided to drop the idea of being a cardiac surgeon. I don't have the heart to complete medical school.

^^^^^^

I’d never had surgery, and I was nervous. “This is a very simple, noninvasive procedure,” the anesthesiologist reassured me. I felt better, until he continued … “Heck, you have a better chance of dying from the anesthesia than the surgery itself.”

Before heading off to Mexico on vacation, a woman asked her doctor for medicine to ward off any potential stomach troubles. Instead, the doctor prescribed bottled water and electrolytes, “which have simple sugars and salt.”

She liked that. “Oh, like a margarita?”

 .....

A woman was in the emergency room when a young male nurse came in to ask routine medical questions.

Nurse: Have you ever had a hysterectomy?

Woman: Yes.

Nurse: When?

Woman: 2011.

Nurse: Do you think you could be pregnant?

Woman: Do you think this is the right career for you?

========

Our doctor’s office called to let my husband know that the results from his blood tests came back and he was just fine. That didn’t suit my husband.

“What’s my cholesterol level?” he asked.

“Mr. Crocker, you are just fine,” insisted the nurse.

“Still, I’d like you to mail me the results.”

A few days later, he received a postcard from the doctor’s office. It read, “Mr. Crocker, you are just fine!”

+++++

Phlebotomist: I’m here to draw some blood. 

Patient: But I just received blood yesterday. 

Phlebotomist: You didn’t think you’d get to keep it, did you?

~~~~~

After a checkup, a doctor asked his patient, “Is there anything you’d like to discuss?”

“Well,” said the patient, “I was thinking about getting a vasectomy.”

“That’s a big decision. Have you talked it over with your family?”

“Yes, we took a vote … and they’re in favor of it 9 to 2.

-----

Three guys are fishing when an angel appears and offers healing for them.

The first guy says, “I’ve suffered from back pain for years. Can you help me?”

The angel touches the man’s back, and he feels instant relief.

The second guy points to his thick glasses and begs for a cure for his poor eyesight. When the angel tosses the lenses into the lake, the man gains 20/20 vision. As the angel turns to the third fellow, he instantly recoils and screams,

“Don’t touch me! I’m on disability!”

Some pet medico jokes

The best doctor in the world is the veterinarian. He can't ask his patients what is the matter – he's got to just know.  - Will Rogers

It was time for my dog's annual checkup. Following the vet's instructions, I collected a stool sample and dropped it in a plastic container before we left for his office. When we arrived, I handed the sample to the receptionist, who immediately cracked a smile. The container read "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter."

 

And finally on of my favorite jokes

An elderly man goes in to his clinic for a checkup. After examining him and reviewing his labs, his clinician tells him, ‘Everything is fine, especially for your age.’

‘For my age?’ asks the patient. I am only 71. Do you think I can make it to 90?’

‘Well’, said the clinician, ‘do you drink or smoke?’

‘No’, said the man.

‘Do you eat fatty meat or sweets?’

‘No’, the patient replied. ‘I am very cautious about my diet.’

‘Do you engage in any high-risk behaviors like skiing or sky-diving?’

‘Of course not! I always play it safe.’

The clinician thought a moment. ‘Well, then why in the world would you want to live to be 90?’

 

 

 

 

JOW #1107 Marriage Wars JOW

 We have all heard about, and experienced the battle of the sexes.  Those fortunate enough to be married know that it is a more or less constant conflict; but in a good way – mostly.  Just remember that forty eight percent of all marriages end in IKEA.  

I have included some marital warfare jokes below for your amusement.

~~~~~~~

Marriage is really tough because you have to deal with feelings ... and lawyers. – Richard Pryor

 

I just read that 4,153,237 people got married last year. Not to cause any trouble, but shouldn’t that be an even number? 

 

Husband walks into the room.

Wife- “Well, well, well.  If it isn’t the man who let a snake bite me in my dream last night.”

 

If I have to choose between a husband and shoes, I choose shoes. They tend to last longer and are easier to replace. – Donna B.

 

Be right back.  My wife is in the kitchen and I need to go stand in front of the cabinet she’s about to open.

 

My wife used to use the silent treatment until she learned that I loved it.

 

My wife and I have entered into that part of the relationship where when she says “I need you” it means moving furniture or killing a bug.

 

My wife divorced me recently because I’m a compulsive gambler. All I can think about now is how to win her back.

 

I am not divorcing you.  I am just re-defining your role.

 

What’s the difference between love and marriage? Love is blind and marriage is an eye-opener.

 

Marriage is a three-ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering.

 

My wife came home with an escalator yesterday…she said it was marked down…

 

My wife is always cold, but lately she’s getting hot flashes.  So no matter what the temperature is I’m an asshole.

 

My wife told me that I twist everything she says to my advantage. I take that as a compliment.

 

My husband treats me like a god. He ignores my existence and only talks to me when he needs something.

 

My wife cooks for me like I’m a god—by placing burnt offerings before me every night.

When I see lovers' names carved in a tree, I don't think it's sweet. I just think it's surprising how many people bring a knife on a date.

 

Husband looks at his wife in surprise, "Wow darling, you look all different and nice today! Is that a new hairdo?"
The wife hisses from behind him, "I’m over here, Arnold!"

 

I lent my girlfriend a lot of money for cosmetic surgery a while ago. I’ve been trying to get it back now for weeks.  Problem is, I’ve no idea what she looks like now.

 

When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a ten-year married man looks happy, we wonder why.

 

Wife – “I’m going to Target.”

Husband – “What do you need at Target?”

Wife – “Target will tell me what I need.”

 

A retired rancher decided to go back to school. He made an appointment with the dean of admissions at a university.

The dean asked him, “Are you pursuing a bachelor’s degree?”

The rancher replied, “I want to, but I can’t. I’m still married.”

 

A husband was standing in front of the bathroom mirror one evening admiring his reflection, when he posed this question to my wife of 20 years: “Will you still love me when I’m old, fat, and balding?”

She answered, “I do.” 

 

Marriage counselor – “Okay let’s reflect on last week’s session.

Dracula – “I can’t reflect on anything.”

Dracula’s wife – “Are you even going to try to take this seriously?”

 

Marriage Counselor: So, what brings you here today?

Wife: He takes everything literally.  I can’t stand it.

Husband: (At the same time) My truck.

 

A clairvoyant to a man, “I can see you are the father of 3 kids.”
The man smiles smugly, “No, I have 4 kids.”
The clairvoyant, “That’s what you think.”

 

A husband and a wife are having dinner at a nice restaurant. The woman drops some tomato sauce on her white top. "Oh no, I look like a pig!"
The man nods, "Also, you dropped some tomato sauce on your shirt!"

 

My girlfriend asked me to tell her all my previous girlfriends, chronologically. From beginning to end.
OK. I probably should have finished when I got to her name.

>>>>> 

 

“Will marry me?”
“No.”
Two hours of uncomfortable silence in the hot air balloon.

  (   )    (    )    (    )

           

Darling, I think the new dryer is shrinking my clothes.”
“No, sweetie that was the fridge.”

 

Men 1845: I just killed a buffalo.
Men 1952: I just fixed the roof.
Men 2021: I just shaved my legs.

 

Do you know why women aren’t allowed in space?
To avoid scenarios like: "Houston, we have a problem!"
"What is the problem?"
"Yeah, great, pretend like you don’t know what I’m talking about!"

 

A wife complains to her husband: “Just look at that couple down the road, how lovely they are. He keeps holding her hand, kissing her, holding the door for her, why can’t you do the same?”
The husband: “Are you crazy? I barely know the woman!”

 

My friend Mike had the solution to forgetting his wife’s birthday and their wedding anniversary: He opened an account with a local florist and provided it with both dates as well as instructions to send flowers and a card signed ‘Your loving husband, Mike.’ For a few years, it worked. Then one day, Mike came home on their wedding anniversary. He saw the flowers on the dining room table and said, “What nice flowers. Where did you get them?” 

 

And finally

A weeping woman bursts into her hypnotherapist’s office and declares, “Doctor, I have been faithful to my husband for 15 years, but yesterday I broke that trust and had an affair! The guilt is killing me. I just want to forget that it ever happened!”

The hypnotherapist shakes his head. “Not again …”

Grab bag JOW #1106

I have returned from my Colorado hunting adventure.  Apparently I brought winter back with me as it was cold and rainy all the way back to Texas.  Going over Monarch Pass (11,300 feet) in November was ‘interesting’; it has been a while since I have driven over ice and snow.  I really don’t have a theme for my humor this week, just a bunch a random jokes that I found funny.  I hope you do, too.

_____________

 

I recently took a language class. We learned about oxymorons.  It was a lot of fun; there were a lot of examples:

Rick Astley will let you borrow any movie from his Pixar collection, except one. He’s never gonna give you Up.

What do you call dangerous precipitation? A rain of terror.

“I stand corrected,” said the man in the orthopedic shoes.

I asked my North Korean friend how it was over there, he said he couldn’t complain.

<<<<<< 

Recently I introduced two of my lisping friends to each other.
After a short but rough fist fight they realized that neither was mocking the other one.

A wife goes to consult a psychiatrist about her husband: “My husband is acting so weird. He drinks his morning coffee and then he goes and eats the mug! He only leaves the handle!”
Psychiatrist: “Yes, that is weird. The handle is the best part. “

Late one night, a preacher was driving on a country road and had a wreck. A farmer stopped and said, "Sir, are you okay?"

The preacher said, "Yes, I had the Lord riding with me."

The farmer said, "Well, you better let him ride with me, because you're gonna kill him."

 

‘Ageisms’ from Dick

~The things you used to care to do, you no longer care to do, but you really do care that you don't care to do them anymore.

~You sleep better on a lounge chair with the TV blaring than in bed. It's called "pre-sleep".

~You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch.

~You tend to use more 4 letter words ... "what?"..."when?"... "what?" . ???

~Now that you can afford expensive jewelry, it's not safe to wear it anywhere.

~What used to be freckles are now liver spots.

~Everybody mumbles.

~You have three sizes of clothes in your closet.... two of which you will never wear.

You know you’re getting old when your insurance company sends you half a calendar.

 

I don’t have life insurance because I’m going out of this world the way I came into it… as a burden to my family.

 

Signs of the times

 

Sign on a shoe repair shop window:   

  We will heel you

  We will save your sole

  We will even dye for you.

 

A sign on a blinds & curtain truck:

   “Blind man driving.”

 

Sign over a gynecologist’s office:

   "Dr. Jones, at your cervix.”

 

In a podiatrist's office:

   "Time wounds all heels.”

 

On a septic tank truck:

   “Yesterday’s meals on wheels”

 

At an optometrist's office:

   "If you don't see what you're looking for, you've come to the right place."

 

On a plumber's truck:

   "We repair what your husband fixed.”

 

On another plumber's truck:

    "Don’t sleep with a drip. Call your plumber.”

 

At a car dealership:

    "The best way to get back on your feet - miss a car payment.”

 

Outside a muffler shop:

    "No appointment necessary. We hear you coming.”

 

 At the electric company:

    "We would be delighted if you send in your payment on time.  

      However, if you don't, you will be de-lighted.”

 

In a restaurant window:

    "Don’t stand there and be hungry, come on in and get fed up.”

 

In a radiator shop:

    "Best place in town to take a leak.”

 

An apartment building is on fire and a woman screams out the window for help.
“Just jump out the window,” a man yells. “I’m a baseball player. I can catch you.”
“Wait,” she says. “What team do you play for?”
“The Cincinnati Reds,” shouts the man.
“Ehhhh,” shrugs the woman. “I’ll take my chances with the fire.”

Three farmers were sitting at the local cafe drinking coffee. The subject of the lottery and what they would do if they won came up.
"I think I would take some time off and go on a cruise. I've always wanted to go on a cruise." said the first farmer.
"First thing I would do is buy a fancy sports car. I've always wanted a fast car." said the second farmer.
The third farmer was sitting quietly, fidgeting a little. "Come on, what would you do with your millions?" Asked the other two farmers.
Reluctantly the third farmer answered "I reckon I would just go on farming like I have been until the money runs out."

The CEO at Euro A Bank Ltd got economists thinking when he said:

"A cyclist is a disaster for a country's economy. He does not buy a car and does not take out a car loan. Does not buy car insurance. Does not buy fuel. Does not send his car for servicing and repairs. Does not use paid parking. Does not become obese.
Yes - and he stays well, damn it!! Healthy people are not needed for an economy.
They do not buy drugs. They do not go to hospitals and doctors. They take too long to die, depriving funeral homes of high casket charges. They add nothing to a country's GDP.
On the contrary, every new McDonald's outlet creates at least 30 jobs: 10 cardiologists, 10 dentists, 10 weight-loss experts apart from the people working in the McDonald's outlet.
Walking is even worse.
These people don't even buy a bicycle!!"
