One Liners

[TehBorken]

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realised that The Lord doesn't work that way, so I stole one and asked him to forgive me.

I've often wanted to drown my troubles, but I can't get my wife to go swimming.

I was doing some decorating, so I got out my step-ladder. I don't get on with my real ladder.

Well I was bullied at school, called all kinds of different names. But ne day I turned to my bullies and said - 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me', and it worked! From there on it was sticks and stones all the way.

My Dad used to say 'always fight fire with fire', which is probably why he got thrown out of the fire brigade.

Sex is like bridge: If you don't have a good partner, you better have a good hand.

I saw six men kicking and punching the mother-in-law. My neighbour said "Are you going to help?" I said "No, Six should be enough."

I think animal testing is a terrible idea; they get all nervous and give the wrong answers.

You know that look women get when they want sex? Me neither.

Politicians are wonderful people as long as they stay away from things they don't understand, such as working for a living.

Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.

So I was having dinner with Garry Kasparov and there was a checked tablecloth. It took him two hours to pass me the salt.

So I rang up British Telecom, I said "I want to report a nuisance caller",he said "Not you again".

Four fonts walk into a bar The barman says "Oi - get out! We don't want your type in here".

A priest, a rabbi and a vicar walk into a bar. The barman says, "Is this some kind of joke?".

A sandwich walks into a bar. The barman says "Sorry we don't serve food here".

Take my wife...please, as if you'd have a clue what to do with her.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]9. Those Klingons sure are friendly...honestly...it was the pleasantest mob I ever lost a tooth in.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]8. I just got back from Vulcan, and whew! It was so hot...the settings on my phaser wouldn't go below "fire."[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]7. Boy, it's really crowded on Gideon these days. You sneeze, and there's a tidal wave headed for the southern continent.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]6. I'm not saying the girls on Risa aren't as pretty as they used to be. I'm just saying they've moved the training camp for Medusan Ambassadors to the Risan "House o' Pleasure."[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]5. I hear the new Minister of the Treasury is a Ferengi, and we're about to have a Skrian president of the Federation. Now, I'm not saying times are tough, but it's a toss-up whether we're about to be exploited or exfoliated.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]4. I don't understand the Nausicaans. They're always so angry. What's the point? Nothing's worth getting so worked up about...I mean, outside of golf.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]3. The Dominion War sure has everyone on edge. I heard the Head of the Klingon High Council even hired some bodyguards, and that was just to protect the family bat'tleh.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]2. Now, don't everyone run out of the room at once, but I hear there's a female Horta outside, and she's really burning up the place.[/FONT]  [FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=-1]1. Boy, competition in the job market sure is fierce these days. The other day I started filling out an application at Burger King, and I swear I heard voices betting quadloos[/FONT]

After just FINALLY finishing up painting our workshop, this one appeals to me....(another Steven Wright)

WC Fields......

  I like to keep a bottle of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy."

[weird al]

Was it WC who said "It was a woman that drove me to drink. I must remember to call and thank her." ?

  3 more of my faves from Handy...

   [FONT face=Arial size=2] Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.

 To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit each other.

 We used to laugh at Grandpa when he'd head off and go fishing, but we wouldn't be laughing that evening when he'd come back with some whore he picked up in town.

 

[/FONT][/DIV]

[P.C.]

It was WC indeed.  His humour goes best with that sing-song drawl of his.

  ....another Handy classic

  Laurie got offended that I used the word "puke." But to me, that's what her dinner tasted like.

.....and I have no idea where this one came from, but it was on a birthday card I received once.

  The front read:  I can't believe Hortense actually picked up her cake and ATE it with her FINGERS.  It was SO embarrassing.......(inside)   I laughed so hard, I dropped a whole handful of ice-cream.
