Friday Yuk — New Element Discoverd
Lockedby dryflies · about 16 years, 2 months ago
Ok, its thursday here, but if I don’t do it now the aussies or germans will beat me to it. that better?
A major research institution recently announced the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science, tentatively named administratium. Administratium has 1 neutron 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons and 111 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic weight of 312. The 312 particals are held together by a force called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of peons.

New Element Discovered

That is a very good discovery, I must admit. Now, if we can ever determine how to control the ‘moron’ forces, or the herds of ‘peons’ — oh wait, that is MS mentality

That is a [u]MOST EXCELLENT[/u] joke!
by absolutely · about 16 years, 2 months ago
In reply to Friday Yuk — New Element Discoverd
If I may, “morons” and “peons” sound more like particles than forces, but accuracy doesn’t need to spoil the joke, because real particles are known to [u]mediate[/u] forces. Photons “tell” distant charged particles where other charged particles are, for example. So, when I re-tell this joke, the last sentence will go:
[i]The 312 particles are held together by a force called incompeticity, which is mediated by a filmy puddle of morons surrounded by vast quantities of peons.[/i]
I hope you don’t mind! :^0

Here is an idea that a friend of mine did once
by the scummy one · about 16 years, 1 month ago
In reply to Away from YOU ;)
however you need a comp avail to do it…
He installed PC Anywhere on 2 systems. whenever he wanted to use his ‘main’ system, he would take control of the mouse and jiggle it, or try to mimic his wifes movements with it, and then move it elsewhere as well.
it annoyed her like crazy, so she complained and went to do something else.
then it was all his again.There is much more invisible SW out there these days, and you can probably get it on a pda as well (wouldnt that rock).

At first, I found it annoying that you would criticize or complain about somebody on a technology site displaying knowledge. Then, I noticed that the subject was already physical forces and subatomic particles, before my comment. I just want to salute you for the layers of irony. It’s a rare skill to be able to tell a joke that gets funnier with time, after you deliver the punch line.

I was building irony… yeah, that’s what I was doing, yeah. I think you’re giving me more credit than my meager 141 IQ can accept… either that, or you just think too much.
My favorite example of irony is still a very pregnant 16 year old black high school student named CleShay (all too true).

Original of this (predates August 2005 by some time)
by rick_from_bc · about 16 years, 1 month ago
In reply to That is a [u]MOST EXCELLENT[/u] joke!
A major research institution has recently announced the
discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science.
The new element has been named ?Governmentium.?
Governmentium has 1 neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75
deputy neutrons, and 11 assistant deputy neutrons, giving
it an atomic mass of 312.
These particles are held together by forces called morons,
which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like
particles called peons. Since Governmentium has no
electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected, as it
impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.
A minute amount of Governmentium causes 1 reaction to
take over 4 days to complete, when it would normally take
less than a second.
GOVERNMENTIUM has a normal 1/2-life of 4 years; it
does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in
which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy
neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium?s mass
will actually increase over time, since each reorganization
will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming
isodopes.
This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some
scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed
whenever morons reach a certain quantity in
concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as
?Critical Morass.?
When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes
Administratium – an element that radiates just as much
energy, since it has 1/2 as many peons but twice as many
morons.

Getting screwed

It was a small town and the patrolman was making his evening rounds.
As he was checking a used car lot, he came upon two little old ladies
sitting in a used car.He stopped and asked them why they were sitting there in the car.
Were they trying to steal it?“Heavens no, we bought it.”
“Then why don’t you drive it away.”
“We can’t drive.”
“Then why did you buy it?”
“We were told that if we bought a Used car here we’d get screwed …so

A Chicken, a Horse and a Harley Davidson
by sleepin’dawg · about 16 years, 2 months ago
In reply to Friday Yuk — New Element Discoverd
On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, both of whom loved to play
together. One day the two were playing, when the horse fell into a bog and
began to sink. Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the chicken to
go get the farmer for help!
Off the chicken ran, back to the farm.
Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer, but to no
avail, for he had gone to town with the only tractor. Running around, the
chicken spied the farmer’s new Harley. Finding the keys in the ignition,
the chicken sped off with a length of rope hoping he still had time to
save his friend’s life.
Back at the bog, the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chicken
arrive on the shiny Harley, and he managed to get a hold of the loop of
rope the chicken tossed to him. After tying the other end to the rear
bumper of the farmer’s bike, the chicken then drove slowly forward and
with the aid of the powerful bike, rescued the horse.
Happy and proud, the chicken rode the Harley back to the farmhouse and the
farmer was none the wiser when he returned.
The friendship between the two animals was cemented: Best Buddies, Best
Pals.
A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon, he too,
began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his life!
The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle.
Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his hangy-down thing and
he would then lift him out of the pit.
The chicken got a good grip, and the horse pulled him up and out, saving
his life.

bartender asks, “Tough job, huh? The guy says, “Yeah. All that
inbreeding has led to low intelligence and bad temperaments. And the
dogs aren’t too smart, either.”A man goes into a bar and says, “Give me a drink before the trouble

Another heartwarming joke
by shellbot · about 16 years, 2 months ago
In reply to Three Men on a Hike
Eleven people were hanging on a rope under a helicopter, ten men and one woman. The rope was not strong enough to carry them all, so they decided that one had to leave, because otherwise they were all going to fall.
They weren’t able to designate a person, until the woman gave a very touching speech. She said that she would voluntarily let go of the rope, because as a woman, her role in life is complete. She married a nice, genuine man, gave him four healthy children and raised them to be the strong, independent young adults they are today.S he also said that she was used to giving up everything for her husband and kids, and that this last sacrifice is just a symbol of the many sacrifices she has made for her family and friends throughout her life.
As soon as she finished her speech, all the men started clapping.

OH just to add [b]I is back![/b] No no one ask about the move as [b]SWMBO[/b] is still ranting and raving about missing things which she discovers 3 days latter after driving me nuts looking for things that are not where she insists that they must be. 🙁
Of course they are easily found when not looking for them but [b]SWMBO[/b] likes to get a Bee In Her Bonnet and continue to look when it is blatantly obvious that she will not find whatever it is that she insists must be found NOW! Of course it gives her the chance to abuse me for doing things wrong again and the fact that when found the boxes have her writing on them has no bearing on the situation. 🙁

A woman goes to the doctors and says, “please can you help me, I?ve got three vaginas.”
The doctor says, “OK, let’s have a look then shall we?”. He takes a look and sure enough, the woman has three vaginas.
So he takes a sticking-plaster and puts it on the left one. Then he takes another sticking-plaster and puts it on the right one.
The woman looks confused, “will this make them heal up and go away?”, she asks.
“Oh, no”, he replies, “but it will stop you getting fukt left right and centre”.

When in England at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of empire building’ by George Bush.
He answered by saying, ‘Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return.
You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then there was a conference in France where a number of international engineers were taking part, including French and American. During a break one of the French engineers came back into the room saying ‘Have you heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he intended to do, bomb them?’ A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly: ‘Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck.. We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?’
You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that included Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French Navies. At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large group of Officers that included personnel from most of those countries. Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks but a French admiral suddenly complained that, ‘whereas Europeans learn many languages, Americans learn only English.’ He then asked, ‘Why is it that we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than speaking French?’ Without hesitating, the American Admiral replied ‘Maybe it’s because the Brits, Canadians, Aussies and Americans arranged it so you wouldn’t have t o spe a k German.’
You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AND THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE…
A group of Americans, retired teachers, recently went to France on a tour. Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry on. “You have been to France before, monsieur?” the customs officer asked sarcastically. Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously. “Then you should know enough to have your passport ready.” The American said, “The last time I was here, I didn’t have to show it.” “Impossible. Americans always have to show your passports on arrival in France!” The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained. “Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in ’44 to help liberate this country, I couldn’t find any damn Frenchmen to show it to.”

work or pleasure?

In reply to Great Replies
The C.O.’s Morning Briefing:
The Commanding Officer of a Regiment in the U. S. Marine Corps was about to start the morning briefing to his Staff and Battalion and Company Commanders. While waiting for the coffee machine to finish brewing, he decided to pose a question to all assembled. He explained that his wife had been a bit frisky the night before and he failed to get his usual amount of sound sleep. He posed the question of just how much of sex was ‘work’ and how much of it was ‘pleasure?’
The X.O. chimed in with 75-25% in favor of work.
A Captain said it was 50-50%.
The Colonel’s Aide, a Lt., responded with 25-75% in favor of pleasure, depending on his state of inebriation at the time.
There being no consensus, the Colonel turned to the PFC who was in charge of making the coffee. What was HIS opinion?
With no hesitation, the young PFC responded, “Sir, it has to be 100% pleasure.”
The Colonel was surprised and, as you might guess, asked why?
“Well Sir, began the PFC, “if there was any work involved, the officers would have me doing it for them.”
The room fell silent. God Bless the Armed Services.

A new monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He notices, however, that they are copying from copies, not the original manuscripts. So, the new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this. He points out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies.
The head monk says, “We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son.” So, he goes down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original. Hours go by and nobody sees him. So, one of the monks goes downstairs to look for him. He hears sobbing coming from the back of the cellar, and finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying.
He asks the old monk what’s wrong, and in a choked voice comes the reply…”The word is ‘celebrate.'”

Why men shouldn’t write advice columns

Dear Walter:
I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn?t gone more than a few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband?s help.
When I got home I couldn?t believe my eyes. He was parading in front of the wardrobe mirror dressed in my underwear and high-heel shoes, and he was wearing my make up.
I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years. When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie because he couldn?t find his own underwear. But when I asked him about the make-up, he broke down and admitted that he?d been wearing my clothes for six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him.
He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don?t feel I can get through to him anymore.
Can you please help?
Sincerely,
SheilaReply
Dear Sheila:
A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the jubilee clips holding the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber. I hope this helps.

What?s got one face, one big hand, one small hand, winds up and has stopped working ? Jeremy Beadle
NEWSFLASH!! It is now believed that Jeremy Beadle had a small hand in his own death
Jeremy Beadle?s family have asked that rather than holding a minutes silence at his funeral, mourners should just give him a big hand
After Jeremy Beadle?s funeral, his family will be holding a wake, where food will be available ? nothing too lavish, just a small finger buffet
Jeremy Beadle R.I.P. Time of death 19.00 ? the big hand was on 12, and the little hand on 7
Jeremy Beadle?s last request was that his remains be recycled into compost and scattered on his garden. ITV sources say he could be back late Summer with ?Watch out, Beadle?s a sprout.?

I didn’t particularly want to see the Beadle ones. I had a whole bunch in my email that I deleted unread. Poor guy had cancer – cured – then leukaemia – cured – then died of pneumonia at the age of 59. All this on top of the life-long illness that gave him a shrunken right side and hand.
Despite this lot, he always came over as a really nice guy who made crap TV programmes. I used to listen to him on his Talk Radio programme when I was out driving and thought he did a good show.
What surprises me is why anyone would post such mindless crap but what really is strange is why anyone would post it on a website where 95% of the readers wouldn’t even understand it!

In reply to Kinda funny, kinda not.
It’s all for the same reason that coffee from the drive through has to be labeled, “Caution, Hot”, and a hair dryer has to have a label warning against using it in the shower. Because someone had to find a reason to sue. Yes, we need to provide accessibility for the differently abled, but let’s be reasonable about it. Why do they provide Braille signs in the bookstore that I frequent that does not provide braille books, but the same bookstore does not have automatic doors that someone using a wheelchair or crutches has a difficult time opening?

We should let the blind make their own sign. Give them some independence and show our support. Just need to make sure they are all facing the right way though. Wow… I am so non pc any more. :p

Mistaken identity…
by boxfiddler · about 16 years, 1 month ago
In reply to Friday Yuk — New Element Discoverd
A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him. She says hello.
He’s rather taken aback because he can’t place where he knows her from. So he says, “Do you know me?”
To which she replies, “I think you’re the father of one of my kids.”
Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, “My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???”
She looks into his eyes and says calmly, “No, I’m your son’s teacher.”

One day the teacher asked her students to use the word
“contagious” in a phrase.Sarah lifts up her hand and says, “Teacher, teacher I got one!!”
“A cold is contagious!”The teacher is very happy.
Tommy lifts up his hand and says,
“Teacher… yawning is contagious”…“That’s pretty good Tom!!
Finally, little Johnny lifts up his hand and says,
” Oh…Oh…I got one…The other day, as my mother was mowing the lawn, my father looked out the window and said it will take that contagious to finish!!”

Ok, a dumb blonde joke
by the scummy one · about 16 years, 1 month ago
In reply to Friday Yuk — New Element Discoverd
I ran across this, and thought to share. I know, it is bad, but deal with it!
The Blonde Cookbook
It’s fun to cook for Tom. Today I made angel food cake. The recipe said beat 12 eggs separately. The neighbors were nice enough to loan me some extra bowls.
Tom wanted fruit salad for supper. The recipe said serve without dressing. So I didn’t dress. What a surprise when Tom brought a friend home for supper
A good day for rice. The recipe said wash thoroughly before steaming the rice. It seemed kind of silly but I took a bath anyway. I can’t say it improved the rice any.
Today Tom asked for salad again I tried a new recipe. It said prepare ingredients; lay on a bed of lettuce one hour before serving. Tom asked me why I was rolling around in the garden..
I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said put the ingredients in a bowl and beat it. There must have been something wrong with this recipe. When I got back, everything was the same as when I left.
Tom did the shopping today and brought home a chicken. He asked me to dress it for Sunday. I don’t have any clothes that fit it, and for some reason Tom keeps counting to ten.
Tom’s folks came to dinner. I wanted to serve roast but all! I had was hamburger. Suddenly I had a flash of genius.. I put the hamburger in the oven and set the controls for roast. It still came out hamburger, much to my disappointment.
GOOD NIGHT DEAR DIARY. This has been a very exciting week! I am eager for tomorrow to come so I can try out a new recipe on Tom. If I can talk Tom into buying a bigger oven, I would like to surprise him with a chocolate moose.
