Its Friday you humourless bunch of zombies!!!

Come on, share a joke and some laughter.. :D

Ooohhh this one is "almost" naughty..but not really :)

Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the
woods. A small tree begins to grow between them, and the
beech says to the birch, 'Is that a son of a beech or a
son of a birch?'

The birch says he cannot tell, but just then a woodpecker
lands on the sapling. The birch says, 'Woodpecker,
you are a tree expert. Can you tell if that is a son of a
beech or a son of a birch?'

The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree and replies,
'It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It
is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever poked my pekker into.'

Ok..probably not true..but funny anyways :)

ONE
Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets.
I asked for a half dozen nuggets.
'We don't have half dozen nuggets,' said the teenager at the counter.
'You don't?' I replied.
'We only have six, nine, or twelve,' was the reply.
'So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?'
'That's right.'
So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets
(Unbelievable but sadly true..)

TWO
I was checking out at the local Woolworths with just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up one of those 'dividers' that they keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed.
After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the 'divider', looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it.
Not finding the bar code, she said to me, 'Do you know how much this is?'
I said to her 'I've changed my mind; I don't think I'll buy that today.'
She said 'OK,' and I paid her for the things and left..
She had no clue to what had just happened.

THREE
A woman at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly.
When I inquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM 'thingy.'
(keep shuddering!!)

FOUR
I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car. 'Do you need some help?' I asked.
She replied, 'I knew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?'
'Hmmm, I don't know. Do you have an alarm, too?' I asked.
'No, just this remote thingy,' she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, 'Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long walk....'

FIVE
Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, 'I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?' 'Just use paper from the photocopier', the secretary told her. With that, the intern took her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five 'blank' copies.

SIX
A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid had eaten ants. The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says, 'I just gave him some ant killer....'
Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency!'

Back when we still had 5.25 inch floppy drives, a user brought a (music) CD from home, stuck it in the floppy drive, pulled down the lever... CRUNCH!

At least, that's how my Saturn works. If you lock it with the remote, you can still open it with the key and get in, but if you then try to start it, the alarm starts screaming and the starter doesn't turn. You have to then push the "unlock" button on the remote to quiet the alarm.

I was unaware that my first auto remote not only opened the doors but could also activate an alarm I didn't know the car had. Neither my wife nor I used the remote, but for some reason she put it on her key chain. One day I was using her keys and unknowingly armed the alarm. I soon returned to the car to get my glasses and of course set it off. I had no clue how to disable it and spent at least ten frantic minutes trying unsuccessfully to turn the d@mned thing off. Every time I thought I had it off, it would start wailing again.

A young woman in an adjacent store spent several initially amused then eventually annoyed minutes watching my fumbling. She came out, asked for the keys, and unlocked the door. The alarm stopped it's infernal screeching. I apologized to her and thanked her for her assistance. Upon arriving home, I looked in the manual, disabled the alarm, and stashed the remote neither of us use in the popular kitchen 'junk drawer'.

Both of us are perfectly happy unlocking the doors with the keys, like all good Luddites do.

I'm sure that it'll be all over the webs in a week.
Got a call about a broken copier.
Arrived to find the employee totally exasperated with the machine.
Problem; The labels are not lining up correctly when she prints them.
I look at the problem and quickly realize that the masters she is using are six across on the sheet of labels and the blanks that she is feeding in are three across. Tried to explain to the user that the machine could not correct for that. Looking at her labels I realized that she was feeding in ten identical pages of labels so I asked her why.
"Because I need ten sheets of these labels"

It took me a while to get my brain back in my head.

Hello, bored out of my head I've come up with these (sorry if they're already out there)

"Can I put my floppy disk in your drive"
"Do you think I can get my 2048MB into your 1024MB"
"Have you got any Norton Anti-Virus handy"

A bit naff i know, just trying to get things rolling!!!

Men's Group - la computer

The men's group decided that computers should definitely be female: la computer' because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic.

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for possible later retrieval.

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your pay cheque on accessories for it.

Women's Group - la computer

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be male: 'le computer' . Here is the ladies reasoning:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on.

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves.

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem.

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realise that if you' d waited a little longer, you could have got a better model.

I went to a dinner party Sat. night, where I and other guests enjoyed copious amounts of alcohol.

I awoke on Sun. morning not feeling well, with what could be described as flu-like symptoms; headache, nausea, chills, sore eyes, etc.

From the results of some initial testing, I have unfortunately tested positive for what experts are now calling Wine Flu.

This debilitating condition is very serious - and it appears this is not an isolated case.

Reports are flooding in from all around the country of others diagnosed with Wine Flu. To anyone that starts to exhibit the aforementioned tell-tale signs, experts are recommending a cup of tea and a bit of a lie down.

However, should your condition worsen, you should immediately rent a DVD and take some Advil (Advil seems to be the only drug available that has been proven to help combat this unusual type of flu). Others are reporting a McDonald's Happy Meal can also help in some cases. If not, then further application of the original liquid, in similar quantities to the original dose, has been shown to do the trick.

Wine Flu does not need to be life threatening and, if treated early, can be eradicated within a 24-48 hour period.
Cheers!

NOTE
If you find you are complaining a lot, it may be that it has mutated into Whine Flu. This is particularly common in men and can quickly spread to their partners where the symptoms are detected as a serious case of eye-rolling.
