    A Blind Man Enters A Lesbian Bar

    A blind man enters a lesbian bar by mistake. He finds his way to a bar stool and orders a drink. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender in a loud voice, "Hey bartender, you wanna hear a dumb blonde joke?" The bar immediately falls deathly quiet. In a deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is only fair, given that you are blind, that you should know five things...

    1) The bartender is a blonde woman.

    2) The bouncer is a blonde woman.

    3) The woman sitting next to me is blonde and is a professional weightlifter.

    4) The lady to your right is a blonde and is a professional wrestler, and

    5) I'm a 6-foot, 200 pound blonde woman with a Ph.D., a black belt in karate, and a very bad attitude!

    Now, do you still want to tell that joke?"

    The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head and says: "Nah. Not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times"

    I was going to post this in one of the threads but could not decide which one needed it more. :smile:
    1. A writer must not shift your point of view.
    2. Always pick on the correct idiom.
    3. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake.
    4. Always be sure to finish what
    5. Avoid alliteration. Always.
    6. Avoid archaeic spellings.
    7. Avoid clichés like the plague. (They’re old hat.)
    8. Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.
    9. Be more or less specific.
    10. Comparisons are as bad as clichés.
    11. Contractions aren’t necessary.
    12. Do not use hyperbole; not one in a million can do it effectively.
    13. Don’t indulge in sesquipedalian lexicological constructions.
    14. Don’t never use no double negatives.
    15. Don’t overuse exclamation marks!!
    16. Don’t repeat yourself, or say again what you have said before.
    17. Don’t use commas, that, are not, necessary.
    18. Don’t be redundant; don’t use more words than necessary; it’s highly superfluous.
    19. Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.”
    20. Employ the vernacular.
    21. Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc.
    22. Eschew obfuscation.
    23. Even if a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed.
    24. Everyone should be careful to use a singular pronoun with singular nouns in their writing.
    25. Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement.
    26. Foreign words and phrases are not apropos.
    27. Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms.
    28. Hopefully, you will use words correctly, irregardless of how others use them.
    29. If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is.
    30. If you reread your work, you can find on rereading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing.
    31. It behooves you to avoid archaic expressions.
    32. It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.
    33. Never use a big word when a diminutive alternative would suffice.
    34. No sentence fragments.
    35. One should never generalize.
    36. One-word sentences? Eliminate.
    37. Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary.
    38. Parenthetical words however must be enclosed in commas.
    39. Place pronouns as close as possible, especially in long sentences, as of ten or more words, to their antecedents.
    40. Placing a comma between subject and predicate, is not correct.
    41. Poofread carefully to see if you any words out.
    42. Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
    43. Profanity sucks.
    44. Subject and verb always has to agree.
    45. Take the bull by the hand and avoid mixing metaphors.
    46. The adverb always follows the verb.
    47. The passive voice is to be avoided.
    48. Understatement is always best.
    49. Use the apostrophe in it’s proper place and omit it when its not needed.
    50. Use youre spell chekker to avoid mispeling and to catch typograhpical errers.
    51. Who needs rhetorical questions?
    52. Writing carefully, dangling participles must be avoided.

    "LADIES".....if u have slept with over 8 guys u have absolutely no right to call your reproductive organ "A PRIVATE PART" it
    now belongs to the GOVERNMENT under the Ministry of Tourism, Department of Explicit Entertainment and Pleasure....

    And if it happens to be more than 10 guys, it now belongs to the UNITED NATIONS Humanitarian Council under Donor Aid.

    And if its more than 15, it should be prosecuted at the ICC for crimes Against Distortion of Private parts.

    My Dear Wife, You will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 57 years old, can no longer satisfy. I am very happy with you and I value you as a good wife. Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that you will not wrongly interpret the fact that I will be spending the evening with my 22-year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn Hotel. Please don't be upset—I shall be home before midnight.

    When the man came home late that night, he found the following letter on the dining room table:

    My Dear Husband, I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about my being 57 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 57 years old. As you know, I am a math teacher at our local college. I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant tennis coach. He is young, virile, and like your secretary, is 22 years old. As a successful businessman who has an excellent knowledge of math, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one small difference: 22 goes into 57 a lot more times than 57 goes into 22. Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.
