An All Groaner Hump Day

Happy All Groaner Hump Day

Yup. For my Happy Hump Day post this week, I'm offering this collection of...

GROANERS.

I'm dedicating this post to my buddy Maria Zannini because she tells me my groaners have a special place in her heart.  (Or maybe it's in the compost pile behind the chicken coop.)

Okay, I'm also doing this because it's quick and I'm losing a chunk of today getting an MRI done on the persnickety knee that keeps giving out on me. Especially when I'm climbing up and down bleachers. At my granddaughter's diving meet last week, strangers were handing me down from row to row like some little old granny.  (No, I DO NOT see anything wrong with that last statement.)  It was embarrassing!

So, here we go. Get ready to groan. 

 1. I know a guy who's addicted to brake fluid. He says he can stop any time.

2. This girl said she recognized me from the vegetarian club, but I'd never met herbivore.

3. I'm reading a book about anti-gravity.  I can't put it down.

4. A dyslexic man walks into a bra.

5. Why were the Indians here first?  They had reservations.

6. The old man didn't like his beard at first. Then it grew on him.

7. Did you hear about the cross eyed teacher who lost her job because she couldn't control her pupils?

8. What do you call a dinosaur with a extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus.

9. I used to be a banker, but then I lost interest.

10. All the toilets in New York 's police stations have been stolen. Police have nothing to go on.

11. I got a job at a bakery because I kneaded dough.

12. Cartoonist found dead in home. Details are sketchy.

13. I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.


No, of course, I wouldn't give you all those groans and no "aw".  Here it is.


 Come on, you know you said it.

 
Okay, which one gave you the biggest groan? Or even (dare I say it?) a laugh?

I hope this got you over the mid week hump and sailing toward the weekend.

 Question of the Day:  Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

  4. Awwww. (Of course I said it.)

    Thanks for the surplus groaners today--I love those! The biggest groan for me was the police station one. (Okay, so I'm a sucker for potty humor. *grin*)

  5. For me it was #12, but I would be ok with an argument for any of them. Ha, mission accomplished.

  16. Just a follow up comment. As I expected, the MRI revealed a torn medial meniscus. Now I get to meet with an orthopedist to find out my options. Wheeee.

  17. Tara - Share away. And your vote makes the dyslexic man joke the winner. At least for now. I wonder what that says about our selective sense of humor. *grin*

  18. and hope your knee isnt serious... but my neighbor had surgery on hers and it wasnt so bad healing with therapy...

  19. I reckon he just said he was dyslexic! Good luck with the knee, though I imagine being carried along by total strangers has its own attractions : )

    ReplyDelete
  20. I think I like the thesaraus. Hope the knee is okay. Giving out is never a good sign.

  21. Mike - Gasp. I think it was deliberate.

    And I'd want a better looking group of strangers.

  22. Susan - Thanks. And yes, it can be inconvenient.
