23 Reasons to Laugh

This is my weekend “Just For Fun” post. Laughter is such a great way to lift our spirits and brighten our perspective. I hope it makes you laugh out loud and contributes a tiny dose of joy to your day.

ONLY IN AMERICA DO…

* Drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

* People order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

* Banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

* We leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

* We buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

* We use the word ‘politics’ to describe the process so well: ‘Poli’ in Latin meaning ‘many’ and ‘tics’ meaning ‘bloodsucking creatures’.

*They have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

EVER WONDER…

* Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

* Why women can’t put on mascara with their mouth closed?

* Why don’t you ever see the headline ‘Psychic Wins Lottery’?

* Why is ‘abbreviated’ such a long word?

* Why is it that doctors call what they do ’practice’?

* Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

*  Why is the man who invests all your money called a ‘broker’?

* Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

* Why isn’t there mouse-flavored cat food?

* Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

* You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don’t they make the whole plane out of that stuff?

* Why don’t sheep shrink when it rains?

* Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

* If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

* If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

Have a great weekend everyone!
