23 Reasons to Laugh

by jWells on September 13, 2008

This is my weekend “Just For Fun” post.I hope it makes you laugh out loud.

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 !
