A man boarded an airplane and took his seat. As he settled in, he glanced up and saw an unusually beautiful woman boarding the plane. He soon realized she was heading straight toward his seat. Lo and behold, she took the seat right beside his. Eager to strike up a conversation, he blurted out, “Business trip or vacation?” She turned, smiled and said, “Business, The Annual Sexual Education Convention in Chicago.” He swallowed hard. Here was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen, sitting next to him, and she was going to a meeting for sex education! Struggling to maintain his composure, he calmly asked, “What’s your business role at this convention?” “Lecturer,” she responded. “I use my experience to debunk some of the popular myths about sexuality.” “Really,” he said. “What myths are those?” “Well,” she explained. "One popular myth is that African American men are the best endowed, when in fact, it’s the Native American Indian who is most likely to possess that trait. Another popular myth is that French men are the best lovers, when actually it is the men of Jewish descent. “We have, however, found that the best potential lover in all categories is the Southern Redneck.” Suddenly, the woman became a little uncomfortable and blushed. “I’m sorry.” she said. “I shouldn’t really be discussing this with you. I don’t even know your name.” “Tonto,” the man said. “Tonto Goldstein. But my friends call me Bubba.” ---

Boys are cheats and liars They’re such a big disgrace. All they really want to do is get to second base-ball baseball they think they are gonna score. But if you let them go all the way then you are a hor-ticulture studies flowers, geologist studies rocks. All they really want from you is a place to put their cock-roaches beetles, butterflies and bugs all guys really like is a great big pair of jug-glers acrobats and a dancing bear named chuck. All guys really want to do is forget at no such luck. That is from _The Hot Chick_ Well **I** thought it was cool. Erm… look! _scampers away_ ---

In case anyone else is wondering, I put this in the pit because originally I had planned to say something like, “ok you f\_\_\_er’s I paid my g\_\_damn money, so start entertaining me!” But then I thought better of it. But it was already in the pit. Sorry for any confusion. Feel free to pit me for incorrectly starting a pit thread. ---

An 83-year-old woman decided that she had seen and done everything, and the time had come for her to depart from this world. After considering various methods of doing away with herself, she came to the conclusion that the quickest and surest method would be to shoot herself through the heart. The trouble was, she wasn’t certain about exactly where her heart was, so she phoned her doctor and asked him. He told her that her heart was located two inches below her left nipple. So she shot herself in the left kneecap. 😃 ---
