Amusing actuarial anecdotes. So many of these have been threads I would certainly open, and not just for the smart-ass comments that would inevitably show up. I mean, yes, the idea of “Other uses for dryer lint” is kind of funny, but it makes a great firestarter, and I’ve often discussed a nostalgia for the Soviet Menace with other people who grew up towards the end of the Cold War. Now that I think about it, I’d have to open my own suggestion just to see if anyone knows any actuary jokes other than the one I’ve heard. ---

> [@](#): > > Now that I think about it, I’d have to open my own suggestion just to see if anyone knows any actuary jokes other than the one I’ve heard. OK, I’ll bite: What’s the actuary joke? Unless you’d rather start the thread, of course. ---
