Re: The 2021 Joke Thread

If Vexation, is a reaction to those undecided about Vaxation, then at what point does that discontent hit the fan as incontinence?

Sorry, just pondering the covid psyche as a poetic theme.

Re: The 2021 Joke Thread

I can see the logic of using the washing machine measurement to depict the sinkhole.....

You tell someone, that hole is as big as a washing machine or several washing machines, they can instantly relate, as they likely have one at home...it's a visual thing...

But you say that hole is 2' x 3 'x 4' , people will go " say what again ???

even worse in metric.....that hole would be .66m x 0.995m x 1.23M...

reminds me of basics in the army.....drill sergeant would ask...." does anyone object to me cursing ??
we all looked at our feet and elsewhere mumbling incoherently at the guy next to us...
sergeant went on to clarify...."if I tell you that plane is flying high, how high do you think it would be ? "......
again, we all mumbled incoherently.....
the sergeant went on to say..." if I tell you that plane is flying f**king high, would that help to explain how high "....
this explanation, we all agreed, made it very clear we knew exactly what the sergeant meant...

Mic I agree that is why I find this metric version so funny.
