Based on a true story. When I was following a week long training in the commando unit of the dutch armed forces there was a sergeant who had climbed up through the ranks for the second time. Second time, yes.

He was a sergeant the first time when he received the task of emptying the "outhouse". He did this in effect by throwing a stick of dynamite in the digged out reservoir. The tank was indeed empty after his cleaning, but the contents were spread out in a uniform coat of brown color over the whole camp,

The CO was not amused and the sergeant was demoted for this heroic act.
So he could start climbing again. But his speedy outhouse cleaning story is now a classic of the unit.

He is in the vaccine business now...
At least, experienced with computer virusses, so what could possibly go wrong?
More fun for the doctors.

Perhaps posters to the New New Joke Thread could abide by two basic principles to help keep the thread under control:
  1. Avoid repeats by performing a search for unique key words before posting
  2. Keep the non-joke posts to an absolute minimum (exception example: Moderator warnings of inappropriateness)

Since this can't be the Joke thread it must be something else. Hence the New Joke Thread.

Re: The New Joke Thread

WHY ‘KEYBOARD NOT FOUND, PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE’ ISN’T DUMB FOR THE REASON YOU THINK IT IS
Quote:
And that’s why it was so important to have a keyboard plugged in way back when. It wasn’t a dumb error, this was a leftover chunk of computer history that stuck around for a few years after the original bug it addressed had been fixed. But… the original fix for the bug was far from stupid like anyone who’s seen that message has suspected, far from it. It was a kinda crazy smart hack if you think about it. Maybe it’s not stupid if it works.

I just saw some idiot at the gym.

He put a water bottle in the Pringles holder on the treadmill.

What's a piece of lingerie that reveals more skin than the wearer consciously desired to show?

A Freudian slip.

Re: The New Joke Thread

I asked an electrician to fix an electrical issue at my house.

He refused.

Re: The New Joke Thread

Why did the chicken of destiny cross the road?

Robert Frost, "To cross the road less traveled by."

Johann Friedrich von Goethe, "The eternal hen-principle made it do it."

Ralph Waldo Emerson, "It didn't cross the road; it TRANSCENDED it."


... Ernest Hemingway (whispers), "To die. In the rain."

Re: The New Joke Thread

two hunters are out in the African bush, hunting big game
One decides he needs to take a leak and steps behind a tree to do this thing, when a black mamba descends from the tree and bites him on the end of his manhood.
"quick" he asks his friend " find help" !!!
The friend finds a local village and consults with the local witchdoctor , who advises him the only course of action to save his friends life is to suck the poison out or he will die.

The friend rushes back to find his friend writhing on the ground and explains he found a witchdoctor who told him what to do.

"well" what did the witchdoctor have to say" the stricken man asks...???

his friend replies" you are going to die"....
