[Humor] Undersubscribed

Image
Undersubscribed A high school student whose grades were lows was looking for a undersubscribed university. One day, he fell asleep while studying. In his dream, the goddess of wishes appeared to him and asked him, "Do you want to go to heaven or hell?" Then the student said while half asleep, "Which one is undersubscribed?" 미달이면 돼 고3학생이 성적이 안 좋아 미달되는 대학교를 찾고 있었다. 하루는 공부를 하는 둥 마는 둥 하다 잠이 들었는데, 꿈에 소원의 여신이 나타나 물었다. "너는 천국에 가고 싶으냐, 지옥에 가고 싶으냐?" 그러자 학생이 잠결에 말했다. 천국과 지옥중에 어디가 미달이에요?"

[Humor] Painting

One March day my wife said that the house needed painting. "It's still winter," I replied. "Forget it." In April, she told me she had bought some exterior latex. I said that it was still too cold to paint. In May, I heard her outside one day yelling for help, and we set up the ladder so she could start painting. Then I went inside to get a beer. As I sat in a lawn chair not far from where my wife was working, a neighbor passed by. "Aren't you ashamed?" she asked. "How can you sit there drinking beer while your wife is up on a ladder painting the house?" Glancing up at my wife, I responded, "She doesn't like beer." 어느 3월에 아내는 집에 페이트칠을 해야겠다고 말했다. 나는 "아직 겨울이야, 잊어버려." 라고 대답했다. 4월이 되자 아내는 외부용 라텍스 페인트를 샀다고 나에게 말했다. 나는 여전히 추워서 페인트 칠은 안된다고 말했다. 5월이 되자 어느날 아내가 바깥에서 도와달라고 소리치는 걸 들었다. 그래서 우리들은 아내가 페인트칠을 할 수 있도록 사다리를 설치했다, 그리곤 나는 맥주를 가지러 안으로 들어갔다. 나는 아내가 일하고 있는 곳에서 멀지 않는 곳에 접이식 의자를 놓고 앉아 있을 때 이웃에 사는 여자분이 지나가다...

[Humor] Camel and Time

There was a tour bus in Egypt that stopped in the middle of a town square. The tourists are all shopping at the little stands surrounding the square. One tourist looks at his watch, but it is broken, so he leans over to a local who is squatted down next to his camel. "What time is it, sir?" The local reaches out and softly cups the camel's genitals in his hand, and raises them up and down. "It's about 2:00", he says. The tourist can't believe what he just saw. He runs back to the bus, and sure enough, it is 2:00. He tells a few of the fellow tourists his story, "The man can tell the time by the weight of the camel's genitals!" One of the doubting tourists walks back to the local and asks him the time, the same thing happens!! It is 2:05.p.m. He runs back to tell the story. Finally, the bus driver wants to know how it is done. He walks over and asks the local how he knows the time from the camel's genitals. The local says ...

[Humor] A lawyer

A dog ran into a butcher shop and grabbed a roast off the counter. Fortunately, the butcher recognized the dog as belonging to a neighbor of his. The neighbor happened to be a lawyer. Incensed at the theft, the butcher called up his neighbor and said, "Hey, if your dog stole a roast from my butcher shop, would you be liable for the cost of the meat?" The lawyer replied, "Of course, how much was the roast?" "$7.98." A few days later the butcher received a check in the mail for $7.98. Attached to it was an invoice that read: Legal Consultation Service: $150. 개 한마리가 정육점에 뛰어들어 카운터에서 로스트 비프 한덩이를 물고갔다. 다행히 정육점 주인은 그 개가 이웃집 개라는 걸 알았다. 그 이웃은 변호사였다. 도둑질에 화가 난 정육점 주인은 그 이웃에 전화를 걸고 말했다, "보세요, 만약 당신집 개가 제 정육점에서 로스트 비프를 훔쳤다면, 당신은 그 고기가격을 물어줄 책임이 있죠?" 변호사가 대답했다, "물론입니다, 그 로스트 비프 가격이 얼마입니까?" "$7.98 입니다." 며칠후 그 정육점 주인은 우편으로 $7.98의 수표를 받았다. 그런데 거기에는 이렇게 적힌 청구서가 붙어 있었다: 법률 상담료: $150.

[Humor] A astrologer

[Humor] A astrologer A medieval Jewish astrologer prophesied to a king that his favorite mistress would soon die. Sure enough, the woman died a short time later. The king was outraged at the astrologer, certain that his prophecy had brought about the woman's death. He summoned the astrologer and commanded him: "Prophesy, tell me when you will die!" The astrologer realized that the king was planning to kill him immediately, no matter what answer he gave. "I do not know when I will die," he answered finally. "I only know that whenever I die, the king will die three days later." 중세의 한 유대인 점성가가 왕에게 왕이 사랑하는 여자가 곧 죽을거라고 예언했다. 아니나 다를까 그 여자는 얼마후 죽어버렸다. 왕은 그 점성가의 예언이 그녀의 죽음을 가져왔다고 단정하고 그 점성가에게 화를 냈다. 왕은 그 점성가를 소환하여 명령했다. "예언해봐, 너는 언제 죽을 지 말해봐!" 점성가는 자기가 무슨 대답을 하더라도 왕이 곧 자기를 죽이려고 계획하고 있다는 걸 간파했다. 드디어 그가 대답했다. "저는 제가 언제 죽을지는 모릅니다. 다만 제가 언제 죽든 임금님께선 제가 죽은 사흘 뒤에 돌아가신다는 건 알고 있습니다."

[Humor] Psychiatrist

Bubba went to a psychiatrist. "I've got problems. Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it. I'm scared. I think I'm going crazy." "Just put yourself in my hands for one year," said the shrink. "Come talk to me three times a week, and we should be able to get rid of those fears." "How much do you charge?" "Eighty dollars per visit," replied the doctor. "I'll sleep on it," said Bubba. Six months later the doctor met Bubba on the street. "Why didn't you ever come to see me about those fears you were having?" asked the psychiatrist. "Well Eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year is an awful lot of money! A bartender cured me for $10. I was so happy to have saved all that money that I went and bought me a new pickup!" "Is that so! And how, may I ask, did a bartender cure you?"

[Humor] Talkative Sally

Eight-year-old Sally brought her report card home from school. Her marks were good...mostly A's and a couple of B's. However, her teacher had written across the bottom: "Sally is a smart little girl, but she has one fault. She talks too much in school. I have an idea I am going to try, which I think may break her of the habit." Sally's dad signed her report card, putting a note on the back: "Please let me know if your idea works on Sally because I would like to try it out on her mother." 8살 난 샐리가 학교에서 성적표를 받아왔다. 샐리의 성적은 좋았다, 대부분이 A점이고 B점이 2개였다. 그러나 담임 선생은 아래쪽에다 이렇게 써 놓았다: "샐리는 똑똑한 아이 이지만 한가지 결점이 있습니다. 샐리는 학교에서 말이 너무 많습니다. 제가 시도해 보고 싶은 아이디어가 있는데, 이 아이디어가 샐리의 버릇을 고칠 수 있을 것으로 생각합니다." 샐리의 아버지는 그 성적표에 싸인을 하고 뒤에다 다음과 같은 내용의 쪽지를 달아 놓았다 : "만약 선생님의 아이디어가 샐리에게 효과가 있으면 제발 저에게 알려주십시오, 제가 샐리의 엄마에게도 그 아이디어를 시도해보고 싶으니까요."

[Humor] Johnny and a nickel

Image
There was a little boy named Johnny who used to hang out at the local corner market. The owner didn't know what Johnny's problem was, but the boys would constantly tease him. They would always comment that he was two bricks shy of a load, or two pickles short of a barrel. To prove it, sometimes they would offer Johnny his choice between a nickel (5 cents) and a dime (10 cents) and John would always take the nickel -- they said, because it was bigger. One day after John grabbed the nickel, the store owner took him aside and said "Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don't know the dime is worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel because it's bigger, or what?" Slowly, Johnny turned toward the store owner and a big grin appeared on his face and Johnny said, "Well, if I took the dime, they'd stop doing it, and so far I have saved $20!" 동네 코너 마켓에 자주 나타나는 '자니'라고 부르는 꼬마 소년이 있었다. 마켓 주인은 자니에게 무슨 문제가 있는지 ...

[Humor] Beer

Image
A philosophy professor stood before her class and had some items in front of her. When the class began, silently she picked up a large empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks. She then asked the students if the jar was full? They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. She shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. She then asked the students again if the jar was full. They again agreed it was. The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. Now, said the professor, I want you to recognize that this is your life. The rocks are the important things - your family, your partner, your health, your children - things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car. The sand is e...

And so it went on and on with the heart, the lungs and the eyes until finally the asshole spoke up. all the parts laughed at the idea of the asshole being the boss. So the asshole went on strike, blocked itself up and refused to work.

So, after service one day, he said to little Juan accompaning him, "If you can keep your grandfather awake, I'll pay you a quarter." This worked for two weeks; the aged man was kept awake and listened to the sermons very attentively. On the third Sunday, however, the preacher observed that the old man had falled asleep again.

[Humor] A young boy and a motorcycle

A young boy had just got his driver's permit and inquired of his father, if they could discuss the possibility of buying a motorcycle. His father took him to the study and said to the boy, "I'll make a deal with you, son. You bring your grades up from a C to a B-average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut and we'll talk about the motorcycle." Well, the boy thought about that for a moment and decided that he'd best settle for the offer, and they agreed. After about six weeks the boy came back and again asked his father about the motorcycle. Again they went to the study where his father said, "Son, I've been real proud of you. You've brought your grades up, and I've observed that you've been studying your Bible and participating a lot more in the Bible study class on Sunday morning. But I'm real disappointed seeing as you haven't got your hair cut." The young man paused a moment and then said, "You kn...

[Humor] Creditor

Creditor An American couple is flying to New Zealand for a two-week vacation to celebrate their anniversary. Suddenly, over the public address system, the captain announces, “Ladies and Gentlemen, I have very bad news. Our engines have ceased to function and we will attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an island below us we should be able to land on the beach. However, we may never be rescued.” Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely.
