Ways to Annoy Your Public Bathroom Stall-Mate
1. Stick your open palm under the stall wall and ask your neighbor, "May I
borrow a highlighter?"
2. Say, "Uh oh, I knew I shouldn't have put my lips on that."
3. Cheer and clap loudly every time somebody breaks the silence with a bodily
function noise.
4. Say, "Damn, this water's cold."
5. Drop a marble and say, "Oh no! My glass eye!"
6. Say, "Hmmm, I've never seen that color before."
7. Grunt and strain real loud for 30 seconds and then drop a cantelope into
the toilet bowl from a height of six feet. Sigh relaxingly.
8. Say, "Now how did that get in there."
9. Say, "Humus. Reminds me of humus."
10. Fill up a large flask with Mountain Dew. Squirt it erratically under the
stall walls of your neighbor's while yelling, "Whoa! Easy boy!"
11. Say, "Interesting...more floaters than sinkers.'"
12. Using a small squeeze tube, spread peanut butter on a wad of toilet paper
and drop the wad under the stall of your neighbor. Then say, "Whoops, could
you kick that back over here please?"
13. Say, "C'mon Mr. Happy! Don't fall asleep on me now."
14. Fill a balloon with cream corn. Rush into the stall with your hand over
your mouth and let out a lengthy vomit impression while you squeeze the
balloon and splatter cream corn all about. Apologize profusely and blame it
on the fettucine alfredo you had for breakfast.
15. Say, "Boy, that sure looks like a maggott."
16. Say, "Damn, I knew that drain hole was a little too small. Now what am I
gonna do?"
17. Play a well known drum cadence over and over again on your butt cheeks.
18. Before you un-roll toilet paper, conspicuously lay down your
"Cross-Dressers Anonymous" newsletter on the floor visible to the adjacent
stall.

your neighbor and say, "Peek-a-boo!"
20. Drop a D-cup bra on the floor under the stall wall and sing "Born Free."

IDIOT SIGHTINGS.
Sighting #1: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate, when the airport
employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your
knowledge?"
I said, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?"
He smiled and nodded knowingly, "That's why we ask."
Sighting #2: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to cross the
street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged co-worker of mine,
when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it
signals to blind people when the light is red. She responded, appalled,
"What on earth are blind people doing driving?"
Sighting #3: At a goodbye lunch for an old and dear co-worker who is leaving
the company due to "rightsizing," our manager spoke up and said, "This is
fun. We should have lunch like this more often." Not another word was
spoken. We just looked at each other like deer staring into the headlights
of an approaching truck.
Sighting #4: I worked with an Individual who plugged her power strip back
into itself and for the life of her could not understand why her system
would not turn on.
Sighting #5 (a rare "double sighting"):
A friend had a brilliant idea for saving disk space. He thought if he put
all his Microsoft Word documents into a tiny font they'd take up less room.
When he told me I was with another friend. She thought it was a good idea
too.
Sighting #6 (from Tech Support):
TECH SUPPORT: "How much free space do you have on your hard drive?"
INDIVIDUAL: "Well, my wife likes to get up there on that Internet, and she
downloaded ten hours of free space. Is that enough?"
Sighting #7 (from Tech Support):
TECH SUPPORT: What is the prompt on the screen?
Individual: It's asking for "Enter Your Last Name."
TECH SUPPORT: Okay, so type in your last name.
INDIVIDUAL: How do you spell that?
Sighting #8 (Auto Mechanic) When my husband and I arrived at an automobile
dealership to pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been
accidentally locked in it. We went to the service department and found a
mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched
from the passenger's side, I instinctively tried the door handle and
discovered it was open. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's open!"
"I know," answered the young man. "I already got that side."

IGNORANCE IS BLISS!!
A redneck buys several pigs, hoping to breed them
for ham, bacon,
etc. After several weeks, he notices that none of
the pigs are
getting pregnant and calls a vet for help. The vet
tells the redneck
that he should try artificial insemination.
The redneck doesn't have the slightest idea what this
means but, not
wanting to display his ignorance, he only asks the
vet how he will
know when the pigs are pregnant. The vet tells him
that they will
stop standing around and will instead, lay down and
wallow in the
mud when they are pregnant.
The redneck hangs up and gives it some thought. He
comes to the
conclusion that artificial insemination means HE has
to impregnate
the pigs. So he loads the pigs into his truck,
drives them out into
the woods, has sex with them all. Then he brings
them back and goes
to bed. Next morning, he wakes and looks out at the
pigs. Seeing
that they are all still standing around, he
concludes that the first
try didn't take, and loads them in the truck again.
He drives them
out to the woods, does each pig twice for good
measure, brings them
back and goes to bed.
Next morning, he wakes to find the pigs still just
standing around.
One more try, he tells himself, and proceeds to load
them up and
drives them out to the woods. He spends all day with
the pigs and,
upon returning home, falls listlessly into bed.
The next morning, he cannot even raise himself from
the bed to look
at the pigs. He asks his wife to look out and tell
him if the pigs
are standing around or laying in the mud. "Neither,"
she says,
"they're all in the truck and one of them is honking
the horn."

tells you that she thinks she really loves you, but she can no longer bear
the uncertainty of not knowing where your relationship is going. She says

A. That you sincerely believe the two of you do have a future, but you don't

A small West Virginia Wild Animal Park had acquired a very rare species of
gorilla. Within a few weeks, the female gorilla became very horny, and
difficult to handle. Upon examination, the park veterinarian determined the
problem. The gorilla was in heat. To make matters worse, there were no male
gorillas of the species available.
While reflecting on their problem, the park administrators noticed Ed, a part
time redneck intern, responsible for cleaning the animals' cages. Ed, like
most rednecks, had little sense, but possessed ample ability to satisfy a
female of ANY species. So, the park administrators thought they might have a
solution. Ed was approached with a proposition; would he be willing to have
sex with the gorilla for $500.
Ed showed some interest, but said he would have to think the matter over
carefully. The following day, Ed announced that he would accept their offer,
but only under three conditions. "First," he said,
"I don't want to have to kiss her. Second, you must never tell anyone about
this." The park administration quickly agreed to these conditions, so they
asked what was his third condition.
"Well," said Ed. "You've gotta give me another week to come up with the five
hundred bucks."
