Joke of the Day
(Classic...)

One day a genie appeared to a California man and offered to grant him one wish.

the man said:” I wish you'd build a bridge from here to Hawaii so I could drive there anytime"

The genie frowned" I don't know. It sounds like quite an undertaking,” he said. "Just think of the logistics. The supports required reaching the bottom of the ocean, the concrete, and the steel! Why don't you pick something else?"

The man thought for a while and then said, "Okay, I wish for a complete understanding of women- what they are thinking, why they cry. I wish I knew how to make a woman truly happy".

The genie was silent for a minute, then said "So how many lanes did you want on that bridge?"





Kid Grows a Pair, Gets Suspended


Should you ever tell your kid it's okay to fight? What if they're being bullied, should they ALWAYS walk away, or is there a time when they have to draw a line in the sand?

Nathan Pemberton finally fought back, which resulted in a suspension from West Elementary School in Colorado Springs. According to Nathan's parents, their boy was constantly being pushed around by a school yard bully, even coming home with red welts on a daily basis. His parents told him to just walk away and find a teacher, which did absolutely no good.

So Nathan's mom finally gave him the green light to fight back:

'if there’s nobody else around, you do what you have to do,'

So when the bully kicked him in the back, Nathan returned fire with a direct punch to the face. Nathan and the bully both got suspended because the school has a "zero tolerance policy against fighting." Nathan's parents feel the suspension is unfair.

Busted


Take a look at an actual spread sheet one guy kept of his online dating life. He documented every contact he had with women he met on Match.coml, including notes on their appearance, personality, conversations, and first date impressions. For example, his first thoughts about his date with Marisa:

"Ok girl, but...One and done for me."

Another on her appearance

"Mixed bag of pictures, but great bod; works in my building, also in finance; well traveled;

He ended up sending the document to a girl he really liked, who then sent it on to friends, which then caused it to go viral.

Phones/Facebook: Are you on the dating scene? What's the very first sign a guy is a 'little creepy.'

Gross!


Would you believe me if I told you it's safer to touch a public toilet seat than it is most things in your office? Common surfaces in your office, like coffee pot handles, faucets, sinks, and even refrigerator handles are nasty germ factories. How Stuff Works.com warns to also stay clear of the meeting room during flu season because it rarely gets cleaned and people eat in there.

But you're safe at your cubicle, right? Yep! As long as you don't count the germ-ridden telephone, computer keyboard and computer mouse. Gross. You desk area may be 400 times more germy than the average toilet seat. Sweet.

When Are You In SERIOUS Money Trouble?


This is a British survey, but we can probably relate. Think of a real number -- how much would you have to in debt before you really started to worry?

For the average Brit, it's (in dollars) $23,149! Whew!

So how much debt is too much? Experts say it depends entirely on your circumstances, but if you're living close to the limit every month, then alarm bells should be ringing.

Here are 7 questions to ask yourself before your start worrying about your financial situation:

1. How much debt do you have?
2. How much interest are you paying?
3. Can you afford your monthly repayments easily?
4. Could your circumstances change?
5. What is your contingency plan if changes happen?
6 How did you get into debt?
7. Are the debts still building up?

If you can't answer these questions -- cut your credit card and get a plan together this weekend!

When you're forced to be in the same room as someone you can't stand .

Those people who try so hard to get everyone to like them.

When people talk to me when I have my headphones on

girls causing unnecessary drama

when there's no milk in the house

When I have to sneeze, but it won't come out so I'm just sitting there with a stupid look on my face -_-

when somebody is walking sooo slow in front of you, and when you go to overtake they move there, and randomly stop
