So grateful somebody invented window blinds...
Or it would be curtains for all of us! |

A young and foolish pilot wanted to sound cool on the aviation frequencies. This was his first time approaching a field during the nighttime.
Instead of making any official requests to the tower he said, "Guess who?" The controller switched the field lights off and replied, "Guess where?" |

Every time I have a beer, my wife keeps nagging me and telling me I drink too much.
I mean come on, who needs to hear that nine times a day? |

Outer Space exists because it is afraid to be on the same planet as Chuck Norris.

Susie: My husband is a great handyman. He can repair almost anything.
Jane: My mother always taught me to beware of the man that can fix everything. You'll never get anything new. |

A lawyer sent an overdue bill to a client. A note was attached that stated: "This bill is one year old."
By return mail the lawyer had his bill back. To it was attached a card which read: "Happy Birthday." |

The Who go time-travelling:
People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Things they do look awful w-w-warm (Talkin' 'bout my generation) I hope I die before I get born (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Last edited by pdurrant; 09-30-2020 at 03:15 PM. |

Note the changes I've made to the lyrics. I apologise for the warm/born semi-rhyme.

Now that's an embarrassing mistake I made. But makes it an even better joke now I've done some time-travelling and fixed my original post. Only your quotation now reveals the ugly truth of my ignorance of popular music.
