Do You Need a Chuckle? Because I Sure Do!

Therefore, I hope you enjoy these.

For once, a *very* specific knitting cartoon (you can click on it to see a larger, more readable version):



I truly love this one:



Undercover?



This is another one that I just love, and I'll tell you why below:



When I was a kid, probably about 4th grade, I read a joke and thought it was SO incredibly hilarious, it was my go-to joke for a long time (too long, probably).  This is it:

Two morons were walking down the street, when they saw a sign that said, "Wet Paint."  
So they did.

(I still think of this and laugh when I see a "Wet Paint" sign ...)

Stupid and Wrong Things Amuse Me

I was gonna participate in Ten on Tuesday today, but the topic was to list 10 Places Where You Hang Out.  I couldn't even come up with five.  "Home" pretty much qualified for #1-10 ...

So instead, here's what you get.

I'll admit that I am easily amused.  I adore puns, and love wordplay.

Sometimes, things at work amuse me. 

1. For instance, right near the Library, there is a diorama of a panda "family" - two adults and a cub.  A few weeks ago, a woman and a little kid were standing in front of it when I walked by, and had this conversation.

Kid:  Where did they get these pandas?  How did they end up here?
Woman (clearly uncomfortable):  They died of natural causes.
Kid (looking disgusted, and pointing to the cub):  You're telling me *that* one died of natural causes?

2. Overheard as two kids come up the steps.

Kid #1: Let's go see the mummies!
Kid #2: That's not even interesting.  All they are is bones and paper.

3. Yesterday I cataloged an entomology book published in 1930, and the author's name was:  C. Yuwa Wong.  I know it's terrible of me, but I laughed until I cried.  Seriously, say it to yourself out loud.  You can't deny it's amusing, even if it's rude to laugh about it.

4. This is one I may have already told you about a while back, but something happened the other day that reminded me of it.  A former co-worker asked me once for a recipe for what I had in my lunch, and I said I'd e-mail it to her.  She responded:  "You can just tell me, I have a photogenic memory."  I was tempted to ask if I could see one of the pictures.  But she would have had no idea in the universe what I meant ...

What about you?  Are you as easily amused as I am?
