That's when the fight started...
When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed, but somehow I always seemed to have something else to take care of first. The shed, the boat,
making beer... Always something more important.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.
When I arrived home one day I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. When I came out again I handed her a toothbrush.
I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."
That's when the fight started.

And that's when the fight started.....

My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table.
I asked her, "Do you know him?"
"Yes", she sighed,
"He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he hasn't been sober since."
"My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"
And then the fight started...

Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, and stealthily slipped into the garage. I hooked the boat up to the truck and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day.
Time for Plan B.
I went back into the house, quietly undressed, slipped back into bed and cuddled up to my wife's back; now with a different anticipation.
I whispered, "The weather out there is terrible."
My wife replied, "And, can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?"
That's how the fight started...

She said, "I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 180 in about 3 seconds."
I bought her a bathroom scale.

After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's License to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later as I didn't have my wallet.
The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt."
Always curious, I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.
She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me," and she processed my Social Security application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.
She said, "You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability too."
That's when the fight started...

Re: That's when the fight started...
Not sure it will be considered."gentlemanly" as I was criticized by the OP a few days ago.
Re: That's when the fight started...
As far as disrespecting women, there are a few jokes in that string poking fun at the male species as well. I thought they were all pretty funny. Everybody should lighten up.
I think one of the problems with our society today is everybody is perpetually offended and looking for a reason to be so. I kind of hoped the level headed folks who populate this board would be a little more relaxed about such matters. It not as if it was a venal and personal attack on an individual or a particular group, it was a harmless bit of humor. Heck, I am the first one to laugh at redneck jokes, and I are one.

I absolutely think that these are funny lines....
I also think that some pictures are over-moderated since they have always shown less than what can be seen daily anyplace you go.....

At least the jokes are funny.
I'd rather see photos of animals being processed in the field than some of the granny porn.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Re: That's when the fight started...
There is a huge variety among people as to what is considered 'appropriate', and although I am hard to offend, I realize some have somewhat more sensitive natures.casastahle wrote:Interesting,
A picture is posted that shows some cleavage and it causes a big stir.
And this disrespectful to woman post is posted and is supposed to be funny & acceptable.
I find it normal and healthy that men enjoy the appearance of women, clothed, partially-so, or not at all, and I enjoy humor that pokes fun at stereotypes of all sorts. Some of the best jokes start out with something like "A nun, a Jew, a Priest, a negro, and a midget walk into a redneck bar, and..."
But this is NOT my 'livingroom', so I am ok with abiding by the standards of the host. I guess if anyone has something really 'offensive' they just have to share, they can PM it to me...

Re: That's when the fight started...
What Doc said.
I, too, am pretty hard to offend, but anybody who's ever
been married can see the humor in these. I've never found
anything on this forum more revealing than the pics in Dillon's
"Blue Press." And that ain't remotely offensive.
Like Doc said, I'm not runnin' this outfit either, but some folks here
have GOT to lighten up a wee bit.

Re: That's when the fight started...
Wow, thanks for hijacking a joke thread OS (the other Doc). I guess when you get your pantys in a wad you're one of these passive/aggressive guys who just keeps on needling and mumbling from the peanut gallery. Here's a suggestion, pretend that green in your name actually means something and if you find the OP violates the forum standards PULL IT. Or flag it for review. That's how it's supposed to work, but since you're a designated Grand Poobah I figured you'd know that.
Oh, and speaking of wadded up pantys, I seriously doubt anyone walking behind you is going to see my OP from a distance and get thier pantys in a wad, but the same cannot be said of pictures. ("Granny porn" - now THAT was funny!!) MAN UP and get over having your posts pulled. If mine get pulled you wont hear me whining like a Trayvon Martin groupie.

Re: That's when the fight started...
I've read them all months ago. They're still funny now.
Some of my favorite jokes begin with, "... you might be a chicken-hauler if..." and I are one!

Re: That's when the fight started...
Well Oly thanks again for telling how it is supposed to work - but maybe we'll leaver that up to Hobie for the time being - by the way you got the facts, assumptions and analysis wrong on your last go round with me both on line and in the PMs. But then you started out by saying you did not know what was going on and you certainly did not know the behind the scenes. Now I know you are familiar with chain of command and that was also not followed in that incident but then I was just sort of dragged into it. So pardon me if I do not take your advice too seriously or your opinions. Don't think I am not enjoying our time together. it is all very educational on personalities and inconsistencies. Til next time now.
Oh and thanks for the psych eval - will you be sending a bill. I will be wanting a discount though as you are I believe misapplying passive/aggressive as a term of what you seem to be trying to describe. Might brush up on your terms and concepts.
And you were flagged but not by me and Hobie passed on it. Didn't seem fair for me to pass judgment or flag it under the current mood.

Re: That's when the fight started...
Could someone please post the picture that shows the cleavage that caused the big stir. I missed that picture and would like to compare it to the jokes posted by the OP so I can determine whether it was the jokes or the picture that was more offensive.
I enjoyed the jokes posted by the OP and my wife thought they were funny too. I'm sure I'd like the picture too.
Whoever/whomever said; "Lighten up!" was right on. Lighten up guys.

Loved the jokes, some were old but all were good.
Loved the cleavage too.
Anybody notice that old jokes are still funny but old cleavage....never mind, it's likely to start a fight
