I told my engineering professor that our big homework assignment was due the same day I have an exam in another class, and he changed the due date to a day sooner.

This is why I have truss problems.

So, I have a friend who speaks with a lisp: he pronounces his l's like w's.

It makes for very awkward moments when we go to LGBT events and he asks "Have I made myself clear?"

warning; stupid humor ahead

"doctor, doctor, i've got a serious problem! i fart constantly, it never smells, it's always silent, but i can feel it happening. in fact, i've farted ten times since i entered the room!"

"well, here, take this for a month and get back to me"

ONE MONTH LATER

"doc, doc! the stuff you gave me was terrible! the farts are still silent but now they smell!"

"well, now that we've cleared up your nose, let's get your hearing checked out, shall we?"

A bus passes by a house to inform them of an incoming flood and offers to take them to higher ground. The family refuses, stating that God will save them. The bus goes on its way.

The flood arrives and the family is forced to climb to the roof. A boat passes, again offering to save the family. Again they refuse, claiming God will save them. The boat heads to higher ground.

The floodwaters rise even higher, forcing the family to climb even higher. A helicopter offers to save them, and they again refuse.

As the family is nearly consumed by the rising waters, they pray for God to save them. He replies "I sent you a bus, a boat & a helicopter. What more do you want?".

Peace is the only battle worth waging.

When we were just recently going into space, NASA realized their pens wouldn't work in zero-g situations. So they spent a few billions dollars trying to make a pen that would work not only in zero-g, but also in the freezing cold, the blistering heat, and in places with low air pressure. The Soviets used a pencil.

[up] Well, it is true... it just leaves out the fact that the Soviets switched to ballpoint pens pretty quickly too, because graphite dust is a flammable semiconductor. :P

Three blondes are trying to escape an island. They find a bottle and rub it, revealing a genie inside. The genie says, "I'll grant you each one wish."

The first blonde says, "I want to be 10% smarter." The genie turns her into a redhead. Using her newfound wits, she builds a raft and sails away.

The second blonde says, "I want to be 50% smarter." The genie turns her into a brunette. She uses her newly-upgraded skills to build an airplane and fly away.

The third blonde says, "I want to be 100% smarter." The genie turns her into a man, and he walks across the bridge.
