The Fabulous Friday Funnies

Stress Buster No. 30

Humour Days at work

Fun decor, cartoon posters, jokes at meetings, balloons, funny hats, email humour, fun tea breaks, talent competitions, comedy DVDs, fun logos and signs, decorate lifts, award prizes for effort.

Explain to people, we take our work seriously and ourselves a little less seriously.


“Historic day at the White House. President Bush met the Dalai Lama. There was an awkward moment when Bush said, ‘Who’s the bald chick in the dress?’” -Conan O’Brien


I like to buy women a lot of drinks, not so much to lessen their inhibitions as to lower their standards. —Unknown


I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the Super Wal-Mart Shopping Center and rolled down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air. She was stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there.

I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically, “Now you stay. Do you hear me?” “Stay! Stay!”

The driver of a nearby car, a pretty blonde young lady, gave me a strange look and said, “Why don’t you just put it in park?”


At the end of our first date the girl told me I was crazy in the head and I should be committed to a mental institution. Why do women always want us to make a commitment? —Unknown


Drawbacks of working in a cubicle

  • Not being able to check E-mail attachments without first seeing who’s behind you.
  • The walls are too close together for the hammock to work right.
  • Prison cells are not only bigger, they have beds.
  • When you quit and walk out, there’s no door to slam.
  • Being told to “think outside the box” when you’re in a freakin’ box all day long.
  • 23 power cords – 1 outlet.
  • If you talk to yourself it causes all the surrounding cubicle inhabitants to pop their heads over the wall and say “What? I didn’t hear you.”
  • You always have the feeling that someone is watching you, but by the time you turn to look they’ve gone.

Q. What do you get when you cross a vampire and a snowman?
A. Frostbite.


I don’t know if you know much about a town by the name of Queenstown in Tassie, but it’s ecological history is somewhat bleak. First they logged every single tree from every hill for miles (lots of hills by the way), then they discovered copper and some other useful metals and ripped into the hills.

They also used some pretty potent chemicals in their mining processes and the naked, rocky hills are now permanently stained in shades of purple and pink. It is one of the ugliest places I have ever seen and if the road sign is anything to go by, I’m not the only one. The sign should have read “Welcome to Queenstown” but someone with a sense of humour and a liking for Tolkien scratched out the correct name and wrote “Mordor” instead. I have never seen more apt grafitti.


A woman was in town on a shopping trip. She began her day finding the most perfect shoes in the first shop and a beautiful dress on sale in the second. In the third everything had just been reduced to a fiver when her mobile phone rang. It was a female doctor notifying her that her husband had just been in a terrible accident and was in critical condition and in the ICU.

The woman told the doctor to inform her husband where she was and that she’d be there as soon as possible. As she hung up she realized she was leaving what was shaping up to be her best day ever in the shops. She decided to get in a couple of more shops before heading to the hospital. She ended up shopping the rest of the morning, finishing her trip with a cup of coffee and a beautiful coffee slice complimentary from the last shop She was jubilant.

Then she remembered her husband. Feeling guilty, she dashed to the hospital. She saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about her Husband’s condition. The lady doctor glared at her and shouted, ‘You went ahead and finished your shopping trip didn’t you! I hope you’re proud of yourself! While you were out for the past four hours enjoying yourself in town, your husband has been languishing in the Intensive Care Unit! It’s just as well you went ahead and finished, because it will be more than likely the last shopping trip you ever take! For the rest of his life he will require round the clock care. And you’ll now be his full time carer!’

The woman was feeling so guilty she broke down and sobbed. The female doctor then chuckled and said, ‘I’m just pulling your leg. He’s dead. What’d you buy?’


A nurse noticed a man in golf attire pacing up and down out- side the operating room where another golfer who had a golf ball driven down his throat, was being treated.

“Is he a relative of yours?” the nurse, stepping outside the room, asked the pacing golfer.

“No,” replied the man, “That’s my ball!”


One morning at church, the pastor noticed little Alex standing in the foyerof the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names with little flags mounted on either side of it.

The six year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said quietly, “Good morning Alex.”

“Good morning Pastor,” he replied, still focused on the plaque.

“Pastor, what is this?” he asked the pastor.

The pastor said, “Well, son, it’s a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service.”

Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque. Finally, little Alex’s voice, barely audible and trembling with fear, asked,

“Which service, the 9:30 or the 11:15?”

John Howard Stamp

Australia Post created a stamp with a picture of John Howard to honour his achievements. Unfortunately, the stamp was not sticking to envelopes.

This enraged our Prime Minister, who demanded a full investigation into the matter. After a month of testing, the investigation revealed three findings:

  1. The stamp is in perfect order.
  2. There is nothing wrong with the applied adhesive.
  3. People are spitting on the wrong side.

The Fabulous Friday Funnies

Stress Buster No. 22.

Get a health check.

There are many disorders that initially do not have any obvious physical symptoms. For example you could be walking around with diabetes, high blood pressure or kidney disease and not know it. You’ll need to ask for an extended appointment with your GP when you book.


I was meeting a friend in a bar, and as I went in I noticed two pretty girls looking at me.

“Nine,” I heard one whisper as I passed.

Feeling pleased with myself, I swaggered over to my buddy and told him a girl had just rated me a nine out of ten.

“I don’t want to ruin it for you,” he said, “but when I walked in, they were speaking German.”


Two kids are arguing over whose father is the biggestscaredy-cat.

The first kid says, “My dad is so scared that when lightning strikes, he hides underneath the bed.”

The second kid replies,”Yeah? Well, that’s nothing. My dad is so scared that when my mom has to work the nightshift, he sleeps with the lady next door.”


A group of Americans were traveling by tour bus through Holland .As they stopped at a cheese farm, a young guide led them through the process of cheese making, explaining that goat’s milk was used. She showed the group a lively hillside where many goats were grazing.

“These” she explained “are the older goats put out to pasture when ;they no longer produce.” She then asked, “What do you do in America with your old goats?” A spry old gentleman answered, “They send us on bus tours!”


A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.

The first does a total make over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon gets her hair done, new make up and buys several new outfits and dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much.

Again, the man is impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he’d given her.

Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

Men are like that, you know.


“A group of investors announced they plan on opening a hotel in space. A weekend stay will cost $4 million. It will cost you another million to eat a Snickers from the mini bar.” -Conan O’Brien


“Smokey the Bear turns 47 today. I never trusted Smokey the Bear. Kids, if you see a bear wearing a ranger’s hat, it’s because the bear ate the ranger!” -Craig Ferguson


Five tips for a woman

  1. It is important that a man helps you around the house and has a job.
  2. It is important that a man makes you laugh.
  3. It is important to find a man you can count on and doesn’t lie to You.
  4. It is important that a man loves you and spoils you.
  5. It is important that these four men don’t know each other.

A lonely wife brought a man she had just met at a bar home to her bedroom one evening when she thought her husband was out of town. They immediately tore each other’s clothes off and started going at it. She sat up quickly in bed as she heard the key in the lock.

“Quick!” she said to the man, “it’s my husband! You’ve got to get out of here quick!”

“Where’s the back door?” the man asked as he grabbed his clothes.

“There isn’t one,” she replied.

“Where would you like one?” he asked.


Nice words/phrases woman use

  1. Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
  2. Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
  3. Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with ‘nothing’ usually end in ‘fine’.
  4. Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do It!
  5. Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
  6. That’s Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
  7. Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you’re welcome.
  8. Whatever: It’s a women’s way of saying STUFF YOU!
  9. Don’t worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking ‘What’s wrong?’ (For the woman’s response refer to #3.)

A beautiful woman loved growing vegetables, but couldn’t seem to get her tomatoes to turn red.

One day, while taking a stroll, she came upon a gentleman neighbour who had the most beautiful garden full of huge red tomatoes.

The woman asked the gentlemen, “What do you do to get your tomatoes so red?” The gentlemen responded, “Well, twice a day I stand in front of my garden n a k e d in my trench coat and flash. My tomatoes turn red from blushing so much.”

Well, the woman was so impressed, she decided to try doing the same thing to her garden to see if it would work. So twice a day for two weeks she flashed her garden, hoping for the best.

One day the gentleman was passing by and asked the woman, “By the way, how did it go? Did your tomatoes turn red?”

No”, she replied, “but my cucumbers are enormous.”


“Why don’t they make the whole plane out of that black box stuff?” —Steven Wright


A school teacher asked her students to use the word “fascinate” in a sentence.

Molly put up her hand and said, “My family went to my granddad’s farm, and we all saw his pet sheep. It was fascinating.”

The teacher said, “That was good, but I wanted you to use the word ‘fascinate,’ not ‘fascinating.’”

Sally raised her hand and said, “My family went to see Rock City and I was fascinated.”

The teacher said, “Well, that was good Sally, but I wanted you to use the word ‘fascinate.’”

Little Johnny raised his hand. The teacher hesitated because she had been burned by Little Johnny before.

She finally decided there was no way he could damage the word “fascinate.” so she called on him.

Johnny said, “My aunt Gina has a sweater with ten buttons, but her tits are so big she can only fasten eight.”

The teacher cried.

The Fabulous Friday Funnies

Stress Buster No. 21.

Make friends.

Make time for friends. Surround yourself with their photos to remind you to call them up and see them.


The young woman really thought she’d been very patient through a protracted period of dating with no talk of marriage.

One night her steady boyfriend took her to a Chinese restaurant. As he perused the menu, he casually asked her, “So, how do you like your rice? Steamed or fried?”

Without missing a beat, she looked over her menu at him and replied clearly, “Thrown.”


While shopping in a food store, two nuns happened to pass by the beer, wine and liquor section. One asked the other if she would like a beer. The second nun answered that, indeed, it would be very nice to have one, but that she would feel uncomfortable about purchasing it.

The first nun replied that she would handle that without a problem. She picked up a six-pack and took it to the cashier. The cashier had a surprised look so the nun said, “This is for washing our hair.”

Without blinking an eye, the cashier reached under the counter and put a package of pretzel sticks in the bag with the beer saying, “Here, don’t forget the curlers


“According to Glamour magazine, 83 percent of women tell their friends secrets to their husbands. So women, if you tell your girlfriend something, 83 percent chance she will tell her husband. But the good news? One hundred percent of the men aren’t listening anyway.” -Jay Leno


There are four engineers traveling in a car; a mechanical engineer, a chemical engineer, an electrical engineer and a computer engineer. The car breaks down.

“Sounds to me as if the pistons have seized. We’ll have to strip down the engine before we can get the car working again”, says the mechanical engineer.

“Well”, says the chemical engineer, “it sounded to me as if the fuel might be contaminated. I think we should clear out the fuel system.”

“I thought it might be a grounding problem”, says the electrical engineer, “or maybe a faulty plug lead.”

They all turn to the computer engineer who has said nothing and say: “Well, what do you think?”

The Computer Engineer thought for a bit and then said

“Ummm, perhaps if we all need to get out of the car and get back in again!”


“Doing nothing is very hard to do, you never know when you’re finished.” —Unknown


“The big story in Washington D.C… not the war in Iraq, not Alberto Gonzales lying to Congress, not healthcare… the big story everyone is talking about, Hillary Clinton showing a little cleavage. It’s amazing isn’t it? The United States is 231 years old, but apparently the media is only 13.” -Jay Leno


A Doctor wanted to get off work and play golf, so he approached his Irish assistant Paddy. “I am going golfing tomorrow Paddy and I don’t want to close the clinic. I want you to take care of the clinic and take care of all of our patients” “Yes, sir!” answers Paddy.

The doctor goes off to golf and returns the following day and asks: So, Paddy, how was your day? Paddy told him that he took care of three patients. “The first one had a headache so I gave him Panadol.” “Bravo Mate and the second one?” asks the doctor. “The second one had stomach burning and I gave him Mylanta”. “Excellent. You’re good at this and what about the third one?” asks the doctor. “Well, I was sitting here and suddenly the door opens and a woman enters. Like a woman possessed, she undresses herself, taking off absolutely everything and lies down on the table and shouts: ‘HELP ME! For five years I haven’t seen a man!’”

“Good God “says the doctor.”What did you do?” “I put drops in her eyes!”


My wife came home from the doctor’s office and said that he told her she couldn’t make love. I’ve always known this, but how did he find out?


“A good wife always forgives her husband when she’s wrong.” —Milton Berle


Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.

The first patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week.

The second sees his family doctor after waiting a week for an appointment, then waits eight weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn’t reviewed for another week, and finally has his surgery scheduled for six weeks from then.

Why the different treatment for the two patients?

The first is a Golden Retriever.
The second is a Senior Citizen.


“Russia is claiming that it owns the North Pole. President Bush is furious and said, ‘That’s ridiculous – everyone knows the North Pole is owned by Santa.’” -Conan O’Brien


My wife is still mad at me over a teensy misunderstanding that occurred when our baby was born. She called me at work and said her water had broken.

And I said, “So, call the plumber.”


We have a huge council house in our street. The extended family is run by a grumpy old woman with a pack of fierce dogs. Her car isn’t taxed or insured, and doesn’t even have a number plate, but the police still do nothing.

Her bad tempered old man is famous for upsetting foreigners with racist comments. A shopkeeper blames him for ordering the murder of his son and his son’s girlfriend, but nothing has been proved yet.

All their kids have broken marriages except the youngest, who everyone thought was gay.

Two grandsons are meant to be in the Army but are always seen out in nightclubs. The family’s odd antics are always in the papers. They are out of control…

Honestly – who’d live near Windsor Castle?


“Take a bunch of flowers home for your wife, sir,” urged the street vendor.

“I haven’t got a wife,” replied the young man. “Then buy a bunch for your sweetheart.”

“I don’t have a sweetheart, either.”

“Well then, buy a couple of bunches to celebrate your luck.”
