WEBSIDE HUMOUR
Busy doctor
Suffering from a
bad case of flu, the outraged patient bellowed, "Three
weeks? The doctor can’t see me for three weeks? I could well
be dead by then."
Calmly the voice
at the other end of the line replied, "If so, would you
have your wife call to cancel the appointment?"
Bad customer
A barber runs out
of his shop and down to the nearest corner where a policeman is
standing.
"Officer,"
he asks, have you seen a man run by here in the last few
minutes?"
"No I haven’t.
What’s the problem?"
"The lousy
cheat ran out of my shop without paying me."
"Does this
fellow have any distinguishing features?" the officer asks.
"Well,
yes," the barber replies. "He’s carrying one of his
ears in his left hand."
Visit to asylum
During a visit to
the mental asylum, a visitor asked the director, "How do
you determine whether or not a patient should be
institutionalised?"
"Well,"
said the director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or
her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I
understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would
use the bucket because it’s bigger than the spoon or the
teacup."
"No."
said the director, "A normal person would pull the bathtub
plug. Do you want a bed near a window or near the door?"
Inscription change
When her late
husband’s will was read, a widow learned he had left the bulk
of his fortune to another woman. Enraged, she rushed to change
the inscription on her spouse’s tombstone.
"Sorry,
lady", said the stonecutter. "I inscribed ‘Rest in
Peace’ on your orders. I can’t change it now."
"Very
well," she said grimly. "Just add, ‘Until We Meet
Again’."
