Jokes for Kids!

Customer: Waiter, what’s this fly doing in my soup?
Waiter: That’s not a fly, it’s a little piece of potato.
Customer: Really?
Waiter: No, it’s a cockroach.
Customer: Well what's it doing in my soup?
Waiter: the backstroke.
Customer: Really?
Waiter: No, it's giving birth. See the millions of tiny cockroaches pouring out of the egg sac on the end of its abdomen?
Customer: Yes.
[the waiter and customer stare at the baby cockroaches swimming around]
Customer: Look, I hate to seem rude, but . . .
Waiter: Let me guess: you'd like a new bowl.
Customer: No, I'd like you to take a bath. You smell awful.

ADVANCED JOKE-TELLING ADVICE: When you get to the part where the baby cockroaches crawl out, do a little cockroach dance, and maybe pretend the baby cockroaches are tickling the person you're telling the joke to. Perhaps they're even crawling down the person's shirt collar and into their pants? Your call.

My new slogan

Via this isn't happiness and the creative review, which has an interesting article that asks advertising experts what their favorite slogans are. One of my favorite slogans is the emblem of Captain Nemo: Mobilis in Mobili, which is latin for moving amidst mobility. I wish I had a slogan. Brainstorming right now.

Jokes for Kids!

Q: What kind of party do bases go to?
A: A very boring party, because there are only four of them, and they spend the whole time complaining about how people walk all over them with cleats on.

Lulu

Over at the AV Club, Jason Heller reviewed Lou Reed and Metallic's bizarre tag team album Lulu. I don't want to ruin it for you, but I would like to excerpt the perfectly crafted simile with which Heller begins his review:

"Like an iceberg deciding to start a band with the Titanic, Lou Reed’s team-up with Metallica seemed disastrous from its inception."
