    Default Cynical philosopher

    Just read that 4,153,237 people got married last year. Not to cause any trouble, but shouldn't that be an even number?

    Today a man knocked on my door and asked for a small donation towards the local swimming pool. I gave him a glass of water.

    I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.

    If I had a dollar for every girl that found me unattractive, they would eventually find me attractive.

    I find it ironic that the colors red, white, and blue stand for freedom until they are flashing behind you.

    When wearing a bikini, women reveal 90% of their body... men are so polite they only look at the covered parts.

    A recent study has found that women who carry a little extra weight, live longer than the men who mention it.

    Relationships are a lot like algebra. Have you ever looked at your X and wondered Y?

    America is a country which produces citizens who will cross the ocean to fight for democracy, but won't cross the street to vote.

    You know that tingly little feeling you get when you like someone? That's your common sense leaving your body.

    Did you know that dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw fish to them?

    My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We'll see about that.

    I think my neighbor is stalking me as she's been Googling my name on her computer. I saw it through my telescope last night.

    Money talks ...but all mine ever says is good-bye.

    You're not fat, you're just... easier to see.

    If you think nobody cares whether you're alive, try missing a couple of payments.

    I always wondered what the job application is like at Hooters. Do they just give you a bra and say, “Here, fill this out?”

    My therapist said that my narcissism causes me to misread social situations. I’m pretty sure she was hitting on me.

    My 60 year kindergarten reunion is coming up soon and I’m worried about the 175 pounds I’ve gained since then.

    Denny’s has a slogan, “If it’s your birthday, the meal is on us”. If you’re in Denny’s, and it’s your birthday, your life sucks!

    The pharmacist asked me my birth date again today. I’m pretty sure she’s going to get me something.

    On average, an American man will have *** two to three times a week. Whereas, a Japanese man will have *** only one or two times a year. This is very upsetting news to me. I had no idea I was Japanese.

    The location of your mailbox shows you how far away from your house you can be in a robe before you start looking like a mental patient.

    I think it's pretty cool how Chinese people made a language entirely out of tattoos.

    Money can’t buy happiness, but it keeps the kids in touch!

    The reason Mayberry was so peaceful and quiet was because nobody was married. Andy, Aunt Bea, Barney, Floyd, Howard, Goober, Gomer, Sam, Earnest T Bass, Helen, Thelma Lou, Clara and, of course, Opie were all single. The only married person was Otis, and he stayed drunk.

    Oh my!

    That's a long list of smiles givers! (and a some laughs)

    Do you know how to translate any of this ones to Spanish Vicente?

    I'll help with these 2, just for giggles... literally!

    Acabo de leer que 4,153,237 contrajeron matrimonio el año pasado. No es para ser quisquilloso, pero, no debería ser un número par?

    Esta mañana un hombre tocó mi puerta pidiendo una pequeña donación para la piscina del barrio. Le dí un vaso de agua.

    Bueno eidjit. Mi intento (sólo para risitas:

    3. Quiero morir pacíficamente mientras duermo, como mi abuelo. No gritando y gritando como los pasajeros en su coche.

    4. Si tuviera un dólar por cada chica que me encontrara poco atractivo, eventualmente me encontraría atractivo.

    Gold, I can relate to "Money talks ...but all mine ever says is good-bye."
