Random Comedy Thoughts

Random Comedy Thoughts

-Do people trying to commit suicide turn to motivational speakers to get them over the hump?  Do books titled, ‘The Power of Intention’ work for them?  Would a Yoda inspired motivational speaker work for them, ‘there is no try, only do.’ 

-In high school the DARE officer would quote us the statistic, ‘92% of people who commit suicide regret it.’  How could you possibly obtain that information?  And 92%, that’s an oddly specific number. 

-How can any person who eats chicken admonish people who don’t eat free range chicken?  They care so passionately about the quality of life of chickens, but are ok with killing them.  That’s like wanting a death row inmate to have a McDonald’s jungle gym for a cell.  You want them to be happy in prison, but still kill them. 

-I want to buy a hun cal froyo machine for my place, to increase the chances girls come back with me at the end of the night.
