Today's Chuckle

Then there was that other sidewalk pleasure—playing “jacks.” This will mean nothing to the men out there, unless they had sisters.

The game involved a set of little metal (or plastic) thingies like atomic starbursts, plus a little hard rubber ball. Depending on how many thingies you picked up & accumulated while your ball was on the bounce, you achieved “onesies … twosies … threesies” etc.
I group jacks with hopscotch and rubber band ropes. Girls were very dexterous with the jacks . Everyone had "chips" for hopscotch because their keys were attached together with this. And girls could show their athleticism with the rubber band ropes (is there a name for this) while wearing a dress, since they were not allowed to wear "pedal pushers" in school.


I think I would have preferred the trip to a humid climate ha ha. Guess we were on different wavelengths 😅
Not too late... you can tell him what a good time you had when you return and maybe buy him a lava lamp.
 
A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: “Ugh, that’s the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen!” The woman walks to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: “The driver just insulted me!” The man says: “You go up there and tell him off. Go on, I’ll hold your monkey for you.”

A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. “But why?” they asked, as they moved off. “because,” he said “I can’t stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer.”
 
We called these toys 'cap guns' and the red strips of paper with the gunpowder dots were the 'caps'. I remember how puzzled I was when my best friend, Mark Bauman, boasted to me that he had managed to buy '5000 caps!' I was confused, thinking only of baseball caps and couldn't figure out why anyone in their right mind needed, or could afford, that many hats. He was talking about a big bag of ammunition for his cap pistol.
Yes, caps! That's what I've been thinking all through this discussion. :)

The Real Definition of Words When Used By Women​


  1. Fine - I am right. This argument is over. You need to shut up.

  2. That's Okay - One of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. "That's okay" means she wants to think hard and long before deciding when and how you'll pay for your mistake.

  3. Nothing - The calm before the storm. This means "Something" and you better be on your toes. Note: Arguments that start with "Nothing" usually end with "Fine" (See #1).

  4. Five Minutes - If getting dressed, this means half an hour. (Don't be mad about this. It's the same definition for you when it's your turn to do some chores around the house.)

  5. Thanks - A woman is thanking you. Do not question this or faint. Just say, "You're welcome," and let it go.

  6. Loud Sigh - Not actually a word but rather a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. It means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is standing here wasting her time arguing with you about "Nothing." (See #3)

  7. Go Ahead - This is a dare, not permission. (Don't Do It!)

  8. Don't worry about it, I got it - The second most dangerous statement a woman can make. It means that a woman has asked a man several times to do something and is now doing it herself. (This will result in you asking at a later date, "What's wrong?" For the woman's response, see #3.)
 
“I always say ‘Morning’ instead of ‘Good Morning,’ because if it was a good morning, I would still be in my bed and not talking to people.”

“Some days you eat salads and go to the gym. Some days you eat cupcakes and refuse to put on pants. It’s called balance.”

“You can’t make somebody love you. You can only stalk them and hope for the best.”

“When I feel down and someone tells me to ‘suck it up,’ I get the urge to break their legs with a baseball bat and then say ‘walk it off.’”

“You think I’m cute when I’m angry? Well get ready, because I’m about to be gorgeous.”

INSULT QUOTES

“I’m actually not funny. I’m just mean and people think I’m joking.”

“I can only please one person a day. Today isn’t your day. Tomorrow doesn’t look good either.”

“I’m not insulting you, I’m describing you.”

“If you want breakfast in bed, sleep in the kitchen.”

“I’m sorry I hurt your feelings when I called you stupid. I really thought you already knew.”

“Look officer, I’m not being a smartass. All I’m saying is, if you caught me, then you were speeding too.”

“Whoever told you to be yourself gave you really bad advice”

“Keep rolling your eyes. Maybe you’ll find a brain back there.”
