Saturday Night Jokes and Other Funnies

AoSHQ Job Applicant A guy goes into a company for a job interview. The interviewer asks him, "What would you consider to be your biggest weakness?" The guy thinks for a minute and says, "I'm honest with everyone. I don't know how to be anything other than completely honest, no matter what someone asks me." The interviewer says, "I don't really see how honesty could be considered a weakness. In fact, I think it's a great strength!" The guy looks the interviewer right in the eye and says, "I don't really care what you think."

This one is from our good friend, Teresa in Fort Worth...

Two couples were playing poker one evening. John accidentally dropped some cards on the floor. When he bent down under the table to pick them up, he noticed Bill's wife Sue wasn't wearing any underwear under her dress:

Shocked by this, John upon trying to sit back up again, hit his head on the table and emerged red-faced. Later, John went to the kitchen to get some refreshments. Bill's wife followed and asked. "Did you see anything that you liked under there?"

Surprised by her boldness, John courageously admitted that, well indeed he did.

She said. "Well, you can have it but it will cost you $500."

After taking a minute or two to assess the financial and moral costs of this offer, John confirms that he is interested.

She tells him that since her husband Bill works Friday afternoons and John doesn't, John should be at her house around 2 p.m. Friday afternoon.

When Friday rolled around, John showed up at Bill's house at 2 p.m. sharp and after paying Sue the agreed sum of $500 they went to the bedroom and closed their transaction, as agreed. John quickly dressed and left.

As usual, Bill came home from work at 6 p.m. and upon entering the house, asked his wife abruptly. "Did John come by the house this afternoon?"

With a lump in her throat Sue answered. "Why yes, he did stop by for a few minutes this afternoon."

Her heart nearly skipped a beat when her husband curtly asked. "And did he give you $500?"

In terror she assumed that somehow he had found out and after mustering her best poker face, replied. "Well, yes, in fact he did give me $500."

Bill, with a satisfied look on his face, surprised his wife by saying. "Good, I was hoping he did. John came by the office this morning and borrowed $500 from me. He promised me he'd stop by our house this afternoon on his way home and pay me back."

Now THAT, my friends, is a poker player!

How about a Beef Fizz?

"The Beef Fizz Is a Real Drink and We’re All Worse Because of It"

Food trends come and go. (Remember butter boards? Neither do we.) But few things have captured the public’s interest quite as fervently as bone broth. Heralded by influencers and celebrities alike for its nutritional value and added health benefits, bone broth is one fad that’s had surprising staying power. But before the girlies were downing it in droves for a bit of extra collagen in the morning, there was a different broth-based sipper on the scene: Beef Fizz.

The drink, which first appeared in print sometime in the 1950s or ‘60s, calls for the mouthwatering combination of condensed beef broth, ginger ale, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. But the fun doesn’t stop there: Rather than being served hot (or at least at room temperature), the Beef Fizz is intended to be enjoyed over ice, ideally in a highball glass.

There HAS to be someone among you who has tried this. Come on - fess up!

[Disco says: I saw Beef Fizz open for Chickenfoot at the KCF Yum! Center in 2021]

Club ONT PSA

Consider extending an invite or a plate to that one member of your Idiot Circle who doesn't have Thanksgiving plans - or who'd otherwise be spending their day alone.

Club ONT Department of Health

Not that other locations are good, but this really doesn't seem good: Why you don't want to get tuberculosis on your penis

It's unclear if the man’s infection started in his lungs or on his penis. It's possible he could have inhaled it first; the bacteria were clearly in his lungs. But he could have also picked up the bacteria on his hands while working and then spread it further while, for example, using the bathroom.

While it will remain a mystery how the man developed such a rare infection, there's a happy ending for this case and others: 'Encouragingly, all published cases of penile TB responded well to anti-TB therapy with full recovery,' the doctors conclude.

Whew.

For the ettes: Masturbation improves menopause symptoms for nearly 1 in 5 women, study shows

Additionally, 57% of perimenopausal women reported they would masturbate more for symptom management if their doctor recommended it, compared with 40% of postmenopausal women.

Hmmm.... Didn't realize a doctor's prescription was required...

Club ONT Music

Listening to Run to the Hills, by Iron Maiden - got the brain going on march songs. Heavy snare, steady drums. Considered these two to kick things off:

Angel of Death, Slayer

For Whom the Bell Tolls, Metallica

Maiden secured the first video slot.

What do you have for march songs, Horde?

Top 10ish Comments of the Week

The commenters were particularly lucid this week. The back-channel whittling to determine the Comments of the Week required a heated debate over whether 'meh' qualifies as a substantive comment, a front somersault, best three out of five in thumb wrestling, and a ceremonial yodel-off. You're getting a few extra COW's this week.

Club ONT was brought to you by: What the Daywalkers claim to be doing vs. what they're actually doing.
