I don't open many endlessly forwarded emails. The emails I send are either personal, or sharing a new art thing I've finished and want to share with friends. Today I opened an email from a friend titled "Spread the Stupidity," that had a few silly moments in it. Rather than send it to everyome as it requests, I thought to post it here.
ONLY IN AMERICA...
- do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
- do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
- do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
- do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
- do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
- do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
EVER WONDER...
- Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
- Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed?
- Why don't you ever see the headline 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?
- Why is 'abbreviated' such a long word?
- Why is it that doctors call what they do 'practice'?
- Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
- Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
- Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
- Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
- Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?
- Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?
- Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?
- You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!
- Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?
- If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?
- If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?
The last paragraph is the part that makes me cringe. I usually delete the message, for the sake of not polluting REAL mail in another's inbox: "Now that you've smiled at least once, it's your turn to spread the stupidity and send this to someone you want to bring a smile to (maybe even a chuckle)... in other words, send it to everyone. We all need to smile every once in a while!" That last sentence is truth, which is why I wanted to share this here- it did make me laugh! Happy Sunday!
