This is Lexi

This is Lexi.

She's an 8 week old German Shepherd.

I bought Lexi as a surprise gift for my wife, but it turns out she's allergic to dogs, so we are now looking to find her a new home.

She is 55 years old, a beautiful and caring woman who can drive, is a great cook and keeps a spotless house.

All genuine offers considered.

Please give generously.

Unwrapping

From The Argyle Sweater

TOP TIP

Wrap some empty boxes up in wrapping paper and place them beneath the Christmas tree.

Then, every time one of your children starts playing up, throw one on to the fire.

(NB: a box, not a child)

Mind Your Language


From Dilbert

It's been over three months since I ordered that How To Scam People Online book.

And it still hasn't arrived!

Play Date


I knitted a jumper for myself out of golden retriever hairs.

I think I look quite fetching in it.

In The Beginning

She said she can't remember what she ever saw in me.

Inventory Problems


From Loose Parts

I bought some shoes from a drug dealer.  I don't know what he laced them with but I've been tripping all day.

Non-Friction Books


From Bliss

That's the last time I buy my underpants from Primark.

They've fallen to bits after only six months.

I wouldn't mind, but they've only been in the washer twice.

Yellow Lives Matter

I can't stand racism and think it should be stamped out.

I don't see that it matters whether you're black, brown, yellow or normal.

This Be The Rhyme

From Wumo

A man walks into a bar with an alligator on a lead.

The bartender says "You can't have that thing in here! Get out!"

The guy says "It's okay, this Alligator is highly trained.

Just give me a few seconds and I'll show you."

 

The bartender, intrigued, gives him the go-ahead.

The man gingerly lifts the alligator up onto a table.

By this point, everybody in the bar is gawking at this strange man and his pet.

The man grins around the room.

 

Having a new audience, he clears his throat and says "This is Allie the Amazing Alligator, and he is so well-trained that I can do this,"

He balls up his fist and gives the alligator a swift crack on the head.

"OPEN!" He says.

The alligator opens his mouth.

Before the bartender can do anything, the man unzips his fly and gingerly places his penis in the front of the alligator's gaping maw.

 

He wallops the alligator once more and says "CLOSE!" and the alligator ever-so-gently closes his terrifying jaws comfortably around his junk.

 

One last time, he raps his head and says "OPEN!"

He removes his unharmed manhood, and tucks it safely back into his pants.

The crowd applauds, and he takes a bow.

 

With all eyes still focused on him, he says "Now, if any of you guys have the balls to do that, I'll buy you a drink and give you fifty dollars."

Silence falls over the bar, and everyone looks around for someone who might be willing to take the bet.

After a few endless, uncomfortable seconds, a little dude in the back slowly raises his hand and says "I'll do it, but you have to promise not to hit me so hard."

Co-Habitortoise


From The Argyle Sweater

We were out having dinner when my girlfriend said, "We've been living together for three years now and you still haven't popped the question"

"Good point, when are you moving out?" I asked.

Distraction


From OffTheMark

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve already!

Or at least that's what it looks like judging by the state of my advent calendar.

Age Old Concern


From Andertoons

SEX AT 73

I just took a leaflet out of my mailbox, informing me that I can have sex at 73.

I'm so happy, because I live at number 71.

So, it's not too far to walk home afterwards.

And it's the same side of the street, I don't even have to cross the road!

Flying Animals


From Buni Comic

Two lazy vultures had procrastinated on flying south for the winter until the first frost hit, then they got worried.

"We better catch an airplane to Mexico, let's go to the airport!"

So, they take off down the road, and as luck would have it, they come across two dead road-killed opossums, that had started to get nice and smelly, just like vultures like them.

"What luck, we better take these with us, I heard the airlines don't offer meals on the flight anymore."

So, they each grab a dead opossum, tuck it under their wing, and head on to the terminal.

They walk up to the ticket counter and tell they lady "We'd like two tickets to Cancun, please."

"Very well," she says, "Will you be checking any bags?"

"No," say the vultures, holding up the dead opossum carcasses, "we only have carrion."

My wife's the double of the blonde one in Abba.

I can never remember whether it's Benny or Björn.

Casual Friday

My wife was standing naked looking at herself in the mirror last night and asked, "What would you say is the best thing about me?"

I said "Your sandwiches".

The French Have A Word For That


From The Jenkins

'Gymnasium' is an ancient Greek word meaning 'naked exercise' but try telling that to the receptionist at Fitness First.

Being popular on Facebook is like sitting at the cool table in the cafeteria of a mental hospital.

Choice


I got some of that sensitive toothpaste last winter when the water was cold.

I wish I hadn't bothered; it gets jealous whenever I use other toothpaste.

Attenborough


From Bird and Moon

Earlier this year in a charity shop I bought an old vinyl single called "Sounds Wasps Make" out of curiosity.

I finally played it the other day and said to myself "This doesn't sound like wasps"

Then I realised I was playing the Bee side.

Future Tech Market


From 9to5

Q. How many folk singers does it take to change a lightbulb?

A. Three.

     One to change the bulb.

     One to sing about how good the old bulb used to be.

     And one to complain that the new bulb has gone electric.

I hate hotel towels.

Sometimes they're so thick and fluffy I can hardly close my suitcase.

Time, The Great Educator


My wife said to me "If I ever get Alzheimer's I would commit suicide rather than burdening you with me"

I said "That's the fifth time you've said that today"

Turning Back Time

From Looks Good On Paper

A 90 year old woman walks by her bathroom on the last Saturday night of October and sees her 90 year old husband.

He has a can of black spray paint and is spray painting his nether regions.

She stops and yells, "You idiot! You're supposed to turn your clock back!"

Multitasking


From Dilbert

An Easy Way To Remember Which Way The Clocks Go In Autumn:

The evenings are creeping in.

The collective noun for a group of tortoises is a creep.

The combined weight of 9 African spurred tortoises is approximately 365Kg.

There are 365 days in a year on the planet earth.

The best way to move mounds of earth is with a bulldozer.

Bulldozer rhymes with Composer.

One of the most recognised composers was Johann Christian Bach.

Bach sounds like Back.

Back. The clocks go back.
