Category: Funny

Not a joke per se but this is rather funny; a friend sent this to me awhile back – this was best 10 in a longer list.   Supposedly (so they say), these are actual answers to questions asked in last year’s GED examination; appearnetly these are genuine answers from 16 and 17 year olds.  Someone else added their own comments to some of them shown in italics below.
Q. Name the four seasons.
A. Salt, pepper, mustard and vinegar

Q. Give the meaning of the term ‘Cesarean section’.

Don’t let these little jokes stop you from taking to the skies….
After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a form, called a ‘gripe sheet,’ which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems; document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight.
Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humor. Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS ‘ pilots (marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers.
By the way, UPS is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident.
