This “pfunny” may be especially relevant to college students at this point in the semester. For many it’s been 4-5 weeks since the semester started, so here are some signs you really need to do the laundry:
You’re wearing your last pair of underwear in the shower consistently.
You’ve worn your sheets to school because you can’t get them off of you.
Your roommate walks around wearing a full body medical suit like they did in the movie “Outbreak” to avoid catching the Ebola virus.
The Snuggle Bear on the softener bottle officially died last week.
The DEA’s drug sniffing dog is always coming by to sniff your laundry because the strong stench makes him think you have 12 tons of pot in your closet.
Even after sewing 28 spring scented dryer sheets to the inside of your shirt, your friends still say you reek.
The phrase “Wash Me” is visibly written in your jeans.
Your red T-shirt is now green.
Even your pets don’t want to sniff you.
Your friends talk to you at yelling distance.
The moths in your closet have moved to a new home.
Did you know that, just like there are Renaissance Faires and Medieval Reenactments, there are also PIRATE FESTIVALS? How cool is THAT? Too bad you kinda gotta be in a coastal area to do piratey things like that.
Here are some good quotes provided by some famous Jewish people. They’re not really about religion, but they do demonstrate the stereotypical Jewish perspective on life.

“Let me tell you the one thing I have against Moses. He took us forty years into the desert in order to bring us to the only place in the Middle East that has no oil!”
~ Golda Meir

“Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding in which you put your money in your pants pocket and give your coat to your creditors.”
~ Sam Goldwyn

“I’m going to marry a Jewish woman because I like the idea of getting up Sunday morning and going to the deli.”
~ Michael J. Fox

“I had a linguistics professor who said that it’s man’s ability to use language that makes him the dominant species on the planet. That may be. But I think there’s one other thing that separates us from animals. We aren’t afraid of vacuum cleaners.”
~ Shalom Aleichem

“Even a secret agent can’t lie to a Jewish mother.”

“My grandmother was a Jewish juggler: she used to worry about six things at once.”
Much to our dismay, it has recently come to our attention that many of our employees have been turning in timesheets specifying an unusually large amount of “Miscellaneous Unproductive Time” (Code 5309). Within the Accounting Department, unproductive time isn’t a problem. However, what is a problem is not knowing exactly what you are doing during this unproductive time. Based on our observations of employee activities, our department has constructed a charge sheet detailing a tentative extended job code list. The list below will enable a more accurate description of employee activities and unproductive events. Please begin using this job code list immediately and let us know about any difficulties you may encounter. As always, we’re only here to help.
Thank you.

During a dinner party, the hosts’ two little children entered the dining room totally nude and walked slowly around the table.
The parents were so embarrassed that they pretended nothing was happening and kept the conversation going. The guests cooperated and also continued as if nothing extraordinary was happening.
There was a moment of silence at the table, during which one child whispered, “You see, it IS vanishing cream!”
Here are some pirate jokes in honor of Talk Like A Pirate Day, which really should be celebrated ALL WEEKEND by anyone who likes pirates!
C0000||==============> (That’s supposed to be a sword!)
Two Pirates on a ship, one says “Yarrr!”
The other says “I was just thinkin’ the same thing matey!”
C0000||==============>
A pirate captain walks into a bar with his first mate and they sit down at the bar. Now, the pirate captain has been a little down on his luck in the world of women, know what I mean? His first mate notices some lovely piratical wenches across the bar.
“Arr, cap’n, you should go o’er thar and talk to her, ask her to dance, aye?”
The captain replied “Arrrr, but what about me one eye? What if she makes fun of it?”
“Don’t worry cap’n,” said the first mate. “She only has one leg! She won’t say anything with that one peg leg.”
Convinced, the captain went over and immediately impressed the lady as pirates will do. He asked her if she’d like to dance.
Why didn’t the pirate get hungry when he was left on a desert island?
Because of all the sand which is there!
C0000||==============>
How do pirates know when they are about to be attacked?
They watch Sea-span!
C0000||==============>
I don’t know if you guys have heard about this new Pirate corn they’ve got now.
I guess it’s going to be like a buck an ear.
C0000||==============>
What has 8 legs, 8 arms and 8 eyes?
8 pirates.
C0000||==============>
After many years at sea a pirate decided to retire. Since he had suffered injuries on the job he thought that he should collect on his workers compensation insurance. He had a wooden leg, a hook where his right hand should be and a patch over his right eye. The agent assured him that he would be compensated if the injuries were work related.
“How did you get the wooden leg?”
In a booming voice the pirate replied:
“Me and me mates were on the high seas when the boom she swang ’round and knocked me into the sea where a shark bit off me leg.”
Agent: “That is certainly work related. how did you lose your hand.”
Pirate: “Well matey, me and me mates were on the high seas when the boom she swang ’round and knocked me into the sea where a shark bit off me hand.”
Agent: “That’s also work related. how did you lose your eye?” in a booming voice the pirate replied:
Pirate: “Well matey, I was layin’ on the deck one balmy day catching some rays when this seagull flew by and dropped his duty right in me eye!”
Agent: “What does that have to do with the loss of your eye?”
Pirate: “It were the first day with me hook!”
C0000||==============>
What did Black Beard say to his men before they got on the ship?
My pirate name is: Iron Tom Flint
A pirate’s life isn’t easy; it takes a tough person. That’s okay with you, though, since you a tough person. Like the rock flint, you’re hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you’re easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!
You are The Cap’n!
Some men and women are born great, some achieve greatness and some slit the throats of any scalawag who stands between them and unlimited power. You never met a man - or woman - you couldn’t eviscerate. You are the definitive Man of Action, the CEO of the Seven Seas, Lee Iacocca in a blousy shirt and drawstring-fly pants. You’re mission-oriented, and if anyone gets in the way, that’s his problem, now isn’t? Your buckle was swashed long ago and you have never been so sure of anything as your ability to bend everyone to your will. You will call anyone out and cut off his head if he shows any sign of taking you on or backing down. If one of your lieutenants shows an overly developed sense of ambition he may find more suitable accommodations in Davy Jones’ locker. That is, of course, IF you notice him. You tend to be self absorbed - a weakness that may keep you from seeing enemies where they are and imagining them where they are not.
Friday’s Talk Like A Pirate Day and to help you get prepared for it, I’m highlighting a couple videos that Cap’n Slappy and Ol’ Chumbucket put together to help you talk, well, like a pirate! Here’s the first.
Even though much of the content is user-added (but also “verified”), the Internet Movie Database is probably THE most widely used website for getting information about movies. Now, according to CNET News, IMDb has entered the “Web 2.0″ arena and is delivering full-length videos! For FREE!
http://www.imdb.com/features/video/ talks about it and has links to full-length movies and TV show episodes that you can stream for free! Apparently there are over 6,000 available for streaming right now. Pretty cool!
