A smart lady and a dumb lady walk into a bar...

The smart lady orders a cranberry juice and the dumb lady orders a shotglass of hydrogen peroxide. The smart lady has to explain to the dumb one that you can't drink peroxide. So, she settles for a champagne glass full of tap water. 🙄

The two ladies finish their beverages and go home and argue about bills. Turns out they're mother and daughter.

What’s with the price of eggs these days? I had to get a second mortgage on my house just to egg somebody else’s.

Like, because it costs a ridiculous amount of money for that many eggs.

The aspiring comedian

Bobby Wendell is an office worker who secretly wants to be a stand-up comedian. (Yes, it sounds made-up, and it is, but try and go along with it for the sake of the anti-joke.) Bobby goes to an open-mike night at a club in downtown Brooklyn. When it's his turn, he takes the mike. "Heya, folks, I'm Bobby W! Not to be confused with that 'George W.' fella - now what was he famous for again?" There is scattered laughs, and a few boos (due to their dislike of former President Bush.) The few boos (even tho not directed at him) threw off Bobby's rhythym, and as a result he gives a basically mediocre set. He only gets polite applause at the end, but he can tell that he didn't knock it out of the park. He goes home, drinks himself into oblivion, and has a terrible hangover the next day. He resolves that stand-up comedy is not for him, after all.

There was a doctor who loved hazelnut daiquiris.

Every day after work, he would stop at the same bar and have one. The bartender got accustomed to this, and every day he would have the daiquiri ready at the right time.

One day, the doctor was on his way when suddenly the bartender realized he was completely out of hazelnut. He panicked and made the drink with hickory instead.

The doctor took one drink and said, “This is delicious!”

You know what’s the best time to go to the breast cancer specialist?

Once every year to do check ups, you don’t have to wait until you feel a lump in your breast to go. And if there’s a history of breast cancer in your family then probably more than just once yearly as indicated by your specialist. Stay safe y’all.
