Good Joke

A couple were golfing one day on a very exclusive golf course, lined with million-dollar houses. On the third tee the husband said "Honey, be very careful when you drive the ball. Don't knock out any windows. It'll cost us a fortune to fix!" The wife teed up and shanked it right through the window of the biggest house on the course. The husband cringed and said "I told you to watch out for the houses! All right, let's go up there, apologise and see how much this is going to cost."

They walked up, knocked on the door and heard a voice say "Come on in." They opened the door and saw glass all over the floor and a broken bottle lying on its side in the foyer. A man on the couch said "Are you the people that broke my window?"

"Uh, yeah. Sorry about that." the husband replied.

"No, actually I want to thank you. I'm a genie that was trapped for a thousand years in that bottle. You've released me! I'm allowed to grant three wishes, and I'll give you each one wish and keep the last one for myself."

"Wow, great!" the husband said. "I want a million dollars a year for the rest of my life!"

"No problem. It's the least I could do. And you, what do you want?" the genie said, looking at the wife. "I want a house in every country of the world!" she said.

"Consider it done!" the genie replied. "And what's your wish genie?" the husband asked.

"Well, since I've been trapped in that bottle, I haven't had sex with a woman in a thousand years. My wish is to sleep with your wife."

The husband looked at the wife and said "Well, we did get a lot of money and all those houses honey. I guess I don't care." The genie took the wife upstairs and ravished her for two hours. Afterwards, the genie rolled over, looked at the wife, and said "How old is your husband anyway?"

"35." she replied.

"And he still believes in genies...that's amazing!" :P

Oldie but goodie :)

On another note, more mistandry from the BBC:

Or is it just time for Japanese men to grow up, have more sex and make more babies?
Can't stand the thought of a man being happy without them...

It's not just Justin Bieber, there is some good music here and I'm actually enjoying listening to the radio.

Pretty sweet. Or "sick", as is the customary moniker of agreeable happenstances on this continent :)

I also heard this in a sports bar the other day!

Oh yes, I almost forgot.

The comment section is telling. The sentiment is there, whither the revolution?

That's from 2008 - soothsayers or something ??

The problem here is that most men still believe that being nice to women and giving them what they want is a way to get some #####. It never worked, but they still do it. That's one of the main thing that differentiates betas from alpha males. The former do a lot to impress a woman, the latter expect women to impress them. Wish I had discovered that earlier.

Wise words :) and a bit of an epiphany. Instead of this feeble online crusade trying to change the status quo, we should just let the betas burn themselves out :D

Ohh BTW speaking of Onion.... I posted a comment on TED's site where I suggested watching 'who has the biggest rock' - a very fitting parody of TED by ONION and I asked ' don't you think they are right?' and it got instantly got the most thumb ups

Needless to say two hours later my comment disappeared :-D

LOLOLOL

btw I agree with this cool guy's comment on youtube:
unfortunately this is true... I used to watch TED talks when they were really inspirational and informative... Watch Hans Rosling's presentations they are really worth it, so is Paul McCready's, Burt Rutan's and Cliford Stoll's.

Now most talks are on feminism.... at first I was like 'well I'll watch it - it's TED so maybe they are intelligent feminists who, for a change, have something sensible to say'..... Less than 30 seconds into each presentation and I know I was soooooooo wrong.

I hadn't seen the onion video you mentioned so looked it up on youtube and there was your comment on top.

Speaking of alpha males, these guys from this past event clearly are:

Image
The Colts reached Site 85 early in the afternoon, and two began bombing and strafing passes as the others circled nearby. Coincidentally, Air America captain Ted Moore, flying a UH-1D Huey helicopter carrying ammunition to the site, saw the attack (“It looked like World War I,” he recalled.) and gave chase to a Colt as it turned back to the Vietnamese border. Moore positioned his helicopter above the biplane, as crewman Glenn Woods fired an AK-47 rifle down on it. The pursuit continued for more than 20 minutes until the second AN-2 flew underneath the helicopter. Dropping back, Moore and Woods watched as the first AN-2 dropped and crashed into a ridge just west of the North Vietnamese border. Minutes later, the second Colt hit the side of a mountain three miles farther north.

Let me present to you, 2x 3D printed knife handles! Found the desing from Thingiverse and gave it a go, keeping mind that used .2mm layer thickness and my bed wasnt properly leveled ETC. I think they came out pretty good. Some acetone treating and they should look awesome!

As my forge isn't done i was forced to buy a blade for this, going to make the righthanded version to test out how nice the handle is
