It’s Ask a Stupid Queston Day
September 30, 2011 by
Apparently, today is Ask a Stupid Question Day. It’s been said that there is no such thing as a stupid question and that the only stupid question is the one that isn’t asked. However, did you ever wonder why certain questions aren’t asked? Here are some:
1. Why is it that we don’t say “God bless you” when someone coughs?
2. If you file chapter 11 twice, does that make it a chapter 22?
3. Did anybody ever die of Boogie Fever?
4. If counting sheep really works, do the sheep stay awake being around each other because they are mathematically challenged?
5. Why is it that a pair of socks is two but a pair of underwear is only one? Is it so the other half doesn’t get lost in the dryer?
6. Do you have any other stupid questions to share on Ask a Stupid Question Day?

Before I Could Rhyme
September 23, 2011 by
This is from a YouTube series called Song Drops. It’s called Before I Could Rhyme: A funny song by Bryant Oden. It’s written for kids and so there’s a part in the middle that’s a bit gross, but the use of language and “UNrhyme” for lack of a better “NONword” is truly funny.

Didja know that tomorrow is Big Whopper Liar Day?
September 16, 2011 by
As I was searching the silly holidays websites, I had to chuckle when I found Big Whopper Liar Day was the day before National Respect Day! ROFL I mean, if you really did respect people, you wouldn’t be telling any big whopper lies, would you? Maybe you wouldn’t, but kids do!
“I didn’t break the lamp, Mommy. Dolly did it!”
“I don’t know HOW those vitamins got into the trash. Of course, I’ve been taking them!”
I’ve heard some whoppers in my time from adults too! And I’ve often wondered how some of them could keep a straight face knowing that what was coming out of their mouth was utterly ridiculous!
“Yes, Ma’am. If I were in your shoes, I’d pay the $800 unknown charge and wait six months for us to send you a notification in the mail telling you what it is you just paid for!”
Have you been told some whoppers recently by our kids? Your cable company? A salesman? What’s your favorite?

Private Sign
September 9, 2011 by
For SOMEONE’S eyes only…but whose?
see more funny videos
This sign is personal, confidential and G14 Classified! There are so many communication issues with this sign that it makes a great little mini communication lesson. Can you name all the ways in which this sign is “Communicationally Challeged?” I’ll be back later on to post the answer.
ANSWER: Here are all the ways this sign is “Communicationally Challenged.” 1. A private sign shouldn’t be on a public tree. 2. By the time you read the part where you’re not supposed to read it, you’ve already read it. 3. There is no further information on the sign. 4. so the sign serves no useful purpose. 5. Technically, not all the letters should be capitalized. 6. Actually, a few of the letters aren’t capitalized. 7. You have no idea who is authorized to read the sign anyway.

JoJoisms Now Available as T-Shirts!
September 2, 2011 by
We interrupt this Friday to bring you a new kind of Friday Funny!
Extra, Extra! Read all about it! You asked for it; you got it! No not Toyota, but JoJoism T-Shirts!
Last week, I posted one of my JoJoisms on the Art of Eloquence Facebook fan page and got this response, “I’d love to have that on a t-shirt!” Several said they’ d like to see it too so…here they are!
As far as I can tell, you have the option to order these in any size, color and style of t-shirt you like! So, just because you don’t see your favorite JoJoism in a color or style you like, doesn’t mean you can’t
get it that way!
I only had time to add just a few of my JoJoisms, but I’d like to ask you which ones YOU’D like to see on a t-shirt. The ones most requested, are the ones I’ll add next. I have written almost 200 JoJoisms and when I get to 200, I might just have a party! Here is the back of the shirt:
NOTE: They say sizes run extremely small so they ask that you order them one to two sizes larger. They do have a body size chart listed to help you with that.
We don’t make much on these t-shirts, we just found that Zazzle would help us provide our customers with a product they had asked us for. Go check them out and please let us know which JoJoisms you’d like to see on a t-shirt by leaving us a comment on the blog.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled internet reading. If this had been a real Communication FUNdamentals emergency, you would have been instructed where to turn to find further JoJoism t-shirts that reveal life’s truths…as I think of ’em!
