Cabin Boy (aka Ad-miral) comes home to find his wife naked in bed with another man.
"What are you doing?" asks Cabin Boy.
"See," his wife says to her lover. "I told you he was stupid."

Cabin Boy: "Teacher, is sexual exhaustion an excuse for not turning in my homework?"
Teacher: "No. You could have typed with your other hand."

Doctor: "Cabin Boy, I have bad news. You have syphilis."
Cabin Boy: "I want a second opinion!"
Doctor: "All right. You're ugly, too."

Doctor: "Cabin Boy, I have bad news and good news."
Cabin Boy: "What's the bad news?"
Doctor: "We cut off the wrong foot."
Cabin Boy: "Oh, no! Well, what's the good news?"
Doctor: "I sold your shoes to the man in the next room."

I know a more complex version of this one:
The students were supposed to do their final exams in the following day. The teacher was telling them that no one should be absent, unless he/she had a very strong reason.
"Teacher, is sexual exhaustion an excuse for not doing the exam?", asked one student.
Teacher: "No. Since it's a multiple choice exam, you can come here and use your other hand; and if you can't sit down, you may do it stood up.

An admiral is the highest ranking naval officer. A cabin boy is the lowest ranking crew member of a seagoing vessel, really just a slave to everyone else.
The one who calls himself Ad-miral thinks of himself as an admiral, but his posts have shown him to be a cabin boy. That's his real name.

This is outdated USSR humour, but I like them:
Once Stalin goes to a cinema house in disguise to check people�s attitude towards him. Now in those days, it was a strict convention that a clipping of Stalin is shown at the end of the movie, and everyone has to stand up. After the show, everyone but Stalin stands up. The man next to him says, �I feel the same way as you do, but we can�t help it. So you'd better stand too.�

The lawyer�s paradox:
Once, a junior lawyer gets trained by a senior lawyer, but he can�t afford to pay for it. So they strike an understanding that the junior should pay up when he win�s his first case. Many years pass and the junior doesn�t take up cases and doesn�t pay the senior.
The senior then files a case against the junior. He argues that if the junior loses the case, he has to pay, because the court ruling would be that he should pay. And if the junior wins the case, even then he has to pay, because the understanding is that the junior pays after winning his first case. Everyone thinks it�s an open and shut case in favour of the senior lawyer.
Just then, the junior argues that if he loses, he needn�t pay, because as per the understanding, he has to pay only after winning his first case. And if he wins, even then he needn�t pay, because then the court ruling would be that he needn�t pay. |

Wow! It's complex, isn't it?
I'm enjoying this topic a lot!

 oh come on CP don't be angry because I told that joke about you, I could also have used another guy as the 3rd option. You know this joke is from my best friend and he chose me. I wasn't offended.
I don't understand the last joke...

Cabin Boy:
Don't worry. I am not angry about your "joke." It wasn't funny and you did a poor job of telling it.
Remember, we are "friends." You are a "smart" guy. You "know" what you are talking about, and your posts are "interesting" and "good."
You couldn't possibly make me angry with such a "joke."

Oh, and remember, you earned your name Cabin Boy not from this thread, but from others. I just answered Red Rose's question about it here.

That's why people hate lawyers.
What do you call 100 lawyers buried up to their necks in concrete?
Not enough concrete.
What do you call 100 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
A good start. |
