Ezzy’s Joke of the Day: And They Walk Among Us?

29 Dec

And They Walk Among Us?

ONE

you could have
an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets.

I asked for a half dozen nuggets.

‘We don’t have half dozen nuggets,’ said the teenager at the counter.

‘You don’t?’ I replied.

‘We only have six, nine, or twelve,’ was the reply.

‘So I can’t order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?’

‘That’s right.’

So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets (Unbelievable but sadly
true…)

TWO:

I was checking out at the local Wal-Mart with just a few items and the lady
behind me put her things on the belt close to mine I picked up one of
those ‘dividers’ that they keep by the cash register and placed it between
our things so they wouldn’t get mixed.

After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the ‘divider’,
looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it. Not finding the
bar code, she said to me, ‘Do you know how much this costs?’

I said to her ‘I’ve changed my mind; I don’t think I’ll buy that today.’

She said ‘OK,’ and I paid her for the things and left.

She had no clue to what had just happened.

THREE:

A woman at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and
pulling it out very quickly. When I inquired as to what she was doing, she
said she was shopping on
the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using
the ATM ‘thingy.’
(keep shuddering!!)

FOUR:

I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car. ‘Do you need
some help?’ I asked.

She replied, ‘I knew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door
unlocker. Now I can’t get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to
a distant convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?’

‘Hmmm, I don’t know. Do you have an alarm, too?’ I asked.

‘No, just this remote thingy,’ she answered, handing it and the car keys to
me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, ‘Why
don’t you drive over there and check about the batteries. It’s a long
walk….’
PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself !!!

FIVE:

Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too swift. One day she
was typing and turned to a secretary and said, ‘I’m almost out of typing
paper. What do I do?’
‘Just use paper from the photocopier’, the secretary told her.

With that, the intern took her last remaining blank
piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five ‘blank’
copies.
Brunette, by the way!!

SIX:

A mother calls 911, very worried, asking the dispatcher if she needs to
take her kid to the emergency room because her kid had eaten ants.

The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be
fine.

The mother says, ‘I just gave him some ant killer……’

Dispatcher: ‘Rush him in to emergency!’
