STUPID PEOPLE TRICKS
1. Police in Wichita, Kansas, arrested a 22-year-old man at an airport hotel after he tried to pass two (counterfeit) $16 bills.
2. The Chico, California, City Council enacted a ban on nuclear weapons, setting a $500 fine for anyone detonating one within city limits.
3. A bus carrying five passengers was hit by a car in St. Louis, but by the time police arrived on the scene, fourteen pedestrians had boarded the bus and had begun to complain of whiplash injuries and back pain.
4. Swedish business consultant Ulf af Trolle labored 13 years on a book about Swedish economic solutions. He took the 250-page manuscript to be copied, only to have it reduced to 50,000 strips of paper in seconds when a worker confused the copier with the shredder.
5. A convict broke out of jail in Washington
DC, then a few days later accompanied his
girlfriend to her trial for robbery. At lunch,
he went out for a sandwich. She needed to
see him, and thus had him paged. Police officers
recognized his name and arrested him as he
returned to the courthouse
in a car he had stolen over the lunch hour.
6. Police in Radnor, Pennsylvania, interrogated a suspect by placing a metal colander on his head and connecting it with wires to a photocopy machine. The message "He's lying" was placed in the copier, and police pressed the copy button each time they thought the suspect wasn't telling the truth. Believing the "lie detector" was working, the suspect confessed.
7. When two service station attendants in Ionia, Michigan, refused to hand over the cash to an intoxicated robber, the man threatened to call the police. They still refused, so the robber called the police and was arrested.
8. A Los Angeles man who later said he was
"tired of walking," stole a steamroller
and led police on a 5 mph chase until an
officer stepped aboard and brought the vehicle
to a stop.
Rodney Dangerfield's best one liners:
A girl phoned me the other day and
said .... Come on over, there's
nobody home. I went over.............
Nobody was home.
If it weren't for pick-pocketers I'd
have no sex life at all.
And we were poor too. Why if I wasn't
born a boy.... I'd have nothing to
play with.
During sex my girlfriend always wants
to talk to me.
Just the other night, she called me from a hotel.
One day as I came home early from work .....
I saw a guy jogging naked. I said to the
guy .... Hey buddy .... why are you doing
that for?
He said .... Because you came home
early.
Its been a rough day. I got up this morning
.... put on a shirt and a button fell off. I picked up my briefcase
and the handle came off.
I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.
When I played in the sandbox the cat kept
covering me up.
I could tell that my parents hated
me. My bath toys were a toaster and a radio.
My mother never breast fed me. She
told me that she only liked me as a friend.
My father carries around the picture of the
kid who came with his wallet.
When I was born .... the doctor came
out to the waiting room and said to
my father ....
I'm very sorry. We did everything we could
...but he pulled through.
My mother had morning sickness after I was
born.
I remember the time I was kidnapped and they
sent a piece of my finger to my father.
He said he wanted more proof.
Once when I was lost..... I saw a policeman
and asked him to help me find my parents.
I said to him ..... do you think we'll
ever find them?
He said ... I don't know kid .... there
are so many places they can hide.
My wife made me join a bridge club.
I jump off next Tuesday.
I worked in a pet shop and people kept
asking how big I'd get.
I went to see my doctor. "Doctor,
every morning when I get up and look
in the mirror... I feel like throwing
up; What's wrong with me?" He
said..." I don't know... but your
eyesight is perfect."
My psychiatrist told me I'm going crazy.
I told him .... If you don't
mind I'd like a second opinion. He
said .... Alright.... you're ugly too!
When I was born the doctor took one
look at my face ... turned me over
and said. Look ... twins!
I remember when I swallowed a bottle
of sleeping pills. My doctor told
me to have a few drinks and get some
rest.
