    It's a little known historical fact that FDR was actually a flat-earther.

    Everyone always gets his most famous quote wrong
    it's actually, " the only thing we have to fear is... sphere itself!"

    A guy is taking his girlfriend to prom. He waits in a long line for tickets, but eventually gets them.
    He waits in a long line to rent a limo, but luckily enough, he manages to rent one.
    He heads to the florist's shop before prom, and despite the long line there, too, he gets flowers.
    All of his perseverance pays off when he gets to prom night well-prepared, and he and his girlfriend have a magical evening.
    They dance for a long time, and eventually she gets thirsty, so she asks him to get her some punch.
    He goes to the refreshment table and there's no punchline.

    He didn't even go to get a tux?

    The trick is to wear a tux every day of high school.

    I love Penn and Teller Fool Us. Such a great show. I love how incredibly positive and affirming the duo is to all the magicians that appear on their stage instead of tearing them down like other reality shows. Some of those tricks are amazing.

    Fortunately for all of you, I'm at work. So I went to the 817s, pulled down a book called "Dad Jokes," and opened it to a random page. Here is the bad joke the fates have for us today:

    An old man with a walker hobbled slowly into an ice cream shop and carefully climbed up on a stool at the counter, where he ordered a hot fudge sundae.

    The server asked, "Crushed nuts?"

    "No, thank god," replied the old man. "Just bad knees."

    What do you call a loud dog in the navy?

    A subwoofer
    Alternatively, what is the opposite of a top dog?

    Today's random joke from a random joke book I found on a return cart:

    I just watched a documentary about how they put WWI ships together.

    It was riveting.

    My college was talking about how she needs to extrapolate some data for a project

    I said that I haven't minded extrapolating data in the past, so I assumed that I'd be fine with it going forwards

    Author's note: based on a real interaction just now. It did not get a reaction

    My grandfather would have loved that joke.

    He had a tendency to slip a joke into a conversation and just keep going and then 30 seconds later you’d be like...hang on, did he just tell a joke?

    Sly old bastard never broke.

    The best is when you drop a subtle one into a group conversation and make eye contact with the one person who caught it just as they realize the terrible thing you've done.

    Oh, yes. We're down here together now, you and I.

    Triple bonus points if it's during a meeting.

    One of our clients has another consultant who just sits in all meetings and doesn’t really do or say anything. All my colleagues find him pointless but I know his real value: he gets all my subtle jokes and I enjoy watching him try really hard to keep it together.

    My personal best was, as a temp, getting to sit in with a bunch of old school techbro managers in a department meeting where one of the directors (who re-specc'd from medical) was telling us about some departmental survey they were doing soon to help evaluate the org for agile compatibility.

    I innocently offered, "will they be bringing in outside consultants?"
    this is a reference to Office Space, which all the techbro managers had probably seen more times than they could count, but the director clearly hadn't

    Getting to watch a room full of professionals all immediately and simultaneously get a pop culture reference that they're basically conditioned to find hilarious, right in front of their boss who totally missed said reference, and have to therefore not react.

    Man it was so good.

    It's not a joke in and of itself. MY NEW FIGHTING TECHNIQUE IS UNSTOPPABLE was a frenetic, practically stream-of-consciousness webcomic rendered almost entirely in clipart in which various karate men attempted to one-up each other with endless asinine "techniques", including transforming into Karate Snoopy, which everyone agreed was unfair because you automatically won if you did so.

    The experience of the comic defies accurate description in mere words; I can easily see it adapting well to television. It's just so obscure I never would have thought it would happen.

    Be careful, once you start down the path of recursive lists, there is no way out.
    You'll be looking for your list list list, and start thinking about putting together a list list list list before you know it.
