Dad Jokes Aren't Always Bad Jokes

As anyone who has gone through a midterm (or finals, or pretty much any) week with me knows, I really, really love bad jokes. As soon as I hear a new one, I have to send it to all my friends. Most of them have even started sending them to me as soon as they hear a new one, just because they know I'll love them. So, now, I'm deciding to share my joke bounty with the world! (Just bear with me here.)

1) Who calls the balls and strikes at the annual Vatican softball game?

The Holy Roman Umpire.

2) Why did the grammar teacher die?

He got over hyphenated and slipped into a comma.

3) Why did the man broom tell the woman broom that they couldn't have a little whisk?

Because they hadn't swept together yet.

4) What did the cannibal get after arriving late to the luncheon?

The cold shoulder.

5) Why does Ireland have such a population problem?

Because it's always Dublin!

6) What do you call the Samsung security guards?

The Guardians.... of the Galaxy.

7) Have you heard about that new movie, Constipation?

(No)

Oh, that's probably because it hasn't come out yet!

8) Why did Cinderella get kicked off the soccer team?

Because she kept running away from the ball.

9) What do you call a belt made out of watches?

A waist of time!

10) I broke my arm in two places. You know what the doctor said to me?

"Stay out of those places."

11) Did you hear about the sidewalk?

(No?)

It's all over town!

12) What do you call a broken can opener?

A can't opener.

13) Why are there fences around the graveyard?

Because people are dying to get in!

14) How did the hipster burn his mouth?

He sipped his coffee before it was cool.

15) A magician walked down the street.

Then he turned into a grocery store.

16) What do you call a computer that sings?

A Dell.

17) What do you call a fortune teller who dresses well?

A suit-sayer.

18) Have I told you about my CSI joke?

It's a real killer.

And, finally, my two favorites:

19) What's the difference between a dirty bus stop and a lobster with breast implants?

One is a crusty bus station, while the other is a busty crustacean!

14) What's the difference between a poorly dressed man on a unicycle and a well-dressed man on a bicycle?

A tire.

And there you have it! Thanks for not groaning too loudly while reading all these. And yes, I do regularly trade jokes with my dad. He finds (most of) them very funny.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
