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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
