INTELLECTUAL HUMOR



"Should I sell my collection of boulders?" asked Sisyphus.  "Will they amount to more than a hill of beans?"


"Why did Albert Einstein cross the road?"
"I don't know."
"To visit a Relative."


How I Got From Bored To Bard 
 by William Shakespeare.


"Why did Socrates cross the road?"
"I don't know."
"He was on a special mission from the CIA, and that's all you need to know."


Is it true that Thomas Edison wore diapers, and light bulbs used to change him? 


After he died, Friedrich Nietzsche retracted his statement, "God is dead."


My bank account was the inspiration for Jean Paul Sartre's book,  Being and Nothingness.


"Why did Pythagoras cross the road?"
"Another mission by the CIA?"
"No.  Pythagoras crossed the road to see his pet hypotenuse which he kept in a square on the other two sides."


"Okay, that's enough!  My brain hurts."

FUNNY BONE SWIFTIES




Normally the following would be called Tom Swifties, but they're in my blog.  So there!


"I hate it when people ignore me," said The Invisible Man transparently.


"I love words!" said Diction arily.


"I'm tired," said the car all-seasonally 


"I'm afraid of the dark," said Thomas Edison lightly.


"I love you!" said the narcissist mirrorly.


"I made an error," said Miss Takenly.


"Sometimes I am not funny," said Gary Johnston truly.


"It's time to stop," said The End finally.
