Re: Unconscious Humour

Since I am always ruining the tips on screwdrivers, I couldn't resist buying a screwdriver set containing a large assortment, which was on sale at Advanced Auto Parts. When I got it home, I noticed the molded clear-plastic case holding in the screwdrivers was held in place by 17 phillips-head screws.

What were they thinking? shock

That's like selling a can opener in a sealed can.

Re: Unconscious Humour

Tonight's news announced a shortage of "black bone marrow donors" (sic).

I wonder how they intend to use the marrow of black bones?

Re: Unconscious Humour

Heard in the check-out queue at Iceland

"If you go to Tesco you have to take it home"

Reminds me of a notice in an American hospital:-
"The first floor has been moved up to the fifth floor"
