Fun Friday
Today we’re kicking back for some laughs and taking a look at a handful of funny jokes from around the web that most of you will enjoy. It’s been a while since we’ve compiled a bunch of jokes, so let the geeky humor continue!
Joke #1 - Researching on the Internet
Mother: “How’s your history paper coming?”
Son: “Well, my history professor suggested that I use the Internet to research my paper, and it’s been very helpful.”
Mother: “Really?”
Son: “Yes, so far I’ve located 17 web sites that sell them!”
Joke #2 - Programming today…
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
Joke #3 - Uses for a DVD Spindle…
- Donut stacker
- Toilet paper holder
- With the help of a drill, a homemade Ker plunk game
- Ring toss
- Jello mould
Joke #4 Unix is…
Unix IS user-friendly, it just chooses its friends very carefully
Joke #5 - Fix it yourself…
When my printer’s type began to grow faint, I called a local repair shop where a friendly man informed me that, probably, the printer only needed to be cleaned. Because the store charged $50 for such cleanings, he told me, I might be better off reading the printer’s manual and trying the job myself.
Pleasantly surprised by his candor, I asked, “Does your boss know that you discourage business?”
“Actually it’s my boss’s idea,” the employee replied sheepishly. “We usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix things themselves first.”
Joke #6 - Did you hear…
Did you hear about the Coder that got stuck in his shower for a week? The instructions on his shampoo said: Lather, rinse, repeat.
Joke #7 - How much does Windows Cost?
Customer: “How much does Windows cost?”
Tech Support answers…
Customer: “Oh, that’s kind of expensive. Can I buy just one window?
Joke #8 - Computers should be referred to as…
According to women, computers should be referred to as masculine because they are supposed to help you solve your problems, but half the time, they ARE the problem.
According to men, computers should be referred to as feminine because even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for later retrieval.
Joke #9 - Four engineers in the car…
Four men rode in a car: a mechanical engineer, an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer, and a computer engineer.
The car stalled out.
The mechanical engineer said, “It must be the pistons; let’s repair them and be on our way.”
The electrical engineer said, “It has to be the spark plugs; we’ll replace them and be ready to roll in no time at all.”
The chemical engineer said. “No, it’s got to be bad gas; we’ll flush the system and be on our way.”
They turned to the computer engineer. “What do you think we should do?” they asked.
The computer engineer shrugged and said, “Let’s get out of the car, close the doors, then get back in and try restarting it.”
Joke #10 - You Might be a Geek if…
- You keep spare mouse pads
- You have more invested in computers than you do your kids
- You’ve gutted and rebuilt your computer five times since you last changed the oil in your car….
- You’ve ever written a program over in a different language just to prove you could…
- You check your mail before you get out of bed in the morning…
