Great, great comment, very deep. I have no joke to add. I'm going to meditate on the truth of that one. Ommmm......

Aha, this finally puts to rest that nagging question "Why can't God heal amputees?" The answer, of course, is that she couldn't get into Harvard.

The US is sitting on the largest oil reserves in the world.

Um... no. The US isn't even in the top 10 for reserves. Well over half of all known oil reserves are under the Middle East, with a large portion of that under Saudi Arabia. Venezuela as a country is sitting on more than anyone else.

Maybe you're thinking of coal? Coal, we do have the most, so luckily we'll have something left to sell to China to pay for all our oil.

If she had any common sense, she wouldn't have let herself get promoted to management!

I've just got to imagine that when the German executives meet with the American sales team, to discuss market penetration of Siemens into new openings, that the American contingent spends most of their energy trying not to giggle.

Yes, San Francisco is the center of the universe. Really. Just ask anyone who lives there.

And besides, with enough eyeballs, that shallow error would have been soon pointed out and corrected (at least, that's the way it's supposed to work).

Q: How many hipsters does it take to change a light bulb?
A: What... you don't know?

An honest question: Is smoking part of it? From what I've seen, a huge percentage of people in China smoke quite a bit. Obviously, this is hard on the lungs and heart in the longer term, but in the short term, it does burn more calories and tends to make people thinner. So are people healthier or do they just "look" healthier?

Even before that, he was a steroidal writer.

A moose once bit my sister. No, really!

Yes, in the movie version of computer reality, error-checking was never invented. Thus, the only alternative to a condition that can't be solved is to whirl around until you explode. (In actual reality, we have of course perfected the unhelpful error message as an alternative to exploding).

LOL. "Then later on, after it's gotten out of sync with Production, we might even check it in to source control." Too painfully true.

All this reminds me of when a mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer were told of a man who is across the room from a woman and moves half the remaining distance to the woman every minute. The mathematician said, "The man will never reach the woman." The physicist said, "In twenty minutes the man will be within an atomic radius of the woman and can be said to have reached her." The engineer said, "No problem, in five minutes that guy will be close enough for all practical purposes."

Please adjust this joke to the sexual proclivities of your audience as needed.

Naw, that's just an old colloquial Kentucky term for "wife".
