In the ethics class, the teacher was lecturing about the gratitude owed to teachers.
The teacher asked the class:
– Can you give me a proverb about teachers?
The class fell silent. The teacher gave a hint:
– This saying contains the words “you” and “should”.
Still silence. The teacher provided another clue:
– This saying includes both “not” and “challenge”.
The class remained quiet. The teacher, getting frustrated, said:
– This saying has 6 words, including “teacher” and “do”. What is it?
At the back of the class, a timid hand was raised.
– Sir, that is the saying “Being your teacher, you should not challenge”.
Half the vice
Two wives were talking about their husbands who were involved in various vices.
– My husband used to be addicted to smoking, but now he has quit half of it, sister. He only smokes as much as half of before.
The other sister replied gloomily:
– My husband has also given up half of his vices.
– Why are you still sad?
– Well, with “drinking”, he has given up drinking; with “flirting”, he has given up flirting; with “gambling”, he has given up gambling; with “lottery”, he has given up betting… Do you think that’s not a sad life?
The lost pendulum
A young man had been eagerly awaiting the birth of his first son for a long time. Finally, that day was approaching.
He instructed his father:
– When my son is born, don’t call my office to say that I have become a father of a baby boy, because if everyone in the office finds out, I will have to treat them all. Just leave me a message that the clock has arrived. That will be our signal about the baby’s birth.
A few days later, his wife gave birth, but it was a girl. The father thought: “If I tell him the clock hasn’t arrived, he will misunderstand and think something has happened to the baby and will rush here.”
So he called his son’s office and left a message: “The clock has just arrived, but the pendulum has been lost.”
Heavy insult
A couple boarded a bus at the bus station. The husband looked quite young, while the wife appeared much older than him.
As they got on the bus, the wife overheard some women sitting behind them commenting:
– Wow, that wife looks so old; she seems more like the sister of her husband.
The wife felt embarrassed and angry at the insulting remarks, her face flushed with rage. Another older woman sitting next to her noticed her unusual demeanor and asked:
– What’s wrong that you look so upset?
Finding someone to share her feelings, the wife turned to the other passenger and complained:
– I’m upset because those women behind insulted me.
Hearing this, the other passenger turned to the husband and scolded him:
– Hey, why do you let them insult your mother like that?
>>> Why are you flirting with my wife?
Why are you flirting with my wife?
Sometimes, what is leftover food at one house can be a delicacy at another.
Two men were talking to each other:
– Do you like a foolish woman?
– Of course not!
– What about a woman who smokes and drinks?
– No!
– How about those who can’t cook?
– No!
– What about the fierce ones?
– Not at all!
– Then why are you flirting with my wife?
