| There was
an old couple. One day, early in the morning, the old man began to say
"Merry Xmas, merry Xmas", and his wife punched off his teeth and the
old man says "Mary I die , Mary I die"
Translator's explanation: "the man says "Happy new Year" in Spanish and not Merry Xmas. In English, we loose the game of word between the word "HAPPY" - feliz and the name of his wife which also means HAPPY- felisa. The funny thing is that the man wishes people HAPPY new year, and then a few seconds later tells his wife he is dying, which sounds instead as "happy I die!" The closest thing I could find was the similarity between "merry" and the name "Mary". But it doesn´t really have the same effect." Once upon a time there were three boys. The first boy´s name was "Clubs", the second was "Bridge", and the third boy´s name was "My Balls". Looking for a job, they visited a lady who asked their names. |
"My name´s
CLUBS", "Mine is BRIDGE", and "Mine is MY BALLS". The lady
decided that they were bad boys, and did not give them any work.
Then, they went to a gentleman asking for work. The man said that before they could get work, the needed to go into the military. So the boys went to the military. In the camp, a colonel asked their names "My name´s CLUBS", "Mine is BRIDGE" , and "Mine is MY BALLS". The colonel said "Ill-bred people! You will have to die!". He ordered the soldiers to prepare their arms, and aim at CLUBS! They shot him. Then, the colonel told the soldiers to aim at BRIDGE, and BANG! They shot him. |
Finally, the
colonel said "AIM AT MY BALLS!" And, all the soldiers aimed at the
colonel´s balls.
GUESS I go out of my home, and buy the "beautiful". I come back home, and I cry with it. What is it? Tell me if you want that I want that you want me to want Talia Some ants wanted to cross a river. An elephant came by, and started to step on them. One ant hid in a tree above the elephant´s neck. The other ants shouted to him: "Hang the elephant! Hang him!" |

it, only God in Heaven with his great power. (the nut).
