  • I am thankful for guys (males) who post (on Xanga) short, funny, useful
    entries (prime example). For now, I will recover from reading soooo many solid blocks
    of girly languaged essays on feelings by going to class and playing
    Hangman or let's see... maybe Word Scramble on Yahoo! Mobile Games!

    So in the spirit of light-hearted Xanga entries, I present to you the world's funniest religious joke by Emo Phillips. David, you reminded me of him.

    This morning I received
    thrilling news: a joke I wrote more than 20 years ago has been voted
    the funniest religious joke of all time! In case you've missed it, here
    it is:

    Once I
    saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said,
    "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

    He
    said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A
    Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said,
    "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I
    said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said,
    "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or
    Northern Liberal Baptist?"

    He said, "Northern
    Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist
    Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?"
    He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said,
    "Me, too!"

    Northern
    Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern
    Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said,
    "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I
    said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

  • LOL that is clever

  • What, you don't want us to get in touch with our feeeeeeeeelings?

    I actually understand, despite my frequent writings.  I'm a bit fed up with my own feeeeeeeelings at the moment too.  I promise to post only short, funny things for the next 24 hours.

  • I'm still trying to memorize that one Nick! :)
    Emo has a better setup for that joke in his performance at the Hasty Pudding Theatre. Once I get the joke itself down, I'll try memorizing that version of it. Then maybe I'll memorize a formula for my Economics class, but really, who has that kind of time?

  • i didn't really push him over

  • I am still laughing at the book that you recommended. 

  • i remember being pretty furious that you didn't want to read about my feeeeeeelings. the good natured cheer that you hear in my comment? totally fake. i was fuming on the inside.

    i got over it.
