So, I had a friend once who always liked to wear saran wrap shorts. Wherever he went, that’s all he would wear — no variation. I begged him to try other shorts, he would ever say was no. So one day, I convinced him to at least come with me to see a psychiatrist. The day of the appointment came, and I walked him into the office. The psychiatrist looked at him, and immediately said, “Well, I can clearly see your nuts.”

I wanted some honey, so I went to a local apiary to get some of my own bees.
I said, “Can I get some bees to make some of my own honey, please?” Happily, he obliged, “Sure! How many would you like?” “Twelve,” I said. He then left for a moment, and came back with a box full of buzzing bees. After looking at the box however, I noticed there were thirteen bees. “Sir, you gave me thirteen bees when I asked for twelve.” He waved the thought away casually with his hand and said, “Don’t worry, it’s a freebee.”

It is not always easy to say the right thing on the spur of the moment. We can sympathize with the chap who met an old friend after many years.
“How is your wife?” “She is in heaven,” replied the friend. “Oh, I’m sorry,” stammered the chap. Then he realized this was not the thing to say. “I mean,” he stammered, “I’m glad.” That seemed even worse so he blurted, “Well, what I really mean is, I’m surprised.”
