What, with a cubic mug? Don't I end up with a beer and a root beer?

I've been rooting around the last few threads looking for a decently lame joke. Unfortunately, I don't see much to root for and I'm not sure what's at the root of the problem.

These jokes about roots are getting ab-surd.

If relationship counselors were lawyers:

The problem here isn't that your wife is lying to you. The problem is that YOU believe her. Why do you believe her? This wouldn't have happened if you hadn't believed her.

Plaintiff: Because I love her too much. *cries*
Lawyer: There it is, your honor. It is HIS fault. Not my clients'. No further questions.

Drat - I had an eye test last week. Now I'm going to have to wait eighteen months to find out if they've heard that one a million times before...

There were three sailors in a lifeboat. They had saved four cigarettes when their ship went down but all the matches were wet! Fortunately one of the sailors had a bright idea - he threw one of the cigarettes overboard, and then they were a cigarette lighter.

With not much to do in the lifeboat except look out at an endless ocean, each sailor really was a man over bored.

Not necessarily. It once happened to a pirate ship, but they got lucky, they had Blackboard with them.

Also, if anyone saw the movie "The Man Who would be King" with Sean Connery, Michael Caine, and Christopher Plummer that came out around 1977, there is a line in there where Michael Caine ( P.T. Carnehan) gets aggravated with Sean Connery (Daniel Dravot) and tells him "I think you need a physic". :) ## \\ ## See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Would_Be_King_(film)
Here's one I'm going to repeat from about 2-3 days ago. (See above). Perhaps @fresh_42 will find it humorous. :)
