My friend got a degree in egyptology, but can't get a job. So he's spending more money to get a PhD, such that he can work teaching other people egyptology.

In his case, college is literally a pyramid scheme.

A guy phones in an order of pizza for delivery.

Customer: "That'll be one large super supreme, please."

Clerk: "Would you like it cut into six or eight pieces?"

Customer: "Better make it six. I don't think I could manage to eat eight."

Two guys walk into a bar.

Guy #1: "I'll have some H2O."

Guy #2: "I'll have some H2O, too."

They both down their drinks and guy #2 dies.

I didn't know about that chemical (although I could imagine it had to do with radioactive material), so I did a little search on the web for it. The first match was a water store. I guess they like the play on words but didn't know that the chemical really exists:

What is water? Is that this thing which is sold in bottles with the note: for external use only?
