There was a young lady called Bright,
Who traveled far faster than light.
She went out one day,
In a relative way,
And came back the previous night.

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The bartender says "You're all idiots", and pours two beers.

If you ever wind up running DOS, make a point of doing this. It's so mindlessly amusing.

Code:

Syntax Error
A:\>If you're happy and you know it syntax error!
Syntax Error
A:\>If you're happy and you know it and you really want to show it; if you're happy and you know it syntax error!

I’m sorry dkotschessaa and Lancelot59, but I have to object to your posts on this thread today. In fact, I might have to report them. They clearly do not qualify for this thread. There is nothing remotely lame about them. That is definitely the hardest this thread has ever made me laugh. Much too witty for this thread.

My apologies. I will endeavor to be more lame in the future...

There was a young fellow named Fisk
Whose fencing was exceedingly brisk;
So fast was his action
The Lorentz contraction
Reduced his rapier to a disk.

Watson picks up a piece of sandstone and shows it to Holmes. "What could it mean?" he asks. "Sedimentary, my dear Watson!. It means our murderer is at this moment hiding in that larder with the yellow door". "But Holmes, how in blazes could you possibly deduce that?". "Lemon entry, my dear Watson!"

Love is like flatulence.

If you have to force it out, it's probably not a fart.
