Some cheap humour at the expense of the ladies here.. :D

How many men does it take to open a beer?
None. It should be opened when the woman brings it.

Why do women have smaller feet than men?
It's a product of Evolution enabling them to stand closer to the kitchen sink.

How do you know that a woman is about to say something intelligent?
When she starts a sentence with "A man once told me..."

How do you mend a woman's watch?
You don't; there's a clock on the stove.

Why do men fart more often than women?
Because women don't shut up long enough to build up the pressure.

When the dog's at the back door, barking, and the wife's at the front door, shouting, who do you let in first?
The dog, naturally. It shuts up as soon as you let it in.

What's worse than a male chauvinist pig?
A woman who doesn't do what she's told.

Scientists have discovered a food that reduces a woman's sex drive by 90%.
It's called wedding cake.

In the beginning, God created the world, and then he rested.
Then God created man, and rested.
Then God created woman...

and since then, neither God, nor Man, has rested.

Actually, it has been proven that 1 = 1/2:

We can re-write the infinite series 1/(1*3) + 1/(3*5) + 1/(5*7) + 1/(7*9) +...
as 1/2((1/1 - 1/3) + (1/3 - 1/5) + (1/5 - 1/7) + (1/7 - 1/9) + ... ).

All terms after 1/1 cancel, so that the sum is 1/2.

We can also re-write the series as (1/1 - 2/3) + (2/3 - 3/5) + (3/5 - 4/7) + (4/7 - 5/9) + ...

All terms after 1/1 cancel, so that the sum is 1.

Thus 1/2 = 1.

And yet they never claimed he was a roman (plus, screw Hera... well someone has too with Zeus being too busy with mortal skirts)

How to shoot your foot with programming languages

Unread postby Kalah » 01 Nov 2009, 10:54

How to shoot your foot with programming languages:

Ada: You aim at your foot and pull the trigger, but the safety stops the gun from firing. The safety won't budge until you tag your foot with a sign reading "Bullet Hole in this foot", and call the paramedics. Do so, then shoot yourself in the foot.

C: The gun arrives in 38 pieces along with a set of assembly instructions. After painstakingly assembling the pieces, you pull the trigger and the gun promptly backfires and blows your head off.

Assembly: The same as C, except you have to hand-machine all the pieces as well. When you pull the trigger, your whole house explodes.

Java: You break into someone else's home and steal their water pistol. You then make a child gun that uses .38 rounds instead of water. When you pull the trigger on the child gun, nothing happens to you, but everyone who visits your house gets shot in the foot.

Basic: You aim the gun at a straight horizontal and pull the trigger, which causes a stream of water to be squirted straight down onto your foot.

Perl: You aim the gun at your foot and pull the trigger. There is no explosion, but gravity causes the bullet to slide out of the barrel and bounce off your foot.

Lisp: You do a small part of the remaining work involved in shooting yourself in the foot. You then call yourself, and tell yourself to shoot yourself in the foot.

Pascal: The same as Ada, except when you pull the trigger a little sign pops out reading "BANG!".

C++: The same as Java, except you try to build the parent water pistol using the gun tools from the C gun. When you pull the trigger on the child gun, the parent C gun explodes, spraying water everywhere, including the chamber of the child gun. This causes the child gun to backfire, blowing your head off.

Visual C++: The same as C++, except that the bullets, the gun parts, the tools you use to put it together, the hospital you get taken to afterwards, and the ambulance that takes you there are all owned by the same company.

APL: Whenever you pull the trigger, no matter where you aim the gun, the bullet ricochets off 13 objects and lodges in your foot. The gun has been examined by ballistics experts, mechanical engineers, and even the person who made it, and none of them can figure out how it works.

FORTRAN: When you aim the gun at your foot and pull the trigger, a table indexing error causes the gun to shoot its firing pin into your foot instead of the bullet.

Just heard a great joke, although it is a bit on the... *ahem* inappropriate... type.

A penguin was driving along in his car when it suddenly gave a squeal and ground to a halt. Not knowing anything about engines, he was pleased to see a polar bear stopping to help. The bear quickly said:
"Looks like you've just blown a seal."
The penguin quickly wiped his beak with his flippers and said, nervously:
"No, no, it's just ice cream..!"

:D
