Murphy's Moment
As mentioned a few weeks ago, I lost my beloved orange tabby, Alex, on June 19, 2025. While he had an amazing 16 year run, his passing came much sooner than it should have. I still miss him dearly.
Fortunately cats are pretty easy to come by. All you need is Craigslist and a little patience. After watching religiously for about 7 weeks, anyone could find the exact cat they were looking for... and that's how I got Murphy! Come to think of it, that's kinda how I got Alex as well.
Murphy was born on June 22, 2025. This tasty little hash brown was listed Tuesday night. I texted the number the next morning and went right round to go see him that afternoon. He was perfect, so I paid the $10 "rehoming" fee and took him to be my newest, bestest buddy.
Ten bucks probably sounds like a pretty good deal, right? Well... Yesterday he had his first vet appointment, and the bill wasn't cheap. I already knew he had ear mites because he had been scratching at his ears, so I swabbed them and looked at it under an old microscope of mine. Let's just say they threw in the ear mite cleaning FOR FREE because they were already able to cover a yacht payment with everything else they charged me for!
His follow up booster shot is in 3 weeks. Cha-ching! smh.
As of this Sunday, I've had him a total of about 4 days, and so far he's cost me well over $500! At least he's comfortable and feels right at home. While he can't jump up on the bed yet, his needle like claws allow him to climb up the side of the mattress like Spider-cat, and then he likes to snuggle up with me an Gail... Which kinda worries me, cuz him being so small and all, he's liable to get flattened!
To recap: I got another cat. He's orange, he's smol, and he's a little spitfire. That's about all I have to say on the subject at the moment, but I'm sure there will be more photo ops along the way.

What is Flush Twice?
Flush Twice has been around since May of 2003. It started out as a JOTD (Joke of the Day) website. New jokes were published every weekday. Over the years, good jokes were increasingly hard to come by, and eventually they got so rare that I just stopped trying to publish them.
Since 2004 there has also been an eponymous comic. I still occasionally publish a new one on Saturdays. It’s also rare anymore, but sometimes it happens.
Here lately I’ve been posting a “Link of the Day”. For the time being, I will be featuring a new website from my enormous collection of bookmarked websites every weekday. None of it is solicited promotions, and no one is paying me to feature their site. These are just websites that at one time I thought were interesting enough to add to my bookmarks folder.
I highly encourage using some kind of ad blocking extension before clicking on any of these links. You’ll also hear me say this phrase a lot about these posts: “They can’t all be winners.” But it’s better than just leaving the site abandoned.
The jokes were generously provided by friends and visitors such as yourself. I want to express my eternal thanks to everyone over the years who helped contribute to the collection.
So what is it that makes a joke funny?
It all boils down to a sudden shift in perception. The story starts you thinking one way, then the punchline turns that thinking on its ear. The art of the joke is to craft a short story that isn’t overly contrived, then deliver a punchline that suddenly shifts your perception about the story you were being told.
Many of the jokes on this site are offensive, and I make no apologies for it. Offensive jokes work by making the reader uncomfortable through the use of a taboo subject thus enhancing the underlying humor. Without the offensive element, the joke would simply not be as funny.
(Just thought you might like to know.)
Yes, it’s a usable search function! Try it!

The Secret of Longevity
A 107-year-old woman was asked by a television crew what was the secret of her longevity.
“I’m not sure but I think it has something to do with the fact that I gave up sex,” she said.
“Oh! When did you give up sex?” asked the intrigued reporter.
She thought for a minute and said, “Oh I imagine it’s been fifteen to twenty years ago I suppose.”
“I see,” said the reporter. “And why did you give up sex?”
“I had to,” she replied. “I like older men, and there just weren’t any left!”
Lunch Time Horsey Ride
One day, little Mikey came home from kindergarten for lunch.
Not finding his mother in the kitchen or the living room, he headed upstairs to check her bedroom.
He opened the door, and saw his father stripped naked on top of his mother heavily into the act of lovemaking.
Not wanting to traumatize the boy, the parents continued as if nothing was wrong.
Mikey watched for a moment and asked, “Daddy, can I climb on and have a horsey ride?”
Still not wanting to traumatize the boy the father said, “Of course, Son, we’re a family.”
So Mikey climbed on top and after a few more minutes his mother started moaning and writhing wildly.
“Hang on Dad!”, cried Mikey. “This is where me and the mailman usually fall off!”

New Stars!
Introducing “kk Star Ratings”.
OK, so I’m not entirely sold on this one yet, but it’s not the bloated abandonware we were using before. I haven’t fully examined the code to see if it messes with the privacy policy, but so far it looks very kosher.
Things I like about it:
1. It just works! (No short codes or modifying themes to make it work.)
2. I can upload different images if I want! (Instead of stars, how about sandwiches? OK, maybe not…)
3. It supports ten stars! (Or any reasonable number.)
4. It’s got hover tips! (Hover over a stars to see what they say!)
5. Much, much smaller than GD Star Rating.
6. It’s free as in beer. (Not a crippleware advertisement for their “pro” version.)
Things I’m not too thrilled about:
1. I have no idea how it works yet. (For all I know it could melt my database.)
2. There is no way to see who is voting. (Yes Michigan and Minnesota, I could see your IP addresses and how you were voting under the old system.)
3. No way to import GD Star Rating data. (Oh well.)
4. The author hasn’t updated it in a while. (So it might be abandonware after all.)
There’s a silver lining to the last one. Since this plugin is so much smaller, I might be able to wrap my head around what it’s doing and how it functions. Then if I’m lucky I might just be able to rewrite it to suit my needs. I actually did that with the plugin that allows these side posts. I rewrote someone else’s code, and now it’s mine.
Anti-Scraping Plugin
I also wanted to mention there’s a plugin that I’m trying out in order to combat the content scraping bots. If you ask for pages too fast it will request that you solve a captcha to prove that you’re human. I really doubt that this plugin is going to be around much longer, but if you see the captcha, I’m sorry about that. Don’t freak. Just type it in, and it should leave you alone after that. Um, yeah… That didn’t last long.
OK, so there you go. Feel free to rate the jokes again, and let me know if you have any other problems or concerns.

The Kidnapping
The husband came home from work one day to find his wife had disappeared.
He got very worried and gathered up all his friends to search for her with no success.
Two days later the man returned home to find her in the kitchen.
He asked her what happened and why she hasn’t been home for so long.
She replied, “These four men kidnapped and had wild sex with me for a week.”
The shaken husband tried to wrap his head around what she was telling him and asked, “It’s only been two days, so what do you mean when you say a week?”
“Well I just stopped by to get something to eat before I went back.”
Navy Blue Silk Pajamas
A man called home to his wife and said, “Honey I have been asked to fly to Canada with my boss and several of his friends for fishing. We’ll be gone for a Long weekend. This is a good opportunity for me to get that promotion I’ve been wanting so could you please pack enough clothes for a 3 day weekend, and get out my rod and tackle box from the attic? We’re leaving at 4:30 pm from the office, so I’ll swing by the house to pick up my things. Oh! And please pack my new navy blue silk pajamas.”
The wife thought something about this sounded a bit fishy, but being the good wife, she did exactly what her husband asked.
Following the long weekend he came home a little tired, but otherwise looking good. The wife welcomed him warmly and asked if he caught many fish.
“Oh yes! Lots of Walleye, some Bass, and a few Pike,” said the husband. Then he abruptly changed the subject and asked, “But why didn’t you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to?”
“I did,” she replied in an icy tone. “They were in your tackle box.”
The ER
A woman was patiently waiting in the emergency room.
The doctor walked in and asked her “So what kind of problem are you experiencing today?”
“Doctor,” the lady began, “I have been having trouble with my bottom. It’s been hurting really bad.”
“Why don’t you lay on your stomach so I can take a look at it,” the doctor requested.
So, the woman turned over and the doctor started to examine her rear end.
After a moment, the doctor asked the young lady, “Ma’am, have you had anal sex lately?”
“No, why?” came the worried response.
The doctor raised an eyebrow and asked, “Would you like to?”

Mother’s Day
If your mom is still with you, don’t forget to give her a card and a hug.
What I wouldn’t do for that hug right now…
I miss you, Mom.

Starlet’s Strategy
A sweet, beautiful young would-be starlet went to Hollywood to seek her fortune.
At her first power cocktail party she asked the host, “Who’s the most powerful man in the room?”
“That would be Bob, over there by the caviar,” he said.
The young woman walked over to Bob and said, “Excuse me, Bob, would you mind stepping back behind this column? I’d like to talk to you.”
As Bob and the girl stepped behind the column, she said, “Bob, I’m gonna unzip your fly, take out your cock, and give you the best blowjob you ever had!”
Bob smiled slightly and said, “Well, OK. But what’s in it for me?”
