You’ve been seeing this technique just about every weekday since I restarted posting. Just for fun I thought I would do a quick tutorial on how it’s done. This is an easy one, so give it a try. You can even make it really large to do awesome desktop backgrounds that will make people think you’ve got amazing art skills! Have fun! 🙂
Stan got a job down at the brewery, and things seemed to be working well.
One day, Stan’s wife got a knock at the door. When she answered, there was a representative from the brewery standing there. She knew the worst had happened.
“You said there was an accident, but I must know how he died,” she pleaded.
“He drowned in a vat of our finest ale.”
“Well, at least he went quickly, right?” the widow sobbed.
“Oh no, Ma’am,” replied the representative. “He got out three times to pee before he finally succumbed.”
An older man was scanning the area for his wife while pushing his cart through Costco. Suddenly he crashed pretty hard into a younger man’s cart.
“I’m so sorry, sir,” the young man explained “I came here with my wife, but we got separated, and I was looking for her instead of where I was going.”
“That’s quite alright, young man,” the older gentleman began. “I was just looking for my wife too. Maybe if we describe our wives to each other, we can help one another search for our respective spouses.”
“Well,” the young man began, “She is 24 years old, tall, with long blond hair, green eyes, long legs, huge boobs, wearing tight white shorts, a halter top, and no bra. What does your wife look like?”
The older man said, “It doesn’t matter. Let’s look for yours.”
A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel for a convention and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories.
After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse.
“But why?” they asked, as they moved off.
“Because”, he said, “I can’t stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer.”
Three prostitutes were sitting at the bar bragging about how much they could take.
The first one holds up four fingers “I can take that inside me” she says.
“Well, I can take this,” says the second, holding up a fist.
The third on sneered and said, “Amateurs,” as she slowly slid down the bar stool.
Suzy came in from playing outside and went up to sit on her grandfather’s lap. “Grandpa,” said, little Suzy, “will you make some frog sounds for me?”
Puzzled by this request, her grandfather asked, “Why?”
“Because,” explained Suzy, “Daddy says that when you croak, we’re all going to Disneyland!”
There was a lady in her 90’s who became a bit of local celebrity since she had recently gotten married. The local news station decided to interview her. The interviewer asked questions about what it was like to be newlywed in her 90’s.
“This isn’t my first husband, so it’s not much different than the others,” she replied with a smile.
“Oh? How many husbands have you had?” the interviewer inquired.
“This one will be my fourth,” she replied. “I was married in my 20’s to a banker, then my 40’s to a circus performer. After that I married a preacher.”
“What does your current husband do?”
“Oh he’s a funeral director.”
The interviewer laughed and then asked how she came to marry these men from such different backgrounds and personalities.
“It always made sense to me,” she replied. “I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go.”
A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was recklessly speeding down Main Street.
“But officer,” the man began, “I can explain.”
“Just be quiet,” snapped the officer. “I’m going to let you cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back.”
“But, officer, I just wanted to say,…”
“And I said keep quiet! You’re going to jail!”
A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and said, “Lucky for you that the chief’s at his daughter’s wedding. He’ll be in a good mood when he gets back.”
“Not likely,” answered the fellow in the cell. “I’m the groom.”
What’s the difference between a Jew and a pizza? A pizza doesn’t scream when you put it in the oven.
What’s the difference between a black man and a pizza? A pizza can feed a family of four.
What’s the worse part about being a black Jew? You have to sit at the back of the oven.
A couple of hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn’t seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He pleads to the operator, “I think my friend is dead! What can I do?”
The operator, in a calm soothing voice says, “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.”
There is a silence, then a shot is heard.
The guy’s voice comes back on the line and says, “OK, now what?”
So it's been kind of a mixed bag this year. Sadly, my Aunt Pam passed away back in February, then my cat, Alex, died in June. On the plus side, I got Murphy in August, and I finally managed to pay off what was left of my old revolving credit card debt that I've had hanging over me for 40 years.
Born on June 22, 2025, Murphy is about 6 months old as of this post. I picked him up off Craig's List for $10 when he was about 7 weeks old. Since then I've spent about $1300 over 5 vet visits to make sure he got all his shots and yes that includes neutering. Where Alex merely tolerated Gail, Murphy adores her. and the two are regularly seen snuggling up to one another. Those photos aren't staged. These two are really that close.
In spite of everything, I'm still gainfully employed. it's highly doubtful AI is going to take my job anytime soon, so I guess I can be thankful for that. On the other hand I recently found out I have chronic kidney disease, so that's no beuno. I won't find out until January if lifestyle and medication changes are going to be enough to keep it from progressing. Fingers crossed.
On a lighter note, I've started occasionally live-streaming Tarot card readings on Twitch. No, I don't actually believe in magical mumbo-jumbo, but there is an art to the craft. I look at Tarot as basically being psychology with flashcards. There are 78 cards, and each card can have different and multiple meanings depending on its context. When you know what you're doing you can ALWAYS match randomly dealt cards to the context. Form a coherent narrative around the cards and you can actually gain an altered perspective on your situation that may give you more confidence in facing your problems.
So that's about it for 2025. Not gonna lie: While it wasn't all bad, this year sucked pretty hard. I can't make any promises, but I fully intend on putting out more than 2 comics in 2026, and I might even include a few more jokes and rants.
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.
