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.

Trust me, You don’t want to be a delivery driver. I was a Fedex Delivery Driver for 2 years.. You wouldn’t like it.. People are dumb asses, and some can be very rude, and can ask some of the dumbest questions…Not to mention when you have to lift and carry a 100 pound box up a flight of stairs.. Not to mention fighting the traffic.. and I can give you a 1000 other reasons why… Thats why I got out of it….
And that’s why I don’t order from C he wy anymore. To get their free delivery you have to order a ton of food, and those boxes are just too heavy for residential deliveries.
But I have to get out of this factory. It’s not what it used to be, and it has gotten so much worse. The working conditions are rapidly deteriorating and OSHA could have a field day in there. Did I mention the hostility levels are off the charts as well? Point out an issue if you want a target on your back.
I’m sensing the onset of their death throes.
Dude, the verb is “roll”. “Role” is a noun, like a role in a play.
Don’t call me a grammar Nazi. I’m part of the alt-Write.
Finally! I was wondering WHEN you were going to catch that!
Honestly it was a typo on my part that I caught the day after, but didn’t want to deprive you of the joy of rubbing it in. 😉
I caught it when I read it. That’s not always right when it’s posted; with your irregular updates, I don’t check for new posts all that often any more.
I hear ya. I don’t even bother to check this place that often anymore, and I’m the owner.
On the bright side, Darin has been supplying the jokes, and I’ve actually been posting comics for the past few weeks.
But most importantly, Gail has been looking absolutely adorable for her photos.
