Friday Sillies #54 – Thanksgiving

Posted on November 23, 2012

It’s Friday….but not just any Friday. That’s right, it’s Black Friday. I hope your shopping pleasure if you can call it pleasant,  wasn’t a wild,  mind-blowing experience. Last year we went out on Black Friday. This year…uh-huh, it’s not gonna happen.  My OCD and claustrophobic side says one time is enough.

That being said, if you’re like me and prefer to do your shopping from the comfort of your keyboard then it’s time to take a little break. Let’s give our weary eyes rest from browsing site after site shopping for that perfect gift for that VIP on our Christmas list to enjoy a few minutes to simply laugh. Come on, kick back and enjoy the fun…

A man in Jacksonville calls his son in San Diego the day before Thanksgiving and says, “I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough. 

 “Pop, what are you talking about?” the son screams. 

“We can’t stand the sight of each other any longer,” the father says. “We’re sick of each other, and I’m sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Denver and tell her.” 

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. “Like heck, they’re getting divorced,” she shouts, “I’ll take care of this,” She calls Jacksonville immediately, and screams at her father, “You are NOT getting divorced. Don’t do a single thing until I get there. I’m calling my brother back, and we’ll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don’t do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?” and hangs up. 

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. “Okay,” he says, “they’re coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way.”

    I am not much of a shopper in stores or on line. I have discovered CASH or Cheque. It comes in one size fits all.

    LOL, those are all great! Of course, yesterday was not Thanksgiving here in Canada, and we don’t really have a “Black Friday”…traditionally speaking. I think most Canadians just hop across the border. But I do see more stores starting to participate in the event. Not me though.
    I am all comfy and cozy in my bed with coffee mug in hand…quite content to let others get all the big savings….and headaches! LOL

    (I have my post done to link up, but the linky says closed. Did I sleep the whole day?? heehee
