PC humor?

Posted by bluegill @bluegill, Aug 6 11:25am

Lately I've been vacillating between focused motivation and deep sadness regarding my future. I find that strange humor can be very helpful to knock me out of a funk (If there is a related thread, please direct me to it).

I just skimmed through some New Yorker magazines, and the cartoons there are delightfully absurd.

I also take great comfort in cat videos on Youtube, with "I am Maru" being my favorite.

I also like dark humor, but I might offend someone if I post some of that here.

So, what puts a smile on your face?

OK, the men's ultimate question, especially for those of us with PC incontinence:
Q, Boxers or briefs????
A, Depends !

U.S. spelling: "humor"

Canadian and UK spelling "humour" with an extra "u" (you)

Spelling is my strong suit!

MyTrue story: In hospital room after prostrate surgery and the PA form urology doctor (whom I’d met in the office) comes in, says “Good Morning . . . (pause while he takes down the sheet to see my incision and catheter) . . then says, “Oh! I remember you!”

Another true story: Several years ago I had bad BPH and bladder was shut down for some 30-hours. Quite painful, cramps, and pain. My son drove me to the ER. Laying there waiting for Dr I finally got a nurse to put in a catheter. RELIEF at last!!! When I was empty she took the bag away, turned and proudly told a colleague, “Got 1,250 ml from this one!”

Chapter 2 to above: two weeks later at urologist to find the cause and get catheter out and prepped for exam, it was done by a pleasant and rather attractive nurse. So when she started to prep me for the exam (cystoscope she took hold of my penis and said, “bet they didn’t do this for you in the ER” while she was rubbing me. Of course I was surprised to get this very exciting, personal attention when simultaneously she said “Numbing jell.” And it started to work - - - numbing what I so wanted to enjoy. Life is cruel!
