(-:(-:(-:THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD:-):-):-)

Posted on 11/16/2012 4:53:41 AM PST by Lucky9teen

All these petitions at the whitehouse.gov website asking for states to secede.....it's just silliness. I mean, I agree with the sentiment, but really? You're going to create an account, give them your name and contact info at the whitehouse.gov website and sign something that says you don't like the federal government? Does anyone remember Obama and his secret "kill lists"? It's just silliness, I say. Does anyone think Obama will actually care what these petitions say? Does anyone think anything will be done about it?  Does anyone think this federal government will take this seriously?

Look at some other silly petitions I found at the whitehouse.gov website:

Assist with reinstating Scott “The Torg” Torgerson back on the air at 97.1 The FAN, an ESPN Radio affiliate in Columbus
254 Signatures

Grant refugee status for LGBTQIA people and cut foreign aid until repeal of “Kill the Gays” Bill in Uganda!
1,712 Signatures

Implement a Policy for Declassifying Discoveries by NSA Mathematicians
1,029 Signatures

Force all states to pay their portion of the national debt before they can secede from the union
3,455 Signatures

have the President to attend a Fark.com party. If scheduling does not permit, at least have a beer with Drew Curtis
777 Signatures

Federally Legalize Marijuana
13,768 Signatures

Make Election Day a Federal Holiday in an effort to increase voter accessibility and promote democratic culture
9,113 Signatures

Deport Everyone That Signed A Petition To Withdraw Their State From The United States Of America.
17,614 Signatures

Strip the Citizenship from Everyone who Signed a Petition to Secede and Exile Them
10,997 Signatures

sign an executive order barring job discrimination based on sexual orientation & gender identity by federal contractors.
3,339 Signatures

3,936 Signatures

Invite Jacques Fresco of the venus project to the white house as a consultant on rebuilding a sustainable economy.
1,539 Signatures

outlaw offending prophets of major religions
37,167 Signatures


Best Layoff Letter Ever

Dear Employees:
As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama is our President and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way. To compensate for these increases, our prices would have to increase by about 10%.

But since we cannot increase our prices right now due to the dismal state of the economy, we will have to lay off sixty of our employees instead. This has really been bothering me since I believe we are family here and I didn't know how to choose who would have to go.

So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lots and found sixty 'Obama' bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go. I can't think of a fairer way to approach this problem.

They voted for change......I gave it to them.

I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

Every time someone on Star Trek says, “Fire at Will” I get my hopes up, but they never hit Riker.

What marketing genius thought we would want to eat a product called “Chease Whiz” anyway? Was it the same guy who thought of “Gray Poop On Mustard?”

Went to go Vacuum a friend’s apt yesterday and while I’m vacuuming for her, she starts up about the election. The next thing you know, I almost run the machine up her drapes and had to shut it down...Just goes to show you that you can’t mix politics and sucking machines — oh wait politics IS a BIG sucking machine!

A little girl was sitting on her grandfather’s lap as he read her a bedtime story. From time to time, she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek. She was alternately stroking her own cheek, then his again. Finally she spoke up, “Grandpa, did God make you?” “Yes, sweetheart,” he answered, “God made me a long time ago.” “Oh,” she paused, “grandpa, did God make me too?” “Yes, indeed, honey,” he said, “God made you just a little while ago.” Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, “God’s getting better at it, isn’t he?”

A couple were involved in a very bad automobile accident. The wife’s face was horribly scarred. After many months a team of doctors were brought in to assess the situation.

They decided that they could fix her up but it would take a huge amount of skin which could not be taken from the women without leaving more scars and more serious side effects.

Her husband stood up and said, “I have a large backside. You can take the skin from there no one will even notice anyway”.

After a series of operations the wife’s face was even more beautiful than ever.

She was so happy she exclaimed to her husband that she would do anything he wanted for sacrificing himself for her.

“I don’t want anything.”, he answered. “My reward is every time I see your mother kiss your cheek”.
