Educational Jokes

Psychologists have discovered that the manner in which people eat Oreo cookies provides great insight into their personalities. Choose which method best describes your favorite method of eating Oreos:

1. The whole thing all at once.
2. One bite at a time
3. Slow and methodical nibbles examining the results of each bite afterwards.
4. In little feverous nibbles.
5. Dunked in some liquid (milk, coffee...).
6. Twisted apart, the inside, then the cookie.
7. Twisted apart, the inside, and toss the cookie.
8. Just the cookie, not the inside.
9. I just like to lick them, not eat them.
10.I don't have a favorite way because I don't like Oreos.


Your Personality:

1. The whole thing:
This means you consume life with abandon, you are fun to be with, exciting, carefree with some hint of recklessness. You are totally irresponsible. No one should trust you with his or her children.

2. One bite at a time:
You are lucky to be one of the 5.4 billion other people who eat their Oreos this very same way. Just like them, you lack imagination, but that's okay, not to worry, you're normal.

3. Slow and Methodical:
You follow the rules. You're very tidy and orderly. You're very meticulous in every detail with every thing you do to the point of being anal retentive and irritating to others. Stay out of the fast lane if you're only going to go the speed limit.

4. Feverous Nibbles:
Your boss likes you because you get your work done quickly. You always have a million things to do and never enough time to do them. Mental breakdowns and suicides run in your family. Valium and Ritalin would do you good.

5. Dunked:
Every one likes you because you are always up beat. You like to sugar coat unpleasant experiences and rationalize bad situations into good ones. You are in total denial about the shambles you call a life. You have a propensity towards narcotic addiction.

6. Twisted apart, the inside, and then the cookie:
You have a highly curious nature. You take pleasure in breaking things apart to find out how they work, though not always able to put them back together, so you destroy all the evidence of your activities. You deny your involvement when things go wrong. You are a compulsive liar and exhibit deviant, if not criminal, behavior.

7. Twisted apart, the inside, and then toss the cookie:
You are good at business and take risk that pay off. You take what you want and throw the rest away. You are greedy, selfish, mean, and lack feelings for others. You should be ashamed of yourself. But that's ok, you don't care, you got yours.

8. Just the cookie, not the inside:
You enjoy pain.

9. I just like to lick them, not eat them:
Stay away from small furry animals and seek professional medical help - immediately.

10. I don't have a favorite way, I don't like Oreos:
You probably come from a rich family, and like to wear nice things, and go to upscale restaurants. You are particular and fussy about the things you buy, own, and wear. Things have to be just right. You like to be pampered. You are a prissy.

LOL! Anybody who kicks in $5000.00 at the start of the FReepathon is number one in my book!

Absolutely! Unless someone sent me $5k, then they’d be number one.

[Lady Jag]

New Yorker was forced to take a day off from work to appear for a minor traffic summons. He grew increasingly restless as he waited hour after endless hour for his case to be heard.

When his name was called late in the afternoon, he stood before the judge, only to hear that court would be adjourned for the rest of the afternoon and he would have to return the next day.

"What for?!?!?" he snapped at the judge.

His honor, equally irked by a tedious day and sharp query, roared out loud: "Twenty dollars contempt of court! That's why!"
Then, noticing the man checking his wallet, the judge relented:  "That's all right. You don't have to pay now."

The young man replied, "I know. I'm just seeing if I have enough for two more words."

[rockinqsranch]

There’s nothing about smashing up the cookies and using them as crust in Lime Pie. That’s the only reason I/we buy Oreo’s. Wonder what sort of personality THAT would depict LOL.

[rockinqsranch]

Re: Post# 13. I had to go out for supplies so I went by the little mailbox place and bought the stamp and mailed it, so.......LOL....”checks in the mail”.

[Lady Jag]

Are you thinking that someone doesn’t want her to be president?

[rockinqsranch]

“Come on, you snarf a cookie while smashing the rest.”

Actually not. We usually purchase the Oreo Cookies when they go on sale, stash them in the pantry, forget about them, then upon rediscovering the stale old cookies months later that taste terrible, smash them up and rejuvenate their flavor in the oven as a pie crust, then add the filling and VOILA!

We bake from scratch a lot, so have Peanut Butter, Chocolate chip, and Chocolate Chip-Raisin-Oatmeal cookies freshly baked all the time. The Oreo’s are purchased only to smash for pie crusts when we remember they are in the pantry.

Greetings to you from The People’s Republic of New Jersey. Where there are still a few conservatives!

Double Stuff? Is that an oreo?

[Lady Jag]

[Fiddlstix]

I am thinking...
This Thread Needs a BIG...

Just Bumping thru...
Be back later
P.S.Click the Pics

[rockinqsranch]

Uh Oh...I was joking. “Double Stuff” is an Oreo with double the filling in it you can buy if you’re into the split the cookie and lick the filling bit. I’m not, nor is my wife, so we just buy the regulars for the purpose that of which has been described.

Sorry ‘bout that LOL.

I tried the “Double Stuff” once, but was too rich as in too much shortening and sugar for my taste. It was like overdoing a good thing was the opinion at the time IIRC.

[roamer]

Is’t that something!! But that is the way it looks.

[Lady Jag]

I rarely have any cookies at all. It's a whole strange aisle in the supermarket for me. You have me craving one now.

[Lady Jag]

WHO COULD COULD POSSIBLY WANT HER TO FAIL?

[Deetes]

BIG BUMP :-))

[roamer]

HAND 'EM OVER!
 

 

I finished off the , would you like some of these ?  Please help yourself.

While I was I heard that Bill Clinton was in California.  Wonder if Bill Clinton and Jim Robinson got together for coffee for a few minutes *s*.
