A guy walks into a Newfoundland library and says to the librarian, “Excuse me Miss, I wants a book on suicide.”
She stops doing her tasks, looks at him over the top of her glasses and says, “Fuck off, you wont bring it back!”
Thanks Garrett!
I know using “very” for the V blog title is a stretch, but this was too funny to pass up!

Funny. Totally my type of humor!
Great idea on the reverse alphabet posts by the way. Keep it going!

Should I admit I often have to read jokes more than once to understand them?
No, I shouldn’t.

Jody… tsk tsk. You see, the guy is asking for a book on suicide. If he uses it, then he can’t return it. What makes the joke funny is that the librarian seems more concerned about the book than she is about the gentleman. As well, she uses profane language in an unexpected way. It’s the incongruous behavior that sparks the humour. What makes the joke unfunny is explaining it.
Get it? Did you laugh?

I think I poke fun at myself to prompt such responses, to see how much of a jackass you can be. I still don’t think you’ve reached your potential.

Ok… now you are just trying to hurt my feeling. That’s right feeling not feelings. I only get one at a time. Right now I’m feeling crushed. But I’ll get over that around suppertime when I start feeling hungry.
