So I Walked Into a Blonde Joke Today....

[ARMORMAN]

So I walked into a blonde joke today…

I was out doing my meat and potatoes (OK, more like bread and water) gig when I stopped at one of my stops, a convenience store that is run by Indians (Pacific Rim country, NOT Native American). There is a young Indian woman working behind the counter ( I am usually dealing with a young male cashier) around 18-22 years old, light, light brown skin and facially typical of that region of the world.

This stop gets 18 donuts delivered in 2 small boxes, I set the boxes on the counter and count them, then get in line to get my invoice signed and cash paid.

A blonde woman, heavy set, early to mid 40's in the line ahead of me suddenly says to the cashier,"Wow! you're the first white girl I've seen working here!"

Another blonde in the line pays for her gas gives the woman a snort of disgust and leaves.

Involuntarily, I respond,"Seriously?!??"

The cashier responds,"I've never been mistaken for a white girl before."

At that moment the male cashier comes up behind me and says," We only have 17 donuts."

"No, you have 18, I counted them," I respond.

"No there's only 17."

"Dude, there's 18."

"No there's not."

"Dude, 11+7= 18. I counted them."

At this point, I hear the blonde say,"12, 13, 14, 15…"

Nooooo…..no, no, no, no…this is not happening…..

Then the male cashier says," There is 18, I only opened one box and there was only 11. We normally get 12 in one box and six in the other."

To which I wanted to respond (quoting Ellen Ripley from the movie "Aliens"),"Did IQs drop while I was away?" But I didn't.


Cannot write this stuff…..

Without the local sentient life forms this solar system would be a lot less amusing.

Are we seriously the most advanced intelligence on this planet ? You have to wonder sometimes.

"For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

You Earthlings really crack me up sometimes. The dolphins also think you're pretty silly. The stories they tell me . . .

Sorry I missed something, but was this an ethnic joke?

The dolphins are the second most intelligent species on the planet Earth, only surpassed by mice, although many outside observers don't know about the mice.

"[Arthur Dent] learned to communicate with birds and discovered that their conversation was fantastically boring. It was all to do with wind speed, wingspans, power-to-weight ratios, and a fair bit about berries."

A convenience store that only sells 18 donuts a day? How do they stay in business? Most of the convenience stores in my area can go through 18 donuts in half an hour! Of course, there are a lot of well-insulated (don't call us fat!) people in Indiana.
