1. Drink Down

A guy walks into a bar and orders two shots. He drinks both and leaves. He does the same thing every day for a while.

One day, the bartender asks, “Why do you always order two shots?”

The guy says, “My brother and I used to drink together all the time, but now he lives far away. So, one shot is for me, and one is for him.”

The guy replies, “Yeah, he’s fine. I just quit drinking.”

2. Penguin Parade

A police officer stopped a semi-truck driver and asked for his license and registration. The officer heard odd sounds from the trailer and decided to inspect it. He found 50 penguins inside.

“Why are there 50 penguins in your truck?” the officer asked.

“They’re my buddies,” the driver replied. “We enjoy traveling together.”

“You can’t just own 50 penguins,” the officer said. “You need to take them to the zoo.”

The driver agreed and drove away. The next day, the same officer stopped the same truck and heard the same strange noises. He checked the trailer and found the same 50 penguins.

“I thought I told you to take these penguins to the zoo!” the officer exclaimed.

“I did!” the driver responded. “They had a great time. Today, we’re going to the beach.”

3. The Plasterer

A duck waddled into a pub and asked for a beer and a ham sandwich.

The bartender stared and said, “Hold on a sec! You’re a duck!”

“That’s pretty obvious,” the duck replied.

“And you talk!” shouted the bartender.

“And you hear well!” the duck said. “Now, about that beer and sandwich?”

“Oh, right, sorry,” the bartender said, pouring the duck’s beer. “We don’t get many ducks around here. What brings you in?”

“I’m working at that construction site over there,” the duck explained. “I’m a plasterer.”

The bartender was surprised, but let the duck be when he pulled out a newspaper to read.

The duck read the paper, ate his food, and left. He did this every day for two weeks.

Then, the circus came to town. The circus manager came into the pub, and the bartender said, “Hey, you’re with the circus, right? I know a duck who’d be a star in your show! He talks, drinks beer, eats sandwiches, reads the paper… he’s amazing!”

“Is that right?” the circus manager said, handing the bartender his card. “Tell him to give me a call.”

The next day, when the duck came in, the bartender said, “Hey Mr. Duck, I think I found you a fantastic job that pays really well.”

“I’m always interested in new opportunities,” the duck said. “Where is it?”

“At the circus,” the bartender answered.

“The circus?” the duck asked.

“Yep,” said the bartender.

“The circus?” the duck asked again. “The one with the big tent?”

“Exactly!” said the bartender.

“With the animals in cages and people living in trailers?” asked the duck.

“That’s the one,” said the bartender.

“And the tent is made of that heavy fabric with a hole at the top?” the duck asked.

“That’s right!” said the bartender.

The duck shook his head and said, “Why would they need a plasterer?”

4. Slowpoke Centipede

A man saw a sign at a pet store that said, “Talking Centipede $100.” He thought it was cool and bought it. When he got home, he opened the box and asked the centipede if it wanted to grab a beer. The centipede didn’t say anything, so the man thought he got ripped off.

After a while, he tried again. He shouted, “Want to go get a beer?” The centipede popped out of the box and said, “Be quiet! I heard you the first time! I’m putting my shoes on!”

5. Hell’s Handyman

An engineer died and went to Hell.

The devil was shocked because engineers don’t usually go there. Hell was a mess: the AC was busted, the pool was empty, and everything was broken.

The engineer got to work fixing things. He fixed the AC, filled the pool, and even made the roads better.

God saw that everyone in Hell was having fun, which wasn’t right. He asked the devil what was going on.

The devil said, “That engineer you sent here has been fixing everything. He’s made Hell a nice place!”

God said, “What? Engineers don’t belong in Hell! That was a mistake. Send him back so I can put him in Heaven!”

The devil said, “No way, we like him here.”

God said, “Send him back, or I’ll sue you!”

The devil laughed and said, “Where are you going to find a lawyer?”

We’re going to win for sure! Yeah, the judge already knows I’m right! No, I don’t care what they offer, we’re not backing down!”

The man answered, “I’m here to install your phone line.”

“Want some help?” offered a nearby secretary.

10. Whoa, Amen!

A man got lost in the desert. After wandering for weeks, he found a small house. He was tired and weak, so he crawled to the house and fainted.

The owner of the house, a kind and religious man, found him and helped him get better. When the man felt stronger, he asked for directions to the nearest town.

As he was leaving, he saw a horse. He asked the owner if he could borrow it. The owner agreed but said, “To make the horse go, say ‘Thank God.’ To make it stop, say ‘Amen.'”

The man didn’t really listen and said, “Okay, sure.” He got on the horse and said, “Thank God,” and the horse started walking. He said, “Thank God, thank God,” and the horse started running. Feeling brave, the man shouted, “Thank God, thank God, thank God!” and the horse went even faster.

Suddenly, he saw a cliff ahead. He tried to stop the horse, yelling, “Whoa, stop!” Then he remembered, “Amen!”

The horse stopped right at the edge of the cliff. The man took a deep breath and said, “Thank God.”

“Am I losing it?” he asked. “I keep hearing voices telling me nice things, but no one else is here.”

“It’s the peanuts,” the bartender answered.

“What?” the man asked.

“The peanuts,” the bartender said again. “They’re complimentary.”

Arrogant Neighbor Fills In My Pond – My Clever Retaliation Teaches Him Not to Underestimate an Elderly Lady

The grandchildren adore frolicking in it, and sometimes I jest they might favor the pond over me!

All was serene until Brian became my neighbor five years ago. Right from the start, he was troubled by my pond.

“Margaret!” he’d shout from beyond the fence. “Those frogs disrupt my sleep! Can’t you quiet them down?”

With a grin, I’d respond, “Oh, Brian, they’re merely serenading you. No charge at all!”

He continued to grumble. “What about the mosquitoes? Your pond is a breeding ground!”

“Now, Brian,” I’d retort, “my pond is spotless. Perhaps those mosquitoes are from the clutter in your own yard.”

He’d storm off, and I assumed he’d adjust over time. However, I misjudged.

One day, I took a short trip to visit my sister, expecting nothing more than leisurely chats and card games. I returned to a shocking sight that chilled me to the core.

Arriving home, the familiar glint of water was missing, replaced by soil. Heart plummeting, I rushed from my car.

My neighbor, kindly Mrs. Johnson, approached hastily. “Margaret! Thank goodness you’re here. I tried to halt them, but they claimed to have authorization!”

“Stop whom? What authorization?” I stammered, fixated on the muddy remnant of my once-beloved pond.

“A team arrived yesterday, tasked by a company to drain and fill your pond,” Mrs. Johnson explained. “I protested that you were away, yet they presented official documents!”

Feeling betrayed, I realized twenty years of cherished memories had vanished overnight. I knew who was responsible.

“Brian,” I clenched my fists, seething.

“What will you do?” Mrs. Johnson inquired, her expression laden with concern.

I straightened up. “Well, I’ll show him why you shouldn’t trifle with a woman like Margaret!”

Firstly, I contacted my family. My daughter Lisa was incensed. “Mom, this is unlawful! We should inform the authorities!”

“Just wait, dear,” I counseled.

“Let’s gather evidence first.”

Then, my perceptive granddaughter Jessie reminded, “Grandma! What about the wildlife camera in the oak tree? It might have recorded something!”

Indeed, that camera captured our ace in the hole.

The footage unmistakably showed Brian, directing the team to destroy my pond. He seemed pleased with his stealthy mischief.

“Caught you,” I smirked.

Brian presumed I would overlook his actions due to my age and solitude. He underestimated my resourcefulness.

I immediately phoned the local wildlife conservation office.

“Good day,” I began politely. “I need to report the ruin of a protected natural area.”

The agent sounded puzzled. “Protected area, ma’am?”

“Absolutely,” I continued. “My pond hosted an endangered fish species, registered with your office years ago. And it’s been filled in without any lawful clearance.”

The conservation office doesn’t take such matters lightly.

Shortly, they were at Brian’s doorstep, imposing a hefty fine that surely made him wince.

“Gentlemen, we’re here concerning the illegal obliteration of a protected site on your neighbor’s land,” they informed Brian.

Brian blanched. “What? Protected site? It was merely a pond!”

“A pond that housed a recognized endangered fish species, Mr. Thompson. You authorized its destruction without proper consent.”

“This is absurd!” Brian protested. “That old pond was an eyesore! I was cleaning up the neighborhood!”

“Unfortunately, that ‘cleanup’ has resulted in a $50,000 penalty for breaching environmental laws,” they countered.

Brian was aghast. “$50,000? You must be joking! That pond was—”

I savored his dismay from afar, but my plans were not yet complete.

I called my grandson Ethan, a sharp attorney in the city.

“Ethan, dear,” I said. “How about assisting your grandmother in dealing with a neighborhood tyrant?”

Eager to aid, Ethan swiftly served Brian with legal papers for property damage and emotional harm.

While I could have stopped there, one more move remained.

Brian’s wife Karen, who always seemed reasonable, returned from work one evening, and I seized the opportunity for a candid talk.

“Evening, Karen,” I greeted her. “Can we chat for a moment?”

She nodded, weary yet accommodating. “Of course, Margaret. What’s troubling you?”

Over tea, I unveiled the entire saga about the pond – its origins, the joyful memories, and the wildlife it supported.

Karen’s expression shifted from bewilderment to shock. “Margaret, I was unaware,” she exclaimed. “Brian claimed the city mandated the pond’s closure for safety!”

“Well,” I reassured her, patting her hand. “Now you understand the full story.”

Subsequently, the neighborhood was abuzz, and Brian vanished for a while after Karen confronted him about his deceit.

One morning, the buzz of machinery woke me. Peering outside, I was astonished to see a team working in my yard under Karen’s supervision.

“Morning, Margaret. I hope you don’t mind, but I thought it was time to rectify things,” Karen greeted me as the crew worked to restore my pond.

Karen confided about Brian’s other questionable dealings. “This was just him venting his frustrations,” she shared softly.

With the pond reinstated, the environmental charges were withdrawn. Ethan persuaded me to drop the lawsuit as well, always the diplomat.

As for Brian, he disappeared out of state, humbled and defeated. Karen, now a frequent visitor, helped me care for the revived pond, grateful for the chance to make amends.

One serene evening by the restored waters, Karen mused, “Margaret, I never imagined I’d appreciate Brian’s mistake.”

Curious, I asked, “Why is that?”

She grinned, clinking our iced tea glasses. “If he hadn’t interfered, I might never have discovered such an incredible neighbor.”

Here I am, 74 and invigorated, with a rejuvenated pond, a new ally, and a tale for future family gatherings. Life always surprises, doesn’t it?

And if there’s a moral here, it’s never to underestimate a grandmother with a resolve and a competent attorney!
