Need A Laugh Today? We're Out Here Dangling Our Participle!

Humor or as the Frnech put it, Humour, is the ability or quality of people, objects, or situations to evoke feelings of amusement in other people. It's a form of entertainment which makes people laugh or feel happy. The ability to experience humour, a quality which all people share although some people really have got a stick up their butt, and the extent to which an individual will personally find something humorous depends on a host of variables, including location, culture, maturity, level of education, intelligence, and context. Satire may rely more on understanding the target of the humor, and thus tends to appeal to more mature audiences and is the point of Discover Insanity's look at the world. So today, we've got some questions for you to ponder and a law, well, you're just not going to believe! Read on...

Can blind people see their dreams? Do they dream??

If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme crap,why didn’t he just buy dinner?

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, “I think I’ll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?”


And finally, speaking of dangly things and to give you just one more chuckle, comes this new law from the Virginia legislature has some experience with offbeat bills. It's one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia.State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers...but I don't think it'll be male ones! Under his measure, displaying the ornamentation on a motor vehicle would be a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum fine of $250. Spruill said he won't hesitate to bring a set of $24.95 trailer testicles with him for a legislative show-and-tell. "I'm going to do it," he told a handful of reporters after Tuesday's House session adjourned. "I'm going to bring them out here and show them to you till they tell me to stop."

How that for a legislator with some "balls"? I haven't seen any of these things out here in California, but I'm sure they are soon to come. They say that laughter is the best medicine and I hope today's episode of Discover Insanity gave you a chuckle or two. If not, I'm sure it had to make you think just a bit, right?
