Why you should never question a drunk

A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected:

a half-gallon of 2% milk,
a carton of eggs,
a quart of orange juice,
a head of romaine lettuce,
a 2 lb. can of coffee and
a 1 lb. package of bacon.

As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of the cashier. While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly stated, “You must be single.”

The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was intrigued by the derelict’s intuition, since she was indeed single. She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about her selections that could have tipped off the drunk to her marital status. Curiosity getting the better of her, she said “Well, you know what, you’re absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?”

The drunk replied, “Cause you’re ugly.”

  7. Jim Smith Says:

    But in the morning, he’ll be sober.

  8. Karen Says:

    I hear and read about how so many jokes about men, are considered, “male bashing”. Well, I consider this a perfect example of female bashing!

  9. Dylan Says:

    This joke to me illustrates exactly how women look too deeply into anything a man says. :P

    (on a side note, I think my response sounded more like female bashing than the joke itself.)

  10. Harry Says:

    Karen stop being such a C U N T

  11. pitacvert Says:

    No Karen, you’re wrong. The gender here is inconsequential. You could have a joke about a drunk harassing a man, and it would be just as funny. The point of the joke is: only when you’re drunk you can say certain things out loud. If you want to find female bashing look elsewehere; there are plenty of examples. This is not one of them.

  12. Ohsay Says:

    Karen, i belive its ugly bashing.

    And who says the drunk is a guy?

    just assuming that “the drunk” is male,
    is sexist as you must think woman are perfect and never become alcoholics etc.

    Anyskooch ranting aside,

    Lmfao!
    that was amazing haha

  13. milander Says:

    stumbled onto this, gave it a thumbs down and stumbled away. only hill billies and “boobs make me want to jerk off” would find this even remotely funny…

  14. James - Visualized.Feel.Abundance Says:

    Sometimes only the drunk will speak the truth even when the truth hurts.

  15. john Says:

    as a reply to karen’s comment, no this isn’t woman bashing. . . . this is UGLY bashing, hahahahahaha. if you’re ugly, i’m really, REALLY sorry and do apologize and take that back.

  16. Lookfar Says:

    2 milander- what do boobs make YOU want to do?

  17. Al Says:

    The groceries was a red herring.

  18. *Politically Correct Police* Says:

    This joke has been flagged as un-PC and therfore is no longer funny.

    You must cease and desist from laughing with immediate affect.

    Failure to do so will result in humour.

    That is all

  19. matt Says:

    this was totally unexpected as the response. people who think these jokes up must not have lives! to have your mind completely cleared of worry, wonder or just ordinary thoughts is unreal. go get um’ nimble minded creatures!

  29. sandra Says:

    awesome!

  30. Irreverant Musings Says:

    “stumbled onto this, gave it a thumbs down and stumbled away.”

    Lies. You posted a comment, didn’t you? You obviously stayed long enough to do that. And I would bet you even come back to read this.

  31. Tony Says:

  33. Heather Says:

    ROFL! I thought it was hilarious! To the girl with an attitude… It’s just a dang joke

  34. Anonymous Says:

    I don’t wish to knock the content of the joke, I didn’t find it even mildly offensive, on a downside though, I didn’t find it mildly amusing either.

    Nevermind.

  35. Jenny Says:

    Well.. i find all the replies as GAY-bashing? What if the drunk was a woman?

  36. Tomation Says:

    I cant believe there are so many comments about one small simple joke.

    It was a funny joke but for people to have taken offence i think they are the sad cumstains with no life.
    Get a life and along the way get a sense of humour to go with it.

    Anyway i have joined the saddo’s and submitted a comment of my own now…. damn you people.

  37. Tomation Says:

    The people that find Jokes offensive are the sad cumstains that dont have a life.

    Now why dont you go and get a life and along the way pick up a sense of humour and get on with all the normal people in this world instead of bitching about people with the other sad slimetrails.

    Anyway i am also sad now because i have posted a comment on a page with a joke. Now that is also SA A AD.

    Asta Lavista Dingo’s

  38. Tomation Says:

    And now even sadder because you can see that my first comment never got through and i decided to change it a bit which makes me uber sad to be taking so much care over a shitty pointless comment. GET OUT OF ME PAUL. IT HURTS!!!!

    ARMAGEDDON!!!!

  39. Tomation Says:

    Heres something to balance the offence.

    Men get ready to be offended… if your sad enough to be offended by a joke.

    1. Men are like Laxatives ….. They irritate the crap out of you.
    2 Men are like. Bananas . The older they get, the less firm they are.

    3. Men are like Weather . Nothing can be done to change them.

    4. Men are like Blenders You need One, but you’re not quite sure why.

    5. Men are like Chocolate Bars … Sweet, smooth, & they usually head right for your hips.

    6. Men are like . Commercials …… You can’t believe a word they say.

    7. Men are like Department Stores …. Their clothes are always 1/2 off!

    8. Men are like …. Government Bonds …. They take soooooooo long to mature.

    9. Men are like .. . Mascara . They usually run at the first sign of emotion.

    10. Men are like Popcorn ….. They satisfy you, but only for a little while.

    11. Men are like Snowstorms …. You never know when they’re coming, how many inches you’ll get or how long it will last.

    12. Men are like . Lava Lamps .. Fun to look at, but not very bright.

    13. Men are like Parking Spots All the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped.

  40. Tomation Says:

    Why does my comment always appear about 10 times. damn website.
    Im gone!!

    for now…

  41. Pete Says:

    Every joke offends someone. They offend the minority and bring laughter to the majority. Deal with it. And kudos to you if you can laugh at it too.

  42. Katie Says:

    Hey Tomation I loved your comments… What a legend!!
    Why are you people criticizing this joke?? It is after all just a JOKE…
    If it is offensive to some of you, then it probably means that you are like the woman in this joke…
    I personally found this joke highly amusing…

  48. Matt Says:

    Ha Ha! I’ve been having a tough day but that sorted it out. Great joke :)

  49. Jaydvs Says:

    My only question is, If a joke can evoke such emotion as to cause you to be offended and need to tell everyone about it when it wasn’t even at your expense, how do you function in everyday life? Better yet, DO you function in every day life? Life’s rough, wear a helmet bitch.

  50. David Says:

    Not funny. I work counseling drunks and addicts. Just because the guy is drunk doesn’t excuse him from being an ass.

  51. Tony Says:

  53. Jewboy Says:

    haha! nice one…

  54. Jinx Says:

    it was funny, but it wasnt laught out loud funny.

  55. Christopher Says:

    Normally I wouldn’t ‘thumbs up’ this on stumble upon but to balance the one that claims to say ‘thumbs down’ and left, I felt like balancing it out!

    I found this joke.. blunt! good, but not the best. It is also sad to see people who get ‘offended’ over silly little things. Remember ‘nutty professor’ movie, obese people were MAD at the show cause its showing of fat people (dinner scene).. remember Mr McGoo? Blind societies were MAD at that show.

    It’s sad when everything MUST CEASE to prevent ‘offending’ someone. EVERYTHING we do may offend at least one person. I for one won’t stop in fear of offending someone. Besides, you can ONLY offend someone that is weak in character (a flake, a nut; a Wishy-Washy person). It is just as easy to be not offended as it is to BE offended. if you were ‘offended’ by this bawdy talk, simply click away and hold NO grudge… If your clicking into most pages offends you, maybe the internet isn’t a safe place for you to play around in and NOT for you. perhaps try watching Barny re-runs (where everyone loves everyone else and a safe place to hide out in).

    ok, I’m done my rant.

  56. nnnnnnnnnikki Says:

    ha i found this amusing
    people calm down let people comment whatever they want about this
    JEEZ

    Here’s another recipe for you:

    2 spoons of Interwebs + 50 morons = this page.

    ;P

  59. NewLifeFromHeaven Says:

    This is one more reason not to get drunk…You turn into a meanie!

  60. CW Says:

    HOW can this be offensive?! If anyone should be offended it should be the men by the comments. There’s nothing in the original joke that indicated the drunk was a man, but everybody automatically assumed it was a man.

    I loved the joke.

  61. AmbyrJayde Says:

    roflmfao hahaha

  62. gene Says:

    Heard better jokes than that.
    Some of the comments though, were shockingly vulgar, offensive, rude, revolting, obnoxious, foul, gross and detestable.
    Why the fuck do some fucking assholes have to fucking well swear the fuck out of every fucking thing they fucking say?
    Bollocks!

  63. Pedo Says:

    AHAHAHAHHAHAHHAGHA awesome. Tomation you rock.

  66. zom-b Says:

    that was a perfect example of karen the douchebag

  67. zom-b Says:

    and if you were offended by this, you have no life and need to realize that if you have no sense of humor, DONT READ JOKES. you end up ruining it for everyone else. and sandra, you can suck my balls bitch. if you dont like the joke, leave now and dont come back. im done now.
    peace

  68. ME Says:

    Read half way down the comment about male and female bashing.

    How do we know the drunk wasn’t a hermaphridite? (if that’s how you spell it)

  71. Aatch Says:

    Not the greatest joke ever, but at 2:53AM (my local time, not the server time), it is somewhat amusing.

    Almost every joke is offensive to somebody. There are gay jokes, lesbian jokes, blonde, ginger and brunette jokes (I’m a red-head), anti-male jokes, anti-female jokes, stupid people jokes, art major graduate jokes (appeal to me, I’m planning on an engineering degree), Jesus jokes. The list goes on…

    Political Correctness has gone too far, there is a limit where PC meets reality. Like calling somebody black, it is a fair description. I have no problem being called white, I dont want to be called anglo-european, why should i call black people African-American? Plus that is assuming that they are both American and descended from Africa. Majority of black people in England are descended from west-indies people. And people from south africa, who can often be white, that live in america, can be called african american.

    I’m done.

  78. ed hurley Says:

    If she’s ugly when he’s drunk, she must really be ugly.

  79. E Says:

    I found this joke to be in the poorest possible taste and extremely offensive! It is riddled with stereotypes and prejudice.

    I demand that the above joke to rewritten, and the term “woman” removed. In accordance with the rules on gender equality that I have just this moment invented, I demand that the word “woman” be replaced by “non gender specific human”. Furthermore this joke is offensive to drunks, in that it implies they may act in the manner of one who is intoxicated! This is a vile prejudice! I demand that the word “drunk” be replaced by “non gender specific human whose forthrightness may be attributed to drinking, but equally may not”

    As a concerned citizen of Somewhereimportantland, I have no foibles about forcing my beliefs on you; petty and ridiculous though they may at first appear, they will help to make this a better, more equal world. And they make me feel powerful and useful. If you don’t make these changes I demanded, then I will write to my local Government official, who will ignore me.

  80. xyzabc Says:

    For all the women who were offended: How do you know that the drunk was a man? If you read the joke carefully, you’ll see that the sex of the drunk is not identified. Your automatic assumption that the drunk was a man is the only thing offensive here.
