I just found out I’m colorblind. The diagnosis came completely out of the purple.

We recommended charitable donations one Christmas and got a single donation of a million: unfortunately we needed even more Turkish lira to post it to the charity. (true...)

That must have been in the days of the old Turkish Lira (pre 2005). Inflation was so high that if you as a tourist paid for something with a credit card by the time it appeared on your account the difference in the exchange rate gave you a substantial discount.

Oh, you’ve done it now, that reminds me ....

A young brave went to see his father, the Big Chief. “Father!” he said. “Yes, my son?” the father answered. “My brother, Flying Eagle, how he get his name?” “Well, my son, when your brother born, I look out of yurt and see great eagle flying in sky. So Flying Eagle his name.”

“But Father,” the son went on, “my sister Running Deer, how she get her name?” “Well, my son, when your sister born, I look out of yurt and see deer run out of forest. But why all these questions, Squatting Dog??”

This joke works so much better when it isn’t quite so forum friendly.
I wonder how many people young enough and naive enough to be affected by mature humour actually read the forum. Or is it prudish adults we're protecting?

Prudish Adults would be my guess. Schoolyards and Rap Music have language that could get you reprimanded and banned around here

It's the 1960s and Sonny visits his girlfriend Janie to go out to the dance. Janie's mum answers the door and invites Sonny in.

'She's just upstairs getting changed, Sonny. Would you like a lemonade while you wait?' Sonny says yes, and they get talking.

'Janie likes to screw, you know', said her mum out of the blue. 'In fact, she'd screw all day if she could. All day and all night.' Sonny's eyes light up and he mentally changes his plan for the evening. Janie comes down the stairs, pretty as a picture, and they set off out.

Four hours later and Janie bursts through the front door, tears in here eyes, hair bedraggled, lipstick everywhere, clothes askew. 'Mother!' she yells... 'It's the Twist! The bloody dance is called the twist!!'

Do you think Rupert would have chimed in and agreed?

"What would Rupert do?"
You're talking about a guy who bought a K-1 and used it for the most part in crop mode.
Please, he had many great attributes, critical analysis wasn't one of them.

A trucking company was giving a test to screen potential drivers, seeing if they could think quickly in an emergency.
Carl, a 27 year CDL license holder, was given this scenario : You start down a 9 percent grade with a full 80,000 lbs. You miss your downshift into low gear and can’t get back in any gear, the brakes are burning up and fading. At the base of this three mile long grade there is a single lane tunnel. Bus full of tourists is broken down in the tunnel entrance. What are you going to do

Carl “ Well, I’m gonna reach back and wake up Leo.”

What? Who is LEO.

Carl “Leo is my partner, we drive as a team. “

We don’t hire teams

Carl “ I don’t go nowhere without Leo, besides we share pay, keep the truck moving with one sleeping and the other driving”

Oh, anyhow, WHY would you wake up Leo?

Carl “ Well, me an Leo been driving together for nearly twenty seven years. In all that time he ain’t never seen a wreck as bad as we’re fixing to have!

Carl- Close my eyes and put the windshield wipers on.
