<<Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?>>
A dear female friend of mine used to respond to lame pickup lines with, "Is that a Chap Stick in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"
Oof!

Here's a poster slogan for businesses: "We put the K in Kwality."

I wish I had come up with the word "doi." Maybe I just wish it were popular to say that again.

I have another one which I still giggle insanely over. It concerns Fox (the English Prime Minister, and I assume a Tory) and Lord North (who I assume was the Leader of the Opposition and, obviously, a Whig). The conversation is reputed to have occurred in Parliament during a debate, but I can't find the reference to confirm any of the above. North: "Fox, you will either be hanged or die of the pox!" Fox: "That depends on whether I embrace your Lordship's policies or your mistress!" This has to be one of the greatest rebuttals/putdowns ever uttered ... And it seemed to fit with both the basic thread and the side-discussion on STDs.

Thanks for that one CapK, I had forgotten all about that gem. By the way, How's the vieux main? (apologies to BelMarduk and TEd  )

It is a good one, but misascribed. The parties were actually the Earl of Sandwich (attitude to bananas unknown, to me at least) and John Wilkes.

Bingley corrected: It is a good one, but misascribed. The parties were actually the Earl of Sandwich (attitude to bananas unknown, to me at least) and John Wilkes.Which, no doubt, is why Google didn't give me any clues ... did I at least get the political parties correct?

This reminds me of the terrible times the management at the German national airlines was having. It got so bad that the right hansa didn't know what the Lufthansa was doing!

I was reminded by a note in today's newspaper of a lady who said to Winston Churchill, "Winston, if I were married to you, I'd poison your coffee," to which he immediately replied, "and if I were your husband I'd drink it."
