Family dark humor jokes
My parents raised me as an only child. Which really infuriated my sister.
My mom died when we couldn’t remember her blood type. As she died, she kept telling us to “be positive,” but it’s hard without her.
A kid decided to burn his house down. His dad watched with tears in his eyes. He put his arm around the mom and said, “That’s arson.”
Do you know the last thing my grandfather said to me before he kicked the bucket? “Grandson, watch how far I can kick this bucket.”
At home, they treat me like God. I’m generally ignored until someone wants something.
My senior relatives liked to tease me at weddings, saying things like, “You’ll be next!” They stopped once I started doing the same to them at funerals.
To teach kids about democracy, I let them vote on dinner. They picked tacos. Then I made pizza because they don’t live in a swing state.
Son: “Dad, did you get the results of the DNA test back?” Dad: “Call me George.”
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.
I childproofed my house. Somehow they still got in!
My grandma has the heart of a lion and a lifetime ban from the zoo.
I’ll never forget my Grandfather’s last words to me just before he died. “Are you still holding the ladder?”
I’d like to have kids one day. I don’t think I could stand them any longer than that, though.
What do you call headphones that walk out on their children? Deadbeats.
Today I made a decision to go to my childhood house. I asked the residents if I may come inside because I was feeling nostalgic, however, they refused and slammed the door on my face. My mother and father are the worst.
My grandfather said my generation relies too much on the latest technology. So I unplugged his life support.
What does my dad have in common with Nemo? They both can’t be found.

My car keys live in either of two places. One is on a hook inside the house and the other is on a cord around my neck. Never ever anywhere else so I never spend time looking for my keys.
Isn't it hard to start your car with the key around your neck?

It's hard to know what to believe, isn't it? 
I have a tendency to only donate to groups where the money I donate goes to the needy only. That limits it to very few groups.

There is so much misinformation in this thread it is just forcing me to say look it up here https://www.propublica.org/article/how-to-evaluate-charity-before-you-donate St. Jude is the number 10 cancer hospital for kids but they receive over 95% of the donations.

The Wire Cutter recommendation for a budget laser is the Brother HL-L2350DW, $123 at Amazon. Amazon has none, but B&H has it for $149 with no sales tax. Do any of you have that printer? I'll read some reviews.
This one?

I have posted this many times on many forums, this year I thought I would let it go by, but something says post it again.

My brother was a corpsman during Vietnam. So, I sent this on to him. He responded back to me the following.
"Will share this with my fellow marine and corpsmen friends.
Technically corpsmen that were 8404 don't think of themselves as blue-side, but rather green-side."

My son and a friend each have blue Honda Fits. I wanted to make a dry snow globe for each with a blue Fit inside. The smallest Fit I could find was a light blue 1/64 from China,

I can lock my focus on any of my DSLR nikons with a lever on the back of the camera. It seems to me this could be fixed with a software update.

The best I came up with is this.

I found $20 in the Costco parking lot. I asked myself, “What would Jesus do?” So I went back in and turned it into wine.

Thanks for the recommendation. It is too high for my budget. I’d really like to know what the differences are between an IPS and VA monitor also.
This explains it.
