Rich kid

Two poor kids go to a birthday party at a rich kid’s house. The kid is so rich that he has his own swimming pool and all the kids go in.

As they’re changing afterwards, one of the poor kids says to the other one, “Did you notice how small the rich kids’ penises were?”

“Yeah,” says his mate, “It’s probably because they’ve got toys to play with.”

Can I’ve A Job?

This kid walks into a general store one day and asks for a job.

The owner tells him that he doesn’t need any help.

The kid is persistent so the guy tells him to watch him when the next customer comes in. If he can do what he does, he’ll give him a job.

A few minutes later a customer comes in. “Good afternoon sir. What can I do for you?”

The guy says, “I need some grass seed.”

So the owner goes and gets it. When he gets back he says, “How about a lawn mower to go with this.”

“What do I need a lawn mower for?”

“Well when the grass grows your going to need something to cut it with.”

“Yea, OK, I’ll take a lawn mower too.”

After the customer was gone, the owner turned to the kid and said, “That’s how it’s done. Can you do that?”

The kid said, “Sure.”

So the next customer comes in and says, “I need some Tampax.”

The kid says, “Yes sir.”, and goes after them.

When he gets back he says, “Would you like a lawn mower to go with that?”

The guy says, “What the hell do I need a lawn mower for?”

The kid replies, “You might as well cut the grass. Your weekend is shot, that’s for sure…..”

A Christmas Present

Once upon a time there was a little girl who wanted a kitten for Christmas.
Her mother couldn’t buy a kitten and parcel it up for Christmas Day, so she
bought it a week before Christmas and gave it to the little girl.
‘You’re getting your Christmas present a week early this year,’ her mother
explained as she handed over the fluffy little tabby kitten. ‘Is that what you
want?’
The little girl said, ‘It’s wonderful; mother…just what I wanted. There’s
just one thing wrong!’
‘What’s that?’ her mother asked.
‘Well, it has a cute little claw on the outside of every paw and another
little claw on the inside of every paw – but the poor little thing has no claws
at all in the middle of its paws!’
Her mother smiled. ‘Don’t worry, Kitty. When you wake up on Christmas morning
you’ll find the claws are there.’
Now Kitty loved her kitten dearly, but she worried about the claws in the
middle of its paws. The days passed and there wasn’t even a hint, a clue or an
inkling of claws in the middle of its paws.
When Christmas Eve arrived and there was still no sign, Kitty went to her
mother and asked again, ‘Are you absolutely sure that the kitten will have its
middle claws tomorrow? There’s only a few hours to go and there’s not a hint or
clue or an inkling as to claws as far as I can see.’
‘Wait till you wake up on Christmas morning,’ her mother smiled and went on
stuffing the turkey.
So Kitty went to sleep a worried girl. When she woke up on Christmas morning
she ignored the presents in her stocking and rushed downstairs to look at her
little kitten.
She was astounded, amazed and just a little surprised to see that her kitten
had four claws on every paw! The middle ones had appeared as if by magic.
Kitty rushed to her parent’s bedroom. ‘Mummy, Mummy! The kitten has grown its
middle claws!’
‘Of course it has,’ her mother grinned.
‘But how did you know?’ Kitty demanded.
Her father rolled over sleepily and sighed, ‘Oh, Kitty, everybody knows that
Centre-claws always comes at Christmas!’

Dear?

Once there was a family who was given some venison by a friend. The wife cooked up the deer steaks, and served it to the husband and children.

The husband thought it would be fun to have the children guess what it was that they were eating.

“Is is beef?” The daughter Katie asked.

“Nope.”

“Is it pork?” the son Willie asked.

“Nope.”

“Heck, we don’t know, Dad!” Willie exclaimed.

“I’ll give you a clue,” the Dad said, “It’s what your mom sometimes calls me.”

“Spit it out, Willie!” cried Katie, “We’re eating Asshole!!”
