Human speeches that prove we are going downhill fast

0

Albert Einstein has been quoted to have said, “Two things are infinite: The universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” Whether it is true that this saying is of this renowned German physicist or not, we can all relate to the truth it holds.

The following situations are just the perfect proof of that. We hope you’ll have a good laugh.

1: My husband and I went through the McDonald’s driveway window and I gave the cashier a $5 bill.

Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her 25c.

She said, ‘You gave me too much money.’

I said, ‘Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar back.’

She sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request.

I did so, and he handed me back the 25c, and said ‘We’re sorry but we don’t do that kind of thing.’

The cashier then proceeded to give me back 75 cents in change.

Do not confuse the people at MacD’s.

2: We had to have the garage door repaired.

The repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a ‘large’ enough motor on the opener.

I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.

He shook his head and said, ‘You need a 1/4 horsepower.’

I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, ‘NOOO, it’s not. Four is larger than two.’

We haven’t used that repairman since…

3: I live in a semi-rural area.

We recently had a new neighbor call the local city council office to request the removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road.

The reason: ‘Too many deer are being hit by cars out here! I don’t think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.’

4: IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE.

My daughter went to a Mexican fast-food place and ordered a taco.

She asked the person behind the counter for ‘minimal lettuce.’

He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce

5: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked,

‘Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?’

To which I replied, ‘If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?’

He smiled knowingly and nodded, ‘That’s why we ask.’

6: The pedestrian light on the corner beeps when it’s safe to cross the street.

I was crossing with an ‘intellectually challenged’ co-worker of mine.

She asked if I knew what the beeper was for.

I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.

Appalled, she responded, ‘What on earth are blind people doing driving?!’

She is a government employee…..

7: When my wife and I arrived at a car dealership to pick up our car after a service, we were told the keys had been locked in it.

We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver’s side door.

As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked.

‘Hey,’ I announced to the technician, ‘it’s open!’

His reply was, ‘I know. I already did that side.’

Superstitious dad nervous after daughter says goodbye to him

0

Although superstitions are often connected to pagan beliefs and religious practices that existed many years ago, there are still plenty of people out there who are superstitious even nowadays, just like the dad from the following joke.

You can read it below.

A father put his 3-year-old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers which ended by saying, “God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma and goodbye Grandpa.”

The father asked, ‘Why did you say good-bye Grandpa?’

The little girl said, “I don’t know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do.” The next day grandpa died. The father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers, “God bless Mommy, God Bless Daddy and goodbye Grandma.” The next day the grandmother died.

“Holy crap” thought the father, “this kid is in contact with the other side.”

Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say, “God bless Mommy and goodbye Daddy.”

He was so troubled that he barely went through the day. He was constantly looking at his watch, anticipating for the worst to happen. As he felt safe at work, he didn’t go home once his working hours were over but decided to stay at the office until midnight. He had a couple of cups of coffee as he didn’t want to fall asleep either.

When midnight finally arrived, he felt a sense of relief and headed home.

When he got home his wife said, “I’ve never seen you work so late. What’s the matter?” He said, “I don’t want to talk about it, I just had the worst day of my life.” She said, “You think you had a bad day? You’ll never believe what happened to me. This morning the mailman dropped dead on our porch!”

Old man orders a single hamburger

0

There is something about old people that make us think about life and the things we are to achieve until we reach that ‘old’ age. For one, elderly people are wise and full of knowledge, and secondly, they are often hilarious, so it’s not surprising there are plenty of jokes about them.

This one is about to make your day.

An elderly couple entered a restaurant and ordered a single meal which consisted of a hamburger, french fries, and a single drink.

When the meal arrived, the man cut the hamburger in half and placed one part of it in front of his wife. He then did the same with the french fries and placed the drink in between. They both took sips one by one.

While the man had his piece of the hamburger, his wife was just sitting there watching him eat.

A man who noticed them decided to approach them and offered to buy them another meal, but the elderly man said, “No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.”

As he continued eating, his wife was patiently waiting and was taking sips every now and then.

The man who was at the restaurant approached them once again and offered to at least buy them another drink.

The elderly man refused once again saying that he and his wife share everything.

Finally, when the husband finished eating and wiped his mouth, the man who was observing them approached them for the third time because he couldn’t help but learn why the woman was waiting for her husband to eat.

He got closer and asked her: “What is that you are waiting for?”

The wife replied, “The TEETH.”

St. Peter warned them not to step on any ducks

0

Every now and then, we love sharing fun jokes with you.

The following joke made us laugh really hard, we hope you’ll like it too.

These three guys die together in a tragic accident and they all go to heaven.

When they get there, St. Peter greets them and tells them, “We only have one rule here in heaven. Don’t step on the ducks.”

So, they enter heaven and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place.

It’s almost impossible not to step on a duck because there are so many, and though they try their utmost to avoid standing on them, the first guy soon accidentally steps on one.

St. Peter then appears with the ugliest woman the guy had ever seen.

St. Peter chains the woman to the guy and says to him, “Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly woman!”

The next day, the second guy also accidentally steps on a duck. Once again, St. Peter shows up and with him is another extremely ugly woman. He chains the woman to the second guy saying, “Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly woman!”

The third guy has observed all this and as he really doesn’t want to be chained to an ugly woman for eternity, he’s extremely careful where he steps.

Indeed, he manages to go months without stepping on any ducks. One day though, St.Peter appears with the most gorgeous woman the guy has ever laid eyes on. She’s tall, curvaceous, tanned and extremely sexy.

Without a word, St. Peter chains the woman to the third guy.

The guy happily says to the woman, “I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all eternity?”

The woman replies, “I don’t know about you, but I stepped on a duck.

This guy found a secret door in his new apartment. What he found is hauntingly awesome

0

Buying a new home is a big deal. When we own our own piece of heaven, we get to experience freedom.

When a man purchased a new place, he was excited to take a closer look around. What he didn’t expect, however, was to find a secret passage to an underground man’s cave.

The place used to be an English monastery from the 19th century that was later renovated and divided into 30 apartments. The one this man bought seemed relatively cheap for the price, and he got a bonus place.

This is what the tiny studio looks like.

Being built long time ago, the place has very high ceiling, like the ones they had centuries ago.

The high ceiling also allows the bed to be positioned at an unusual place.

The first floor includes a small bathroom.

In front of the bathroom door, there is a handle on the floor that leads to the secret place.

At first, it looks like an extra storage.

Or maybe like stairs to heaven…or hell?

After exploring further, it has been revealed that the space is pretty big and that its rooms under those of other owners and tenants.

Writings on one of the walls reveal that someone had visited the place over the last years.

The last room, out of many, has a high ceiling.

A hole in the middle of the floor make us believe that something has been unearthed recently.

We truly hope this man will get to keep both apartments for himself. If that’s the case, it’s awesome that he gets two spaces for the price of one.

For more, go to the video below.

Wouldn’t it be nice to own a place with a secret passage and a dungeon?

Before his death, David McCallum revealed the sad truth about ‘NCIS’ co-star Cote de Pablo

0

David McCallum became a star by playing Soviet agent Illya Kuryakin in the 1960s spy drama The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

More recently, the Scottish-born actor was known for his long-running role as a medical examiner on hit TV show NCIS.

Sadly, McCallum passed away on September 25, 2023.

“David was a gifted actor and author, and beloved by many around the world,” the NCIS tribute said.

“He led an incredible life, and his legacy will forever live on through his family and the countless hours on film and television that will never go away.”

His family also payed tribute to the late actor.

“He was the kindest, coolest, most patient and loving father. He always put family before self. He looked forward to any chance to connect with his grandchildren, and had a unique bond with each of them,” his son, Peter McCallum, shared in a statement on behalf of the family. “He and his youngest grandson, Whit, 9, could often be found in the corner of a room at family parties having deep philosophical conversations.

“He was a true renaissance man—he was fascinated by science and culture and would turn those passions into knowledge,” the statement continued. “For example, he was capable of conducting a symphony orchestra and (if needed) could actually perform an autopsy, based on his decades-long studies for his role on NCIS.

“After returning from the hospital to their apartment, I asked my mother if she was OK before she went to sleep. Her answer was simply, ‘Yes. But I do wish we had had a chance to grow old together.’ She is 79, and dad just turned 90. The honesty in that emotion shows how vibrant their beautiful relationship and daily lives were and that somehow, even at 90, Daddy never grew old.”

With his parents being professional musicians, his dad, David Sr., worked as an orchestral violinist for the London Philharmonic Orchestra, his mother, Dorothy, as a cellist, everyone assumed McCallum would choose the same career path. Well, it’s not that he didn’t, because besides being a famous name in the film industry, he’s also a musician who released four albums with Capitol Records during the mid 60’s.

Speaking of his love for music, McCallum once said, “I always knew that I could turn to music if I failed as an actor.”

Acting, however, became his passion the moment he stepped on stage for the first time.

“I played The Little Prince in Shakespeare’s King John, at one of those local things where people do skits and songs. Mine was the little prince having his eyes put out by this terrible man, and I acted it, evidently, very well, because I got a standing ovation. I wasn’t more than eight,” he recalled.

“And I said: ‘Hey, hey, hey, this is kinda cool!’ I don’t know if I consciously thought it, but I had found the place I wanted to be: on a stage, with the lights and make-up and the people. I’m exactly the same to this day; the feeling has never left.”

Initially, he attended the Royal Academy of Music in London, England, but left it for the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

One of the actors McCallum played alongside while on NCIS was Cote de Pablo.

Between 2005 and 2013, Cote de Pablo starred in 189 episodes of NCIS. She made short comebacks in both 2019 and 2020. However, she never returned as a constant cast member.

When she decided to leave the show towards the end of the 11th season, both her co-stars and her fans were surprised by her decision.

“It was not an easy decision, not one taken lightly,” she told Latina then. “I feel like I am leaving my family. What I want to say most of all is thank you to the fans and to the people who have been so supportive of me and of the show, who have made the show the great success that it is.”

When McCallum heard the news, he was left frustrated.

Speaking to Digital Spy, he explained that writers had to rewrite several episodes of the show and that he was angry.

“It was frustration and anger that someone should just walk out on us,” McCallum said.

“I just don’t understand how a leading lady in a show that’s worldwide, who ostensibly wants to have a career as an actress, suddenly walks away from such a gem and just vanishes a couple of days before we start production.

“This business is merciless so right away the whole team of writers gets in and rewrites the first five shows,” he added. “When it happened, you think, ‘This is a dangerous road to go down’ – but they pulled it off.”

It was back in 2016, that McCallum decided to speak of the possible reasons why Cote de Pablo left the show.

It was during an AMA (Ask Me Anything) thread on the popular social media platform Reddit that he was asked whether he was aware of why she left NCIS.

McCallum was quick to answer.

“At the time I was astonished when Cote left. But in retrospect, it seems that she was not up to handling the demands that the character put upon her,” he responded, as reported by Express.

He then added: “I still don’t understand her deeper motives.”

Weeks after McCallum spoke of Cote de Pablo, she spoke to Vanity Fair and shared her part of the story.

“Look, I love this character. I worked eight years crafting this character and loving her. And so when I felt or I perceived that the character was not being treated with the respect that she deserved, no money in the world [would make me stay],” she shared with the magazine.

“They were going to send her back to Israel and make her an unfortunate, miserable woman,” the actress continued. “I said, ‘What do I leave all the women that have watched and followed the show for so long?’ And I didn’t think it was fair. So I said, ‘Unless someone can really write something fantastic for her, I won’t go back.’”

The untold truth of Clint Eastwood’s youngest daughter – this is Morgan Eastwood today at 26

0

Known for his turbulent love life as much as he’s known for his incredible roles and films, actor Clint Eastwood is one lucky man.

Throughout his career, which spans 60 years, Eastwood has won a number of awards, including four Academy Awards. His western Unforgiven, which he directed and starred in, earned him Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director in 1992. Some 12 years later, Million Dollar Baby won four Academy Awards, with Eastwood getting two; for Best Picture and Best Director.

Among the movies he starred in during his career are the westerns A Fistful of DollarsFor a Few Dollars More, and of course, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, which are widely known as “spaghetti westerns,” Dirty HarryFlags of Our FathersLetters from Iwo JimaChangelingGran Torino and American Sniper.

The good thing about Eastwood is that despite his age, he’s not planning on slowing down as he’s got to offer even more to the film industry, both on screen and behind the camera.

Speaking to Ellen DeGeneres about getting old, the legendary actor said: “I don’t think about it. I sometimes think, when I was a little kid, I used to hang out with my grandfather who was in his nineties. And I thought… who the hell would want to live this long?”

Eastwood has eight children from two marriages and flings throughout his life. He married Maggie Johnson in 1953 and the two had two children together, Kyle and Alison. However, shortly after they tied the knot, the Million Dollar Baby director had an affair with a woman from Seattle which resulted with a daughter, Laurie, that Eastwood learned of and met later in life.

Although he remained married to Johnson until 1984, Eastwood had plenty of affairs, including that with Sondra Locke with whom he was together for nine years before he divorced his wife. Locke was also married, but she never divorced her husband.

Eastwood has daughter Kimber with a stunt-woman named Roxanne Tunis, son Scott and daughter Kathryn with Jacelyn Reeves, a flight attendant, daughter Francesca with actress Frances Fisher and another daughter, Morgan, with second wife, news anchor Dina Ruiz.

Morgan had a normal childhood besides being the daughter of a Hollywood legend. Unlike many children of famous actors, she didn’t start acting as a child, although she had minor roles in some of her dad’s movies.

Morgan, who was born in 1996, starred as a young girl on a tricycle in the 2008 film Changeling and the 2004 hit movie Million Dollar Baby. Moreover, she also had a small role in the 2009 film Johnny Mercer: The Dream’s On Me, starring alongside Julie Andrews.

It wasn’t until the show Mrs. Eastwood & Company aired on E! in 2012 that the world learned more about Morgan.

In 2019, this young lady served as an executive producer for the short I See You, in which she also starred.

Speaking with TreatyMyOCD, Morgan revealed that she had OCD, and that she has had it her entire life, but wasn’t diagnosed until she reached 20.

“My mom often jotted down her thoughts about my cuteness and quirkiness in my baby journal. She documented how I, at age two, would throw tantrums when my layered shirt sleeves didn’t line up perfectly. Of course, I don’t remember those exact moments, but I understand my toddler-aged reasoning. Twenty-something years later, I’ll still want to bawl my eyes out if something doesn’t feel ‘just right,’” she said.

Paul Archuleta/FilmMagic

“This applies to many scenarios: the manner in which I clean something unsanitary, picking my face, rotate my left shoulder while seated or walking, or adjusting my knee so that it pops a certain number of times. Oh, and obsessively purchasing things that I believe I need at that moment. If I don’t find that ‘just right’ feeling, a sense of unease and panic builds up and pulses through my veins, leading me into what feels like is going to be a permanently petrified state of mind.”

“Acquiescing to discomfort is what helps me most on a day-to-day basis. Thoughts now pass through my mind, in one side and out the other, as quickly as they appear, and that’s extremely comforting,” Morgan continued, adding that now, in 2023, she has stopped seeing doctors to seek physical explanations of what is a very mental thing.

“I exercise, even though I’ve never loved to because I know it makes my brain and body genuinely feel good. I surround myself with the greatest support system I can imagine, and I am my most authentic self around my friends, family, and even people I meet on the street, I can laugh about my idiosyncrasies. This may be a lifelong journey, but if OCD wants to try to drag me along, I’ll at least try to pick myself up and run with it,” Morgan Eastwood told TreatMyOCD.

Instagram/morganeastwood

On June 17, Morgan and her boyfriend Tanner Kooopmans announced they were engaged. He, just like Morgan, graduated from Loyola Marymount University.

We wish Morgan only the best life brings.

What Melania is calling Barron behind closed doors is finally revealed

0

Barron Trump is the youngest son of former president and mogul Donald Trump, yet he’s living a life out of the spotlight and seems like a down-to-earth young man.

Barron was born in 2006, the same year when Donald and Melania tied the knot. He grew up in the Trump Tower in Manhattan, where he is reported to have an entire floor for himself. Although he has lived surrounded by luxury, he never had a traditional nanny while growing up. Instead, Melania took all the care of him, and that included preparing him breakfast and lunch every day.

In the past, she spoke of him as a very creative child. In a 2015 People interview, she said: “Barron is 9 years old. He needs somebody as a parent there, so I am with him all the time as you know my husband is traveling all the time.”

“We keep it down to a minimum,” Trump added. “If you have too much help, you don’t get to know your children.”

They let his creativity grow and never limit him when it comes to his interests. Speaking to Parenting, as quoted by Metro, Melania said: “In his space, the décor style of the rest of our home is mixed with what he is into: planes and helicopters.

“We let him be creative; let his imagination fly and do whatever he wants. Whatever he wants to do with his own room later on, he can do it. Whatever he wants to do with his own room he can do it. He draws on the walls, we can paint it over.

“When he was smaller, he started drawing on the walls,” she added. “His imagination is growing and important. He draws on the walls in his playroom, we can paint it over. One day he was playing bakery and he wrote ‘Barron’s Bakery’ on the wall with crayons. He is very creative, if you say to a child ‘no, no, no,’ where does the creativity go?”

Just around 20 minutes after Barron was born, his father called MSNBC’s long-running radio show “Imus in the Morning,” hosted by Don Imus, to reveal the great news.

“Everyone’s perfect,” Donald Trump, who was 59 at the time, told Imus.

“I continue to stay young, right? I produce children, I stay young,” while Melania’s website posted that the baby weighted in at 8 1/2 pounds and was 21 inches long.

Besides English, Barron also speaks his mom’s native language, Slovenian. What’s most, Mary Jordan, author of The Art of Her Deal, which focuses on Melania, Barron and his mom speak Slovenian with each other.

“There’s a unit within the family unit, and it’s Melania, her mother, her father, and Barron,” Jordan told CBS News. “And they all speak Slovenian.”

Further, Jordan said that Donald isn’t always happy when his wife and son speak Slovenian because he never learned the language himself.

“He has said it annoys him sometimes ’cause he has no idea what they’re saying,’” Jordan explained.

Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images

However, despite the fact he spends more time with his mom than his dad, Barron resembles his father in many ways. That is the reason why Melania gave him a special nickname.

“He is independent and opinionated and knows exactly what he wants,” Melania told Parenting. “He is a mixture of us in looks, but his personality is why I call him ‘Little Donald.’”

The former First Lady continued: “He likes the way he talks, the way he is. They have beautiful respect and admiration for each other.”
