Harry had been feeling sick lately and was finally convinced to see the Doctor after his wife Suzy’s urging. After a thorough examination, and much thought, the Doctor was ready to tell Harry and a very worried Suzy, his prognosis. Harry was too stressed out. He would need 6 months of pure relaxation. Suzy, very agitated, took out her notepad to begin writing down his list of orders for these months of relaxation. “How should I go about it?” asked Harry. “OK” said the doctor “I would like your wife to take one tranquilizer four times a day…”

A cop pulled over a car and finds a young couple in the front seat. “Where’s your seat belt young man?” asked the cop. “Oh, I just took if off now when you were walking up to the car”, responded the man. “No you didn’t!” exclaimed his wife, “you never wear your seat belt!”. A little taken aback, the cop asked to see his license. “Aw shucks!” cried the man, “I must have left it home!” “Yeah right!” screamed his wife, “You know it expired 3 months ago!” At a loss for words, the cop asked the woman “are you always so tough on him?!” “No” responded the young woman, “only when he had too much to drink!”.

Modern?

Family?

That's not my opinion of MY modern family.

Mine just sits there staring at a "Dumb" phone!

I just don't get this new form of intelligence.

I still use a flip phone for what it is, a phone.

And when family is sitting around a room with their attention on an electronic device instead of talking to each other, that's no intelligence.

If it were up to me, I'd take up their phones when they enter the door. But the BOSS says no.

An elderly couple was shopping in their hometown grocery store when an employee asked to see inside her purse. To her husbands surprise there was a can of peaches neatly hidden away. The police were called & she was taken away to jail. The next morning at her hearing, the judge expressed his displeasure with her & said I've examined the contents of the can & found it contained 6 peach halves. So you will serve one day for each one. When the judge asked if anyone else had any thing to say, her husband stood & said, your honor, she also stole a can of peas.

They actually did an episode of modern family doing everything entirely with mobile devices. And yes we spend way too much time on ours too.... case in point, I'm on the kindle and DH is on the iPad right now (DD is in bed but also has a nabi tablet to use during the day). Our solution is to limit their use to travel, rainy days and after campfire on camping trips.

A married couple come to the marriage counselor. The wife complains:
- We were having a perfect marriage until his girlfriend started dating my boyfriend..

THAT IS IT RIGHT THERE!

Glad to know my family isn't the only 1!

My terminally ill 89 year old mother just doesn't understand why everybody plays with their phones instead of talking to each other like they used to do. They make it a point to come and see her and spend time with her and after about 5 minutes, it's back to the head in the phone.

I don't understand either.

Sorry to hijack the thread.

I thought I'd feel better after my rant, but I don't.

A recent study has found that wives who carry a little extra weight live longer than the husbands who mention it

A very inebriated man walks into a nightclub and, after staring for some time at the only woman seated at the bar, walks over to her, and places his hand on her knee. Instantly, she jumps up and slaps him silly.

"I'm sorry," the drunk stammers. "I thought you were my wife. You look exactly like her."

"Why you drunken, worthless, insufferable creep," screams the woman.

"That's funny," he mutters back. "You sound like her, too."

After my divorce, I realized that poker isn't the only game that starts with holding hands and ends with a staggering financial loss.

In the middle of a really messy divorce, I decided suicide was the only option.

I just need to talk her into it now.

No divorce is ever really just one person's fault. Usually the blame is a straight 50:50 . . . between the ex-wife and the ex-mother-in-law.

I know every divorce is traumatic, but mine's been worse than most.

It nearly didn't go through.
