Where We Twitter Away Our Time

I just found a bunch of really really important notions I tweeted over the past couple of years and realized I'm not using them anymore so you can have'em!
(p.s. I'm @petesbandg)





My wife of several decades says we should get a banner for the back of our car that reads "Just Married" cuz "Just" is also a synonym for "barely."



My brother Tom, a retired underground miner on safety: "Is mining dangerous? I dunno. Death rate's the same everywhere....one per capita."



Me. Single. At a party. Saw baby in a room. Wondered what'd be like to be a dad. So I gave it $20 and said "You really need this light on?"

22 down; 2 to go. How blowing the guts out of eggs relates to Jesus rising from the dead escapes me completely 



Hear about the metal band that plays the same song over and over and over cuz it's never quite good enough? They're called OC/DC.

Has anybody checked to see if Putin's first name really isn't Ras?

Cops are looking for a escaped prisoner; He was doing time for bestiality. He's been on the lam for days.


Incoming joke: Plane crash in California. 100s killed. Searchers find black box. They hear the last words the pilot says: "Too soon?"



If they want to find a lost peacock, they have to issue an amber, orange, blue, green, red, teal, yellow, and silver alert.


Just stood up to talk at a meeting and realized I forgot to wear pants to work today.. is that what they call Livin' The Dream?


English is amazing. Laughter and Daughter are only one consonant apart; My daughters make me dafter. With laughter.


You know your preschooler's hanging with a tough crowd if--when you say "say please,"--he's like "guilty and not guilty."

Still in Charlottetown. Can I measure the circumference of the island using PEI R squared?

H: "Please stop by Costco to buy kitty litter & milk." M: "If we just traded our 2 cats for a cow we'd never have to go to Costco again."


What religion are most heavy-duty technicians? Diagnostic?

You never know if our main-floor toilet's going to flush well or not. It's always a crap shoot. Or should that be chute?

One hour and 45 minutes from my bed to the F97 departure lounge at Terminal One in Pearson. That was fast! And quite a Departure!

"Eddie. Come in. Sit for a spell. We're playing Scrabble."


I hate having unwelcome insects in the kitchen. Time ain't fun when you're having flies.


Flu got. Difficult smart to work when. My drugs on brain.


Why do they call it fasting when it makes time slow down so?


In a restaurant with a password protected wi-fi. I told them the password should be "OnlyCheapskatesDon'tTip."


When will somebody finally invent the wind-powered car?
It seems like such an obvious and cheap use of wind energy. 


Besides copyright, what else will be obsolete in 100 years? Hope they don't replace internal combustion motors with external combustion ones


My wife wants me to buy a new windbreaker. Does that mean she wants me to break even more wind? 

Laziness walks in my family.

If you have a crush on your pastor do you get pulpitations?

Woman at work as I exit office: "Are you off?" Me: "No I just smell that way." Her: "I grew up with brothers. I get it."


Just realized I'm of the age when I order a club sandwich, mostly looking forward to the 4 toothpicks that come with it.



Who decided not to put the comma in years? I mean, it's really 2,013, no?

She keeps saying she's going to phone her friends but doesn't. She should join I'll call aholics Anonymous.



Damn,less than 15 hours into New Year's I already broke 2 resolutions. 1: to not drink before 6; and 2: if I do, not tell the world about it



As ye rip so shall ye sew.


 
In a music store in Toronto today. Me: "Do you have accordions?"
Clerk: "Sorry sir we only sell musical instruments."

 Astonishing: The moment the plumber says the toilet is broken and won't be working for a few hours, the back teeth start zipping up life jackets.


Off course Bernie's name was Madoff. Cuz that's what he did with other people's money.



Wife's awake fretting about sick mom, work, bills, taxes. I'm awake worried I can't come up with a joke beginning for the answer "Car Pool Tunnel syndrome."

I failed math more times than I can count.

Why do men make more typos than women? Male pattern badness?
