SUNDAY FUNNIES: CATTY THOUGHTS (misc. jokes)

 Hello Everybody! Piper D. Katt here!
I wish the weather would make up its mind. Provided it has one to make up.
This time last week it was starting to warm up for the latest heatwave.
This weekend we're waiting for rain to arrive, heralding a cold front that will keep things nice and comfortable until the next heat wave arrives just in time for the forthcoming weekend!
Isn't climate change wonderful, the cat asks very sarcastically.
In any event I'm just going to sit here and, with apologies to Douglas Adams, ponder the meaning of Life, The Universe and Everything.
Or in other words: it's joke time!

Can you name a sport that starts with a "T"?
GOLF.🏌
Hmm, I wonder if they serve tea🫖 on British golf courses?
"That was a tough hole mate. Fancy going into the clubhouse for a cuppa before we continue?"
That last line works a lot better with a British accent but since this is in print, please do the best you can.
Yet if the concept of being the best golfer is hitting the ball the least amount of times, why don't they just stop playing?

Being a cat I am absolutely purrfect, though my friends say I should work more on my humility.
I have no idea why.
Then again, I don't have any bad habits.
I'm good at all of them.😼

I believe a lot of conflicts in the Old West could have been avoided if cowboy🤠 architects just made their towns big enough for everyone.

All you humans are worried about Artificial Intelligence and your smart phones📱, computers💻, televisions📺 and other electronic devices spying on you but forget that your vacuum cleaner has been gathering dirt on you for years!

When you reach the end of omelet making class, is it time for the final eggs ham?

When you're in the kitchen cooking, remember: Hamburger Helper only works if the hamburger is willing to admit it needs help.

So on that note♫, take care.
STAY SAFE!
Have a great week and please be back next weekend for more Sunday Funnies!—PDK.

TRIVIA TIME
What country has the longest coastline in the world?

We’ll reveal all next weekend but for now, let’s open up THE ANSWERS BOX📦 and discover the results from the July 12, 2025 Puzzle Corner.

FAMOUS FIRSTS
🥇
July 17 was World Emoji Day. What was the very first one?
Publicly, a heart, represented in 1995 as <3. Any private experimentation or use before then cannot be verified.

NEXT?
What is the next item(s) in the sequence below?
1, 2, 3, 7, ??, ??
12, 18.
1+2=3, 3+4=7, 7+5=12, 12+6=18.

SUNDAY FUNNIES: HOT DOG, COOL JOKES (misc. jokes)

 Hello Everybody! Koda Canine here!
It's only muggy at the moment, but the latest heat wave is upon us, so I'm going to stay inside where it's nice and cool.
So should every other pet.
Not at my house, of course, but within their own.
Remember: if it's too hot for the people reading this, it is definitely too hot outside for their furry friends!

Now then, on with the jokes!

I've never seen The Hunt For Red October because I'm not too crazy about movies with sub titles.
After all, if I wanted to read, I'd get the book.

If you take a cow🐄 for a walk through a vineyard, do you herd it through the grapevine?😏
Do I have Marvin Gaye, Credence Clearwater Revival or the California Raisins to thank for that joke?

How come whenever they discuss the 1980s, people always talk about boom boxes?
Isn't that cliche an overused stereo type?

I was going to take over the world today but unfortunately overslept again.
Maybe tomorrow?
Count your blessings folks. I've got a worse track record on that objective than Pinky and the Brain.

I really like the way the
Earth🌍🌎🌏 rotates.
It makes my day.

I read that zoo dentists will only work on bears🐻🐻 with strong anesthetics. Apparently there is safety in numb bears.😉

My people watched a documentary on Geese🪿🪿 last night.
It was rated "R" because of too much fowl language.

A sign on a store read: IF IT'S IN STOCK, WE HAVE IT.
Are things really that bad?

And so on that note♫, have a great week.
Take care.
STAY SAFE/COOL!
And please be back next weekend for more Sunday Funnies!KC.
