Old one just heard again….Mom is shopping, Dads watching the game while babysitting the young daughter. Daughter is occupied with her “tea set”. Little girl keeps bringing little cups of tea to Dad who drinks it up and praises the daughter and continues watching the game. Wife comes home and analyses the scene -informs Dad that the only water the little girl can reach is in the toilet bowl.
Earl and I, both being men “of an age,” have much in common. I don’t know about scratching or lower expectational standards. I’ll just point out that, as a rule, the elderly are the ones who still “dress” to go out. I think the day that I leave the house in what appears to be what I slept in the night before will be the day I would, and probably should, be put in that home.

I remember old fragrance bottles of my grandmothers that were labeled “toilet water.”

This one gives a whole new meaning to the term “toilet humor”.

During a water outage, the water in the Tank, not the bowl, is drinkable.

Man wondering why the dog drinks from the toilet.
Dog wondering why the man pees in the drinking fountain.
