Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 20, 2024

When you get to prison, and they ask you what you’re in for, you don’t want to say you tore the tag off a mattress.

Sounds like a marriage you can have without having to meet your spouse. It does seem workable.

I wonder what Moshe did with the pineapple after the race?

Did that warranty apply to pillows that said to not remove the tag?

I think that label thing is a misinterpretation of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. I’m not a lawyer; maybe someone can clarify. The label itself is not illegal; the issue is that it may not be of legal value. The warrantor is allowed to limit the warranty but it has to be conspicuously expressed in writing in a Limited Warranty statement… that nobody reads anyway… :D The label may be a warning that such limitation exists but not the expression of it. I’m not sure if there’s an issue with the term “void” because the warranty is always valid though limited. However, if it’s limited to zero… :D

We’re all running around with pineapples on our heads when you think about it.

Why, Moshe, why?

Do the double proxies go on a (the) honeymoon too?

Moshe – why???

So if I want to get back at somebody, I can go to Montana and marry some ogre in his or her name and they’re stuck with them?

When I married my wife in Seoul, S. Korea, it was registered in City Hall first. We had our wedding, a civil ceremony, days later.

Hmmm…I think the pineapple guy needs to rethink his worldview i.e., GET A LIFE !!

Re: Moshe – Well, we know he can do that!

I’ve seen too many computers with a warranty sticker like that in the last 15 years to believe the last one….

Do the proxies consummate the marriage also?

At an electronics company I worked for, they put those stickers on potentiometers on the circuit boards. They didn’t want you tweaking the calibration settings

THE AVALANCHE

An optimist and a pessimist were riding a bus together when the optimist got hungry.

“Let’s stop at the next restaurant,” said the optimist. “Then we can take the next bus and continue our journey.”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” said the pessimist. “It could cause something bad to happen.”

“Or it could cause something good to happen,” replied the optimist, “and besides, I’m hungry!”

So the two of them left the bus and went into the restaurant.

While they were eating, a news report came on the TV.

“A bus was crushed in an avalanche fifteen minutes ago,” said the reporter. “Everyone on the bus was killed.”

The optimist and the pessimist recognized the bus as the one they had gotten off.

“See?” said the optimist. “I told you something good would happen if we got off the bus!”

“Good?” sputtered the pessimist. “If the bus hadn’t stopped to let us off, it might have missed the avalanche!”
