Funniest Demotivators Of The Week

Please read this before scrolling down.

This set of demotivators has partial nudity (not the good kind of nakedness you might find in playboy, but the bad kind you might find in one of those bizarre fetish type porn sites.)  It also has incredibly gross, make you want to throw up a little in your mouth kind of pictures.

However, the humor involved in each should be enough to keep you scrolling downward so you don’t freeze like a deer in the headlights when viewing them. I will …

The boy replied, ‘Not exactly, but they aren’t for me. They’re for him. He’s my brother. He’s four. We saw on TV that if you use these you would be able to swim and ride a bike. Right now, …

What A Teacher Makes – (based on Taylor Mali’s skit)

The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life.

One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education. He argued,
What’s a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in
life was to become a teacher?”

He reminded the other dinner guests what they say about teachers: “Those
who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.”

To stress his point he said to another guest; “You’re a teacher, Bonnie.
Be honest. What do you make?”

Bonnie, “You want to know what I make? (She paused, then began…)
“Well, I make …

To give you an idea of how ridiculous our ads might seem in the future,  here is a look back on some ads that seemed like good ideas at the time.

Did You Know…

A lot of people think Benjamin Franklin discovered electricity when he flew his kite with a key on it.   Electricity had already been discovered.  For quite some time actually.   What Mr. Franklin was doing that night during the lightning storm was trying to prove the electrical nature of lightning.

When he flew his silk kite with key at the end of it that night, a lot of people will tell you that it was struck by lightning.  Again, not true.  What he did notice was the fibers standing straight out …

The History Of The Chocolate Chip Cookie

The word ‘cookie’ is derived from the Dutch word ‘koekje’, which meant “small or little cake.

Then rather than waste the batter, it was baked again along with the larger (apparently more preferred) cake, and it would often come out crispy.

Now, Onto the History of Chocolate Chip Cookies…

In 1930, a dietitian who owned a tourist …
