Sunday Funnies – LOLs – September 20, 2026

A variation on an old joke, good for using with first and second graders just learning basic subtraction:

“Sluggo, if you had five brownies and Nancy asked for two, how many would you have left?”

“Five. I wouldn’t give her any.”

Yes, go where the money is.

Willie Sutton famously said he robbed banks “because that’s where the money is,” but these days the Willie Suttons are mostly trolling the internet, looking for people to scam.

A few months ago, I read “Kenau Reeves is Not In Love With You”, by Becky Holmes. The book centers around romance scams, but also discusses other financial confidence scams. One chapter deals with the scams from the other side: the scammers are pressured / threatened by their managers to achieve certain results, much like any telemarketers.

Ron sends this in:

Dirk the Daring wonders about this one: “This makes no sense.  If he is paid by the hour he’d take his time and dawdle. Maybe I’m missing something,  it seems back-assward to me.”

Kedamono sends this in as an “Ewww”: “I mean, YouTube videos on potty training? Yikes! Also, isn’t he a bit too young to have his own phone?”

Flea at last, thank God almighty we are flea at last!

Andrew Miller sends this in: “This sounds like a reference to some phrase. ‘Friends with benefits’ is the only similar thing I can think of and would be a stretch at best. Also not sure why one dog has opposable thumbs and a smartphone. Is the joke just “fleas are contagious?” That would be less of a joke and more of a useful tip for a child that just discovered them.

Since I have space in the comment box and it’s come to mind, I’ll recite De Morgan’s Siphonaptera:

Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite ’em,
And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on;
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.”
