Sunday Funnies – LOLs – July 5, 2026


JMcAndrew sends this in, noting “I understand what the joke is supposed to be but Pringles can’t even legally be called potato chips. they are made from a dough using dehydrated potato flakes combined with corn, rice, and wheat starches. Not sure why but this really bugs me.”


More on the topic of Pringles from comedian (and former P&G salesman) Greg Warren:


Mitch4 sends this in: “Would it have made it better or worse to show that dryer’s load actually bursting into flames?”


Boise Ed sends this in:


Mouseover text: Paleontologists have long worried that the dinosaurs blasted into space 66 million years ago will once day complete their orbits and fall back down.


An oldie, but a goodie.

    That Pringles are not composed of sliced potatoes doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is that “mashed” and “peeled” are adjectives while “fries” and “Pringles” are nouns.

    As Mitch4 suggests, showing a dryer fire inside the dryer would be a nice touch.

    Dryer fires are no joke. (1) A neighbor left the dryer on while they went out to do errands. The dryer fire caused extensive damage and they had to move out of their house for about 6 months during reconstruction. (2) we looked at a condo than had had a dryer fire in the laundry room. The owners hadn’t bothered to replace the dryer, which was badly scarred with some other smoke damage in the laundry room. This was a “by owner” sale and the owner explained that the dryer still worked. We did not make an offer.

    Pringles contain potato, therefore the joke is fair. It never claims they’re potato chips. The gag is “ways potatoes are prepared, portrayed by people.”

    Dvandom is right but also Pringles in fact can legally be called potato chips. I do it all the time and nobody can stop me.

    They can’t be labeled for sale as potato chips, but the FDA allows Velveeta to be labeled as “cheese” so what do they know? If their rules controlled our conversational language we’d be unable to refer to the stuff from cows as “milk” until after it’s been pasteurized and fortified.
