The doctor calls for some “medicine” and puts three drops into the lawyer’s mouth.

“Ugh! This is kerosene!”

“And congratulations! Your sense of taste is restored. That’ll be $20.”

Determined, the lawyer returns days later.

“I’ve lost my memory. I can’t remember a thing,” he says.

The doctor nods, calls for the same medicine, and repeats the process.

7. Farm Rock Band

On a farm, a horse had always dreamed of being a musician. Every day, he’d stand in the pasture, strumming air guitar with his hoof and imagining himself rocking out in front of a massive crowd.

Finally, one day, he decided to make it happen. He called a music shop.

“I’m a horse, but I really want to learn.”

“Not a problem,” said the manager. “Lessons start on Monday.”

Soon, the horse was rocking out in the barn. One day, the sheep wandered over.

“That’s amazing!” the sheep said. “I’ve always wanted to play drums. Think your teacher would work with me?”

“Of course!” the horse said.

The sheep started lessons, and before long, they were jamming together. Then the chicken came by.

“You two sound great! I’ve always wanted to sing.”

A few months later, the trio formed a band. Their songs went viral, and soon they were booked for a world tour. At the airport, as they were boarding the plane, the horse went to the restroom, missing the flight.

As he returned to the farm, he heard that the plane had crashed, and all passengers were lost.

Devastated, the horse wandered into a bar.

The bartender saw him.

“Hey there, buddy, what’s wrong?”

The horse looked up.

“I just lost my best friends.”

“Okay, but why the long face?”

Everyone chuckles at the coincidence.

“Unbelievable! I work for Four Seasons Hotels!”

“Sir, are you alright?” the nurse asks.

“No, I’m doomed!” he groans. “I’m in advertising… for 7UP!”

11. The Dance That Took Forever

A guy asks his crush to the big school dance, and to his amazement, she says yes.

Now he has to prep.

First, he rents a suit, but the line at the rental place wraps around the block. He waits, and waits, and waits, but finally gets the suit.

Next, he goes to buy flowers. Again, the line is ridiculous. It’s like every couple in town decided they needed a bouquet that same day. But after what feels like forever, he gets his flowers and heads home.

On the night of the dance, he picks up his date, and as expected, there’s an insanely long line to get into the venue. After waiting yet again, they finally make it inside.

The music’s great, the atmosphere is electric, and his date is clearly having a blast.

Midway through, she asks him for a drink.

“Of course!” he says, eager to impress.

He heads to the drinks table, scanning for the punch.

And there’s no punchline.

The boss is skeptical but curious, so they fly out to Hollywood. When they knock on Tom Cruise’s door, the actor himself answers, beaming.

“Dave! Long time no see! Come in, let’s grab a beer!”

The boss is floored but still unconvinced.

“That’s just one guy. What about someone important… like, say, President Obama?”

“Sure thing!” Dave replies.

They head to Washington, D.C., where Obama spots Dave on a White House tour.

“Dave!” he exclaims. “What a pleasant surprise! Come on in, let’s have a cup of tea.”

The boss is starting to sweat but refuses to back down.

“Okay, okay… what about the Pope? You can’t possibly know the Pope.”

Dave just grins.

“Let’s go to the Vatican, then.”

They arrive in Rome, and St. Peter’s Square is packed with a sea of people waiting to see the Pope. Dave sighs.

“Listen, it’ll take forever for him to notice me down here. Give me ten minutes, I’ll go up to the balcony with him.”

Before the boss can object, Dave vanishes into the crowd. Sure enough, ten minutes later, he appears on the balcony, smiling and waving alongside the Pope.

The boss stares up in shock, and the stranger next to him nudges him.

“Hey! Who’s that old guy up there with Dave?”

My Manicurist Told Me About Her Lover, Only to Realize She Was Talking About My Husband

My husband surprised me with an appointment with my manicurist, but during our session, I discovered the woman was cheating with him! Angry, I tried to retaliate by getting revenge, but when the truth came out, I was left with egg on my face!

When I went in for my manicurist appointment that day, I had no idea that I was about to get more than what I bargained for. What I discovered had me seething as I imagined the worst about my loving husband. But before we get there, let me backtrack a bit to the day before…

It had been a long day of privately tutoring a mix of energetic six-year-olds learning their ABCs and a precocious eight-year-old trying to ace his fractions. By the time I got home, I was completely drained. Adam, my husband of seven years, greeted me with his signature boyish smile and a kiss on the forehead.

“How’s my favorite teacher?” he asked, handing me a cup of herbal tea.

“Tired,” I replied with a laugh, plopping onto the couch. “But your tea makes it better.”

Adam always had a way of making me feel like the most important person in the world. We were one of those couples people envied, with a solid partnership full of love and shared dreams.

We had just started planning for a family, and I’d been secretly pinning nursery ideas to my Pinterest board.

“I might have to work late tonight, and tomorrow I’ll be staying at work overnight, unfortunately,” Adam said, running a hand through his dark hair. “Big project at the office.”

I nodded, not thinking much of it. His job as a successful manager for a mid-sized marketing firm often demanded odd hours.

“Just don’t overwork yourself, okay?”

“I won’t,” he promised, kissing me again before adding, “To make it up to you, I booked an appointment for you tomorrow afternoon at Lily’s Luxe Nails.”

I got up and thanked him with a kiss before he gave me one on the cheek and disappeared into his home office.

The next day, I went and treated myself to the rare indulgence of a trip to Lily’s Luxe Nails. Lily, the owner, was one of my favorite people. She had a magnetic personality, full of dramatic flair and endless gossip!

Her stories always left me laughing or clutching my pearls.

As I settled into the chair, Lily approached with her usual wide grin.

“Honey, you’re glowing! Your hubby’s treating you well?”

“As always,” I said, holding out my hands for her to examine.

She laughed, taking out her tools.

“Well, at least he’s worth it. Some of us don’t get that lucky.”

Her comment caught my attention. Lily wasn’t one to complain about her personal life. In fact, she often bragged about her adventures in romance.

“Oh? Someone giving you trouble?” I asked.

She smirked, leaning in conspiratorially.

“No trouble at all. I’ve been seeing someone new, a real dreamboat! Smart, funny, successful! And let me tell you, he knows how to treat a lady!”

“Good for you! What’s it like?”

Lily’s eyes sparkled. “Our relationship is UNREAL! I’ve never felt ANYTHING like this before! Not even James compares to him!”

James is Lily’s husband. I’d met him before when he came to her workplace.

“I guess I am an old-fashioned girl, ’cause I could never cheat on my husband, and I’m pretty sure he feels the same way,” I responded.

“Girl, that’s YOUR loss! You wouldn’t believe how romantic he is. Last week, he showed up with flowers just because he ‘felt like it.’ You also haven’t SEEN who I’m talking about, don’t even get me started on his dimples!”

“Uh huh…,” I replied, still not convinced that cheating on Adam would be a good idea.

“He’s also a manager at some company. Busy as hell, but he always makes time for me. He’s planning to meet me tonight at that cute boutique hotel across the street while telling his wife he’s working late so we can meet up. I’m counting down the minutes!”

I froze, a strange chill creeping up my spine.

“That’s sweet,” I managed to say, my voice faltering.

Lily didn’t notice…

Dimples? My chest tightened. Adam has dimples. Adam is a manager. Adam was supposed to be working late tonight. I tried to shake off the uneasy feeling clawing at my chest. It had to be a coincidence…

“Well, do you have a picture of this ‘dream guy’? I’m curious,” I asked, hoping to quash my paranoia.

Lily grinned, pulling out her phone.

“Of course, darling! Look at this stud muffin!” she said, pulling out her phone.

My stomach dropped.

There he was, MY Adam, smiling in the photo with his arm casually draped around Lily. I stared at the picture, willing it to be fake. Maybe I was seeing things. Maybe it was a doppelgänger. But deep down, I knew the truth.

“Wow,” I said, my voice trembling as I lost it inside but kept it together for appearances. “He’s…definitely a catch.”

“Right?” Lily gushed, completely unaware of my turmoil as she placed her phone, still unlocked, on the table.

I forced a laugh, but my mind was racing.

“Excuse me,” I said, standing abruptly. I grabbed her phone quickly when she wasn’t looking. “I need to use the restroom.”

Once inside, I splashed cold water on my face, trying to steady my breathing. Adam. My Adam. Cheating with Lily? I felt like the ground had been ripped out from under me. But as the shock subsided, another emotion took its place: fury.

I wasn’t going to let this slide. I started plotting, and my revenge was going to be served cold tonight at the hotel across the street.

I quickly saved Lily’s husband’s number on my phone, as he was a big part of my revenge.

After I finished my appointment with Lily, I called her husband and told him everything I knew about her affair with Adam. He was as shocked as I was and quickly on board with getting revenge that very night!

Before heading to the hotel together later that night, I insisted we stop at the hardware store. James trailed behind me as I loaded our cart with cans of unwashable paint.

“What’s this for?” he asked, still trying to make sense of my erratic behavior.

“I figured we could mark the cheaters with it. You’ll see,” I said curtly.

When we arrived at the hotel, James and I stood outside the hotel with our “props,” ready to make the “couple’s” meeting unforgettable.

“Are we seriously doing this?” James asked.

“Watch me,” I said with determination as I marched straight through the hotel’s doors, paint cans in hand!

When I flung open the doors, I expected to catch Adam and Lily red-handed. But instead, I found myself face-to-face with an entrance full of balloons, streamers, and a massive banner that read: “HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE!”

My jaw dropped. Standing in the middle of the room were Lily and Adam, grinning like a pair of mischievous kids. Behind them were my parents, my sister, and a handful of close friends!

“Surprise!” everyone yelled.

I stood frozen, the paint cans slipping from my hands. “What…is this?” I stammered.

Adam stepped forward, his dimples on full display.

“It’s your birthday party, sweetheart! We wanted to do something special for you seeing as you ALWAYS forget your birthday.”

“Wait,” I said, my brain struggling to catch up. “So…you’re not cheating?”

Adam laughed, pulling me into a hug.

“Of course not. Lily, James, and I have been planning this for weeks!”

James smiled, and that’s when I finally noticed that he’d joined the others. He stood embracing his wife as Lily chimed in, “You should’ve seen your face! Priceless!”

I burst into tears, overwhelmed with relief and embarrassment. “I thought…”

Adam cupped my face, wiping away my tears.

“I know, and I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have gone that far with the plan. I thought you’d pick up what was happening when I booked your manicurist appointment, but you have to admit, this was worth it.”

It was…

The party was a smashing success, filled with laughter, cake, and heartfelt toasts! By the time we left the hotel the next morning, I felt like the luckiest woman in the world, albeit a little foolish for my earlier assumptions.

As we approached Adam’s car in the parking lot, we saw “CHEATER!!!!” scrawled across the windshield in bright red lipstick.

I groaned, covering my face. “I am so, so sorry.”

Adam just laughed.

“It’s washable, right? Besides, it’s a good story to tell our kids one day!”

As we cleaned the car together, I couldn’t help but laugh too. If nothing else, this would be a birthday I’d never forget!
