Guess the joke's on me!

Alright folks, here I am again, with another small contest. In my last contest I got a few funny stories, and I liked it! So here's another contest, dedicated completely to nothing but funny stories. So, as you might have guessed, I want funny stories!

"Really Ary? Is that it? Oh my gosh I almost can't believe it!"

Well, you should, 'cause that's all there is to it! Just be funny and share your funny-ness with me

Oh wait! There are a few small rules

1. No erotica
2. No bashing things (homosexuality/religion/etc)
3. Less than 2000 words!

4. Max of 2 entries per author! CONDITION: put your username in author's notes so that I know that you only entered two! Please play fair!) ALSO, I don't want to give someone two trophies... so you can only win one trophy!

5. I have the right to DQ stories if I find that they don't belong in this contest
6. Put this line in your author's notes, to check if you read this: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" (if you know a funny answer you can put it in too )

OH YEAH! I will comment as honestly as possible on every story, even if I don't like it!

Points and amount of honorable mentions might go up as time passes.

Good luck entertaining me!

  Conflict between Rules...and System!

  'Lo,
  Your rules state "max of TWO entries" but system is allowing only one!
