4740 - Long joke Sunday


Technically not a joke. (it is) It's an advice column written by a guy. Or not...



Dear John,
 I hope you can help me. The other day, I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching TV. My car stalled and then it broke down about a mile down the road and I had to walk back to get my husband’s help.
 When I got home, I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom with the neighbor’s daughter!
 I am 32, my husband is 34, and the neighbor’s daughter is 19. We have been married for ten years. When I confronted him, he broke down and admitted that they had been having an affair for the past six months. He won’t go to counseling and I’m afraid I am a wreck and need advice urgently. Can you please help?
  Sincerely, Sheila

Dear Sheila,
A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the vacuum pipes and hoses on the intake manifold and also check all grounding wires. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the injectors.
I hope this helps,
John

Talk about missing the point, LOL!

When asked about the coronavirus crisis Donald Trump said: "And you will face the sea of darkness and all there-in that may be explored (from Fulci`s "The Beyond" [1981])", just like Trump to be witty and obscure at the same time.

anne marie i have to say that was in appallingly bad taste, Fulcis best film is "Zombie Flesh Eaters" (1979).

Hahaha That took an unexpected turn!

Unlike the previous comment, this one was written by the real allenwoodhaven. The fake one needs to get a better life...

Allen - I wish he would use his real moniker, spod1000. Or even Loony John. But he seems to really like your name. He uses it on other blogs too.

Like you said Mike, its specifically because Allen doesn`t have a blogger account so i`m still able to confuse the blog owner (mo-girl-tarily at least, until they see the name Pauline Hickey, obviously ! ! !) by appearing to be that individual. Pathetic perhaps, but still good for a laugh here and there.

Who in the hell is Pauline Hickey?

Great story about missing the point.

Mike said...

Duckbutt - Looney John is obsessed with Pauline Hickey from long ago, a minor actress and model with big boobs. He leaves a lot of distasteful comments on peoples' blogs. Most bloggers have gone to comment moderation because of him. I haven't yet.

If you do a google search on Pauline Hickey you will see what little there is to see about her.
