Joke No. 177

Positively Wrong

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class.

"In English," he explained, "a double negative
forms a positive. In some languages, such as
Russian, a double negative is still a negative."

"However," the professor continued, "there is
no language wherein a double positive can form
a negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up.
"Yeah, right."

Incompatible

Listening to a young Yuppie couple argue as they
waited for their prescriptions at least helped me
pass the time. When their meds were finally ready,
they paid and walked away. The druggist stood there
and shook his head.

I asked, "What's with them ?"

He sighed and replied, "They're incompatible. He's
on Xanax and she's on Prozac....."
