Here's a good joke i don't think anyone's ever thought of before ever: godzilla vs bambi, where it's just like 15 sec long and a giant godzilla foot just comes down and obliterates bambi

A Game Show in Hell run by the Devil called "Wheel of Torture". It's hosted by Pat Sajak and Vanna White who treat it exactly like an everyday mundane episode of Wheel of Fortune, even the set is the same and they're spinning the same big wheel, but the prize is getting tortured.

Pokemon in Real Life, Except the Parts That Would Be Not Fun

Pokemon OSHA
"Alright, so you're looking to make a four-story dragon statue rise from beneath the gym floor, shoot flames everywhere, and then you want to have the Pokemon fight each other up there? I mean, sure, it's possible, but my major concern right now is wheelchair accessibility."

Going to Gym Battles
It's Wednesday night, and you and your co-workers have gotten tickets to the Gym Battle tonight, where some young upstart is gonna challenge the local gym leader. You've got your beer and your hotdogs, and you've got pretty good seats considering it's a full house. The challenger goes against the first gym trainer, and shows that he's got a Dark type, perfect for his eventual battle against Sabrina. He wins the first battle pretty easily, and then goes into the first teleporter and defeats the trainer behind that door, and the crowd's excitement builds. Then, he goes into another teleporter and gets sent back to the beginning. He retraces his steps, this time taking the second teleporter in the room, but gets sent to another room with another trainer battle. He goes back into the teleporter he just went into, thinking it will take him back, but he gets sent to an entirely different room, and looks around in a panic. He enters one of the four teleporters and gets sent back to the entrance again. Everyone in the crowd is booing and yelling directions, all conflicting with each other. The challenger teleports back and forth between room as everyone gets progressively more and more upset. Two hours have gone by and he still can't figure out the teleporter maze. Anyone who hasn't left is now drunkenly screaming at the arena.

Odd Age Discrepancies
Iris is the Gym Leader of the Dragon gym and she's twelve years old and works with ten-feet-tall earthquake-causing monsters and she rides on their backs as they fly in the air but I can't buy rubber cement from the local Costco without needing to show them my ID? It's bullshit, I'm telling you

John Mack, Second Grade PI

It was late in the day about 1 PM and I was contemplating a nap when she walked into my life.

She had strawberry hair and a Strawberry Shortcake backpack. She was trouble. I could tell by the way she held her pencil case and that far off look people get when they're deciding how much they'll tell me. And how much will be true.

Most of all though, I knew she was in trouble because she was in my office. You don't come to John Mack unless you're out of options.

I swept a pile of juice boxes off my desk and pointed to a chair. She grimaced at the cracked plastic, then settled in with a resigned sigh.

She looked up from a bottle of spilled play doh and said, "Detective Mack?"

"Just John."

"John," she said, "I need to find someone."

"Most people do. Are you willing to pay for it?"

She reached into her pencil case and pulled out an envelope. She slid it across my desk. Gummy bears and a lot of them. Sugar free? No, these were the real thing.

"Pre-war gummies," I said.

"You have an eye for quality," she said with a wan smile.

I gestured around the room, "Yeah, I'm a real coin-a-sure. Who's the lucky boy worth all the grizzlies?"

"Everything you need to know is in this workbook, John."

"I didn't say I'd take it," I said.

She stared me straight in the eye and said, "You'll take it. You need the gum."

She had me there. I looked into the workbook and shook a candy stick loose from a crinkled pack.

I champed the sugar stick in my teeth and said, "Yeah, I can find your man Waldo."

children from the cinnamon toast crunch generation grow up and as adults can somehow no longer see why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch

as that generation slowly comes into power politically they bring all of mankind's efforts to bear on the problem, most of the scientific and even military research budget is devoted to what becomes known as mankind's ultimate question

finally an announcement is made: our quantum scanners have determined that there exist cinnamon sugar swirls, in every bite, in a dense packing arrangement previously not thought possible, an explanation never before suspected nor seen by adult kind

the world rejoices, and a la the space race a lot of the scientific advancements that were made to answer this question become useful elsewhere in science, leading to a new golden age in the world

Cambridge, England, early 1700s. Isaac Newton is embroiled in a dispute with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz over the development of calculus, and is pontificating to his fellow professors on what a dick Leibniz is. Producing a parcel of loose sheets of paper, Newton snidely proclaims that contained upon them is correspondence from Leibniz, containing a mathematical problem and a claim that Newton's calculus will not be able to solve it. "Poppycock!" proclaims Newton. He will solve it, and rebuke Leibniz in the process!

Newton's audience watches as he intently pores over the problem, solving it piece by piece and chalking out notes on a blackboard. For the period, at least, it is an astounding sight. Newton is computing the problem at high speed, like a machine, almost as if he is in a heavenly trance with the angels. It is as if his mind and hands are under someone else's control, and he is no longer aware of his earthly existence.

The minutes tick by, the blackboard fills up, and Newton is visibly sweating. But still he forges on, unaware, until he stops. At the very bottom of the blackboard, he strikes his chalk across it in a horizontal line, and then taps the blackboard at the end, as if to punctuate it for emphasis. He turns around, bold, and triumphantly shouts "There! You see, gentlemen? The solution!"

Newton's elation deflates when he sees the faces of his audience, tittering in merriment and trying, vainly, to suppress their giggling. Newton gets a stern look on his face, turns around, and looks at the solution: "Newton is a foppish simpleton who huffeth his own excretory gases". In a rage, he pounds his fist on the blackboard and yells "LEIBNIZ!". For Newton, you see, has been so verily owned.
