I would, too, if I had issues like that - but so far we've been doing well with Amazon Prime (my wife loves it!)

Never understood that one! Until I realized it's a lawyer -- it's probably an  abbreviated version of the full 2,300 pages he would've written otherwise.

One comic suggested they got rid of the B batteries because when you go ask the store clerk for some "B batteries" he thinks you're stuttering & asks, "I  understand you want some batteries. . what SIZE of batteries do you need?"

&, the woman who said her farts didn't make noise nor a smell.

Her husband, "Chang the battery in y our hearing aid, & I'm making you an  appointment to see the doctor about your clogged sinuses."

We bought a room air conditioner from Amazon that's working very well. . . I have it set to 23C (~76F)

Who says it was a government-funded study? Maybe the makers of BEAN-O  commissioned it. .

I didn't know face farts were a thing, at any level. . .  (ick)
