A man is in bed with his wife when there is a knock on the door.
He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it's half past three in the morning. "I'm not getting out of bed at this time," he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows.
"Aren't you going to answer that?" says his wife.
So he drags himself out of bed and goes downstairs. He opens the door and there is man standing at the door. It didn't take the homeowner long to realize the man was drunk. "Hi there," slurs the stranger, "Can you give me a push?"
"No, get lost. It's half past three. I was in bed," says the man
and slams the door. He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she says, "Dave, that wasn't very nice of you. Remember that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby sitter and you had to knock on that man's house to get us started again? What would have happened if he'd told us to get lost?"
"But the guy was drunk," says the husband.
"It doesn't matter," says the wife. "He needs our help and it would be the right thing to help him."
So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs.
He opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he shouts, "Hey, do you still want a push?"
And he hears a voice cry out, "Yeah, please,"
So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts, "Where are you?"
The drunk replies, "Over here, on the swing."

Originally posted by lucifershammerWhy? An un-named chap is being crucified, but instead of using nails they've used 'no more nails'. I would say that a glue that can support a human's weight is pretty impressive, miraculous even.
Sorry, but that one actually is offensive to Christians.
[edit; oh, and Christianity is offensive to me, so that makes it just about even then]
Originally posted by scottishinnzPlease. I give you more credit than that.

If you find Christianity offensive, I can assure you that Christianity isn't going out of its way to offend scottishinnz. Which is more than I can say for the cartoon...
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesThe reason is much simpler - darvlay's image simply wouldn't open in my browser. "Page not found".
I agree. I found darvlay's joke several times more inciting.
Maybe LH just didn't have the balls to stand up to darvlay and took it out on scottishnz. I don't blame him. The Wolfpack has darvlay's back, even though he's Canadian.
