The Laxative Cough Remedy

A drug store owner walks in and notices a man leaning stiffly against the wall.

He asks the clerk, “What’s wrong with that guy?”

The clerk says, “He came in looking for something for a cough. We were out of cough syrup, so I gave him a bottle of laxatives.”

The owner shouts, “You idiot! You can’t treat a cough with laxatives!”

The clerk replies, “Oh yeah? Look at him… he’s afraid to cough.”

Heckle this joke

Got a better punchline or a worse take? Drop a one-liner.

Nobody has heckled this yet. Suspicious restraint.

If you’re flying somewhere, don’t even think about sitting next to the pilot.

If you’re flying somewhere, don’t even think about sitting next to the pilot. Not only is that seat reserved for the co-pilot, but yelling “Shotgun!” in an airport pretty much guarantees they’re not going to let you on the plane.
