2. But what kind of shoe?

[Haggis 4 Breakfast]

3. I read that as "ass hoe"

18. Or maybe it's a medical instrument that cleans you out before a colonoscopy.

4. It reminds me of a trumper in WI

Had one cornstalk with a sign that read:

CORN MACE FOR BLONDS.

6. Omg, I knew where you were AND where you were going before I opened the thread!

I saw that pic earlier and had the exact same thought; I was at work and I know people saw me crying laughing in my cube!

8. I would have walked by and said...

"gesundheit". I crack myself up!
