Jokes, puns, and anecdotes
January 25th, 2006 @ 7:59 pm by zymetricA while ago we added a little note to the “special order instructions” box, (in the checkout process when placing an order through Zymetrical.com), that asked for silly jokes, puns, and anecdotes in addition to order instructions, just to see what would come in. This is the place where you would enter any order instructions, comments & feedback, or small notes to include with your order (if being shipped as a gift, for the recipient to read), etc.
This sort of falls in the category of things we do mostly for our own entertainment. As expected, the majority of people either didn’t have anything amusing to say, didn’t expect that to be there, or otherwise just completely ignored our plea. A few people however, provided us with interesting gems, a small bit of amusement, or something else entirely different. We won’t post all of them, but here is a sampling that shows the range of what was sent in.
If it is so dark in there, how does the poop find its way out?
What do u call a cow that doesnt give milk? a mlk dud ahahaha
Please note that my shipping address is different from my billing address. What did the grape do when the elephant stepped on it? It gave a little whine (wine)! Thank you!
A Jewish student was doing well in school in all subjects except for Math. So his parents decide to send him to a private Catholic school. While there the boy came home from school and studied every day. At the end of the marking period the boy got straight A’s. So his parents asked him, “What motivated you to do so well in school?” “When I saw that guy nailed to a plus sign I knew they weren’t fooling around!”
After all is said and done, more is said than done.
A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
Now we don’t want you to place an order with us for the sole purpose of sending us something funny, you can do that for free, but by all means if you are going to place an order and you do have something to say…
Filling boxes with crap all day can sometimes feel like a tedious and mundane task, even at a novelty company.

[...] Another month, another list of strange and unusual searches. Nothing terribly exciting, but we have alot of new ideas for products – motorcycles & .mp3’s seem like a logical progression from poop & rubber chickens the more and more we think about it, as does opening up a chain of international stores. For the sake of not making this too repititous, there were alot of things ommited that have already been posted, a la paris hilton and the like, so the results below aren’t entirely accurate. Without any further adieu, the 25 most interesting searches for May 2006. And in other similar happenings, our request for jokes has given us alot of laughs over the last few months. About every 4th or 5th order now has a joke of some sorts – along way from where we were just a short while ago. More on that a bit later… [...]
