We could all use an occasional laugh. Post your funniest.

A suspected Covid-19 male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose.
A young student female nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath.
"Nurse,"' he mumbles from behind the mask, "are my testicles black?"
Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, "I don't know, Sir. I'm only here to wash your upper body and feet."
He struggles to ask again, "Nurse, please check for me. Are my testicles black?"
Concerned that he might elevate his blood pressure and heart rate from worrying about his testicles,
she overcomes her embarrassment and pulls back the covers.
She raises his gown, holds his manhood in one hand and his testicles gently in the other.
She looks very closely and says, "There's nothing wrong with them, Sir. They look fine."
The man slowly pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her, and says very slowly,
"Thank you very much. That was wonderful. Now listen very,
very, closely:
"Are - my - test - results - back?"
Enjoy your « afternoon lockdown »

Yoko Ono Sings on City Streets to Ensure NY Residents Stay Inside
https://madhousemagazine.com/yoko-ono-sings-on-city-streets-to-ensure-ny-residents-stay-inside/.
At the urging of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Yoko Ono has agreed to sing, to keep residents off of city streets.
Governor Cuomo stated “Yoko will be used strategically wherever and whenever a crowd forms. Just today we deployed Ms. Ono to Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where a wedding was taking place. There were 300 guests congregating and within 3 minutes, the streets were completely empty. It was a sight to see, those people were running through the streets and jumping out of windows to escape the horrific screeching.”
No one will know where or when Yoko will pop up and begin her screaming and caterwauling. For extreme cases, Yoko will perform her latest single, “Ear Splitter”. “I call that song the ‘H’ bomb”, said Cuomo. “It’s actually a little cruel, but extreme times call for extreme measures.”
Yoko Ono music was used on prisoners at Guantanamo Bay until Amnesty International declared it to be a form of war crimes and it was outlawed. Yoko said she got her sound inspiration when she was a little girl. “I saw a cat get run over by a car once and I just thought it was the most beautiful sound. I have been trying to emulate it ever since.”

Cops Urge Residents to Wear Pants When Checking Mail
'This is your final warning'
(Newser) – Police in a Maryland town have urged residents—or, perhaps, one specific resident—to remember that they still need to wear pants when they go outside, WTHR reports. "Please remember to put pants on before leaving the house to check your mailbox," the Taneytown Police Department said in a Facebook post Tuesday. "You know who you are. This is your final warning." Like the rest of Maryland, residents of Taneytown, population 7,000, are under a stay-at-home order. USA Today notes that pants are apparently no longer a big priority for millions of people working at home during the coronavirus pandemic: Walmart execs say they are selling more tops, but not bottoms.

Saw this today and thought it was fitting with all the protests emerging now.
I wonder if previous civilizations had to deal with whiners like this?
"Man we Gott open the gates."
"We've been through this, Phil. the Mongols are outside."
"But I've gotta harvest my turnips."
"MONGOLS"
"Ugh. But we've been in here for WEEKS."
"That's how sieges work, Phil."
"But the mongols have barely killed anyone in days."
"That's because of the walls, Phil."
"Are you sure? Maybe the Mongols aren't that dangerous.:
"..."
"I'm just saying, how bad could it be. They can't kill ALL of us"
"That is literally the thing they do.:
"But my turnips..."
Related, did anyone watch Avenue 5. The scene where they all decide this must be a reality show reminds me of what is going on now.

How much caffeine? Does it come in diet? And, since it is Russian based, is it safe to have near a 5G tower?

That is nuts, thanks for posting. .. about 3 years ago, my wife got Strep 6 times in ~7 months. Eventually a family friend and ENT doc, suggested our two boys get tested. Sure enough, they were asymptomatic carriers. We gave them antibiotics and my wife never got it again.
Also, I have a cat. Never thought about the possibility.

Monkey steals COVID-19 blood samples from a lab technician in India
https://www.livescience.com/monkey-steals-covid-19-blood-samples.html
A monkey attacked a lab technician on the campus of a medical school in India and ran away with blood samples from three patients infected with COVID-19.
The robbed lab technician, meanwhile, took video with his phone of the incident. After snatching the samples and other medical items, the video reveals, the monkey clambered up a nearby tree; that video, which was shared on social media, also shows the animal gnawing on what look like surgical gloves, Indian news outlet NDTV reported.

Trump's Bleach Moment Now Seeming Like Career High Point
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump’s widely ridiculed musing about the healing powers of household disinfectants now seems like a career high point, according to prominent historians.
While Trump’s suggestion that ingesting bleach could treat the coronavirus appeared, at the time, to be a catastrophic misstep, his actions in recent days have forced many historians to revise that assessment, Davis Logsdon, a Presidential historian, said.
“This week, we’ve seen Trump tear-gas peaceful protesters, offend religious leaders by using a Bible as a prop, and threaten to use the military against the American people,” Logsdon said. “In retrospect, suggesting that people ingest Clorox and put ultraviolet lights inside their bodies seems like the act of a responsible public servant.”
Logsdon added that, with unrest roiling the nation and unemployment soaring to levels not seen since the Great Depression, “Trump’s best bet may be to remind the American people, ‘I’m the man who told you to drink bleach.’ ”
“All things considered, that may be his finest hour,” the historian said.

Yes, Those Were Sex Dolls Cheering On a South Korean Soccer Team
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/18/world/asia/south-korea-sex-dolls-soccer.html
The club FC Seoul apologized on Monday after what it believed were ordinary mannequins — quickly recognized by many fans as sex dolls — were placed in the stands for a match against Gwangju FC.
Some on social media noted the telltale signs, like the business logos for sex toy marketers on the dolls’ clothing, or their strikingly buxom physiques. Of the roughly two dozen dolls in the stands, nearly all were women.
“We had tried to add some fun in the no-spectator match,” FC Seoul said in a statement. “But we have not checked all the details, and that is clearly our fault.”

With all the talk about wearing masks or not wearing them, I will admit I was very annoyed the first time people were telling me that I should wear a face covering while out in public. This was in 1998 !

I've watched it several times tonight, and it gets better every time. You watch the other two guys react (put the glasses on, lol), and I'm amazed they don't bust out laughing. Even better that the judge is the one that actually knows about filters. One of the first few comments "That's exactly what a cat would say". All of it made my day.

You know 10 years from now there is going to be a standardized test with the following math problem:
If Matt was exposed to Covid on Tuesday and had no symptoms four days later and he got it from Susie who caught it at a party three days before Matt tested positive five days later, how likely is Matt’s little brother going to test positive on an antigen test if he tests two days after Matt tests positive?

I had a friend that happened to. His daughter was scheduled to be married in 2020, which was impossible with Covid-19. The family had a private ceremony because the groom's Dad had ALS (and has since passed).
The wedding was rescheduled for last year. It was a Door County destination wedding. We were packed Thursday night and ready to go when we received a call saying the Bride, Father of the Bride and Maid of Honor all had Covid-19.
Since we had reservations, we went to Door anyway. But the reception was postponed with no make-up date.

I had thought impossible until a buddy's son had a December 2020 wedding with a full reception. We took a pass on attending that one.

One of my closest friends got married about a year ago. Originally was June 2020, but yea... His extended family in Ohio had been waffling on going to CO for the wedding cause "travel is not safe with COVID. Mind you none of them were vaccinated at the time for whatever reason. He and his parents sort of shrugged it of and moved on.
2 weeks before the wedding about half of them got COVID from a party at a bar they went to. Can't make it up.
Meanwhile the wedding was gorgeous and incredible, super fun, and nobody amongst the 150 guests had any ill effects

Well, you injected politics into a thread that specifically, right in its subject line, calls for non-political posts only. But anyway, from the oft-quoted (when it serves folks' narratives) Dr. Leana Wen:
President Biden’s off-the-cuff comment during a “60 Minutes” interview that “the pandemic is over” has sparked outrage from all sides. Republicans are accusing Biden of hypocrisy as he asks Congress for more covid-19 funding, while some on the left point to the disease’s continued death toll as evidence that the pandemic is nowhere near its finish line.
These criticisms don’t detract from Biden’s point. He’s right. By multiple definitions, the pandemic is over. That doesn’t mean that the coronavirus is no longer causing harm; it simply signals the end of an emergency state as covid has evolved into an endemic disease. ...
For most of the country, the pandemic is effectively over because it is no longer altering people’s day-to-day lives. To them, covid has evolved from a dire deadly disease to one that’s more akin to the flu. It’s still something people want to avoid, and they’ll take basic steps to do so, such as getting an annual vaccine. Some might choose to take extra precautions, such as masking in indoor settings. But the societal end of the pandemic has already arrived, a sentiment reflected in Biden’s comment.
