There are jokes, and then there are jokes that throw you for a loop with a major plot twist.
And that’s the sign of a stellar joke. Keep ’em guessing, right?
That’s exactly what these gems do.

ME: Hi, are these genetically modified carrots?
CLERK: No, why do you ask?
CARROT: Yeah, why do you ask?— Todd 'Papi' Carlos (@TheToddWilliams) March 19, 2016
2. Wait a second…
I can't believe people don't eat the crust like wtf it's part of the food, it's fantastic even if it doesn't taste the same as the rest of the watermelon

7. Might want to have that checked out.
My son was SO cute today, he asked me “dad are clouds candy?” 😍 I told him they were water. 💦 Then he asked “Dad, what’s the Earth’s defense system?” and then I remembered I don’t have a son and he asked again with his eyes obsidian black “what is the defense system father”

15. Yeah, just keep walking.
Life is short. If you have a crush on someone, walk right up to them then a little past them and just keep going it’s probably not worth it
