Joke of the Week


Church Squirrels

In a small town there were three churches. Recently, the grounds had become overrun with squirrels. The three churches (Methodist, Presbyterian, and Catholic) decided to hold a small meeting regarding what they could do to get rid of the squirrels.

The Methodists show up and say "We've thought about it and if the grounds are housing squirrels, it must be God's will so we've decided to just let them stay and not worry about it."

The Presbytarians arrive and announce that they couldn't bear to harm one of God's creatures so a week ago they humanely captured them and set them free in a wooded area. "But" they state, "The squirrels have since returned."

The spokesperson for the Catholic church stands up. "We came up with an excellent solution."

Everyone stares at the Catholic questioningly. "We baptised and confirmed the squirrels and now we only see them on Christmas and Easter."

Sofey's Member Interview


This week's featured member is Evil_fishie.

Tell sofey: Trav mentioned your name as a terrific super cool interview candidate but I really don't know you at all but I think Trav was right so would you be willing to submit to my bumbling and stumbling and try to see if we can get an interesting interview for a future newsletter?

Evil_fishie: Thought about it. Oh, go on then! Do I get paid? Like the celebs do?

TS: Eventually, if he ever publishes it, you would be paid by having the acclaim and esteem of your colleagues on YT! How's that for a hot deal?

EF: .......Oh, go on then! I suppose money ain't everything.

TS: How did you find YT, what keeps you coming back here? And what are your favorite parts of YT?

EF: I am a journal whore, so that much should be obvioususussss....But I like to read articles too. I never comment on them though. The logic usually goes WHOOOOOSH over my head. I am 17 years old, I am at college studying Business Studies, Accounts, and Sociology. I live in England. Specifically Amesbury, but I doubt the majority of the world has heard of the place. I do have a job, but it's as a cleaner. Not special. I came here through Bored.com (didn't everyone? ), and the reason I keep coming back is because I just love all the people here! And I like to see how low people go. I think the majority of the Journals section is 1000m below sea level. Oh, the smut!

TS: So when you say "how low people go" you're referring to sexual references, or something else?

EF: Both! It seems that the level of stupidity in there is vast. Oh, I love it! I revel in it. But when the sort of person that comes along, insults everyone, and then buggers off again, that's a low point. VERRRYY low.

TS: Ooh yeah those are some low blows. What should I make for dinner tonight?

EF: You should have a potato. With tuna. And beans. And pepper. And brown sauce. With cheese on top. In a bowl. Mmmmmmmmmmm!

TS: That sounds like a good way to ruin a perfectly good potato.

EF: Was it the tuna?

TS: YES it was the tuna, exactly. and then the beans. Can you tell us how you got your name, Evil_fishie?

EF: Bit of a silly story, but here goes. When I was Scramasax, me, s916dave, and Kousei were talking (nay, arguing) about how evil cats are. Kousei didn't think they were. In another thread, me, and a few other YTers were worshipping a tank full of tropical fish. (Don't ask. I don't remember.)I said that one of the fish looked evil. All was well, until about an hour later. I logged out, but couldn't log in again, so I had to create an alter, Evil_fishie, and lo and behold, hither I be todayeth!

TS: Oh My God so I'm interviewing an alter? They'll tear me apart for this but I think it's going to be worth it. Do you have piercings or tattooos???

EF: Technically, yes. Belial is the original me. None that I'm aware of, but one day, I'd like to get this tattoo done(pictured above) all across my back.

TS: Wow, what does it represent?

EF: It's called the Rood Inverse, the Bloody Sin, the Blood Sin, or the Holy Win. Apparently the words around the edge are in a different language, and might mean: The body is but a vessel for the soul, a puppet which bends to the soul's tyranny. And lo, the body is not eternal, for it must feed on the flesh of others, lest it return to the dust from whence it came. Therefore must the soul deceive, despise and murder men.

TS: Wow that's really Evil sounding! Kill or be killed?

EF: I'd prefer to kill, thanks. I like my life, and I ain't having it ended prematurely!
