A crusty Navy Master Chief noticed a new face and barked at him,
“Get over here! What’s your name, sailor?”
“John,” the new seaman replied.
“Look, I don’t know what kind of bleeding-heart pansy crap they’re teaching sailors in boot camp these days, but I don’t call anyone by his first name,” the chief scowled.
“It breeds familiarity, and that leads to a breakdown in authority. I refer to my sailors by their last names only; Smith, Jones, Baker, Jackson, whatever. And you are to refer to me as ‘Master Chief.’ Do I make myself clear?”
“Aye aye, Master Chief!” replied the recruit.
“Now that we’ve got that straight, what’s your last name?” barked the chief.
The seaman sighed.
“Darling. My name is John Darling, Master Chief.”
“Okay, John, here’s what I want you to do ….”

A man went to the family doctor and said "Doc, I think my wife’s going deaf."
Well, here’s something you can try on her to test her hearing," the doctor replied. "Stand some distance away from her and ask her a question. If she doesn’t answer, move a little closer and ask again."
"Keep repeating this until she answers. Then you’ll be able to tell just how hard of hearing she really is."
The man went home and tried it out.
"Honey, what’s for dinner?"
He didn't hear an answer, so he moved closer to her.
"Honey, what’s for dinner?"
Still no answer.
He repeated this several times until he was standing just a few feet away from her.
Finally, she turned around and answered, "For the eleventh time, I said we’re having MEATLOAF!"
🤣
