Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]

Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]

Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]

Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"Whenever anyone says 'I can't,' it makes me wish he'd get stung to death by about ten thousand bees. When he says 'I'll try,' five thousand bees. ('I can,' one bee.)"
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish outer-space guys would conquer Earth and make people their pets, because I'd like to have one of those little basket-beds with my name on it."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish I would have a real tragic love affair and get so bummed out that I'd just quit my job and become a bum for a few years, because I was thinking about doing that anyway."

Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I hope in the future Americans are thought of as a warlike, vicious people, because I bet a lot of high schools would pick 'Americans' as their mascot."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish I had a dollar for every time I spent a dollar, because then, yahoo!, I'd have all my money back."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish I lived back in the Old West days, because I'd save up my money for about twenty years so I could buy a solid-gold pick. Then I'd go out west and start digging for gold. When someone came up and asked what I was doing, I'd say, 'Looking for gold, ya durn fool.' He'd say, 'Your pick is gold.' And I'd say, 'well, that was easy.' Good joke, huh?"
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"If aliens from outer space ever come and we show them our civilization and they make fun of it, we should say we were just kidding, that this isn't really our civilization, but a gag we hoped they would like.

Either that, or just shoot down the aliens as they're waving good-bye."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish a robot would get elected President. That way, when he came to town, we could all take a shot at him and not feel too bad."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
