Chistes: Sense of humor for a lazy Domingo

So here are a few jokes(chistes) just to end the week with some humor.

Un hombre cae a un rí­o y es salvado por un habitante del lugar.
- Gracias por salvarme la vida. Le darí­a cincuenta dólares en agradecimiento, pero sólo tengo un billete de cien.
- Bueno, en ese caso, tí­rese al agua y lo rescato de nuevo.

A man fell into a river and was saved by someone who lived there
-Thanks for saving my life. I would give you $50 dollars in gratitude, but I only have a $100 bill.
-Well, in that case, throw yourself in the water and I’ll rescue you again

Spanish Expression of the Day: MILF

So in English you say MILF when there is a really hot mom that you will like to… just try this Spanish phrase brought to you by Bueno, entonces…

Con esa mamá, para qué juguetes?

It translates: With that mom why would you need toys?hot mom

In spanish it does not sound as agressive as MILF in English. It’s more moderate, and it appeals more to the beauty of the mom rather than the action of having sex with her.

HOW IT WORKS: “Con” is a preposition and “esa” is a demonstrative pronoun to refer to “mamá” mom. The pronoun “para” denotes the reason and “qué” is an interrogative pronoun that Clustered to the noun “juguetes” toys, inquires the nature, quantity, intensity, of something.

TIP: When you an interrogative pronoun don’t forget to add the accent! Here is a list!

¿QUÉ? (what? which?)
¿CÓMO? (how?, what?)
¿CUÁNDO? (when?)
¿DÓNDE? (where?)
¿POR QUÉ? (why?)
¿QUIÉN? (who?)
¿CUÁNTO/ CUÁNTA? (how much?)
¿CUÁNTOS/ CUÁNTAS? (how many?)
¿CUÁL/ CUÁLES? (which one / which ones?)
¿A QUÉ? (at what?)
¿DE QUIÉN? (whose?)
¿PARA QUIÉN? (for whom?)
¿DE DÓNDE? (where from?)

Some Argentine Comics

These come from an Argentine comic site, which contains numerous cartoons in Spanish. Can you guess what these cartoons mean before reading the translation?

Pay attention to the wordplay in this one:

etapas

Marriage tends to evolve like technology:
1: The Cassette (Cinta) Stage; She gets pregnant
2:The CD (Cede) Stage; He gives up everything
3: The DVD (Dividí­–>verbo ‘dividir’) Stage; Divide the house, divide the car, divide the savings.

pamela

Man: “To think that I knew her when she started!! The time passed and look: she changed her form, every time more stylish…today she is almost totally made of plastic…and every time faster!”
Woman: “I’m not sure if he is talking about the 20 years of the computer, or about Pamela Anderson.”

peor“Honey, what is worse? Ignorance or indifference?”
“I don’t know, nor do I care.”
