Friday Funny July 12, 2024 Posting a Few Social Media Jokes

Happy Friday!  Seems like we are surrounded and perhaps assaulted by social media every day. So, we might as well laugh at it too.

Enjoy!

I decided not to follow my local fence company on social media, they do not have enough posts available.

The other night I was visiting the Facebook page of a famous cook.  I wanted to look at his thyme-line.

Did you know that the difference between a bench and a social media influencer is that a bench can support a family?

Did you hear about the social media marketer who broke up with her boyfriend?  It seems there was a lack of involvement.

Did you hear about the pastor who hired a digital marketing professional because he needed help raising his conversion rates?

Did you hear about the social media marketer who took up tap dancing because he was getting paid by the click?

Did you hear about the author who could not get his Facebook posts to go viral no matter how hard he tried?  It was “The Never-trending Story.”

Did you hear about the cat who was famous on Facebook?  It’s true, she was a real social meowdia expert.

I am very pragmatic when it comes to social media.  I believe that the ends justify the memes.

If Facebook had a “no one cares” button, would it be the most clicked option?

Million Dollar Marketing Idea #1

lgs

I make my living in the not-so-exciting and glamorous word of accounting.  However, some days I long for the exciting and exotic world of marketing where all the hip and cool people go to work.  From time to time I also have a great idea for marketing; however since I am a dull accountant, I never get to implement these great ideas.  Since I cannot use them, I will throw one of these out from time to time and when you take this idea, implement it and make your millions, you can write me a thank you note.

Have you ever thought about how baby’s and children’s clothes are sized?  They start at newborn and then go by months: 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months. After 24 months they move to years with a T for toddler for a few years and then just the number 2T, 3T, 4T, 5, and 6.

So here is my idea:  let’s use the baby and children sizing scheme for adults.

Think about it. If you are a ten-year old kid of average size you would wear a size 120, at 15 you would wear a size 180, at 20 you would wear a size 240 and at age 25, a size 300. Then things, hopefully start to level off and slow down and from there on out you can wear clothes for a younger age.  Imagine how you would feel if at the age of 50 you could wear what you wore at age 30.  “I’m in great shape for my age, I am wearing a size 360 instead of a size 600!”

Joe:  “Hey Bob you look like you lost a little weight.”  Bob: “You know I have, I am down from a size 420 to a size 396!”

You turn on a dieting commercial and the lady proudly proclaims, “I just took ten years off my waist!”

It could also work the other way, “I’m not overweight, I am just a little old for my size.”

I think this could really catch on and help us all feel a little better about ourselves.  Just remember to send me a note when you make the big bucks.
