A gentleman was lying on his back on a massage table, wearing only a towel over his groin. A gorgeous Swedish girl was massaging his shoulders, then his chest, and gradually working her way down his body. As her soft, smooth hands approached the towel he began to get aroused. And when the towel began to rise steadily, she arched her eyebrows.
"Do you want a w@nk?" she whispered.
"You bet!!" he answered excitedly.
"OK then" she said "I'll come back in ten minutes."

Sir Hans Krebs also walked in and asked for a pint of Adenosine Triphosphate. The barman said "On yer bike".

A true Story from an Irish Sunday School Teacher

I was testing children in my Dublin Sunday school class to see if
they understood the concept of getting to heaven.

I asked them, ' If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage
sale and gave all my money to the church, would that get me into
heaven?

''NO!' the children answered.

'If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the garden, and kept
everything tidy, would that get me into heaven?

'Again, the answer was 'NO!

''If I gave sweets to all the children, and loved my husband,
would that get me into heaven?'

Again, they all answered 'NO!

I was just bursting with pride for them. I continued, 'Then how
can I get into heaven?'

A little boy shouted out: 'YUV GOTTA BE FOOKN' DEAD.'

Brings a tear to the eye, doesn't it

symbol.
Jung was very interested in mythology, so maybe that's what Etruscan masks
is about.

For Lacan, desire is always unrequited: we never know what we want and we
never get it anyway - something that most people find rather bleak, but I
find funny because I agree! Don't know about cretins (maybe - because
everyone knows that you're supposed to order/want beer, not cigars or
masks, in a bar. For Lacan, desire is institutionalised, in other words,
you only want what you are supposed to want.*) Don't know why this is a
joke.

Hope that helps (not!)

Pastor's false teeth
A Pastor goes to the dentist for a set of false teeth. The first Sunday
after he gets his new teeth, he talks for only eight minutes. The second
Sunday, he talks for only ten minutes. The following Sunday, he talks
for 2 hours and 48 minutes.

The congregation had to mob him to get him down from the pulpit and they
asked him what happened.

The Pastor explains the first Sunday his gums hurt so bad he couldn't
talk for more than 8 minutes. The second Sunday his gums hurt too much
to talk for more than 10 minutes. But, the third Sunday, he put his
wife's teeth in by mistake and he couldn't shut up...

"The impossibility of desire" is the same as the Platonic notion of love, where the subject only loves that which he lacks, (a person, artistic skill, money, fame, etc). Once the subject has attained their desire they naturally do not experience a lack, and so the desire vanishes, only to attach itself to another object, and so on and on. Kafka gives an excellent example of this interminable process in "The Castle" through "K" who throughout the story endeavours to reach The Castle but never quite manages to.

 

For Lacan the letter or words, symbols mark an absence rather than a presence. For Lacan the site of language is always a site of desire - which is desire external of the subject and the desire of/for the "other".

Not only was that not funny originally, the explanation was neither funny nor particularly informative, and Lacan ls/was wrong anyway...otherwise not bad.

Eternal Life
 
A bloke is walking along a beach when he comes across a lamp partially buried in the sand.
He picks up the lamp and gives it a rub. A genie appears and tells him he has been granted one wish.
The bloke thinks for a moment and says, "I want to live forever."
"Sorry," said the genie, "I'm not allowed to grant eternal life."
"OK, then, I want to die after a Labour government balances the budget and eliminates the debt.
" You crafty little bastard !!! " said the genie.
