I wonder how many relationships have been destroyed by snoring. When my son and I visited Washington D.C. years ago, to save money, I got us a room with two double beds. He was still a young teenager, so this was no big deal to him. At least until nighttime rolled around. I don’t normally snort (at least not loudly enough to wake the dead), but I was suffering from a sinus infection and was apparently snoring more than was typical for me. My son was so distressed by it that he went to sleep in the bathtub to try to get some rest. OMG! I was mortified and felt I had ruined our vacation with my snoring. He assures me that’s not the case and we made some super special memories that will last us a lifetime. The technique used by the Navy man in the joke below wouldn’t have worked with me, but it sure is hilarious. Enjoy this funny joke!
The guys were all at a base camp. No one wanted to room with George, because he snored so badly. They decided it wasn’t fair to make one of them stay with him the whole time, so they voted to take turns.
The first guy roomed with George and comes to breakfast the next morning with his hair a mess and his eyes all bloodshot.
They said, ‘Man, what happened to you?
He said, ‘George snored so loudly, I just sat up and watched him all night. ‘
The next night it was a different guy’s turn. In the morning, same thing – hair all standing up, eyes all bloodshot. They said, ‘Man, what happened to you? You look awful!’
He said, ‘Man, that George shakes the roof with his snoring. I watched him all night.’
The third night was Pete’s turn. Pete was a big burly ex-Navy man; a man’s man.
The next morning he came to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. ‘ Good morning,’ he said.
They couldn’t believe it! They said, ‘Man, what happened?’
He said, ‘Well, we got ready for bed. I went and tucked George into bed, patted him on the butt, and kissed him good night. George sat up and watched me all night. I slept fine.’
