Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 01, 2024

Oh, boy. I hope they’re going to display the two beer cans with the banana taped to a canvas.

It amazes me what some people call art. Public funds should not be used for art projects. In my town they just installed bathtubs on stilts and they are calling it art.

Art stopped being art after an angry Austrian was rejected from art school.

Can Flemish and Dutch people understand each other?

Two Flemish men are in Holland and see a poster: “Shirts – 5 Euros”.

They turn to each other and say, “Wow, that’s cheap. Let’s buy a dozen to resell them back in Belgium.”

They enter the store and say, in their best possible Dutch: “We would like 10 shirts, please.”

The man behind the counter answers, “Ah, I see that you’re Flemish.”

They reply: “Huh, how? Is our Dutch not that good?”

“No, you both speak it perfectly, but this is a dry cleaners.” came the reply.

I’ve never had a roach in my ear.

No. You were right the first time. Put it back in the bin.

Eew!

The guy who paid 6.2 Million for the banana duct taped to a wall, ate the banana. But he can’t afford to pay more in taxes, I’m sure!!

You sure it wasn’t created to help people START smoking?!

Dutch art…I guess if a banana duct taped to a board can sell for $6.2 Million in NY!

Frisbee is a brand name, which is why the game is Disc Golf to avoid legal actions. If his ashes were made into Frisbees whose revenge is that?

My kitchen is lined with works of art.

Many people smoke a “roach”.

I want a Astro pez dispenser…..

“Art”

Want to retire young? Ingest your favorite hallucinogen. After an hour or so rummage through the trash. Find, say, a coke can with a cigarette butt in it and a wad of chewing gum stuck to it. Tape it onto a paper plate and attach a note expressing your deepest thoughts. Call it something like “Gateway to Heaven.” Then sell it for a fortune at the nearest modern art museum.

I knew the one about Pez.

That’s got to be an Occupational Hazard at “Art” Museums… ☺

Reminds me of the Cheech and Chong movie where Chong has a jar labeled “Roaches” , and it contains both types

And here I thought the roaches were stealing my used q-tips for pugil stick practice

The “Frisbees” were all given away to Ed’s family and friends.

Haunted frisbees…?

I’m so glad I didn’t see this strip six years ago; I was in an apartment that had a cockroach problem.

Since we’re talking about Bowlers

Two bowling teams, one made up of all blondes and one of all brunettes,charter a double-decker bus for a weekend tournament in Atlantic City.

The brunette team rides in the bottom of the bus, and the blonde team rides on the top level.

The brunette team down below is whooping it up and having a great time when one of them realizes she doesn’t hear anything from the blondes upstairs.

She decides to go up and investigate. When the brunette reaches the top, she finds all the blondes frozen in fear, staring straight ahead at the road and clutching the seats in front of them.

The brunette says, “What is going on up here? We’re having a great time downstairs!”

One of the blondes says, “Yeah, but you’ve got a driver!”

My wife HATES roaches so much, she cringes when she sees them in bug spray commercials.
