Well, here is a first attempt at regaining my sense of humor.... 
and then they voted! 
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which 
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking

him up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the north?"  
 
When another person jumped in and explained that the sun rises in the 
east (and has for some time), she shook her head and said, "Oh, I don't 
keep up with that stuff." 
 
And then she voted. 
=============== 
 
I used to work in technical support for a 24 / 7 call center. One day I 
got a call from an InDUHvidual who asked what hours the call center was 
open. I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days 
a week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end

the call quickly, I said, "Pacific.." 
 
And then he voted. 
============ 
 
So my colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria when we 
overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn

she got on her weekend drive to the shore. She drove down in a 
convertible, but "didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was 
moving." 
 
And then she voted. 
================ 
 
I was in a high school advanced physics class and the teacher was 
talking about a new military weapon that uses sonic waves on the 
battlefield to burst enemy soldier's chests. One InDUHvidual in the 
class spoke up and said, "Well that's stupid! Why don't they just wear 
headphones?" 
 
And a few years later, he voted.

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car. It's designed to cut through

a seatbelt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk. 
 
And then she voted. 
================= 
 
My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were 
discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought two cases. The 
cashier multiplied two times 10% and gave us a 20% discount. 
 
And then they all voted. 
================ 
 
I was hanging out with a real liberal friend of mine when we saw a woman

walk by us with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain. My 
friend said, "Wouldn't the chain rip out every time she turned her 
head?" I had to explain to her that a person's nose and ear remain the 
same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned. 
 
And then she voted. 
=============== 
 
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to 
the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never 
showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because they were 
trained professionals and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, 
"has your plane arrived yet?" 
 
And then she voted.
