Sharpening humor

[Aaron Rappaport]

I just had to share this. Here's a Google-generated ad on the Australian woodworkforums.com site, on a thread discussing sharpening with a belt sander:

Be a Belt Sander Stone
Be a Belt Sander Stone w/ an Online Degree. Get Info!

You can get a degree in anything, I suppose !

They've apparently caught their error; it now offers me the chance to become a police officer. I've known and respect way too many police officers to find that amusing.

Still, returning to the original ad you saw: I suspect we all know folks who would need a degree to be as smart as a sharpening stone. Heck, I've worked for a few.

They probably have a skewed perspective.

Rick, that is just plane corny.

Yes this is kind of gritty humor. I suppose we could try to hone it in a little bit. Then it may be a bit more polished.

All right, all right, strop it you two.

You guys are making me laugh so hard, I might lose control and take a #1.
