GONE IN SECONDS!

by Bill Kochman

12-14-2025

Oh friend, you’ve just got to love MAD,
I’m not talkin’ ’bout the old magazine,
I mean “Mutually Assured Destruction”,
Where there is no one left to be seen.

Oh yeah, everyone gone in mere seconds,
As a bright cloud rises in the skies,
All those pols kept talkin’ ’bout peace,
But it was all just their deceptive lies.

They all had smiles etched on their faces,
As they kept speaking to the other side,
But in their hearts they prepared for war,
Yeah, those jerks just deceived and lied.

Sure, “Peace, peace!” they kept on saying,
There’s no need for us to have any fears,
Yet everything is now so amazingly bright,
And then that great heat wave hits my ears.

I didn’t even have seconds to really think,
Nor was there any time to register the pain,
As strange gray flakes fall from the skies,
I’ve become a part of the radioactive rain.

Billions of other folks are all just like me,
One minute we were here and then we were not,
While the elites hide down in their bunkers,
I truly hope that in Hell they will all rot.

None of those who died ever asked for this,
We simply wanted to live our lives in peace,
But constant greed and hunger for more power,
Meant that humanity’s wars would never cease.

Then finally the fools pushed the darn button,
Everyone everywhere must’ve seen a huge flash,
Now we gently and slowly settle to the ground,
We are just a nondescriptive part of the ash.

Quirky Bill — Unique Bathroom Design



#Humor #Humorous #Funny #QuirkyBill

UNIQUE BATHROOM DESIGN

At first glance, one may be tempted to mock and ridicule this bathroom design. He may even consider it a major architectural design flaw, or theorize that perhaps the construction workers were drinking on the job. However, that is the furthest thing from the truth. In fact, this design was intentional, and offers some unique advantages over traditional bathroom designs. For example:

1. It prevents the cat from becoming trapped in the bathroom.

2. It is easier to hear when the bathtub water is overflowing.

3. It lowers the risk of suicide.

4. It motivates members of multi-member families to not spend more than their allotted time in the bathroom each morning.

5. An angry spouse can never slam the bathroom door in your face when there is a disagreement.

6. A creaking door will never give you away when you sneak into the bathroom in the wee hours of the morning to do whatever you are doing in there.

7. Inhibits reading girlie mags while sitting on the john.

Feel free to add other positive aspects of this type of bathroom design. There are obviously many more.

Quirky Bill — Important Health Advisory!



#Humor #Humorous #Funny #QuirkyBill

INVASIVE SPECIES IDENTIFIED! DO NOT GO BAREFOOT!

If you should at any time see or encounter the creature which is shown in the accompanying photograph, do NOT make any attempt to approach it; because if you do, it may very well be the last thing that you ever do in this present life.

In particular, do NOT make any attempt to smash it with your foot! I repeat, even though you may be very tempted to do so, do NOT make any attempt to smash the creature with your foot! I cannot over-emphasize the importance of this point! Allow me to explain to you why this health advisory is being issued.

As should be rather evident by its appearance, this devilish-looking creature possesses a very hard exoskeleton. That being the case, if you were to really try smashing it with your foot, it is quite possible — and in fact, highly likely — that one of its very sharp appendages would penetrate your footwear — assuming you are wearing any — and thus pierce deeply into the flesh of your foot.

Now, my friend, this is where the REAL danger begins, so beware, and pay close attention to the following paragraphs!

You see, similar to lionfish, scorpionfish and stonefish which inhabit the Pacific Ocean — and other tropical regions of the world’s oceans — which can very seriously injure — and in rare cases even kill — a distracted diver or snorkeler who accidentally steps on them, the deadly barbs on this hideous-looking creature can ALSO inject poison into one’s bloodstream.

My friend, believe me when I tell you that it is an experience which you will never ever forget for as long as you live! That is, assuming that you even live long enough to tell the tale!

You see, the minute that poison enters your body — even worse than a rattlesnake or a black mamba bite — a fiery pain will immediately begin to expand outward and upward through your foot and leg as the venom travels through your bloodstream.

Within mere seconds, your foot and leg will turn red and begin to swell. Within a few minutes, both your foot and leg will be as swollen as an over-inflated beachball as uncontrollable muscle spasms begin to violently shake your body.

My friend, please understand that you have only a few minutes left to live. Unless you take immediate corrective action, the minute that fast-traveling venom hits your heart, you are DEAD! Guaranteed!

There is something else that you need to know about this creature. It is an ambush predator. In its natural environment, if it feels threatened, unlike many other animals, it will NOT adopt a threatening or defensive posture. Instead, it will remain absolutely still until its attacker is up close.

Then, with lightening speed, a very fast reflex and a sharp thrust — similar to a porcupine — it will expand its appendages, thus making sure that one of its lethal appendages will penetrate the body of its attacker.

The reason why you need to be aware of this ambush tactic, is so that out of your human curiosity, you don’t foolishly place your face directly in front of the creature in order to examine it more closely. You’ve been warned!

Regarding what corrective action you should take, I apologize, but I haven’t gotten to the end of the comic book yet. Sorry! In fact, at this point, I am not even certain if an antidote exists!

Now, if you have read this advisory up until this point, then I congratulate you for being the most gullible person on the planet. Well done!

😂 😆 😀 🤣

Quirky Bill – Methuselah Has Legal Problems



#Humor #Humorous #Funny #QuirkyBill

METHUSELAH HAS LEGAL PROBLEMS

It was recently reported that an individual by the name of Methuselah lost his Social Security benefits due to the ongoing downsizing of the American government.

I am very sorry, but I must firmly, and resolutely, and with every fiber of my being, reject the preposterous claim which is being made by this announcement.

Be it known this day that being as Mr. Methuselah was NOT born within any state or territory of the United States of America, he is NOT in possession of either a valid United States issued birth certificate, or a valid American passport.

As such, he does NOT qualify as a bona fide American citizen, despite whatever claims he may make to the contrary.

Furthermore, be it known this day that there is not a single shred of physical evidence to sustain his claim that he ever held a single job within the United States of America.

If Mr. Methuselah did in fact hold a job — or jobs — within the United States, he did so as an illegal alien.

If Mr. Methuselah did hold one or more jobs within the United States of America, there is no evidence that he ever paid federal or local taxes. As such, not only is he an illegal alien, but he is an intentional tax dodger as well.

Also be informed that if Mr. Methuselah is in possession of an American birth certificate, surely it must be forged; particularly if said document states his age to be 969 years.

Being as Mr. Methuselah was not born within the United States, does not own a valid US passport or birth certificate, never legally worked within the United States of America, and never paid taxes within the United States, he is most certainly not entitled to Social Security benefits.

In light of the aforementioned facts, Mr. Methuselah is strongly encouraged to self-deport immediately, before the full weight of American law is brought against him. This warning applies to Mr. Methuselah’s immediate illegal family members and descendants as well.

You have been warned, sir!

Here is how to determine how honest your online friends are.

Post the crappiest photo you have of yourself.

Wait and see how many of your friends respond with “Great photo!” or “Nice photo!”

Either they REALLY are your true friends who simply ignore the fact that you are obviously slowly falling apart, or else they are flat out LIARS!

Quirky Bill — The Most Popular Guy



#Humor #Humorous #Funny #QuirkyBill

It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad. The social networks are all full of undoubtedly thousands — perhaps millions? — of bogus user accounts. Hardly a day goes by that I don’t acquire a handful of new female followers, all of whom seem to suffer from the very same symptoms, and all of whom are looking for a serious relationship and a decent guy.

Yeah. Uh-huh. Right.

Let me guess. Your name is really Omar, and you live in Pakistan, Nigeria or India.

Gotcha, dude!
