Hey! It’s Friday in America, and I kinda wish last night’s presidential debate was underscored with the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.
Anyway, here are Five Jokes!

Y’all hear about this?..
Instagram is starting to let some creators make AI versions of themselves. Leading many to ask, “Dayumn, that booty I’ve been zooming in on wasn’t A.I.?!”
NASA desperately needs new spacesuits and private firms are struggling to make them. This likely marks the end of NASA’s “uniform spacesuit” era — yet all signs point toward rules banning baggy spacesuits and spacesuits with skirts that rise above the knees.
A giant sinkhole has swallowed the center of a soccer complex that was built over an operating limestone mine in southern Illinois. Conservatives in the are believe this was God’s way of saying “That ‘Challengers’ movie was too weird.”
Oklahoma’s state superintendent directed all public schools to teach the Bible, including the Ten Commandments. However, he did not specify which classes this mandate should be implemented in. At this very moment, some student is shouting “Thou shalt not covet they neighbor’s wife!” between jumping jacks.
Finally…
The L.A. Lakers has drafted LeBron James’s son Bronny - making them teammates on the court, and avoid eye contact in the locker room.
