They're trained for that.

A beautiful Woman

A man walked into a bar. There, he saw a beautiful, smartly dressed woman perched on a bar stool.
Approaching her he said, "Hello there gorgeous. How are you?" 
Having already had a few power drinks, she turned around, faced him, looked him straight in the eye and said,
 "Listen! I'll screw anybody, anytime, anywhere, your place, my place, front door, back door, 
it doesn't matter. I've been doing it since I got out of college. I just flat ass love it." 
Eyes wide with interest, he said, "No kidding? I'm a lawyer too! What firm are you with?"

Jonah
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was
a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human;
it was physically impossible.
The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".
The teacher asked, " What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him".

White Hair
One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink.
She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on
her brunette head. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your
hairs white, Mom?" Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry
or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white." The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and
then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"

School Photo
The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a
copy of the group picture. "Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say,
'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, She's dead."

Blood Circulation
A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer,
she said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I  would
turn red in the face.." "Yes," the class said.
"Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?"
A little fellow shouted, "Cause your feet ain't empty."
