The Jeep Wave:  The Definitive Guide

This is one of the first  Jeep "funnies" I found when I started Jeepin; and it's still one of my favorites!  What's also funny, are the posts I see every now and then about people voicing their disagreement with the Jeep Waving Hierarchy (JWH), the Modifying Sub-Categories (MSCs), etc., etc.! They feel that all Jeepers should wave to all other Jeepers.  Uh, Hello!  It's supposed to be a humorous play on the Wave; so don't try to treat it otherwise.  Have fun with it!!

Really Cool Personalized Jeep/4x4 License Plates

Okay; most of these aren't really humorous at all, but this seemed the most appropriate page on my site to put them.   I got started on this list after Eric H. posted on the Jeep-L that he had just got his new WRNGLR plates for his TJ, and was wondering if any other L'ers had some cool plate names.  Some of the plates I've actually seen myself, and others were sent to me by various people through e-mail (thanks for the contributions). Many of them are quite creative!

Why Jeeps Are Better Than Women

This is one of my favorites.  If you knew my warped sense of humor, you'd understand why!  I read this somewhere over a year ago, and have been searching for it again ever since.  Well, I finally found it again.  So here it is.   I don't know who the original author is, but I tip my hat to him (or her)!

You Know You Have A Real Jeep (Are A Real Jeeper) If . . .

This was a thread started by Doug C. on the rec.autos.makers.jeep+willys newsgroup.  Over time, the list grew as newsgroup participants added their comments on how to tell the real Jeeps & Jeepers from the poseurs.

How to Change the Oil in Your Jeep . . .

I found this on the Jeep-L; posted by Johannes W.  I guess the reason this one is so funny to me is that . . .; well, I just can't tell you how many times I've been tempted to pull into Jiffy Lube for my next oil change!!  But I just can seem to get myself to do it.  I guess it's a "macho guy thing"!  ;-)

How to Remove the Cork From a Bottle of Wine

"RJ" posts to the Jeep-L:  "Help me please!!  I'm having a female over for dinner.  I remembered everything (flowers, candles, chocolates), except the corkscrew to take the cork out of the bottle of wine!!  Is there any other way to get the cork out by using something else??"  Talk about "asking for it"!  Several L'ers replied with techniques ranging from the use of a screwdriver to a hand gun!!  But this is how I believe a Real Jeeper would tackle this situation (by David B.)!!

General Vehicle Maintenance

This isn't actually about a Jeep, but it easily could have been.   What it is, is an audio file of a telephone scam, played on a young lady by her father, with the help of a local radio station.  The young lady has her car in the shop for maintenance, and the mechanics find a few other "problems" with her vehicle.  Click here to listen (make sure your computer speakers are turned up).  Are there really people that are this gullible!?

Top 10 Reasons . . .

A la David Letterman.  From various people on the . . . guess where?  That's right; the Jeep-L.

Noah, on Building a Jeep

Posted on the Jeep-L by Jeff S.  Those L'ers sure are creative, aren't they?

Jeepers Who Enjoy Winter Sports

Most Jeepers are also avid outdoorsmen & women, who enjoy hiking and camping in the summer, and skiing and/or snowboarding in the winter, for example.  As a snowboarder myself, my favorite winter sport often competes with my Jeepin activities.  I couldn't stop laughing at what this Oak Hill, West Virginia Jeeper posted on the Jeep Unlimited Wrangler Forum on the subject of winter sports preparation.

New Mexico Driving Rules

Unfortunately, not all Jeep driving can be done off-road.  You often have to drive on paved roads to and from the trailhead.  Some of us even have to drive our Jeeps in the city to and from work. People who do not live in the southwest U.S. often get the opportunity to visit the awesome trails out here such as those in Las Cruces or Farmington.  As a New Mexico resident, I feel obligated to inform those of you who may be traveling in our fine state of the local driving rules, which may differ somewhat from those in your state.  Sent to me by a co-worker;  author unknown.

How To Load A Truck Camper

This obviously isn't specifically about Jeeping, but I often combine camping with off-roading.  Properly loading a truck camper is an art, and it takes lots of practice to get it just right.  I've been "practicing" since I purchased my Lance Camper in Nov 2003, and I still have problems.  This write-up hits so close to home for those of you who own truck campers, you'll die laughing.  I don't know who authored it, so I apologize for not giving credit.  I found it on RV.net.

How Many Internet Mail List Subscribers Does It Take To Change A Light Bulb?

Okay; so this isn't actually "Jeep" humor, but I did find it on the Jeep-L, so that should count for something.  Anyway, it was a post by Jason G.  I don't know if he created it or if he got it from somewhere else.   But I laughed so hard, that I had to dry my tears several times before I could get through all of it!
