Hear about new restaurant called Karma? There is no menu: You get what you deserve.
I know one of restaurants for sale in Germany https://tranio.com/commercial/germany/retail-property/restaurant/ which is being sold due to not having menu... It was their concept that you sit down there and the waiter brings you a any dish. Like a surprise me concept.

I'm surprised how deep this thread was buried. How about some fresh (non-political) humor.

Mid Life Crisis

A man in his 40's bought a new Porsche boxster convertible and was out for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair, and he decided to open her up. As the needle jumped up to 90 mph, he suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him. "There's no way they can catch a Porsche," he thought to himself and opened her up further. The needle hit 100, 120.... then the reality of the situation hit him. "What the hell am I doing?" he thought and pulled over. The cop came up to him, took his license without a word, and examined it and the car. "It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift, and it's Friday the 13th. I don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that I haven't heard before, you can go." The guy thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back." "Have a nice weekend," said the officer

I saw this a while ago in another thread, but I think it deserves to be in this "Funny" thread:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4wCYLTy-6w

(It's the "Sir, it's a Boxster" video, for those who don't care to see it again. I've seen it a dozen times and I still get a chuckle.)

Missing Person Report: Husband to Police Officer



Husband: My wife is missing. She drove to the grocery story yesterday and has not come home.

Officer: Age?

Husband: I'm not sure. Somewhere between 50 and 60. We don't do birthdays.

Officer: Height?

Husband: I'm not sure. A little over five-feet tall.

OFFICER : Weight?

Husband: Don't know. Not slim, not really fat.

OFFICER : Color of eyes?

Husband: Sort of brown I think. Never really noticed.

OFFICER : Color of hair?

Husband: Changes a couple times a year. Maybe dark brown now. I can't remember.

OFFICER : What was she wearing?

Husband: Could have been pants, or maybe a skirt or shorts. I don't know exactly.

OFFICER : What kind of vehicle?

Husband: She took my car.

OFFICER : What kind of car was it?

Husband : A 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, Carmine red, 580 horsepower, all-wheel drive, rear-wheel steering, Bose audio, HID headlights, active suspension management, sport exhaust, 20-inch wheels, torque-vectoring rear differential, navigation, rain-sensing wipers, Bluetooth, HomeLink, Apple Play integration, dual-zone climate control, cruise control, heated side mirrors, and keyless entry. I added special Pirelli P-Zero Corsa N0 tires. It has a custom carbon fiber spoiler and front wings, under-glow wheel well lighting ... At this point the husband started choking up.

OFFICER : Take it easy sir, we'll find your car.
