Should have quit
A man is waiting for his wife to give birth.
The doctor comes in and informs the dad that his son was born without torso, arms or legs. The son is just a head! But the dad loves his son and raises him as well as he can, with love and compassion.
After 21 years, the son is old enough for his first drink. Dad takes him to the bar, tearfully tells the son he is proud of him and orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the bar patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his head in disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol.
Suddenly a torso pops out!
The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The father, shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another drink!" But the bartender still shakes his head in dismay.
Suddenly two arms pop out.
The bar goes wild. The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another drink!" The bartender ignores the whole affair.By now the boy is getting tipsy, and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles the last of it.
Suddenly two legs pop out.
The bar is in chaos. The father falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God. The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the left.... then to the right.... right through the front door, into the street,where a truck runs over him and kills him instantly.
The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief.
The bartender sighs and says "That boy should have quit while he was a head."

There was this head, no arms, no legs or a body, just a head. It was his 18th birthday and as a surprise his dad decides to take him down to the pub for his first pint. At the pub they are sitting at a table enjoying their pints when the dad says, “I’ll be back in a minute son, I’m just nipping off to the loo for a pee.” So off he goes leaving the head by himself.
When he comes back he finds the head crying his eyes out and in a rather distressed state.
“What’s wrong son?” he asks. The head replies, “Those two men over there in the corner were fighting and someone shouted stick the head in.”
Feel free to groan :op
