Who puts fleas in a pint jar?

 

[Streifenkarl]

Someone get the white jacket please?

 

[DallasEast]

He's high alright.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Bro, what did you say?

 

[Doomsday77]

Ok I got it...We are about ready to take the lid of this offense! . Is this a James Washington reference?

 

[AsthmaField]

Doesn’t everyone keep some fleas in a jar?

It’s a staple in America.

 

[DallasEast]

Being inflexible is like a lid on a pint jar.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

The man is a prophet.

 

[RodeoJake]

Being inflexible is like a lid on a pint jar.

Take the lid off your mind and expand your potential

 

[Acceptablename]

Well I don’t think Jerry Jones analogy is the best I’ve ever heard. But he makes me laugh I enjoy his humor. If you don’t that’s fine

What in gawd's name

"I'm a flea man. I'm teasing on that."

 

[noshame]

You can also put them in a Johnnie Walker bottle Jerry

Reverend Rockport: Haters, now I read from the Book of Jerry. Chapter 12, Verse 18......You know you can put fleas in a little pint jar.....

This proverb Jerry told was stated by someone else recently. The story of the flea. It may have been in a film. Jerry didn't tell it well at all.

Fleas jump two to three feet in the air. You put them in a jar with a lid, they jump and hit their heads on the lid. After a few times, the fleas will jump just high enough to avoid the lid. If you take them out, they will now jump to the same height as if they had the lid above them. But the story goes further. When they have children, they teach their children to jump just short of the lid, even though they may never be in the jar again.

The irony of this seems to me to say, take off the shackles of life and you can do anything. My thinking is he is talking about the Super Bowl in this chestnut.

However, the paradox is that Jerry has always been the lid on the Cowboy's jar with his demanding to be a football guy and GM.

"I'm a flea man. I'm teasing on that."

"We're down to circumcising mosquitoes." The man speaks his own language.
