My father-in-law told me this joke years ago, which I had forgotten until a friend emailed it to me just now. It is so true to life that I couldn’t help laughing then or now. If you’re easily offended, don’t click on the link.

All the organs of the body were having a meeting,

trying to decide who was the one in charge.

“I should be in charge,” said the brain ,

“Because I run all the body’s systems,

so without me nothing would happen.”

“I should be in charge,” said the blood ,

“Because I circulate oxygen all over

so without me you’d all waste away.”

“I should be in charge,” said the stomach,”

Because I process food and give

all of you energy.”

“I should be in charge,” said the legs,

“because I carry the body wherever

it needs to go.”

“I should be in charge,” said the eyes,

“Because I allow the body to see

where it goes.”

“I should be in charge,” said the rectum,

“Because I’m responsible for

waste removal.”

All the other body parts laughed at the rectum

And insulted him, so in a huff,

he shut down tight.

Within a few days,

the brain had a terrible headache,

the stomach was bloated,

the legs got wobbly,

the eyes got watery,

and the blood Was toxic.

They all decided that the

rectum should be the boss.

The Moral of the story?

The asshole is usually in charge !!
(Picture a cartoon guy mooning you.)
