Merit Jokes

A Girl Scout troop leader suddenly came upon a clearing where a young couple was engaged in the act of oral sex.
"Get back, ladies, get back!" exclaimed the leader. "There's an extremely dangerous beast out there!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. A number of the girls had more-or-less seen the deed taking place. Curious, they asked their leader what it was the couple was doing.
Flustered, the leader explained, "Well, ummmm... if you really must know, they were practicing a brand new method of artificial respiration. Yes, that's it, it's artificial respiration!"
"Wow!" the oldest girl in the group exclaimed. "I sure know what merit badge I'm going to try for next!"

Mere unassisted merit advances slowly, if it advances at all.
