My beautiful silver Porsche is ruined!” he screams. A police officer on the scene shakes his head in disgust. “I can’t believe you,” he says. “You’re so focused on your possessions that you didn’t even realize your left arm was torn off when the truck hit you.” The hedge fund manager looks down in absolute horror. “Oh, no!” he cries. “My Rolex!” (Cheers, RD!) |

One night, an owl called back to him. For a year, the man and his feathered friend hooted back and forth. He even kept a log of the "conversation." Just as he thought he was on the verge of a breakthrough in interspecies communication, his wife had a chat with her next-door neighbor. "My husband spends his nights... calling out to owls," she said. "That's odd," the neighbor replied. "So does my husband." |

"You can't come in here," St. Peter said. The Pagan asked why... "You're Pagan ... I'm sorry", St. Peter replied. "But Hell isn't so bad. Your friends are there, and they say it's good." "But "Yule is a solstice celebration observed by Pagans as the second sabbat of the Wheel of the Year, marked with rituals to welcome the return of the Sun and celebration of light before Jews and Christians made up Hannukah and Christmas !" Peter said : "Forget it, we're in charge now" The Pagan was depressed, but went anyway just because he was, well - Pagan...When he arrives in Hell, he sees a beautiful green field with amusement rides, and people picnicking and having a great time...A man in a white suit comes over to him and presents himself as Satan, and then tells him of all the delights to be had in what appears to be a 4-star slightly seedy resort... "Woww!" thinks the Pagan, "Hell isn't so bad! I'm happy to be here." Suddenly, the sky gets black ...and fire spews from the ground. A screaming, flaming man falls from the sky and is swallowed up by a crack in the earth...After he disappears, everything returns to how it was again... "What in Hell was that?" the Pagan asks Satan... Satan replies, "That was a Christian. They wouldn't have Hell any other way! |

11 Jan 24 - 09:04 AM (#4195275) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Bill D Jack was from a poor family with many siblings. As the eldest child, he took up the responsibility of helping his parents financially by doing odd jobs, be it collecting recyclable scraps, cleaning, babysitting, dog walking or simple repair work. He had no choice but to drop out of high school at the age of 14 to work full time in order for his other siblings to have a chance at higher education. His hard work, dedication and skill with tools led him to be hired by a small local repair shop. There he learnt to repair almost every electric equipment under the sun. The shop owner was so impressed at his ability to learn different trades, that he even sponsored Jack to attend a few courses. However, being a small shop, the owner couldn’t afford to pay him a large salary. Jack was used to being frugal by now and saved whatever money he had to be used for his sibling’s education. His only luxury was eating naan at an Indian restaurant only a monthly basis. Realising that he could save a lot more if he cooked the naan himself, Jack bought himself a hot cast skillet, looked up a few recipes and began cooking. He tried and tried, altering the recipe and cooking method ever so slightly until he finally found the perfect naan recipe. Jack first let his siblings try the naan he cooked, then slowly began selling them to his neighbours. Seeing a market for his naan, he opened up a small store by the road side and sold naan. His naan business flourished. He soon earned enough to send his siblings to university and open up a small shop by himself. There were many blunders and mistakes made when he first managed his own restaurant, but once he got the hang of it, he had enough money to open more and more outlets. He soon had 25 outlets nationwide. His rags to riches story drew the attention of media. When asked on his success, Jack grinned from ear to ear and replied “I’m Jack of all trades, master of naan”. |

He'd never heard of Big Earl and wondered what the fuss was about. Just then, this huge bloke, six foot eight and built like a brick shithouse, burst into the saloon, breaking off the swing doors, smashing chairs and grabbing the bartender by the throat. "WHISKY!" he roared. The terrorised bartender put a bottle of whisky and a glass on the counter. The guy brushed the glass aside, ripped the top of the bottle off with his teeth and swigged the whole bottle down in two big gulps. "Is there anything else I can get you sir?" trembled the bartender. "No thanks, gotta run. Big Earl's a-ridin' into town..." |

The baker grabbed a pair of tongs and a paper bag and took the rolls out from the window and put them in the paper bag. "And could I have two of those small cakes there in the window please." "Certainly, sir." The baker took another paper bag, and with his pair of tongs he took the two cakes out of the window, and put them carefully in the paper bag. "I must say," said the chap, "I'm very impressed by the fact that you use tongs to handle everything and don't touch things with your hands." "Oh yes," said the baker, "we always attend very carefully to hygiene in this shop. No human hand ever touches our foods!" The chap said, "I can't help noticing, though, that you have a long piece of string hanging from the front of your trousers. What's that all about?" "Ah," said the baker, "if need to go for a wee, I don't like to touch anything 'down there' for hygiene reasons, so I pull the piece of string and my old man simply pops out and I can have a wee!" "Wow, that's very hygienic," said the chap. "Just one little thing, though. How do you manage to put your, er, 'old man' back in again once you've had a wee?" "No problem," said the baker.

25 Feb 24 - 03:54 AM (#4197919) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Another one from Steve This bloke in America was on trial for murder. A conviction would mean the death sentence. His best mate spotted a chap on the jury who looked a bit like a leftie hippie liberal, so he thought he'd have a go at bribing him. He sought the juror out secretly, and offered him ten thousand dollars if he could get the conviction changed to manslaughter. A few weeks later the trial finished and the verdict was manslaughter. The convicted man's friend met up with the juror, gave him the ten grand, thanked him profusely and asked him how he'd done it. "Well, it wasn't easy," he said. "I did persuade the other eleven to convict him of manslaughter in the end as you asked, even though the rest of them wanted to let him go..." |

25 Feb 24 - 08:23 AM (#4197949) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel a joke needs correction. In America, a jury does not decide charges. An alternate charge must be made by the State or prosecution and there are rules that apply to that. A jury may only determine guilty, not guilty, or hopelessly hung. They can not decide on a lesser or greater charge. There is great latitude when awarding penalties and damages. A woman is on trial for beating her husband to death with his guitar collection. The judge asks her "First offender?" She replies "No, first a Gibson, then a Fender." I finished a murder trial, I was representing the defendant. The only defence I had was that there was no body found. I knew I was going to lose the case, so for my closing argument, I looked at my watch and I told the jury the victim is going to walk through that door in a minute. The entire jury looked over at the door waiting for the person to walk through. Of course, the person did not walk through. I then told the jury, look, that proves you have some reasonable doubt that my client is nnocent because you were waiting for the victim to walk through the door. That’s it, that was my closing argument. The jury came back with a guilty verdict. I asked the jury after, and I said you all looked at the door. The jury said ‘Yeah, we all did look at the door. But guess who did not? Your client.’ |

28 Feb 24 - 04:52 PM (#4198238) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome 150! A couple were in the restaurant. They noticed that the waiter's fingers and thumbs were in the soup he brought them. They were annoyed but said nowt. But the same thing happened with the main course - his finger and thumb tips were in the gravy. They fumed but decided not to spoil a beautiful evening. But when the puddings arrived with his digits in the custard, it was a bridge too far. "Oi, mate, what the hell do you think you're doing!" "Well, I have arthritis in my fingers and thumbs and the doctor told me to keep them warm at all times..." "That's disgusting! You'll get no tip from me and you can shove your arthritic fingers up your arse!" He said, "I do, in between courses..." |

And when we grew up, we wanted to be like those bears. And then we got our hearts broken, because we found out that life wasn’t going to let us do that, and it was impossible to shoot love out of your chest. However … I have shot love onto somebody’s chest before.” |

At 9.30 on the Monday in the depot, the bus inspector saw the bloke sitting at the wheel but not moving. "What's going on here? You were due to leave at 9!" "I can't go yet - the bus conductor hasn't turned up..." "'Bus conductor'? Good heavens, man, we did away with those decades ago! These days, you have to collect the fares yourself!" So off he went. Four hours later, the bus, now two hours late, hadn't returned. The inspector got in his car and drove round the route and, to his horror, came upon the bus on its side in the village pond, the driver sitting on the grass in tears. "What's happened here?" asked the inspector. "I can't understand it, sir. I went upstairs to collect the fares and the next thing I knew the bus had crashed into the water!" |

The pilot said, "What I really fancy right now is a good hard shag and a cup of coffee." Unfortunately, he hadn't realised that he'd left on the intercom, so the passengers in the cabin had heard every word. The female flight attendant, who was at the rear of the cabin, realising what had happened, dashed up the cabin towards the cockpit door, hoping to tell the pilot to switch off the mic and limit further damage. As she was about to reach the cockpit, a passenger called out to her, "Don't forget his coffee, darling!" |

A man walk into a hotel restaurant and sits down at the food bar and orders a hamburger. The hamburger is the biggest burger he's ever seen. "Why is this so huge?" the man asks. The bartender says, "Well everything is big in Texas." Then the man orders a beer, and this too is very large. "Man why is that so big, I'll never be able to finish it." "Well I told you, everything's big in Texas." The man eats his food and finishes off the beer, gets drunk, and has to use the bathroom. "Sir, where are the bathrooms?" "Down the hall and to the left." So the man goes toward the bathroom and forgets which way the bartender said, and goes to the door on the right instead.

19 Mar 24 - 04:24 AM (#4199314) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: The Sandman A man suddenly appeared at the gates of Hell… (Story Joke) He looked up to see the Devil sitting at a chair. “Hello my friend,” The Devil said kindly, “How are you this fine eternity?” “A bit confused,” the man replied, “I didn’t realise that I was dead.” “I understand,” the Devil said sympathetically, “Why don’t you tell me how you got here?” The man sighed, “I was eating a delicious burrito when I choked. No one was with me and I suffocated.” “Killed by a burrito!” The Devil roared, flipping his desk, “What an unjust way to go. Did you at least go out eating a super sized one?!” “No, just a regular size.” The man replied sadly, hanging his head in shame. “This is even worse!” The Devil cried. “What can you do about it?” The man replied sadly. The Devil thought for a moment, before stating, “I will send you back. I’m not having you end your life on a sacred Mexican dish. Go back to Earth and continue your delightful life! Eat more Mexican until the toilet bowl quivers at your approach.” With a clap of his hands the Devil sent the man back to Earth. After a few minutes another person appeared, this time a woman. She looked at the Devil and sighed. “Damn,” she said. “What happened my dear?” The Devil replied, offering her a glass of sparkling water. “I was trying to be environmentally conscious with a metal straw instead of plastic.” “Good for you!” The Devil nodded, “We have just recently pledged to go 100% renewable in Hell. Slave labour is an underrated renewable asset you know.” The woman gave a reluctant nod in agreement. “Sorry to interrupt,” the Devil said, “continue please” “Well,” the woman said, “I was walking with my drink when I slipped. I fell forwards and the metal straw landed up and skewered me straight through my eyeball and brain.” The Devil promptly threw up. “My golly goodness,” the Devil groaned, wiping vomit off his chest, “this is a travesty. Helping the planet and you get turned into a human kebab.” The Devil stroked his horns, thinking. “I’m feeling good today,” he said, “You my dear can go back to your life!” The woman cheered in joy, showering the Devil with praise. “Oh stop it you,” the Devil said cheekily, “just promise you’ll stick to plastic straws. Screw the turtles and save your eyes.” He clapped his hands and the woman disappeared in a puff of smoke. A few minutes passed before a third person appeared. He was different from the others. It was his eyes, they were lifeless, as if all the soul had been sucked from them. “Hello my friend,” the Devil said cheerfully, offering him some bread sticks. The man stood gloomily, accepting the food. “How did you get here?” The Devil asked, eager for some conversation. “I was at my computer working,” the man said, “I’d been working for endless hours doing a thankless job. I stood up and tripped over a power cord. I must have fallen badly and broken my neck because here I am.” The Devil threw his hands in the air, “This will not do! You were simply pouring your heart and soul doing your job and died in the process.” The man shrugged. The Devil summoned a cup of tea from one of his minions to calm his emotions. The Devil smiled, sipping his tea, “My friend, I am feeling generous today. I am going to send you back to your life! What do you say to that!” The man looked around at the swirling pools of lava behind the Devil. The sound of wailing souls echoed around abyss. “I think I’ll stay in Hell,” the man replied. The Devil spat out his tea. “I’m sorry what?” The Devil, wiping his mouth. “I’d like to stay,” the man repeated. The Devil was still dumbfounded, before he finally managed to recompose himself. “Fine mortal, continue down the path to get your orientation pack from the information kiosk. Be up early tomorrow for lava swimming at 7am and then at lunch we’re streaming the final season of Game of Thrones.” The man nodded and went to walk past the Devil. “I’m sorry, I have to know,” the Devil said, holding up his hand, “What ridiculous job did you have that makes you want to stay here?” The person looked up at the Devil, his eyes empty and replied, “I was a moderator” |

The Methodists decided they should deal with the squirrels lovingly in the style of Charles Wesley. They humanely trapped them and released them in a park at the edge of town. Within 3 days, they were all back in the church. The Catholics had the best solution. They baptized and confirmed the squirrels. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter. |

To his delight, he discovered his beloved violin growing out of the top of what appeared to be a violin tree. When it was full size he plucked it from the tree and began to tune it up. Two angels rushed to his side and demanded to know what he was doing. "I was going to play the violin". Oh dear you must not do that. You see God is a saxophonist and dislikes string music including the harp. Dejected, Albert said "oh my I didn't expect tyrants in heaven". The angels scowled and said you are free to admire the violin but you may not play with GOD, it is a rule for all physicists! Just then a saxophone was heard playing 'Take the A Train'. Einstein couldn't resist and he tucked the violin under his chin and began to play. A tall heavy set God appeared and kicked Einstein squarely in the balls sending his violin flying into pieces on the marble like floor. Lying there with smashed balls Einstein groaned as the angels hovered over him. You are not allowed to play with God and for GOD'S SAKE don't ever take the melody away from God.

Of course the biggest pull was the llamas that they managed to sell at discount prices because of the sheer volume that they could trade. It all went well until cars became very popular in the 1950s and the big American cars took over pride of place where previously there had been hundreds of llamas. Lots of the market closed down but a very enterprising local businessman opened, in one of the empty spaces, a Chinese takeaway specialing in the local lamb and bamboo shoots that grew surpisingly well in the wet valleys of the Andes. This became very popular with the American car salesman who sang its praises so much that famous US rock and roll stars started to visit regularly.

I may have posted these before but they're always good for a laugh..... The funeral was held today for the man who invented air conditioning. Hundreds of fans attended. The man who invented the ‘Hokey Cokey’ died last week. Things went OK until they tried to put him in his coffin…. ‘’They put his left leg in’’…………. It was difficult to overcome my addiction to the ‘Hokey-Cokey’ but I turned myself round and that’s what it’s all about. The man who invented speedboats died on Monday. His funeral, tomorrow, is followed by a ‘wake’. Apparently the man who invented predictive text has passed away. His funfair is on Monkey. Apparently the man who invented cough lozenges has died….. There’ll be no coffin at his funeral. At my funeral, I want the bouquet taken from my coffin and thrown to the crowd, to see who’s next!! Yesterday, the man who invented Velcro died…. RIP. The man who invented the remote control died yesterday. He is being buried down the back of a sofa. One of the top pianists in the world died yesterday. His funeral will be low key. |

28 Mar 24 - 09:10 PM (#4199963) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Neil D This guy walks into a bar and sets a large box on the barstool next to him. The barkeep comes over and says "What'll you have?" The man says I'm a bit short on funds at the moment but if I show you something amazing will you stand me to a drink?" The bartender looks skeptical and says it would have to be pretty incredible. So the man opens the box and pulls out a tiny grand piano and an itsy-bitsy stool. The he pulls out a chipmunk and sits him on the stool and lo and behold the chipmunk begins to play some Beethoven ... and he's brilliant. The barman allows that that was pretty incredible and pours the guy a double shot of scotch. After finishing his drink the many offers to show the bartender something even more amazing for another drink. He replies "More amazing than a chipmunk pianist? Show me what you got." The man reaches back into the box and sets a little dog up on the bar. The chipmunk plays an intro and then the wee dog begins to sing. He sings Danny Boy and there's not a dry eye in the house. The bartender pours him another stiff one and then he says "You seem to be down on your luck, how about I buy these animals?" The guy says " Well, the chipmunks been with me for long time but I guess I could part with the dog." They agree on a price and the barman takes the dog in the back to feed him. A third man standing nearby begins to berate the man saying "How could you sell that dog. Why a singing dog could make you a fortune." The places a finger to his lips and says "Shhh, the chipmunk is a ventriloquist" and quickly exits the bar. |

One day, the wife said to her husband, "Please go into the kitchen and get me some ice cream. Now, do you want me to write a note so that you'll remember what I want?" "Absolutely not! "he said. "I can remember a little thing like that, without you writing a note!" "Well," she said, "Would you please put some strawberries and cream on my ice cream as well? Do you want me to write a note?" "Absolutely not!" he retorted. "I can remember all that quite easily without a note!" So off he went into the kitchen. There were quite a few minutes of pots and pans being crashed around. Eventually he came back into the sitting room and presented his wife with a plate of bacon and eggs. "Oi!" she said, "Where's the toast I asked for?" |

You can do whatever you like in here - eat, drink as much as you like, play golf all day on our heavenly golf course, watch films all day in our luxury cinema - anything at all, no medical or any other consequences, you won't get fat and it's all perfectly free for evermore!"

Moses hit his ball which also went right into the pond. He parted the water, grabbed his ball, and went to the next hole. The old man hit his ball right at the pond but, before the ball hit the water, a fish jumped out and caught the ball, and before the fish could fall back in the water a huge eagle swooped down and snatched it out of midair. As the eagle flew over the putting green, it dropped the fish and the ball flew out of the fish's mouth and rolled into the hole. Jesus looked at the old man and said “Nice going dad.

Observational humor works well over here. I don't have fellow writers to bounce ideas back and forth but I HAVE SOME INTERESTING BRAIN DROPPINGS every year or two. I live the embarrassment of Larry David without presenting it as entertainment or art. He gets good help though. A wife got so mad at her husband she packed his bags and told him to get out. As he walked to the door she yelled, "I hope you die a long, slow, painful death." He turned around and said, "So, you want me to stay? |

21 May 24 - 09:25 AM (#4202767) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Doug Chadwick The landlord of a pub had a dog that was well known to all the regulars. One night, as he was ejecting the last, reluctant drinker, he slammed the door on the dog’s tail, chopping it clean off. This caused much comment among the regular customers, and the tail was fixed above the bar for all to see. Some years later, the dog peacefully passed away in his sleep. He floated up to Doggy Heaven and barked at the pearly gates. St Bernard came to let him in, but noticed his lack of a tail. Rex explained that he'd lost it, but St Bernard said that they only let whole dogs in, so he would have to go back and fetch it. He floated down to earth again, and got into the pub through the scullery window as usual. He tried to reach the tail over the bar, but couldn't manage it. There was only one thing for it - he would have to get the boss up. He barked until his owner came downstairs in his nightshirt. The landlord was surprised to see his deceased pet sitting there but realised what he was after when he saw him whimpering and looking up at the tail. He shook his head sadly and said "Well, I'm sorry Rex, but you know the rules - I can’t retail spirits after hours." DC |

05 Jun 24 - 11:26 AM (#4203495) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome An old bloke gets pulled over doing 100 in a 50 mile an hour zone. The cop says “Licence and registration please.” The bloke says, “I don't have a licence. They wouldn't give me one because I'm blind. And I don't have the registration because I stole the car.” “Stole the car!” the cop exclaims. “Who's the owner?” “I don't know. I forgot to ask him his name before I killed him.” “You killed him?” “Yeah, the body's in the boot.” At this point the cop calls for backup. Three police cars arrive along with the chief inspector. “Can I see your licence and registration please?” The old guy says, “Certainly, officer,” and hands them over. “Could you open the boot?” “Of course.” The guy pops the boot open, and it's empty except for a spare tyre. The inspector says, “My officer told me you were blind, had no licence or registration, and had killed the previous owner and thrown him in the boot!" The old guy laughs and says, “Oh yeah? I bet he told you I was speeding too!" |

08 Jun 24 - 06:41 AM (#4203628) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Bloke got pulled over for drink-driving. The policeman was just about to administer the breathalyser when a terrible kerfuffle broke out on the opposite carriageway, two blokes kicking the shite out of each other. Naturally, the copper had to temporarily abandon the drunk bloke, so he rushed across the road to intervene in the scrap. The drunk saw his chance, so he jumped back behind the wheel and sped home. Next morning, there came a knock on his door. The same policeman was there, saying to the bloke that he knew he had been completely pissed the night before. "Well you can say that, but that was hours ago, so now you can't prove a thing!" "Fair enough," said the cop. "Tell you what - I'll leave you in peace as long as we can have our police car back..." |

He calls Jesus over and says “Oi Jesus, I’m dying for a Richard the Third. Can you keep an eye on things for me for 10 minutes before I have an accident in my heavenly robes?” “No problem Pete” says Jesus. “What do I have to do?” “It’s simple, when you see someone coming up the celestial ladder, ask them what they did on Earth and, if they’re OK to come in and, if they are, let them in. Nothing to it really” So Jesus waits by the Pearly Gates and sees this man approaching with what looks like a set of carpenters’ tools. He greets the stranger and asks about his life. The stranger says “Well, I was a carpenter by trade and worked at it all my life” Jesus asks “Did you have a son?” “I certainly did” replies the man, “However, he wasn’t born in the usual way and I sent him out into the world to learn and to do good. I pray that one day we’ll be back together” Jesus can’t believe what he’s hearing, stares at he man through moist eyes and says “Father?” The man looks at Jesus and through equally moistened eyes he says “Pinocchio?” |

23 Jun 24 - 07:01 AM (#4204299) Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Charmion's brother Andrew A duck walks into a pub and orders a pint of beer and a ham sandwich. The barman looks at him and says, "Hang on! You're a duck." "I see your eyes are working," replies the duck. "And you can talk" exclaims the barman. "Your ears work, too," says the duck. "Now if you don't mind, can I have my beer and my sandwich please?" "Certainly, sorry about that," says the barman as he pulls the duck's pint. "It's just we don't get many ducks in this pub. What are you doing around this way?" "I'm working on the building site across the road," Explains the duck. "I'm a plasterer." The flabbergasted barman cannot believe the duck and wants to learn more, but takes the hint when the duck pulls out a newspaper from his bag and proceeds to read it. So, the duck reads his paper, drinks his beer, eats his sandwich, bids the barman good day and leaves. The same thing happens for two weeks. Then one day the circus comes to town. The ringmaster comes into the pub for a pint and the barman says to him "You're with the circus, aren't you? Well, I know this duck that could be just brilliant in your circus. He talks, drinks beer, eats sandwiches, reads the newspaper and everything!" "Sounds marvellous," says the ringmaster, handing over his business card. "Get him to give me a call." So the next day when the duck comes into the pub the barman says, "Hey, Mr. Duck, I reckon I can line you up with a top job, paying really good money." "I'm always looking for the next job," says the duck. "Where is it?" "At the circus," says the barman. "The circus?" repeats the duck. "That's right," replies the barman. "The circus?" the duck asks again, "with the big tent?" "Yeah," the barman replies. "With all the animals who live in cages, and performers who live in caravans?" says the duck. "Of course," the barman replies. "And the tent has canvas sides and a big canvas roof with a hole in the middle?" persists the duck. "That's right!" says the barman. The duck shakes his head in amazement, and asks "What the hell would they want with a plasterer?" |
