Some old GDR jokes:

Brandt (West German) and Ulbricht (East German first man) did meet once and talked about this and that. Ulbricht asked: "Do you have a hobby?" "Yes, said Brandt, I collect the jokes the people tell about me." "Almost as I, answered Ulbricht, I collect the people who tell jokes about me."


Erich Honecker (East German Secretary of the Central Committee) stands on his balcony in the morning ans says "Good morning, dear Sun" Sun: "Good morning, comrade first secretary". At noon, the same procedure: "Good day, dear Sun" "Good day, comrade first secretary". Then in the evening: "Good evening, Sun" "Kiss my arse, I'm in the West now"


A citizen of the GDR wants to buy shoes but lost in thoughts misses the door and enter a butcher's shop and asks for shoes. The clerc tells him: "You must have confused the doors. No shoes you get next door, here you can only get no meat."


What is twenty meters long and has no teeth?
The first row of the central committe of the SED:


A GDR soldier very close at the border to West Germany asks his comrade. "What do you think at right now?" "The same you think at, I guess" "Then I have to arrest you".


What is the favourite sport of Erich Honeckers? Bobsleighing.
A wall at the left, a wall at the right, and it goes always further down."
