Eight punch lines in search of a joke

i
And the Pope said
I'm with the Jewish guy.

ii

Styrofoam? cried the salesman
I thought it was popcorn!

iii

Oh, it's not for me
he told the bartender
it's for my hippopotamus.

iv

There's just one thing
I still don't understand:
how come whenever I
press this button
you stick out your tongue?

v

But the King's ears
were upside down.

vi

I'll bet you've never seen
a gorilla in a tutu either!

vii

Me, too
said the Martian.

viii

And the moral of the story is
never
let anyone give you
more bull
than you can shake a stick at.
