Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 01 Oct 23 - 09:19 AM Three Hell's Angels were in a greasy spoon when they noticed that the only other customer was an old bloke sat on his own. They went over to his table in threatening mode, and one of them spat in the old boy's coffee, one poured a load of salt all over his breakfast and one put out his cigarette in his fried egg. The chap got up without a murmur, paid his bill and left. "Not much of a man, was he?" sneered one of the greasers. "Not much of a truck driver either," said the waiter looking out of the window. "He's just reversed over three motor bikes." |

Whilst he was still on the road the paramedic cushioned his head and covered him up, then asked him if he was comfortable. He replied, "Well I have few grand in the bank and a good pension..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 10 Oct 23 - 08:53 AM Superman and Batman were having a pint and sharing stories. Superman said, "The other day I was flying over a deserted island when I spotted Wonder Woman lying naked on her back on the beach. I zoomed down, thinking I'd I'd take advantage of the situation..." "Was she surprised?" asked Batman. "Yeah, but not as surprised as the Invisible Man..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: MaJoC the Filk Date: 08 Sep 23 - 11:58 AM .... Oh, and warning for those about to visit the Vatican: They installed airport-type screening kit at the entrance to the Sistine Chapel, sometime between our first and second visits there, and the queues then were four hours long. Perhaps Fabio's missus is still in the queue. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: gillymor Date: 31 Oct 23 - 10:59 AM I thought Mrrzy's joke was funny no matter how you choose to define it. I hope this doesn't lapse into a "What is a joke thread?". |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: gillymor Date: 05 Nov 23 - 12:09 PM A joke thread is not the place for airing out personal grievances, especially in such a lame, unfunny manner. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Mrrzy Date: 30 Oct 23 - 10:22 PM The person who told me this joke wsx horrified when I laughed... What did one tampon say to the other? ... ... ... Nothing. They were both stuck up bitches. |

The small man procedes to play the piano much to the amzement of the clientelle. Barman has to ask where the bloke got the diminutive musician from. Well, I aksed this genie for a 12" penis but he was very hard of hearing... |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Donuel Date: 05 Nov 23 - 10:58 AM I have my theories why Steve is such a crab and shellfish. Perhaps he blew a Seal but I'll leave his private life out of it. I know some Brits drink like a fish but it goes deeper than that. He has often fought me in text and hits me with a sucker punch so I catch him with a left hook. He eels over. It was a fluke but there he was Lying on the deck, flat as a mackerel. Kelpless. I could sea the anchor in his eyes. I won't give him a bouquet of flounders or a few minnows of praise because I can not fathom he will ever apollockjize. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Doug Chadwick Date: 31 Oct 23 - 06:27 AM Quasi-clever plays on words were the meat and drink of music hall stand-up comedian double acts. as in:- "Are you the front end of an ass?" "No!" "Are you the front end of an ass?" "No!" "Then you must be no end of an ass!" or "My dog has no nose." "How does he smell?" "Terrible!" or "My wife's gone to the West Indies." "Jamaica?" "No, she went of her own accord." They have a long and honourable role in the history of joke telling. DC |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Doug Chadwick Date: 31 Oct 23 - 10:49 AM ... tell me in all honesty whether you think that Mrrzy's "joke" was funny rather than misogynistic. No more misogynistic than the joke you posted at the top of the thread where a man committed a sexual assault while pretending to guess a woman's age. DC |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Doug Chadwick Date: 31 Oct 23 - 11:47 AM Well you'll have to apprise of what "top of the thread" means because I can't find one. From: Steve Shaw - PM Date: 23 Jan 23 - 05:35 PM |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Doug Chadwick Date: 31 Oct 23 - 12:49 PM Ye gods, Doug, unpo your face! Hey Steve, I have no problem with either yours or Mrrzy's joke. It was you who raised the question of misogyny. Pots and kettles. DC |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 27 Oct 23 - 12:14 PM A beautiful young woman comes across an injured man lying in a ditch. "Good heavens, what happened to you?" "I came off my motor bike. I'm a bit beaten up but I don't think I've broken anything..." "Well I happen to be a nurse. Here, get in my car and I'll take you to my place to clean you up." So off they went. After a couple of hours at her place, during which she cleaned up his wounds and, er, took his mind off things in other ways, he eventually said, "I think I'd better try to contact my wife now..." "Oh, you didn't tell me you had a wife! Where is she?" "Still in the ditch, probably..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Oct 23 - 05:49 AM Quasi-clever plays on words are not necessarily jokes. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Oct 23 - 09:43 AM You are not disagreeing with me, Doug, even though you try hard to at times. Read my post again and see if you can spot the word "necessarily" this time round. When you've done that, tell me in all honesty whether you think that Mrrzy's "joke" was funny rather than misogynistic. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Oct 23 - 11:13 AM Well you'll have to apprise of what "top of the thread" means because I can't find one. I can't think of anyone in my circle of friends who would consider the use of "bitches" in that joke to be appropriate, and we are a jolly lot. It's a derogatory way of referring to women, and the women implied in that joke seem to have done nothing to deserve it unless you think there's something wrong with tampon-wearing. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Oct 23 - 12:33 PM Ye gods, Doug, unpo your face! First, as with most jokes, the scene is totally unreal and ridiculous. Second, he "didn't sexually assault" her. She invited him! Priest was having a round of golf with his mate. At the first hole his mate took a swing and completely missed the ball. "Oh SHIT! Missed the bastard!" he shouted. "Dearie me, my son. Watch your tongue. The Lord above doesn't want to hear that kind of language!" Second hole, same thing happened. "SHIT! Missed the bastard again!" "I've warned you, my son. Any more of that language and God may strike you down!" Next hole, same thing. "SHIT! Missed the bastard AGAIN!!" Suddenly, the clouds parted, a thunderbolt ripped through the clouds and the priest dropped dead. Came a mighty voice from the heavens, "SHIT! Missed the bastard!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Oct 23 - 02:26 PM My joke didn't have any misogyny. As simple as that. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 02 Nov 23 - 12:24 PM That's similar to the one about the wicked queen in Snow White, the bit where she thinks she's seen Snow White off with the poisoned apple, so she asks her magic mirror: Mirror mirror on the wall Who is the fairest of them all? At last the magic mirror tells her what she wants to hear, but, unbeknown to her, a servant is listening through the keyhole. When the wicked queen has left the room, he sneaks up to the mirror and says: Mirror mirror on the door Make my penis touch the floor! And his legs dropped off. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 05 Nov 23 - 09:27 AM There were two fish in a tank. One said to the other, "OK, I'll drive, you shoot the guns..." (I really must scale back on the fish jokes...) |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 06 Nov 23 - 08:07 PM A cowboy is riding across the plains when he come across an Indian laying with his ear against the earth. He asks, “what are you up to?” The Indian replies, “Two horses pulling a wagon…a man, two women and a kid on board.” Impressed, the cowboy says, “That’s amazing, you can tell all that from listening to the vibrations?” The Indian replies, “No, they just ran over me.” (I did look up whether "Indian" is regarded as derogatory and couldn't find a settled answer. So I've risked it!) |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2023 From: Steve Shaw Date: 19 Nov 23 - 11:28 AM I'm sure that some of my/our jokes go back to at least the 1800s, Doug, though undoubtedly many have gone through the folk-joke process... The oldest known joke is a Sumerian one from 1900 BC. It's a fart joke and I don't get it: "Something which has never occurred since time immemorial ... A young woman did not fart in her husband's lap." ? |
