Subject: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Dec 23 - 12:16 PM As the hedge fund manager gets out of his brand-new Porsche, a truck goes racing by, taking off the door. “My Porsche! 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!) |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 31 Dec 23 - 09:24 PM A young girl brings her new boyfriend home to meet her parents. They’re appalled by his haircut, his tattoos, his piercings, his general scruffiness. The girl's mum says quietly to her daughter, “Darling, he doesn’t seem to be a very nice boy.” “Oh, for goodness sake, mum," says the daughter, "If he wasn’t nice, why would he be doing 500 hours of community service?” |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 01 Jan 24 - 08:40 AM That's disturbing, Don. Each evening bird-lover Tom stood in his backyard, hooting like an owl. 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." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Geoff Wallis Date: 01 Jan 24 - 09:56 AM It's always wise to check Snopes. Birdwatchers call each other As penance, here's some Ken Dodd gags. I just read a book about Stockholm Syndrome, it started off badly but by the end I really liked it. I used to think I was marvellous in bed until I discovered that all my girlfriends suffered from asthma. I have kleptomania. But when it gets bad, I take something for it. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 01 Jan 24 - 12:38 PM Heard Doddy saying this on the wireless when we were on holiday in Criccieth in 1965: "What a beautiful day! What a beautiful day for jumping naked into a supermarket trolley and shouting, 'How about THIS for a special offer!'" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 02 Jan 24 - 09:38 AM By coincidence, Biden and Trump die on the same day. They both see that the stairway to heaven has no handrail at the pearly gate. St. Peter tells them they are both welcomed by executive privilege. Biden starts climbing up the stairs on all fours. Trump asks Peter "Is there an escalator"? NO "How about an elevator"? NOO Trump calls heaven a shit hole, shuffles back to his limo, and takes the highway to hell. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 02 Jan 24 - 11:27 AM We understand it Don. It just isn't funny. I suspect that it could be a transatlantic thing. There are are some US comedy shows and stand ups that work on both sides of the pond but I do find a lot of US comedy about as funny as toothache. I think it is the same the other way too. How about some Christmas cracker jokes :-D Why was the snowman in veg patch? He was picking his nose What's green, covered in tinsel and goes ribbet? A mistle-toad What happened to the man that stole an advent calendar? He got 25 days |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 02 Jan 24 - 12:13 PM American and Australian humor must be far more hardcore than yours. I should assume you guys are delicate and fragile. How did a flower get elected? "It 'rose' to the occasion! What do you call a flower that makes electricity? A power plant! What do you call a clumsy flower? A Whoopsi-Daisy. What did the bee say to the flower? You're pollen my leg! Why did the chicken cross the toad? It was Good Friday. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 02 Jan 24 - 01:00 PM It's not a transatlantic thing, Dave. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 02 Jan 24 - 01:27 PM I'm glad you said that. Understanding a funny joke has nothing to do with not being fragile or delicate and there's no such thing as a hard-core joke. Donuel's jokes are not funny and they're not even jokes. They are simply attempts at polluting what's supposed to be a light-hearted thread with trolling. It's a worrying sign that there's something gone badly wrong in the upstairs department. What did the pirate say on his 80th birthday? "Aye, matey!" I'll get me coat... |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 03 Jan 24 - 07:18 AM A Pagan died on Christmas and went to Heaven. St. Peter met him at the gate. "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! |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 03 Jan 24 - 10:06 AM Last night my girlfriend was complaining that I never listen to her… or something like that. I got a new pair of gloves today, but they’re both ‘lefts,’ which on the one hand is great, but on the other, it’s just not right. At the moment I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. I simply can't put it down. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 04 Jan 24 - 12:22 PM Stop me if you've heard this one- Doctor: Mr. Jones, I'm afraid you only have only 6 weeks to live. Jones: Oh God what terrible news! Doctor: It could be worse. Jones: HOW, how in heaven's name could it be worse? Doctor: Well, it could have been me. Another oldie- Tom was at the hospital visiting with his best friend Larry who was dying. Tom asked, "If there is baseball in heaven will you come back and tell me?" Larry nodded yes just as he passed away. That night while Tom was sleeping, he heard Larry's voice in a dream, "Tom..." "Larry! What is it?!" asked Tom. "I have good news and bad news from heaven." "What's the good news?" "There is baseball in heaven after all, but the bad news is you're pitching on Tuesday." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 04 Jan 24 - 08:10 PM A blind man went into a bar with his guide dog. All of a sudden, to the horror of everyone in the bar, he grabbed the dog's tail with both hands and swung the dog round his head. "Oi, mate, what do you think you're doing!" shouted the barman. "Nothing really," said the bloke, "Just looking around..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 04 Jan 24 - 08:21 PM A bloke was at the pearly gates, hoping to get into heaven. St Peter sez to him, "Not sure about you. Have you ever done a really good deed with which you can impress me?" "Well, there was this vulnerable young woman who was being seriously harassed by three big bikers. I went up to the biggest one, kicked him in the nuts and told the other two that if they pestered the girl again they'd have me to answer to." "Wow, that's mighty impressive! So when did this happen?" "Two minutes ago." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 04 Jan 24 - 08:43 PM Two old blokes were having a natter. One sez, "You know, my biggest regret is that I never had a proper education, so I'm going to sign up at the local college." So off he goes, and the dean says to him that he can sign up for English, maths, history and logic. "Logic?" Sez he, "What's that??" "Well let me give you an example. Have you got a weed wand?" "Well yes..." "Well I conclude from that that you have a garden." "Well yes I do!" "And from that, I conclude that you have a house." "That's true!" "And from that I conclude that you have a family." "Wow, right again!" "So you have a wife..." "Absolutely - right again!" "So you must be heterosexual." "Gosh, right again!" He goes back to his friend and tells him that he's signed up for English, Maths, history and logic. "Logic?" Sez his friend, "What's that?" "Well, I'll give you an example, right? Have you got a weed wand?" "Er, no..." "Jaysus, you queer!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 04 Jan 24 - 08:58 PM Not a joke as such, but today at the Morrisons checkout (I was buying, er, several bottles of wine...), the lady doing the checkout told me she'd thought of doing dry January but had changed her mind. "Excellent," said I, "It's a very silly idea anyway!" She said she'd decided to do "dry Lent" instead. I had to inform her of that thing she hadn't thought about, that January has only 31 days whereas Lent has forty days and forty nights. She went all quiet on me. I'll be back tomorrow to see whether she's altered her thinking... :-) (I forgot to get mozzarella anyway!) |

Thing is, the only person he's ever shagged is our cleaning lady." "Don't worry, old chap, just bring him in and we'll sort it..." "Thing is, doc, I've been shagging her as well and now I've got symptoms too..." "Don't worry, both come in and we'll sort you out..." "But doc, I think my wife's also got it..." "Oh shit!" sez the doc, "That means we've all got it!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Steve Shaw Date: 06 Jan 24 - 06:35 AM The chief constable was interviewing three candidates for the job of detective. He called the first one in, showed him a photo and said, "This is a photo of a suspect. Look closely and tell me what you make of it." "Well, sir, the man has only the one eye." "You fool! It's a profile photo and you can't see his other eye! Get out!" He called in the next candidate, showed him the photo and asked him the same question. "Well, sir, he's got just the one ear..." "Idiot! There's no way you can tell that from his profile! Get out!" In came the third candidate and he was asked the same question. "Well, sir, this man wears contact lenses." The chief constable pored over the photo and he couldn't see how the chap could have made such an assertion, but he decided to check the suspect's records. He discovered that the suspect did indeed wear contact lenses. "That's quite remarkable," he said to the candidate, "Tell me, how did you work that one out?" "Well, sir, as he's got only one eye and one ear there's no way he could wear ordinary specs..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Bill D Date: 11 Jan 24 - 09:04 AM 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”. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Georgiansilver Date: 23 Jan 24 - 06:19 AM At the time of The Flood it was decided that the koi Carp deserved their own ark so Noah built one with a few levels allowing the Koi to swim freely up and down. It had to be towed behind the main ark on a very long rope. They needed the protection of their ark but also deserved some freedom so the koi would sometimes go off on a little adventure and when they came back they would tell Noah where they'd been and what they'd done. Noah looked forward to this and day after day there was a new story for him. This was probably the very first multi-storey carp ark. |

Big Earl is a-ridin' into town!" Panic engulfed the bar, and within thirty seconds the bar was emptied as everyone fled. All except for bartender, who was new around there. 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..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 24 Feb 24 - 04:59 AM Another from Steve :-D Bloke went into a bakers, and he said, "I'll have a couple of those rolls in the window there please." 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. "I just use these tongs... " |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 25 Feb 24 - 03:54 AM 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..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 25 Feb 24 - 07:19 AM A confederate stooge is a true failing for Dave who used to be his own man. His ad hominem claims are not even his own. Perhaps new pub pals would lift his spirits. The pandemic is over but a loneliness epidemic is still holding on. Find happier blokes. Tired jokes do not make a mirthful man. Remember, whether it’s “mate,” “buddy,” or just a good old fashioned “mister,” at the end of the day, jokes are all about friendly mirth. Unless he’s taken the last two slices of pizza... then all bets are off! |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 25 Feb 24 - 08:23 AM 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.’ |

"Sonia's here". "What! Sonia your first wife?" "Yes" he replies with dismay. She turns to look across the room. "She seems to be knocking back the gin!" "Yes" he says. "She started drinking after the divorce and she hasn't stopped since". "That's more than ten years" she says. "You wouldn't think anyone would celebrate that long!" DC |

The prosecutor read out the charge, that he'd assaulted his wife over her head with his guitar. The judge peered at the bloke over his specs and said to him, "First offender?" "No, your honour, first a Les Paul then a Fender..." I take back my earlier compliment! |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 26 Feb 24 - 06:36 AM I'm not sure if this is a joke but I've got a midnight blue Stratocaster that I've been upgrading the last couple of decades and have changed everything out but the body and the strap buttons. You might say it's transfendered. Reminds of that old carpenter's joke- This has been a great hammer, I've changed out the head twice, the handle 3 times and it's still going strong. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 26 Feb 24 - 09:28 AM An ancient couple had friends round for a cup of tea. The ladies were in the kitchen and the two chaps were having a natter. "We went to a really good restaurant last night," said the old boy. "Really?" said his friend. "We've been looking for good restaurants to go to round here. What was the name?" "Oh dear, I can't remember," said the old boy. "Let me think: what's that flower called, you know, the one that comes in different colours, it's got a nice scent, and I think it's got thorns up its stem...?" "Rose?" suggested his friend. "Ah, that's it!" He called into the kitchen, "Rose, what was the name of the restaurant we went to last night?" You will have to guess who that is from. Adds to the fun :-D |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 26 Feb 24 - 03:52 PM A business had a sign on the window saying “Help Wanted. Must be proficient typist, know how to use the internet, and be bilingual.” A dog walking by picks up the sign in its teeth, and approaches the boss, who assumes correctly that the dog wants to apply for the job. “Come on,” the man says, “Dogs can’t type.” So the dog sits down at the keyboard and types this message: “Dogs can type just fine.” “How about computers?” the boss asks. So the dog does a Google search and finds pages of information about the capabilities of canines. “But the sign also says you would need to be bilingual,” the boss adds. And the dog replies, “Meow.” |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 28 Feb 24 - 04:52 PM 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..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 01 Mar 24 - 08:00 AM When I was a kid there was a TV cartoon called Care Bears. “Them little teddy bears would lock arms and stare at a problem, and — I’m not even bullshitting — actual love would shoot out of their chests, and would dispel anything that was fucked up. 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.” |

Bloke walked into a pub and was amazed to see some men - and one dog - sitting at a table playing poker. Sez he to the barman, "That's one hell of a clever dog you've got there, playing poker?" "Hmm, he's not as clever as you think," replied the barman. "Every time he gets a good hand he wags his tail..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 02 Mar 24 - 06:08 PM Bloke got a job as a bus driver, to start on Monday morning at 9 prompt. 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!" |

She invites him back to her place but warns him that they’d have to be really quiet because Mum and Dad would be sleeping in the next room. They sneak up to her room and start to get undressed. Before they get completely naked though, the bloke announces that he needs the toilet. “You can’t use the toilet up here,” said the girl, “The flush will wake my parents. You'll have to go downstairs and use the kitchen sink.” So he sneaks downstairs and comes back 5 minutes later, “Have you got any toilet paper?” |

A woman had just got out of the shower and her husband had just got in it when the doorbell rang. She hurriedly wrapped the bath towel round and went down to answer the door. It was Bob, their next-door neighbour. "Cor, look at you!" said Bob. "Fifty quid if you drop that towel!" She obliged, and Bob handed over the fifty quid. "Who was that at the door?" her husband called down. "Oh, only Bob," she replied. "Ah. Did he say anything about the fifty quid he owes me?" |

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!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: The Sandman Date: 19 Mar 24 - 03:46 AM Everything's big in Texas joke One of my personal favorites. 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. He walks in, falls into the pool and starts screaming, "Don't flush! Don't flush!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: The Sandman Date: 19 Mar 24 - 04:24 AM 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” |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: The Sandman Date: 20 Mar 24 - 04:01 AM A small town had three churches: Presbyterian, Methodist, and Catholic. All three had a serious problem with squirrels in the church building and each, in its own fashion, had a meeting to deal with the problem. The Presbyterians decided that it was predestined that squirrels be in the church and that they would just have to live with them. 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. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 21 Mar 24 - 03:52 PM When Einstein died he went to heaven beyond any spacetime dimension. 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. Al whispered 'Heaven equals a narcissist God times hell squared' |

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. So much so that many songs alluded to the former Llamarama with the lamb bamboo... |

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. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Neil D Date: 28 Mar 24 - 09:10 PM 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. |

"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.

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 06 Apr 24 - 06:47 AM One from Steve :-) An old boy and his missus had lived a very long and healthy life, thanks to her obsession with a carefully balanced diet, plenty of exercise and moderation in all things. But at the age of 95 they died in an air crash and were met at the pearly gates by St Peter. "Well, you've lived perfect lives and you can come straight in. 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!" "What, no restrictions at all?" asked the old boy. "None whatsoever! The perfect life for all eternity!" The old boy turned to his missus and said angrily, "We could have been here thirty years ago, Doris. You and your bloody Bran Flakes..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 07 Apr 24 - 06:59 AM Another Steve one :-) Bloke went to confession and told the priest that he'd shagged Fanny Green twice in a week. "Three Hail Marys, my son, and behave from now on." A while later another bloke confessed to the priest that he'd shagged Fanny Green four times in a week. "Bejaysus, son, ten Hail Marys and ten Glory Bes for you, and from now on keep your trousers up." That Sunday at the start of Mass, a tall, elegant woman with a very short skirt and emerald green high heels sat on the front pew with her legs slightly apart. The priest whispered to the altar boy, "Is that Fanny Green?" "No, Father, it's just the reflection from her shoes..." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 10 Apr 24 - 07:15 AM ...and another :-D An old lady offers the bus driver a handful peanuts. He thanks her and happily munches away. After a few minutes she gives him another handful of peanuts. This happens several times. Eventually, the driver asks her why she doesn't eat them herself. "Well," she says, "I can't chew. Look, I have no teeth..." "Then why do you buy them?" asks the driver. "Oh, I just love sucking the chocolate off the outsides." |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 11 Apr 24 - 11:33 AM Bit of my own. Well, Stephen Fry really but I repeated it :-) I was taking a stroll through the meadows when I stopped and bent down to inspect a flower "What are you doing?" asked my friend "Picking a buttercup" I replied "Who on earth would leave a buttock lying in a meadow..?" Now back to the main show... A bloke is trying to chat up a lovely young woman he's just met in a bar. "Have you ever seen a penis?" he asked her, ever so subtly. "A penis? What word is that?? Never heard of it!" Well come back to my place and I'll show you mine!" So they go back to his place and he, er, whips out his willy. "So what do you think?" "Ah, so that's a penis then!" she replied. "It's just like a dick, but a lot smaller!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 12 Apr 24 - 04:07 AM I think Steve has been inspired by the stolen Jesus thread :-) Jesus, Moses, and an old man were playing golf. Jesus teed off and hit his ball which went right into the pond. Disgusted, he walked on the water, reached down, grabbed his ball, and went to the next hole. 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. Now can we please stop messing around and just play golf?" |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 13 Apr 24 - 06:26 AM Donald Trump and his driver were cruising along a country road one evening when a pig ran in front of the car. The pig was killed. The President told his driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what happened. About an hour later the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in total disarray. He was holding a bottle of wine in one hand, a cigar in the other and smiling happily. “What happened?” asked the President. “Well,” the driver replied, “the farmer gave me the wine, his wife gave me the cigar, and their beautiful daughter made mad passionate love to me.” “My God, what did you tell them?” asked the President. The driver replied: “I just said I was Donald Trump’s driver, and I just killed the pig.” another Steve |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 14 Apr 24 - 02:04 PM cut and pasted... The Trump trial will be a first but it is the OPPOSITE in every way to the OJ Simpson trial. The Trump trial will not be televised. OJ was televised and watched by millions. OJ was an athlete, Trump needs a golf cart. The Trump motorcade is preceded by police vehicles. OJ's Bronco was followed by police vehicles. OJ had the best lawyers in the country. Trump has legal mouthpieces. The Trump trial involves his dick The OJ trial involved a knife. Trump is MAGA white racist. OJ was so black they redecorated his house 'white' for the trial. For OJ if it didn't fit you must acquit. For Trump one size fits all. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Dave the Gnome Date: 14 Apr 24 - 02:06 PM Is that supposed to be a joke?

"Thanks for picking me up" he said. "Not many people want to give rides theses days. It's understandable, I suppose. I mean, after all, how do you know I'm not a serial killer?" The driver looked at him and replied "What are the chances of two strangers being the same car and both of them being serial killers?" DC |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 15 Apr 24 - 09:58 AM Rape jokes? I suppose all is fair in humor since it is the context and not the word's evil meaning. There are odd eggs who think rape is worse than murder. I know people who have recovered from rape, but murder? There is a rumor that only one ancient Jew managed to recover from murder. Besides if you try to switch rape and murder/kill it doesn't work. For example, the song Raping me Softly is awkward. Or the movies Rape Bill one and two, or the book To Rape a Mockingbird. |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 18 Apr 24 - 11:21 AM That's great, Don but just for a change of pace how about sharing a joke. A (Grateful) deadhead was walking down the street one day when a pixie pounced on him. "Today is your lucky day!" said the pixie. "I'm gonna give you two wishes. What will the first one be?" The hippie thinks for a moment and then says, "I want a never-ending joint." So the pixie snaps his fingers and there is this king-sized joint. The hippie sparks it up and starts puffing. After five hits the joint is still the same length. Next the pixie says, "...And number two?" The hippie replies, "This is so cool man! Gimme another one!" |

You've been posting for an abusive former member. Wether that is counter to the M.C. rules I don't know. I just find it creepy, as I said earlier. I hope that's clear enough and that we can get back to the jokes and whatever it is that Don does (well, maybe not that last part). |

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: Donuel Date: 20 Apr 24 - 04:06 PM Talk about verse? Yes stories are best compared to comedians who recite 20 jokes and their set is done. 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? |

There are a few US comedies and comedians that I find funny but, generally, I struggle with some of the US humour too. I think it may be a cultural thing.

Subject: RE: BS: Joke thread for 2024 From: gillymor Date: 22 Apr 24 - 01:04 PM Yeah, I was thinking Dave Allen's routine had a similar structure to bits that Newhart, Sid Caesar, Jackie Mason and the like were doing back in the 50's and early 60's. I imagine that style originated in Vaudeville. I thought that bit was hilarious, DA had a show that used to appear on my local PBS affiliate back in the 80's, also very funny. |
