This one is from Alan "Mitsubishi" Kelly, a boy who was in my class in secondary school: - Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get away from the terrible joke! He found this the funniest thing in the world, and would repeat it many times if we were unlucky enough to sit next to him during lunch. Later he sat on a drawing pin that someone deliberately left on his seat, and went into hysterics believing that he had contracted AIDS. But that's not really important. Also, going back to the "Jamaica" joke at the top of this thread, there was a great variation on this in an episode of Dangermouse. Dangermouse and Penfold are travelling through Europe on the Orient Express: Dangermouse: Genoa, Penfold.
Penfold: No, chief, she went of her own accord.
Dangermouse: (tuts) No, Penfold, that's *Jamaica*.

What happened to my careful formatting? Mr Greenspun, I'm looking at YOU.

What's black and white and red all over? Well, simply, it's an impossibility. If one can see black and white, then it isn't red all over; if it is red all over, then one wouldn't be able to see black and white; at best, depending on the hue of the red, one might be able to discern darker and lighter shades beneath.

Mutilated Zebra my arse.

My Mother in Law is so fat that we're actually desperately worried about her health. She finds even basic tasks incredibly difficult due to the stress placed upon her respiratory system. Yesterday she collapsed but due to the many layers of adipose tissue the paramedics were unable to manually stimulate her lungs. She may die.

A guy was driving through the countryside one evening and his car stalled. The only building around for miles was a monastery, so he went inside and asked the head monk if he could stay the night. They gave him a room and later that night he was awakened by a strange noise. The next morning he asked the head monk what it was, and the reply was, "I can't tell you, you're not a monk." So he shrugged and asked for a nickel to call a tow truck.
