I'd just like to point out that "Why did the chicken cross the road" IS one of these jokes. The whole point is that you expect a "joke" punchline when it really just has a common-sense answer - "to get to the other side."

Why are there no good jokes about Jonestown?

It's really not appropriate to joke about it. It was a terrible tragedy. Hundreds of people died, many of them children.

(maybe that one's been done already - haven't read the whole thread).

Q: How many lesbians does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: It would depend on a number of variables: the height of the light socket, the stability of any ladders used, the procurement of any necessary permits, compliance with union regulations and whether one counts the labor involved in the production of the bulb and light fixture. The gender and sexuality of the participants, however, are irrelevant.

Q: How many Germans does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: Probably only one. Germany has a well-deserved reputation for efficiency as a nation.

How about some funny alternate endings to classic jokes. Everyone knows that the popular Pirate movie last year was actually rated PG-13.

Q: Did you hear about the drummer who locked his keys in his car?
A: Fortunately, he was living in his van at the time.

Okay, that's not very funny, but you see where I'm going with this.

A woman goes to the grocery store, picks up some items, and goes to the register to make her purchases. She buys one TV dinner, one can of soda, one candy bar, and a pint of ice cream. As the cashier scans the groceries, he remarks "you must be single!". The woman asks him how he knew. The cashier replies, "well, you are clearly only purchasing groceries for one individual; I assume that if you were in a relationship you would have adjusted your grocery shopping to include purchasing items for your partner".

David Beckham is rummaging through his Xmas presents when he finds a curiously-shaped flask. He goes to Posh and asks her "What's this?" She says, "It's a Thermos flask, I got it for you to take to training. It keeps cold things cold and hot things hot."

David agrees that this would be a very useful addition to his kit, and duly takes it to training the next day. "What's that, David?" asks his coach. "You've never brought one of those in before."

"It's a Thermos flask, boss", he replies. "It keeps cold things cold and hot things hot."

"So what have you got in there?"

"Oh, some coffee."

A man encounters a pirate, from whose open fly a steering wheel is protruding. "Excuse me," the man says, "you've a steering wheel protruding from your open fly." The pirate looks down and exclaims in surprise, "So I have! How curious!" Each goes on his own way.

How do you make a dead baby float?

Well, there would be a number of ways to lend it buoyancy, but that question is cruel and inappropriate at best.

Why did Bill Clinton give up playing the saxophone?

He still does it as an occasional pastime, but lately he has been dedicating great amounts of his time to the presidential campaign of his wife, Hilary, which is now in the starting stages of primary elections and caucuses. Since playing the saxophone on a late night talk show would not lend his wife the same cachet as it did in 1991 when he played it on the Arsenio Hall show to boost his public image before the elections, he has not played it in quite some time, though it waits for him in its case with a fresh set of reeds.

(Original answer: 'he was playing the whore-monica')

It's Saturday night and Superman is especially ready to party after a hard week of saving the world. So he throws on his cape and heads off to a party. Along the way, he passes Wonder Woman's penthouse suite. To his surprise, he sees through her open window that she is still at home, naked in her bed, lying on her back. Superman thinks to himself, "I'm faster than a speeding bullet. I can fly in there, have sex with her and be gone before she knows it." So in an instant, Superman flies in, does the deed, and flies back out. At this point, Wonder Woman sits up and says, "Did you hear something?" "Yes," replies the Invisible Man, "there is something seriously wrong with that Superman".

A priest, a rabbi, and a monk are sitting in a bar. This is strange as none of them are allowed to drink alcohol.

There where three men driving down a road, all of them were tired and each of their destinations were still miles away. So all of them stop at a farmer's house and ask if they could spend the night. The farmer had a very beautfiul daughter who was still a virgin, and the farmer wanted to keep it that way. Because he was afraid that the three men would pop his daughter, he stuck razor blades up her vagina.

So the next morning, he would find out who tried to screw his virgin daughter. So at breakfast the next morning, he asked all the guys to drop their pants. The first man drops his pants and his penis falls off. The second man does the same and his penis falls off.

The third man drops his pants and his penis doesn't fall off. The farmer doesn't have to ask why though because he is bleeding profusely from the mouth.

How do you get a one-armed man out of a tree?
Call the fire department and have them climb up a ladder and bring him down from there. Then probably ask how and why he was in a tree to begin with, what with the one arm and all.

A man went into a pub with a box under his arm. He approached the bar and said to the landlord "I'm sorry, mate, I haven't got any money on me, but I've got something amazing in this box. If I show it to you, will you give me a pint?". "Well, it better be really amazing," the landlord replies. The bloke opens up the box to reveal a tiny man, exactly one foot high, sat playing some highly intricate music on a miniature grand piano. "That's fucking incredible," says the landlord, "let me buy you a drink."

So he gives him a pint and they get talking. The landlord asks him how he came by this miniature pianist and the man tells him that a genie granted his wish. He produces an old lamp from his pocket and says "rub this and whisper your wish into the lamp and you'll get what you desire, too." So the landlord takes the lamp, rubs it, whispers inside and suddenly the pub is filled with a million ducks. "Brilliant," says the landlord, "that's exactly what I wanted." "Yep, me too," replies the man, "I'm certainly delighted to have this one-foot-tall piano player."

Autumn Almanac, Friday, 11 January 2008 00:22 (sixteen years ago) link

So there's this penguin driving through Death Valley and it's a really hot day - and that's bad news for a penguin. So, the penguin is driving and saying "sheesh" a lot and wiping his brow with his flipper when the car starts acting up! Bumpity bumpity bump... "Oh great," thinks the penguin.

To his relief, there is a service station not too far ahead. He drives in, parks his car, hops out, and waddles over to the mechanic. "Can you have a look at my car, mac?" asks the penguin. "It's making a funny noise." "Sure," says the mechanic. "Sheesh," thinks the penguin. "It's so hot! I think I'll go inside to keep cool for a while."

So he waddles over and goes inside. He mooches around, flicking through magazines, killing time. He decides he'll buy an ice cream to help him cool down. Then he goes back outside to assess the car. "Sheesh," he says as he waddles back over the tarmac. "It's really hot." He's making a real mess of the ice cream, on account of it being so hot and him being a penguin and only being able to hold it with his flipper. He spills more of it on himself than he gets inside his mouth.

He makes his way back to the car and comes up to the mechanic who's leaning over the engine and frowning. The mechanic looks up at him and says, "Hmm, it looks like your catalytic converter has failed." "Aw geez," says the penguin, "I just had the damn thing replaced about a year ago."
