Rhubarb Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I honestly think it would be a good idea (and maybe lighetn things up) if we had a thread for jokes (within the usual bounds of decency). Anyone else interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhubarb Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 You're the admin and you can set one up - I can't. Usual rules - no 'offensive' jokes, no flaming, no politics (insulting politicians isn't the same thing though), etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Anyone can start such a thread, in fact you just did. I'll move it to the lounge and you can entertain us with funny stuff, and hopefully others will join in. I'll do my part by keeping it family friendly.

cassie Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 During lunch at work last week, I ate 3 plates of beans (which I know I shouldn't). When I got home, my wife seemed excited to see me and exclaimed delightedly: "Darling I have a surprise for dinner tonight." She then blindfolded me and led me to my chair at the dinner table. I took a seat and just as she was about to remove my blindfold, the telephone rang. She made me promise not to touch the blindfold until she returned and went to answer the call. The beans I had consumed were still affecting me and the pressure was becoming unbearable, so while my wife was out of the room I seized the opportunity, shifted my weight to one leg and let one go. It was not only loud, but it smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk in front of a garbage dump! I took my napkin from my lap and fanned the air around me vigorously. Then, shifting to the other leg, I ripped off three more. The stink was worse than cooked cabbage. Keeping my ears carefully tuned to the conversation in the other room, I went on releasing atomic bombs like this for another few minutes. The pleasure was indescribable! Eventually the telephone farewells signalled the end of my freedom, so I quickly fanned the air a few more times with my napkin, placed it on my lap and folded my hands back on it feeling very relieved and pleased with myself. My face must have been the picture of innocence, when my wife returned, apologizing for taking so long. She asked me if I had peeked through the blindfold, and I assured her I had not. At this point, she removed the blindfold. Twelve dinner guests (including my mother in-law) seated around the table, with their hands to their noses, chorused: "Happy Birthday!!"

cassie Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 A man to a psychiatrist: “How do you select who should be admitted to your facility?” The psychiatrist replies: “We fill a bathtub with water and give the person a spoon, a cup and a bucket. Then we ask that person to empty the bathtub.” The man smiles: “Ah, I understand, if you are sane you would take the bucket.” The Psychiatrist replies: “No, a sane guy pulls the plug. Do you want a room with or without a balcony?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhubarb Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 The Doctor called Mrs. Cohen saying, "Mrs. Cohen, your check came back." Mrs. Cohen answered, "So did my arthritis!" A car hit an elderly Jewish man. The paramedic says, "Are you comfortable?" The man says, "I make a good living." I just got back from a pleasure trip. I took my mother-in-law to the airport. I've been in love with the same woman for 49 years. If my wife ever finds out, she'll kill me! What are three words a woman never wants to hear when she's making love? "Honey, I'm home!" We always hold hands. If I let go, she shops. My wife and I went back to the hotel where we spent our wedding night, only this time I stayed in the bathroom and cried. My wife and I went to a hotel where we got a waterbed. My wife called it the Dead Sea . She was at the beauty shop for two hours. That was only for the estimate. She got a mud pack and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off. Doctor: "You'll live to be 60!" Patient: "I AM 60!" Doctor: "See! What did I tell you?" A doctor held a stethoscope up to a man's chest. The man asks, "Doc, how do I stand?" The doctor says, "That's what puzzles me!" Patient: "I have a ringing in my ears." Doctor: "Don't answer!" A drunk was in front of a judge. The judge says, "You've been brought here for drinking." The drunk says "Okay, let's get started." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhubarb Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 One of my ancestors was taking part in a public function when part of the platform collapsed. He would have broken both of his legs if the rope round his neck hadn't stopped the fall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhubarb Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 I'm curious about some Americanisms: Why is it Ark-en-saw but kanz-ass? Why is it NYPD but FDNY? Lemonade is made from lemons - so gatorade is made from??? (I'm not sure if I want to go there) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
