Jokes that take time to sink in

BANG!

I just shot your stag with a cane. Does that help?

Not even slightly. Is that a pegleg reference?

I’m sorry, but you have to be a bit more than obvious.

I’m with Cochrane and Shodan, I don’t get it either.
One more, this from Robin Williams as an example of a joke that could be told by Steven Hawking at MIT:

“Rene Decartes walks into a bar. The Bartender asks him “do you want a drink.” he says “I think not” and disappears…”

It’s been 11 years and I finally got this one.

Look at a picture of the 5 of Spades and imagine the naked lady has black hair.

When I was eight, it took me a full year (since my parents never would explain it), to figure out what was so funny about their friend Pierre, the dehydrated Frenchman.

Here’s mine:[spoiler]One of the stories about the origin of the name barbiturates is that barbituric acids were synthesized from the urine of a Munich waitress named Barbara. That’s not the most likely of the possible origins, but it was synthesized from urine.

The other three jokes are:

Tomatoes are a natural source of glutamates. Not adding MSG to ketchup is like not adding sugar to an orange.

Matoke are green bananas, rich in 5-HTP, which is bad for the heart because it raises serotonin levels. People with major depression are already on SSRIs, so feeding them matoke is a good way to make that metaphoric heartbreak into an actually, physically broken heart.

Fruit juice is sweet because of fructose. This is essentially the same joke as the first one.[/spoiler]

OK, stop teasing us. Just spoiler the damn thing. :rolleyes:

A piece of string walks into a bar. The bartender yells at him to get out since they don’t serve string there. He walks out and asks a passing stranger to tie him up and mess up his ends a little. He goes back in and the bartender says, “Aren’t you that piece of string I threw out a minute ago?”. The string replied, “No, I’m afraid not.”

This might be slightly politically incorrect, but WTH:

Hear about the inmate at the insane asylum who got out of his cell, sexually assaulted a nurse, and escaped?

The headline the next day read NUT SCREWS AND BOLTS

What’s the difference between the Panama Canal and a blonde?

The Panama Canal’s a busy ditch.

Speaking of mental midgets and dubious intellect, it’s says, not “say’s.”

Say’s who? :rolleyes:

Stupid thread. BE MORE FUNNY!

Says the stableboy.

BTW, you told your joke wrong.

Still no idea?

Did you hear about the mathematician who hated negative numbers so much he’d stop at nothing to avoid them?

In Soviet Russia, you sink into aristocrats!

I heard it was the staff of the laundry he attacked: NUT SCREWS WASHERS AND BOLTS.

During Spring Break on the beach in Florida I walked past a girl in a wheelchair, sobbing. I asked her what was wrong, and she said, “My girlfriends talked me into coming with them on Spring Break and that it’ll be a wild party. Well, I’ve been here three days and I’ve never been fucked.” I told her I’d be willing to help her, and she readily agreed. So I took her wheelchair and pushed her into the ocean, up to her chin, then I turned around and walked back to the beach. She yells out, “What’s up with this?” I said, “Now you’re fucked!”

What’s the difference between snowmen and snowwomen?

snowballs
