Mundane changes to the punchlines of old jokes

A man goes to the doctor and says “Doctor, it hurts when I do this.”

The doctor does a quick examination and says “I believe you have tendonitis. If rest and non-prescription antiinflamatory drugs aren’t helping, I can inject cortisone into the afflicted area which will be painful at first but probably provide relief in a couple of days.”

A man and his dog walk into a talent agents office.

“All right, lets make this quick I have things to do, whats your talent?” asks the agent.

The man says, “It’s not me sir, its my dog – he talks!”

“Yeah, right,” says the agent. “I don’t have time for this, now get out of here before I throw you out.”

“No, wait,” says the man. “I’ll prove it.” He turns to the dog and asks, “What do you normally find on top of a house?”

“Roof!” says the dog, wagging his tail.

“Listen, pal…” says the agent.

“Wait,” says the man, “I’ll ask another question.” He turns to the dog again and asks, “How does sandpaper feel?”

“Rough!” exclaims the dog.

“Quit wasting my time and get out of here,” says the agent.

“One more chance,” pleads the man. Turning to the dog again, he asks, “Who, in your opinion, was the greatest baseball player that ever lived?”

“Ruth!” barked the dog.

“Okay, that’s it!” says the agent, and forces the man and the dog out the door.

The dog looks up at the man and says “Ruff.”

Three guys are stuck on a deserted island, when one of them finds a lamp on the beach. He picks it up and gives it a little rub and a genie pops out. The genie looks at the three guys and says: “I normally give three wishes, but since there are three of you, I will grant each of you one wish.”

Well, the first guy is sick and tired of being on the island, so he wishes to go back home. POOF!!! He disappears. The second one said he, too, is tired of the island, and wishes to go home. POOF!!! He too disappears. The genie then turns to the last guy and asks him what his wish is.

“Gee,” he says, “I’m awfully lonely here by myself. I also wish that I was back home now as well.”

What is black and white and red all over?

I’m sorry, are you asking “red” as in the color, or “read” as in the past tense of “to read?” This is one of those cases where a homophone could lead to a misunderstanding of the meaning of the question, and I want to make sure I understand your intent correctly.

Why did Silly Billy tiptoe past the medicine cabinet?

Unfortunately, our dear little William is of rather markedly diminished mental capacity. From what I could gather from his disjointed and quite hard to understand explanation, he apparently had heard the term “sleeping pills,” and was under the charming impression that it meant “pills that are asleep” instead of referring to the commonly understood sleep aid, and therefore was making every effort not to disturb their slumber. Just last week, he started to giggle and turned red when someone asked if he had seen the salad dressing. Yes, these frequent little misunderstandings are very cute and even mildly humorous now while he is only seven years old, but his mother and I are actually quite apprehensive of what will become of him when he gets older. There are so few programs available, he most likely will have to live with us for the rest of his life. And what will happen to him when his mother and I are no longer able to take care of him, or, god forbid, pass on? Sometimes it is hard to sleep at night, I worry about the future so. That’s why we have the sleeping pills in the cabinet in the first place…some days, i just cannot get to sleep without them. My wife is worried that I may become dependent on them, but my doctor and I have discussed that issue and my occasional usage of those pills, and he feels that I do not need to be too concerned about addiction at this point.

Q. What do you call a woman with only one leg?
A. Generally, you would use her first name, if you have met in the past. If not, it would probably be more appropriate to refer to her more formally as “Ms. {last name}” or if she is married “Mrs. {last name}”.

Yo Momma’s so nice, she waves every time I go by your house and last time we were at your house she brought out lemonade for everyone while we were playing.

That’s what she said (in a completely chaste, platonic and appropriate way when she herself was in a stunningly similar almost deja-vu-like situation to that which we’re currently experiencing now)

Actually…

:smiley:
