What’s a tuba plus a tuba?

A four-ba

One of my favorites, but it requires a captive (like a knock-knock joke) and an odd outlook on life.

You: Wanna hear a joke?
Victim: Ok, sure.
You: Ok, ask me if I’m a truck.
(It may be necessary to encourage them here with a confidence that promises great rewards. “Go ahead, ask me if I’m a truck.” )
Victim: Ok… Are you a truck?
You: :dubious: No. (You MUST deadpan this and stare them STRAIGHT in the eye or it won’t work.)

Then one of two things happens:

  1. Victim: crumbles in the face of your deadpan delivery and giggles
  2. Victim: Weirdo.

Sometimes, someone will giggle with me at the absurdity, and then I know I’ve made a friend.

It’s funny in person, really.

Climb the tree and act like a nut.

.

.
“Oh the huge manatee!!”
When I told this to my family, the wife gave me a big :dubious:, but my two daughters (K and 2nd grade) laughed like maniacs. Why? Never mind that it makes light of one of the worst aviation disasters ever, and that most kids wouldn’t even know the Hindenberg reference to begin with. They laugh because the words “dugong” and “manatee” are frickin’ hilarious.

How do you keep a werewolf from going crazy on Halloween night?

An elephant.

Well, how about this:

Uh, I don’t know.

Knock knock?

Cargo
Cargo, who?
Car go ‘beep beep,’ run over Ether bunny.
