Tell Me A Joke

A nun is fishing in a stream when suddenly she catches a large and strange looking fish. A nearby fisherman sees this and calls out to the nun, “That’s the biggest Goddam Fish I’ve ever seen.” The shocked nun proceeds to lecture the fisherman on his foul language. The fisherman laughs and tells the nun that “Goddam Fish” is the proper biological name for that species. The nun apologizes and takes the fish back to the parish chapel. She sees the Mother Superior and shows the fish to her with pride, “Mother Superior, look at this Goddam Fish that I caught!!” After the Mother Superior berates the nun for using the Lord’s name in vain, she hears the explanation from the nun. The Mother Superior says “Well, if that’s the name, so be it, I’ll clean it for our dinner.” As she heads to the kitchen she runs into the Monsignor. When the Monsignor asks what’s for dinner, the Mother Superior replies “We’re having this Goddam Fish for dinner.” The Monsignor cries out, “Mother Superior, a woman of the cloth like you using such language.” The Mother Superior calmly explains the fish’s name to the Monsignor whereupon the Monsignor says, “Well, after you clean it, give it to me so I can cook it up.”

Showing up for dinner is a young priest coming to his first parish. Upon tasting the fish, he said “This is the tastiest fish I have ever eaten!!” The nun beams with pride and says “Well, I caught that Goddam Fish.” The Mother Superior adds, “And I cleaned and prepared that Goddam Fish.” The Monsignor then says “I cooked that Goddam Fish in my own special recipe.”

The young priest laughs, slams his fist on the table and says, “Man, I like this fuckin’ place already!!!”

Canthearya’s “Disgusting Question” post reminded me of this old chestnut…

There’s a gyppo logging outfit in the great north woods, such a small concern that they can’t afford a full time cook, so they take turns. Problem is, all of them hate to cook, and are truly bad at it to boot. they decide that one guy will cook until someone complains about the food, then the complainer has to take over 'til the next complaint. One fella’s been stuck with cooking so long, and is so tired of it, that one day he finds a nice fresh moose-muffin in the woods and takes it back to camp and bakes it in a pie shell. Dessert gets served, and one old logger takes a bite of pie and splutters, “Why, that’s MOOSE TURD PIE!..Good, though.”
–Alan Q

A drunk is pounding on the bar, saying “Gimme a damn drink!”
The bartender says “Sir, you’ve had enough already, you’re going to have to leave.”
The drunk grumbles, but staggers out the front door. A few minutes later, he comes in the side door, shouting “Gimme a goddamned drink!” The bartender says “Look mister, you’re already drunk and I’m not gonna serve you. Get out.” The drunk grumbles but staggers out the side door. A few minutes later he comes in the back door, shouting “Gimme a goddamned drink!” The bartender says “Okay, buddy, I’ve had enough. Get the hell out or I’m calling the cops.” The drunk squints at him, astonished, saying “How many fuckin’ bars do you work in, anyway?”

What did the Leper say to the prostitute?

Keep the tip.

From my Joke of the Day archives:

We recently moved to a new city and went to our first football game. We arrived early and found our seats.

Not long afterward, a neurotic young fellow came in and sat just in front of us.

A short time later, we heard from far behind us someone yell “Hey Fred!”

The nervous young man jumped up and scanned the crowd. Apparently seeing no one he knew, he sat back down.

A few moments later, we heard someone behind us yell “Hey Fred!” Again the young man jumped up and scanned the crod. Still seeing no one he knew, he uneasily sat back down.

After several rounds of this, the man began mumbling to himself. After each additional time, the mumbling became more frantic.

Finally, hearing again the call of “Hey Fred!” the man leapt to his feet and screamed to the crowd:

“DARNIT, MY NAME’S NOT FRED!!!”


Another silly bit from the archives:

THINGS GUYS LEARNED FROM ACTION MOVIES

No matter what my problem is, it's the fault of someone other than myself, and the appropriate response is to find that person and kill him with my bare hands.

If I rudely argue with my boss in front of my co-workers, not only won't he fire me, but he will gain a profound respect for me.

There are two kinds of women in the world: The type that want to go to bed with you, and the type that want to kill you. Both types are physically attractive and under 25 years old.

If I have a prolonged fist-fight with another guy and neither of us dies, we will become best friends.

My arch-enemy will bean and uncanny resemblance in age and bearing to my father, and he will make it clear that he has gained a deep respect for me before I kill him with my bare hands.

When I shoot people, they will die quickly and cleanly, and I will never be arrested or troubled by their widowed wife and children. When people shoot me, however, I will at most receive a flesh wound, which will be tended to by a beautiful woman.

If an aged scientist is involved in any way, he will have a beautiful daughter who will gaze at me adoringly.

If I have a kid partner, he will be tightly-muscled, clean-cut, and gaze at me adoringly.

If I'm asked to compete against a world champion at any sport or game of any type, I will win. This will infuriate my opponent, who will then try to kill me.

If I am given a surprise attack, I will only be attacked by one or maybe two people at a time, and I will find that I am well-skilled in Karate and Ju-jitsu, and if all else fails, I will always have one last firearm hidden somewhere on my body.

Beautiful women will frequently furrow their brows with concern and ask, "When's the last time you got any sleep?" They will never ask when I last bathed or used the toilet, although I apparently never need to do those things either.

One last thing:

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around to hear it, do the other trees make fun of it?

A shy gentleman was getting ready to board his flight when he heard that the Pope was to be on the same flight. “wow, that’s great. I’ve always wanted to meet the Pope, maybe I’ll get a chance,” he thought.

Imagine his surprise when the Pope actually sat next to him and immediately pulled out a crossword puzzle and began working on it.

“This is great,” the shy man thought. “I’m pretty good at crossword puzzles. Maybe the Pope will ask me for help.” But being the shy man he was the gentle man did not initiate any conversation.

Suddenly the Pope asked “What is a four letter word for woman ending in u-n-t?”

The gentleman was flabberghasted. The Pope couldn’t mean the first thing that popped into his mind, not the Pope. So after thinking a few minutes the gentleman had it.

“I believe your looking for ‘Aunt,’ your eminence” the man said, happy he could help out.

“Ah, of course. Do you have an eraser?”


A group of cowboys were sitting around the camp fire fixing dinner when a big, ugly stranger came riding into thier camp. the stranger was mounted on a mountain lion and had a rattle snake as a lariat.

The new cowboy, got off his lion, kicked it and told it to lie down. He then coiled up the rattler and threw it to the ground. The other cowboys just stared in disbelief as the big man stuck his bare hand into the boiling pot of beans, pulled out a handful and ate them. Then he picked up the coffee pot and drank straight from the spout.

Whiping off his mouth the big stranger said “Thanks for the grub, but I can’t stay. There’s a real mean son-of-a-bitch chasing me.”

A kid, supposed to be doing his homework, is reciting, “One plus one, the son of a bitch is two; one plus two, the son of a bitch is three; two plus two, the son of a bitch is four…” the kid’s mother hears this and angrily demands to know where he heard it. He says, “The teacher told us.”
The next day the mother meets the teacher and says, “Why are you teaching my child to use profanity?” The teacher doesn’t understand, so the mother says, “Yesterday he was saying, ‘One plus one, the son of a bitch is two. One plus two…’ the teacher pauses for a minute, then says, understanding what happened, I told the children, 'One plus one, the SUM OF WHICH is two…”

I just wanted to say one thing. Beavis and Butthead’s episode with Beavis’s nose bleed. That right there is a classic.


“What the hell do you want from me?”
-Puff Daddy

God was walking in heaven and he came to the edge of heaven. There was a fence seperating heaven and hell. As God walked along he noticed the fence was falling apart so he called satan over. God told Satan to fix the fence but Satan refused. God threatened to take him to court. Satan laughed. God asked him why he was laughing Satan replied “where are you going to find a lawyer on your side” There was a condemned man who was taken to the gallows and had the noose placed around his neck. The condemned man was asked if he had any last words and the doomed man said “yes i don’t think this thing is safe”

A programmer and a salesman take a vacation together, up to a cabin in the woods. They’re planning to do some bear hunting.

When they get to the cabin, the programmer takes his stuff inside and starts unpacking. The salesman just tosses his suitcase in a corner, then exclaims: “I’m off to get us our first bear!” and dashes off.

After the programmer finishes putting all his stuff away, he goes out to sit on the porch. Some time later, he starts to hear noises out in the woods. At first it’s a far-off rustling, but it quickly gets louder, and closer. Suddenly, the salesman appears at the edge of the clearing, running like hell. Hot on his heels is the biggest, meanest-looking grizzly that the programmer has ever seen.

Still running, the salesman yells out, “Open the door!” So the programmer opens the door, and dashes into the cabin for safety.

The salesman sprints to the cabin, up the porch, and right up to the front door; then he skids to a stop and nimbly springs aside. Unable to stop, the rampaging grizzly charges past him, into the cabin.

Smiling, the salesman yanks the door closed and shouts, “Okay, now you skin that one and I’ll get us another!”

An executive, an engineer, and a programmer are on their way to a seminar. Since the trip is at company expense, they’re sharing the same rental car.

To get where they’re going, they have to drive through some mountainous country. At one point, while driving down a long, steep slope, the car’s brakes suddenly fail! They careen down the mountainside, swerving and skidding. By pure luck, the car hits a bump just the right way and turns over on its side. It screeches to a halt in a shower of sparks.

Amazed at their good fortune, the men climb out of the car and try to decide what to do.

“No problem,” says the executive. “I have my cell phone with me. I’ll call a tow truck and the rental agency. We’ll get a new car and be on our way in a couple of hours.”

“Don’t bother,” says the engineer. “I’ve got my Swiss Army knife and a roll of duct tape. I’ll strip the brake system, find the fault, and make repairs. I’ll have the car in perfect condition within forty-five minutes.”

“Hold on,” says the programmer. “Before doing anything, we should push the car back to the top of the hill, and see if we can reproduce the problem.”

Two drunks are siting at a bar.
One lets out a long, loud, smelly fart.
His buddy says “christ I think you shit your pants.”
To which the farter replys “yup, I think you’re right.”
“So why don’t you go wipe your ass.”
“Cause I ain’t done yet.”

It’s a scorching hot day back in the old west, and the Lone Ranger and Tonto have stepped into a saloon to have some beers and cool down.
After a while, a man walks in and says “Who owns that white horse outside?”
The Lone Ranger says “That’s my horse, Silver. What’s wrong?”
“You better go check him. He’s looking pretty bad from all this heat.”
The Lone Ranger and Tonto step outside and see that Silver has almost collapsed. They give him a pail of water but this has no effect.
The Lone Ranger says “I know what Silver needs. He needs a wind to cool him off. But there’s not even a breeze.”
Tonto says “I have an idea, kemosabe. We will make a wind for Silver by running circles around him as fast as we can. I will run around him first while you wait inside, then we will switch places.”
“That’s a great idea, Tonto. You start running and I’ll be out in ten minutes to take your place.”
So the Lone Ranger goes back inside the saloon and is finishing his beer. But before the ten minutes are up, another man walks into the bar and asks “Who owns that white horse outside?”
“That’s my horse, Silver. Is he okay?”
“Yeah, your horse is fine. But you left your Injun running.”

An American Indian went into a drugstore for the third time in one week to buy a case of cough syrup. The druggist asked, “Anyone sick at your house, Joe?”
“Nobody sick.”
“Then why do you buy so much cough syrup?”
“We like it on pancakes.”

Here are two of my favorite jokes.

The seven dwarfs were in a hot tub and feeling pretty happy. So Happy got out.

A blond woman is at the beginning of a line at a vending machine. She puts 50 cents in and presses Coke and a Coke comes out. She puts in 50 more cents and presses Sprite and a Sprite comes out. She puts in 50 more cents and presses Dr. Pepper and a Dr. Pepper comes out. She puts in 50 more cents and presses Mug Root Beer and a Rootbeer comes out. After about 10 minutes of doing this the people in line are extremely antsy. The next guy in line says, “What’s your problem woman!?” To which the blond woman responds, “DUH! I’m still winning.”

I don’t know if everyone’s heard this one or not, but…

Bill Gates dies and goes up to heaven’s gate. St. Peter looks at his scroll for a couple minutes, then says, “Well, Mr. Gates, you’ve done a lot for humanity, but you’ve also caused a lot of trouble. So I’m going to give you the choice of where you will be spending eternity. What’ll it be, heaven or hell?”

Bill Gates thinks a minute, then says, “What’s hell like?”

St. Peter says, “Well, I can take you there if you like, and you can see for yourself.”

Bill Gates agrees, so they go down to hell. In hell, there are voluptuous women playing volleyball on flawless, sandy beaches in a tropical climate, and there are patrons being served drinks on the house while they bask in the sun. Some people are parasailing, and others are talking happily with each other while they relax in the warm sun. Laughter and happiness is everywhere Bill Gates looks.

He says, “Wow! If this is hell, I’ll take it!”

So St. Peter leaves him there, promising to come back tomorrow to check up on him.

The next day, as promised, St. Peter descends into hell. There are fires everywhere, and Bill Gates is being tortured by a huge devil with a sharp pitchfork. There are people moaning and wailing, and Bill Gates says to St. Peter, “What happened to the tropical paradise you showed me yesterday? This is nothing like it!”

St. Peter smiles, and says, “Oh, that was just a demo.”

Three old men die, and show up at the pearly gates. They’re astonished to see that heaven looks like a modern city, though of course it’s a very clean and uncrowded one. Just outside the gate is a large parking lot, filled with cars of every color, shape and description. St. Peter is there too, standing behind what looks like a car-rental counter.

Well, the first guy goes up to the counter and gives his name. St. Peter looks it up in the computer and smiles. “Ah, I see that you remained completely faithful all through your sixty years of marriage. Take that red Viper at the end, over there.” He tosses the man the remote starter, and the key to a mansion. The man drives off.

The second guy goes to the counter, but St. Peter is not quite as pleased. “Oh, it says here that you twice cheated on your wife, in your first year of marriage. But after that, you cleaned up your act. The blue Saturn over there is yours.” He gives the man a plain keyring, and the address of a hotel. The man drives off.

When the third man goes to the counter, St. Peter clucks his tongue. “Dear me, this is an extensive record. All five of your wife’s sisters? And those poor sheep! That is for you.” He points to a rusty old Gremlin in the corner. The man eventually gets the ugly thing to move.

Some time later, as he’s pushing his Gremlin down the streets of Heaven, he sees a red Viper parked at a streetcorner. Its owner is standing nearby, banging his head repeatedly against a lamppost.

The Gremlin-driver rushes over and says, “Hey, quit it. You have this amazing car, a beautiful mansion, lots of great stuff. That’s your reward for being faithful. What are you so upset about?”

The man replies, “I just saw my wife go by on a skateboard.”

For a long time this was my favorite joke…

What did Kermit the Frog say when Jim Henson died?

Nothing.

A devout catholic dies and goes up to heaven, where he is met at the Pearly Gates by St Peter. Much to his horror he discovers that St Peter is a protestant and refuses to let him in. The man pleads “But St Peter, I’ve led a good life, I’ve always done my best and gone out of my way to help others, why only last week I gave ten pounds to a homeless man on the street!” St Peter isn’t that impressed and says “That’s all well and good but its not much is it.” The man replies “But that wasn’t all, the week before I gave ten pounds to a home for orphaned children” St Peter replies “Well thats nice but rules are rules and we don’t want any Catholics in here.” The man has one last go at getting in and says “Three weeks ago I even gave ten pounds to an animal hospital, as a charitable donation” St Peter thinks for a moment and says “Well, I’ll go talk to God and see what he thinks” and leaves. The man is nervous with anticipation and can’t relax until St Peter comes back. St Peter looks at this man, sitting there on the steps of the Pearly Gates and says “Allright, I’ve talked to God and we’ve agreed, here’s your thirty pounds back, now bugger off.”


It only hurts when I laugh.
