Heh. A girl walks into a doctor’s office. She has grapes up her nose and a banana in her ear. The doctor says “You’re not eating right.” ---

Hah! Why did the monkey fall out of the tree? -He was dead. Why did the second monkey fall out of the tree? -He was dead, too. Why did the third monkey fall out of the tree? -He was handcuffed to the second monkey. Why did the fourth monkey fall out of the tree? -He thought it was a new game. (Wild monkey party, there…) Also, from my little brother, my absolute favorite joke-to-tell-for-perplexed-looks-and-groans: What’s brown and sticky? -A STICK! (must be yelled out while staring at other party as if they were an idiot for best effect) Ah… comedy gold. (Please stop me now. I am a girl scout leader and have four little brothers. This could go on for hours.) ---

When I was a preteen, a good friend of mine had this joke: “By George”, said Paul, sitting on the john, “Where did my ring go?” My little cousin used to tell this one. To get the full effect you have to say it as fast as possible and with little ennuciation. The _nudge nudge wink wink_ is key. Hello? You don’t say you don’t say you don’t say who was it he didn’t say _nudge nudge wink wink_ he didn’t say! Hello? You don’t say you don’t say you don’t say who was it he didn’t say _nudge nudge wink wink_ he didn’t say! Hello? You don’t say you don’t say you don’t say who was it he didn’t say _nudge nudge wink wink_ he didn’t say! Hello? You don’t say you don’t say you don’t say who was it he didn’t say _nudge nudge wink wink_ he didn’t say! Hello?

There are two sausages lying in a frying pan, and one rolls over and says to the other, “Ohh! It is so hot in here. Can you believe how hot it is in here?” And the other one says, “Oh my god, a talking sausage!” ---

This joke is my SIGNATURE. I’ve _never_ known someone who has heard it, and only about 10% of people laugh (and they usually have to know me first.) \*\*\*Me: “Ask me if I’m a bus.” Them: “Are you a bus?” Me: (wide-eyed, yet deadpan) “No.”\*\*\*\* And then: Q. If April showers bring May flowers, what do May flowers bring? A. Pilgrims. and last: Q: What do you get if you cross an elephant and peanut butter? A. An elephant that sticks to the roof of your mouth. ---

> [@Dracona](#): > > \*\*\*Me: “Ask me if I’m a bus.” > > Them: “Are you a bus?” > > Me: (wide-eyed, yet deadpan) “No.”\*\*\*\* A friend of mine tells slightly modified version of this joke: Him: Ask me if I’m a bus. Them: Are you a bus? Him (deadpan): Yes. Now ask me if I’m an airplane. Them: Are you an airplane? Him: No silly, I’m a bus. My own favorite came from boy scout camp 20 years ago… Question: How do you sell a duck to a deaf person? Answer: **DO YOU WANT TO BUY A DUCK?** ---
