Any time I see someone wearing camouflage, I’ve got to suppress the urge to say “sorry, buddy, didn’t see you!” ---

My FIL seems to know 90% of these and can’t ever leave without saying something like: See you in the future, not the pasture. See you in church if the windows are clean. or If someone says, “See you later” he will say, “Not if I see you first”. My standard reply to old jokes is another old joke, “The last time I heard that, I laughed so hard I fell of my dinosaur.” ---

> [@Bosstone](#): > > Not quite so old as some of the jokes thrown about here, but “o rly?” “ya rly” never gets tired for me. I’m not even sure I know why it’s supposed to be funny, but it makes me giggle. I’m a sucker in general for overused internet jokes. My friends and I shortened it to “orly?” 'Yarly!" It usually appears like that on pictures. (Oh, and to clarify, we pronounce it like or and yar being turned into adverbs). > [@Paintcharge](#): > > Sooo…this three legged dog walks into a bar. He hops up on the bar and says “I’m looking for the man who shot my paw.” > > Sooo…this horse walks into a bar. The bartender looks at him ans says “Why the long face?” > > Sooo…this termite walks into a bar and says “Is the bar tender here?” > > Sooo…this piece of string walks into a bar. The bartender looks at him and says “We don’t serve your kind in here.” The piece of string goes back out side, twists himself up, messes up his hair and walks back into the bar. The bartender says “Didn’t I tell you we don’t serve your kind in here?” > The piece of string says “I’m afraid knot.” Sooo… a polar bear walks into a bar and says "Hey, barkeep, get me some gin… and tonic!" The barkeep says “woah, what’s with the big pause?” The polar bear replies “I don’t know, I’ve had them all my life.” Obviously it works a little better spoken, even better if you tell the first half and then finish it later in the conversation or the next day. Nothing better than walking up to your friend a week later after they’ve forgotten about it and just going “and tonic!” then finishing the joke and watching their reaction. ---

Another one of my faves (which I stole from a “The Empire Strikes Back” parody in Cracked Magazine waaaaay back in the day) which I really can’t resist using and then laughing out loud at is when someone asks me if I’d like to join them. And I say, “Why, are you falling apart?” Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! 😃 ---

Couple more I remembered: “Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.” and “No shit? Well, hardly any.” (I’ve forgotten the joke for this one, but the punch line never fails to get a chuckle around our house). ---

I also love: How do you make a cat sound like a dog? Soak it in gasoline then hit it with a match… WOOF! How do you make a dog sound like a cat? Stick it in the freezer then run it through a table saw… MROOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW! What’s red and sits in the corner? a baby chewing on razor blades. What’s blue and sits in the corner? A baby in a plastic bag. What’s green and sits in the corner? The same baby a month later. When I see a mother-to-be talking about her baby, or a new mom showing off the new baby, I like to ask, as seriously possible, “Are you sure it’s yours?” ---

What’s easier to unload, a truck full of bricks or a truck full of babies? Babies. You can’t spear bricks with pitchforks. Guy calls his office and tells his boss he’s going to be late, as he has a flat. Boss asks what happened. Guy says, “I ran over a bottle, and it broke just right to cut into the tire.” Boss responds, “Ran over a bottle?! Didn’t you see it?” “No, little bastard had it in his jacket.” ---

I already plan on adopting some of the ones in this thread. People upon meeting me either think I’m hilarious or the most annoying person evar. 😃 ---
