A Joke From Jane (my mom)

I come from a very funny family (not just talking 'bout our looks, either). The other night, I joined my mom and dad for dinner and this joke rolled off my mom's tongue:

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One looks at the other and says, "Does this taste funny to you?"

  2. The cannibal said it tasted 'funny', not burnt.

  3. Ha!

    An elderly couple on a plane journey to Spain. The wife is hard of hearing. The male flight attendant asks the husband,

    "Where are you from?" (FA)
    "England" (Husband)
    "What did he say?" (Wife)
    "He asks where we are from." (Husband)
    Ohhh..." (Wife)
    "Whereabouts in England?" (FA)
    "London" (Husband)
    "What did he say?" (Wife)
    "He asks whereabouts." (Husband)
    "Ohhh..." (Wife)
    "I met a woman from London once, she was absolutely horrid and to top it all she was even bad in bed!" (FA)
    "What did he say?" (Wife)
    "He knows you." (Husband)

    Hope you are feeling happier! :)

    I have one:
    Patrick came home one night and when he opened the door, his wife hit him on the head with a frying pan.
    "what was that for?", he asked.
    "I found a piece of paper with a phone number on it in your pants pocket", she said.
    "Oh, that's not a phone number, it's just the number of the horse I am betting on at the track", he said.
    "Oh, ok", she said, relieved.
    The next night, Patrick came home again and when he got to the door, his wife hit him on the head with a frying pan again.
    "what was that for?", he asked.
    She replied,.............................................................. "Your horse called"

  7. Your mom called.


    That was the worst joke ever told. And, trust me, my best friend has been trying to top that one for years, but his jokes are so bad they swing their way around the spectrum and become funny. This one merely caused the rolling of tumbleweeds and chirruping of crickets.

    No, no, no: that joke suxored.


    On another note, Bhakti, what do you call a man with no arms and no legs lying at your doorstep?

    (Oh, yes, I've just 'gone there.')

  20. An old Italian man lived alone in the country.
    He wanted to dig his tomato garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison.
    The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

    'Dear Vincent, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my tomato garden this year.
    I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot.
    If you were here my troubles would be over.
    I know you would dig the plot for me. Love, Pop'

    A few days later he received a letter from his son.
    'Dear Pop, Not for nothing, but don't dig up that garden.
    That's where I buried the BODIES. Love, Vinnie'

    At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies.
    They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

    'Dear Pop, Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now.
    That's the best I could do under the circumstances.
    Love, Vinnie'

    I dont really know many jokes (I can never remember them) I can only think of a couple (and if your not a musician they may not be funny) anyway.

    What do you call a guy who hangs out with a bunch of musicians?

    a drummer

    What do you call a drummer without a girlfriend?

    homeless

    How do you get a drummer to play his kit?

    Start to tune your guitar

    I dont mean to rip on drummers but like I said those are the only ones I remember

  24. I can't remember my mom telling any jokes. She would, however, read us jokes she came across in magazines. One of my earliest memories--she had to explain the joke and I must of been about 6--had to do with a job applicant with a speech problem. THe interviewer was impressed that he'd spent the last four years in Yale (when it was Jail). I don't remember the joke, just her explaining it.

  27. DEE- I've been playing the guitar since I was 7 and the drums since I was 16, so I TOTALLY get those jokes! Drumemrs are a different breed, aren't they!?!

    SAGE-- The funny thing about my mom telling that joke was that
    A) She remembered the punchline; and B) there was this eerie lull in conversation/argumentation at the dinner table that was like a vaccuum. My mom filled this vaccuum with the joke. It was just strange...but funny! Had to be there, I suppose!

  28. Hey Dee - What do you do if a drummer knocks on your door?

    You take the pizza and pay him.
