I decided to start a joke discussion because we as caregivers need our load lightened. We need to laugh at our own situations and those of others to take away the sting and pain we go through. If you have a joke that's racy then give a heads up at the beginning of your post for those who might not want to read your post. We need to avoid that kind of humor. Please don't come on this thread and berate anyone for their choices of humor. This is our place to let go of criticism. Thanks for sharing!!!! ;o)
That's ok, it's easy to do even if you do keep reading it over and over - our eyes start to play tricks on us especially before that first cup of "java."
I've done that with so many regular comments on threads - the EDIT button has become my friend. Even then, I've had to go back many, many times! Geez, I just had to use it on this post after I've been gone awhile!! I'll blame it on my lousy instant, decaf coffee!! Husband is bringing back the "real" thing (not coke, caffeinated coffee).
I still understood what you were trying to say! :)
Two grandmothers at the playpark, sitting together and discussing life. And one says to the other "Look. Look at that boy over there. Did you ever see such ears on a kid. Those are HUGE ears. Oh, and by the way, that nose; what a nose on that child." A few moments pass and she says "Oh, and those knees, so bowed. And the feet; we used to call those pigeon toed".
Finally the other grandmother turns to her and says -- yes, you got it --"But that's my GRANDSON you are talking about".
And without a pause the first critical one says "But WAIT. You never let me FINISH! I was only going to say that............On HIMMMMMM it all looks GOOD!"
Joke #1 was posted a long time ago by Polar Bear. (Priest in the closet).
Joke # 2 & #3 were posted by BuzzyBee and liked by e v e r y o n e, so much.
Joke # 5 was posted by Margaret McKen and proves that politics and religion discussions stand the test of time, are not banned on the forum.
Not my jokes, but did you all "like" them?
Iv'e hugged it too,thanking it for all the fun it gave me growing up.It never answers back,but I still talk to it anyway.It's my favorite~
Should I make a joke now?
Love you all!
A traveler some years ago has trouble with his watch (probably before batteries), finds a shop in the small town street with a window display of clocks and watches, goes in and asks the shopkeeper if he can fix the watch. The guy says no, he doesn’t deal with watches or clocks. Traveler is a bit piqued, and asks why the window display, then? Answer ‘I like clocks’. Traveler ‘Why not advertise what you actually do?’. Shopkeeper ‘I circumcise all the boy babies for the district. What do YOU think I should put in the window?’.
When I was a kid we actually had to puts rocks in wheel barrels to move them to another area of the front yard. I can't imagine the rich and famous taking a rake to their own yards, much less the wilderness out West.
I like tulip trees too. Never knew they existed until I moved to to my current state of residence.
I had to have a huge dead tree removed recently. I couldn’t take the chance of it falling on the neighbor’s house to cause damage during a hurricane.
We do miss trees. Isn’t it interesting how trees bloom their hearts out the season before dying. It’s their last hurrah! They rally too.
Cost me $1700 to remove that tree! I called several tree removal companies and that was the going rate.
There I've managed to make a joke that is offensive to both elderly and religious folks.
Alva, I've just skimmed through a synopsis of Powers' Overstory and added it to my book list. Barnes & Noble, here I come!
"Look, they are bringing in the rakes!"
The other tree says,
"What are we gonna do now for nutients, drink bleach?"
I swear, not a political joke.
Q - How did you know that she was the woman you should marry?
A - When I asked her for a screwdriver and she answered "Philips, flat head or vodka" I knew she was the one!
Because every play has a cast.
Thank you for the vote of confidence with my joke postings - glad you like them! Most the time I just like to post them when I feel either in a funk, in a silly mood after a long day or after reading a lot of serious, sad stories on the forum.
Because his car got toad away.
(I hope he got to work on time!)
Because it was being knotty.
Who's there?
Control freak.
Con...
Okay now you say,
"Control freak who?"
A sign at a music shop:
"Gone chopin.
Bach in a minuet."
What did the DNA say to the other DNA?
Do these genes make me look fat?
( just don't ever ask your husband that question!)
Ba - na- na- naaaaaaaaa!
Why is an island like the letter "T"?
They're both in the middle of water!
