When I was at uni I was invited to a party by a girl I had a crush on (on whom I had a crush?); it was a number-themed party, and we (the girl, me, and two of her friends) were going as π. I was the decimal point, but she was the 4, which meant I had a miserable time, with someone between us the whole time. The main reason I went to the party was to spend some time next to her, but that just didn’t work. It was quite disappointing; I really thought she was the one.

A Stick: 2AbstractA stick, of course. This masterpiece of human creativity is an example of a dad joke, a clean, good-natured joke founded on puns, literalism, and wordplay. After unpacking the structures, contents, and comedic devices that distinguish dad jokes from related genres, the present research explored both the features of dad jokes that make them funny and the kinds of people who find them funny. Study 1coded over 32,000 jokes scraped from the Reddit r/dad jokes community. Ridge regression models found that a joke’s upvotes and comments were modestly predictable from its text and topic features(test sample R2=4.02%and 4.42%).After curating a hypercube subsample of 501 dad jokes, Study 2 found that both text features (e.g., concreteness, semantic distance, question framing) and topic features (e.g., moms, pregnancy, and numbers)predicted the funniness ratings made by adults (n= 621) much more effectively(cross-validated R2= 28.2%). Study 3 found that individual differences in people’s funniness ratings were associated with cultural conventionality(e.g., parenthood, more education, affluence, religiosity, and conservatism)and social boldness(e.g., need for uniqueness, low honesty-humility, and boldness; cross-validated R2= 32.4%),and that dads found the dad jokes funnier. Seemingly simple wordplay humor illuminates the psychology of verbal creativity and extends the psychology of aesthetics into art encounters that provoke feelings of amusement, playfulness, and absurdity. The coded dad jokes are freely available for researchers interested in studying humor or hassling their teenagers

We’ve probably had this one before, but it raised a smile anyway:

Trump dies and ends up in hell.

The Devil tells Trump that as hell is full they’re operating a ‘one in, one out’ policy, but as he’s a president he can chose who to replace. He’s shown three doors.

Behind the first door is Obama pushing a huge boulder up a hill. When he gets to the top the boulder rolls down and he has to start again. ‘That looks like a lot of hard work’ thinks Trump.

Behind the next door is Bush constantly swinging a hammer to break a huge stone. Each time he breaks one a new one appears. ‘I’m not sure my back swing could do that’ thinks Trump.

Finally, behind the next door he sees Clinton tied to a bed, with Monica Lewinsky doing what she’s best known for. Every time he comes Clinton shouts out in agony ‘oh, no, not again’ as she starts over.

The devil comes up to Trump and asks if he’s made a decision. ‘Yes, I’ll take the third room’.

‘Ok’ says the Devil and opens the door. ‘Good news Monica, you’re off to heaven’.

Just to balance things up a bit, here’s a mum joke for you all:

One day, a little girl is sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly notices that her mother has several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. She looks at her mother and asks, “Why are some of your hairs white, mom?” Her mother replies, “Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.” The little girl thinks about this for a while, and then says, “Wow, Momma, you must have really pissed off Grandma!”

“A teenage boy is getting ready to take his girlfriend to the prom. First he goes to rent a tux, but there’s a long tux line at the shop and it takes forever.

Next, he has to get some flowers, so he heads over to the florist and there’s a huge flower line there. He waits forever but eventually gets the flowers.

Then he heads out to rent a limo. Unfortunately, there’s a large limo line at the rental office, but he’s patient and gets the job done.

Finally, the day of the prom comes. The two are dancing happily and his girlfriend is having a great time. When the song is over, she asks him to get her some punch, so he heads over to the punch table and there’s no punchline.”

An 80-year-old man was having his annual checkup when the doctor asked him how he was feeling.

“I’ve never been better! “ he boasted.

“I have an 18 year old young woman who is pregnant and expecting my child! What do you think? “

The doctor thought for a moment, then said:

“Let me tell you a story. I knew a passionate hunter. He never missed a season. But one day he rushed out and accidentally grabbed his umbrella instead of his gun.

The doctor continued:

“He was in the woods and suddenly a grizzly bear appeared in front of him! He raised his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and clutched the handle. And you know what happened? “ asked the doctor.

Stunned, the old man replied:

“No what? “

The doctor continued:

“The bear fell dead in front of him”.

“It’s impossible! “ exclaimed the old man.

“Someone else must have shot the bear”.

“That’s kind of what I meant”, the doctor replied.

That Les was 92 when Oswald was conceived?

That Les was 92 when the test was done, with Oswald having been around for some years?

Or that Oswald was 92 when the test was done?

Some little jokes from Quora (I don’t get the 3rd one.)

A German tourist decides to visit France. The French immigration officer asks “Occupation?” The German says “No, just visiting.”

A termite walks into a bar and asks “is the bar tender here?”

How do you fit an elephant into a Safeway bag?You take the ‘s’ out of ‘safe’ and the ‘f’ out of ‘way’.

Why do Marxists drink herbal tea? Because all proper tea is theft.

King Arthur was preparing to go out on an expedition and would be away from Camelot for an indefinite period of time. King Arthur was worried about leaving Queen Guinevere alone with all those horny knights of the Round Table. So he went to Merlin for some advice. The good wizard showed him his latest invention. It was a chastity belt… except that it had a rather large hole in the most obvious place. ‘This is no good, Merlin!’ the king exclaimed, ‘Look at this opening. How is this supposed to protect m’lady, the Queen?’ ‘Ah, sire, just observe.’ said Merlin.He then selected his most worn-out wand. He then inserted it in the gaping hole of the chastity belt whereupon a small guillotine blade came out and cut t he stick neatly in two. ‘Merlin, you are a genius!’ said King Arthur. After putting Guinevere in the device, King Arthur then set out upon his Quest. Several years passed until he returned to Camelot. Immediately he assembled all his knights in the courtyard and had them drop their trousers for a ‘short arm’ inspection. Sure enough, each of them has an amputated little Johnny or was damaged in some way. All of them except Sir Galahad. ‘Sir Galahad’, exclaimed King Arthur, ‘The one and only true knight! Only you among all the nobles have been true to me. What is it in my power to grant you? Name it and it is yours!’ But Sir Galahad was speechless.

King Arthur was worried about leaving Queen Guinevere alone with all those horny knights of the Round Table. So he went to Merlin for some advice. The good wizard showed him his latest invention. It was a chastity belt… except that it had a rather large hole in the most obvious place. ‘This is no good, Merlin!’ the king exclaimed, ‘Look at this opening. How is this supposed to protect m’lady, the Queen?’ ‘Ah, sire, just observe.’ said Merlin.He then selected his most worn-out wand. He then inserted it in the gaping hole of the chastity belt whereupon a small guillotine blade came out and cut t he stick neatly in two. ‘Merlin, you are a genius!’ said King Arthur. After putting Guinevere in the device, King Arthur then set out upon his Quest. Several years passed until he returned to Camelot. Immediately he assembled all his knights in the courtyard and had them drop their trousers for a ‘short arm’ inspection. Sure enough, each of them has an amputated little Johnny or was damaged in some way. All of them except Sir Galahad. ‘Sir Galahad’, exclaimed King Arthur, ‘The one and only true knight! Only you among all the nobles have been true to me. What is it in my power to grant you? Name it and it is yours!’ But Sir Galahad was speechless.

I don’t get it either.

Sir Galahad had lost his tongue.

A C, an E-flat, and a G go into a bar. The bartender says: “Sorry, but we don’t serve minors.” So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between them.

After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished and the G is out flat. An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough.

A D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying, “Excuse me. I’ll just be a second.”

An A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor.

Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and exclaims: “Get out now! You’re the seventh minor I’ve found in this bar tonight.”

The E-flat, not easily deflated, comes back to the bar the next night in a 3-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender (who used to have a nice corporate job until his company downsized) says: “You’re looking sharp tonight, come on in! This could be a major development.”
This proves to be the case, as the E-flat takes off the suit, and everything else, and stands there au natural.

Eventually, the C sobers up, and realizes in horror that he’s under a rest.
The C is brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda at an upscale correctional facility.
On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless.

The bartender decides, however, that since he’s only had tenor so patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom, and everything has become alto much treble, he needs a rest—and closes the bar.

And this is not just a dad joke, it’s a grand dad joke:

A carpet-installer went to a woman’s house to do a job. He was a meticulous worker and took great pains. Eventually, he finished and reached in his back pocket for his cigarettes but couldn’t find them. Then, he spotted a lump under the carpet he had just installed.

Thoroughly exasperated with himself but not wanting to redo the job, he took his spirit level and mashed down the lump, continuing to smooth the surface until one could not tell that anything was there.

He went out to return his tools to his truck and was surprised to see his pack of cigarettes on the seat.

Just then, the woman came out and said, “Have you seen my parakeet?”
