'Tell me a joke'

216 replies

Woopzies · 16/03/2024 20:44

Had a work meeting yesterday. Whole team present including boss.

Boss, in a funny mood, goes 'tell me a joke.' One by one, everyone told their joke. We got to me and I went totally blank, followed by histerics because I don't know any jokes.

I hadn't realised until then that I actually don't know any jokes. The logical side of me says that it really isn't a big deal but the other side of me feels like there's something wrong with me for not knowing any jokes. AIBU?!

A piece of string walks into a bar and orders a beer.

The barman says 'we don't serve string in here, you'll have to leave.'

The string goes outside and twists itself around and around and messes up its hair.

It goes back in and orders a beer again.

The barman says 'weren't you just in here, you're that piece of string, aren't you?!'

The string says 'no, I'm a frayed knot!'

Oh FFS must you? 🙄🙄

Using that poor girl's death to make some sort of 'point' and spread misery on this thread, is pretty low.

Other threads are available if this one offends you.

A man is out drinking and vomits down the front of his new shirt. He says "Dammit, I can't go home like this, my wife will kill me."

The bartender says "Put £20 in your pocket and tell her a drunk puked on you and gave you the money for dry cleaning". The guy agrees and goes home.

His wife sees him and asks what happened. He says "A drunk guy puked on me so he gave me £20 for cleaning". She says "Ok but why are you holding a £50?"

"Because he also shit in my pants".
