Man takes his fish into the veterinarian and says to the doc, "I think my fish has epilepsy."
Doctor takes a look at the fish thru the fishbowl and says, "I don't see anything wrong with him sir. He looks completely healthy."
Before the doctor could usher him out the exam room, the man replied, "Wait doc... Lemme take him outta the bowl!"

A guy got pulled on the side of the road by a police officer.

"Good morning, Officer. What's the problem ?"

"You were speeding well over the limit. Can I see your licence ? and have you name and profession ?"

"Of course, Name's John Smith, I'm an asshole enlarger and here is my licence."

"Asshole enlarger, seriously. What's that ?"

"You see, Officer, some people think they have too small an asshole. So they call upon my services to stretch it. Then I put gloves on, a lot of lubricant and insert first a finger then two, three, and son until I get my hand in. Then, I start working to insert the other hand. When I reach that step, I begin to use tools to keep the stretching going on. When they're real loose, I start using struts for shoring. I stop when they have a 6 foot asshole."

"Unbelievable ! And what can people do with a 6 foot asshole ?"

"They give him a uniform and put him on the side of the road.""

'Cause see, I thought the joke in squirl's post was that As you point out, the jokes are great, the tagline shits it actually WAS a tagline, and therefore ironic.

I guess not.

Those taglines are dumb, but they're a verbalisation of the old vaudeville / musichall tradition of the percussionist making a drumroll+rimshot after the comic cracks a joke (and therefore a cue, for the audience, to laugh).

People like to be told when to laugh.

Not everybody.

Shawnee -that extra line has been added by someone other than the original author, therefore SN's post was not complete until fixed by me.... ;)

Ahhh, yeah...that makes sense.

Not only do I not want to be told when to laugh, apparently I'm completely oblivious to the cues. No wonder I get funny looks at funerals and murder trials.

am i supposed to laugh now?

Hang on a second:

Ahhh, yeah...that makes sense.

Not only do I not want to be told when to laugh, apparently I'm completely oblivious to the cues. No wonder I get funny looks at funerals and murder trials.

The funeral-goers and victim's families were not amused.

Better? :D

Now I get it.
He said, getting it.

And then I laughed.

:lol:

And then the laughing smilie let us know, one and all, that it's OK to laugh. Laugh my children, laugh!

bwahahahahahahahaha *snort* ...wait, what was the joke again?

I'm not sure but it was funny

THE BEST DRUNK STORY OF THE MONTH




A drunken man walks into a biker bar, sits down at the bar and orders a drink. Looking around, he sees three men sitting at a corner table. He gets up, staggers to the table, leans over,looks the biggest, meanest, biker in the face and says:




'I went by your grandma's house today and






I saw her in the hallway buck-naked.








Man, she is one fine looking woman!'








The biker looks at him and doesn't say a word.








His buddies are confused, because he is one bad biker and would fight at the drop of a hat.


The drunk leans on the table again and says:






'I got it on with your grandma and she is good,






the best I ever had!'




The biker's buddies are starting to get really mad






but the biker still says nothing.




The drunk leans on the table one more time and says,




'I'll tell you something else, boy,


your grandma liked it!'



At this point the biker stands up,




takes the drunk by the shoulders




looks him square in the eyes and says....................





'Grandpa;.......... Go home!

You forgot the puchline: Grandpa looked chagrined and did so.
