Ask Lemmy

When I hear/use the word condescending, I will look at someone and say: "That's when you talk down to people". Then let them get through their rant until they realise what just happened. I used to force it with "what do you call a kleptomaniac Dwarf going down a set of stairs? A little condescending, that's when you talk down to people".

Simple joke:

Knock knock, who's there, Europe, Europe who? No you're a poo.

I for one, like Roman numerals, that's perfection.

Three engineers are debating which discipline of engineering God used when making the human body. The electrical engineer says God's obviously an electrical engineer, cos the nervous system and the neurons moving around the body are wired like an electrical system.

The mechanical engineer stops him, God is obviously a mechanical engineer, look at the muscle and bones and the ways they interact and move with one another, it's just like a mechanical system.

The civil engineer smiles and jumps in, God is obviously a civil engineer; who else would run a waste pipe through a recreation centre?

I'm going to go with the original brick joke.

- "Vengo de Paraguay para matarte!"
- "¡¿Para qué?!"
- "Paraguay"

WARNING: This joke is not clean.

A couple were at a party when they confided in some friends that they were having problems in the bedroom. Their friends admitted they too had problems there but were cured by a fantastic doctor and made the recommendation.

The couple went to this doctor. He did a very thorough physical examination and told them he thought he could help them. He said, "Step one is, on the way home, stop in a grocery store and buy a box of donuts and a bag of cherries." Then to the woman he said, "place a donut on your husband's penis and slowly eat it off to get the spark back in your love-making." Then to the man he said, "Place some cherries inside your wife and do the same thing. Enjoy." So they did this and over time the excitement returned to the bedroom.

Later they met another couple with the same problem and recommended the doctor. So they went to the doctor, he did a thorough physical examination and said, "I'm sorry, but I can't help you." The couple was very distraught and didn't know what to do. So they begged the doctor to help them. Eventually he reluctantly agreed and he said to them, "On the way home, I want you to stop at the grocery store and buy a box of Cheerios and a bag of apples...."

(Place laughter here.)

All of Mitch Hedberg's jokes.

There was some study done by some ivy league school on the components of comedy and jokes that produced "the funniest joke," which I do like.

Kyle and Clark are out hunting and get separated. Kyle sees a deer off in the distance and BOOM. It goes down.

Kyle's excitement quickly turns to horror as he draws closer and realizes he's shot Clark by mistake. Panicking, he calls 911.

"Hello, emergency."

"YOUGOTTAHELPMEWEWEREOUTHUNTINGANDISHOTHIMHE'SDEADWHATDOIDOOHMYGODOHMYGODWHATDOIDOISHOTHIMHELPMEFUCKFUCK"

"Sir! Sir. Please calm down. First things first, I need you to make sure he's actually dead."

"Okay!" BOOM "Now what?"

The Norm MacDonald moth joke.

Pretty much anything to get a groan or chuckle out of my wife.

One time while cutting up an avocado I remarked that they need better prizes, because I always get the same one- a little wooden ball.

That was of course good for a groan, but it would not be the end of it. I tend to do most of our cooking, and since our kitchen is kind of small my wife is usually in the living room while I am and can't really see what I'm doing

So now whenever I'm cutting up an avocado I let out a groan of disappointment. And since my wife is a loving, caring sort of person she always asks "what's the matter?"

To which I reply with an exasperated "Another little wooden ball"

Going on 10 years, and she falls for in any time.

--

This isn't one I think particularly much of, I wasn't even particularly trying to be funny, but my wife got quite a chuckle out of it, so it ranks. I was doing dishes, while she was again in the other room, I think on the phone with her mother.

I go to grab a spoon to clean from the rather large pile in the sink, which set off a bit of a chain reaction of dishes and pots shifting around and making a bit of a racket.

I paused for moment, and just kind of commented out loud to myself "huh, so that was a load-bearing spoon"

And apparently something about that delivery made my wife crack up.

--

Another time I was dead tired and crashed early, and was apparently not very willing to share the blankets or pillows or something when my wife came to join me.

Being more asleep than awake, I mumbled that she could pry them from my cold dead hands WHen she tried to get me to give some bedding up for her use.

Unfortunately for me, my wife is one of those people who is always somehow cold, and so she just applied her icy hands to my body, causing me to exclaim "AAH, COLD DEAD HANDS!"

I once showed her a picture of a snake I saw when I was out for a hike. She asked me how big it was, I told her about 2 feet

Which I also told her is 2 more than most snakes have.

--

I pointed out some geese, and asked if she knows how geese fly in a V-formation, which of course she did. Then I asked if she knew why sometimes one side of the V was longer than the other, she did not

I informed her that it's because that side has more geese.

A guy wakes up one morning and hears a voice inside his head. It says, "Quit your job! Sell your house! Take all your money and go to Las Vegas!" He shrugs it off, but pretty soon he hears it again. "Quit your job! Sell your house! Take all your money and go to Las Vegas!" He keeps trying to ignore the voice, but the more he tries the more he hears it. Pretty soon he's hearing it constantly - "Quit your job! Sell your house! Take all your money and go to Las Vegas!"

Finally he can't stand it. he decides to believe the voice. He quits his job, sells his house, puts all his money in a suitcase and flies to Las Vegas. The moment he steps off the plane the voice says, "Go to Caesar's Palace!" He takes a cab to Caesar's Palace. The voice says, "Go to the roulette wheel!" He makes his way back to the roulette wheel. The voice says, "Bet it all on Red twenty-three!" He bets every cen he has on Red twenty-three.

The wheel spins around, and it stops on Black eleven. The voice says, "Fuck."

A guy finds an old lamp in the desert. He rubs it and a genie pops out. The genie tells the guy he has two wishes.

The guy says, "I always thought it was three wishes."

The genie says, "Check your pants."

The guy looks down and says, "Woah, it's huge!"

Genie says, "I've been doing this for a long time."

The Dalai Lama goes up to a hot dog vendor and says make me one with everything.

Edit: The Dalai Lama pays for the hot dog with a $20 bill, but the vendor doesn't give him any money back. The Lama asks for his change. The vendor says change must come from within.

There was an elderly couple going to get their checkups done. The wife went first. Everything was normal and the doctor says, "Well, everything looks great. Is there anything youd like me to bring uo with your husband? I know older men can be a bit headstrong about their health."

"Nothing too serious," she says; "but since you asked, it's just that he is always picking his nose and whenever we make love, he refuses to let me be on top. We've been married for 20 years and it's a hard line for him."

"Hmm, that is interesting. I'll be sure to mention it to him," replies the doctor.

So the husband goes next and everything seems to be in order. The doctor says, "your check up seems to be great, but I wanted to ask you about some concerns your wife had. Shes says you pick your nose a lot and wont let her be on top when you make love. I just want to make sure there aren't underlying concerns that you aren't mentioning."

The husband, looking rather flustered, says in a serious tone, "When I came to this country, my father told me two things. Keep your nose clean and dont fuck up!"

Did you hear about the drummer who had twin daughters? He named them anna 1 anna 2.

Why couldn't the lifeguard save the drowning hippie? He was too far out, man.

It's a knock knock joke;but, you have to start it.

A guy and his wife went to marriage therapy..

Therapist: Your wife says you don't pay attention to what's going on in her life and you're not romantic, for example, you never buy her flowers.

Husband: Gosh, I guess that's true. I mean.. I didn't even know she sold flowers.

Several centuries ago, the Pope decided that all the Jews had to leave the Vatican. Naturally there was a big uproar from the Jews, so the Pope agreed to debate with a member of their community. If the Jew won, they could stay. If the Pope won, the Jews would leave.

Knowing they had no choice, they picked old Rabbi Moshe to represent them. His Latin wasn't very good, but he was a man of great faith and well respected. He accepted, on condition that it would be a silent debate. The Pope agreed. After all, what could be easier than a silent debate?

On the day of the great debate, Moshe and the Pope sat opposite each other.

After a minute the Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers. Moshe looked back and raised one finger.

The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head. Moshe pointed to the ground.

The Pope pulled out a wafer and a glass of wine. Moshe pulled out an apple.

The Pope stood up and said, "I give up. This man is too good. The Jews can stay."

As the puzzled cardinals clustered around the Pope, he explained: "First I held up three fingers to represent the Trinity. He held up one finger to remind me that one God is common to both our religions. When I waved my finger around me to show that God was all around us, he pointed down to show that God is also right here with us. When I showed him the wine and the wafer to show that God absolves us from our sins, he showed me an apple to remind me of the original sin. He had an answer for everything. What could I do?"

Meanwhile, the Jews had crowded around Moshe. "What happened?" they asked. "Well," said Moshe, "He says to me, 'You Jews have three days to leave.' So I said: 'One!'" Then he tells me the whole city would be cleared of Jews. So I said to him, 'Listen here, Popey baby, the Jews ... we stay right here." "And then?" asked a woman. "Who knows?" said Moshe. "He took out his lunch so I took out mine.

Outside of a dog a book is man's best friend, inside it's too dark to read

A preacher tells his congregation that next Sunday he will be doing a sermon about the sin of lying. In preparation, he asks them to read Mark 17.

The next Sunday, he asks them to raise their hand if they read Mark 17. Everybody raises their hands.

The preacher says "that's funny because there is no Mark 17, Mark only has 16 chapters. Now on to my sermon about the sin of lying"

What’s the difference between a four year old and a bag of cocaine?

Eric Clapton isn’t going to let a bag of cocaine fall out of the window.

Seriously, though, it’s really bad taste to make jokes about Clapton’s son, since he was a very prolific writer. Not many people know this, but he did nearly 50 stories before his death.

This Twonks two panel is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen. Anyone I show it to cracks up. He is a genius.

Why don't Mennonites have sex standing up?

Because it could lead to dancing.

(Explanation: some Mennonite sects believe that dancing is inappropriate. Sex is not considered dirty, as long as it is within a marriage.)

3 guys are hiking through the woods when they find a lamp.

One of them picks it up, rubs it, and out pops a Genie.
It shouts "You have finally freed me after all these years, so I'll grant each one of you 3 wishes." The first guy immediately blurts out "I want a billion dollars." POOF, he's holding a printout that shows his account balance is now in fact 1,000,000,003.50
The second man thinks for a bit, then says "I want to be the richest man alive." POOF, he's holding papers showing his net worth is now well over 500 billion.
The third guy thinks even longer about his wish, then says "I want my left arm to rotate clockwise for the rest of my life." POOF, his arm starts rotating.
The Genie tells them it's time for their second wish.
First guy says: "I want to be married to the most beautiful woman on earth." POOF, a stunning beauty wraps herself around his arm.
Second guy says "I want to be good-looking and charismatic, so I can have every girl I want." POOF, his looks change and the first guy's wife immediately starts flirting with him.
Third guy says "I want my right arm to rotate counter-clockwise until I die." POOF, now both his arms are rotating, in opposite directions.
The genie tells them to think very carefully about their third wish.
First guy does, and after a while says "I never want to become sick or injured, I want to stay healthy until I die." POOF, his complexion improves, his acne is gone and his knees don't bother him any more.
Second guy says "I never want to grow old. I want to stay 29 forever." POOF, he looks younger already.
Third guy smiles triumphantly and says "My last wish is for my head to nod back and forth." POOF, he's now nodding his head and still flailing his arms around. The genie wishes them good luck, disappears, and the men soon go their separate ways.

Many years later they meet again and chat about how things have been going. First guy is ecstatic: "I've invested the money and multiplied it many times over, so me and my family will be among the richest of the rich pretty much forever. My wife is a freak in the sheets, and I've never gotten so much as a cold in all these years."
Second guy smiles and says "Well, I built charities worldwide with a fraction of my wealth, I'm still the richest guy alive and also revered for my good deeds. I haven't aged a day since we last met, and yes, your wife is pretty wild in bed."
Third guy walks in, flailing his arms around and nodding his head, and says:

"Guys, I think I fucked up."
