I'm sure I have most of them somewhere...

...in your head? 

 

Some of the books and posters are so well done that you question their fakery. The Pelican 'The Poor & Other Invertebrates' ....A dark mind at work.

I agree, I think it is painstakingly well done and very funny in a dark way, and certainly it does not lack subtlety. Thanks for pointing it out Graeme.

 

"The policeman is alone. Get him!"

...actually made me laugh out loud. 

But I can see why it mightn't be to everyone's taste. Nevertheless perhaps a little, er, rereading is called for JSH...

Me and the wife have just been to the cinema to see that new film Suffragette.

Two hours of a woman's struggle........full of tears, aggression, sadness, anger and frustration.

Anyway, after she finally managed to park the car in the cinema car park we rushed in and caught the credits...

Nice one, Tony. That made me laugh.

I was just about to send that on to SWIMBO but thought no... my remaining life is too short already.

An Englishman walks into a bar.

 

There's usually a Scotsman, Welshman and Irishman too; but they're all still at the Rugby World Cup...

An Englishman, Irishman & a Scotsman walk in to a pub.

The barman says, "Is this some kind of joke!"

So what's the difference between the English rugby team and a tea bag? The tea bag stays in the cup longer..

True story...

 

Was on the phone at work with someone from the UK that was in Seattle and someone from the UK actually in the UK on the call.  Somehow we got onto something related to the World Cup which was going on at the time and the two limeys went off talking about soccer (football), but the one in the UK was a rugby player.  I mentioned I preferred rugby and enjoyed photographing it...he said this:

 

"Rugby is a savage game played by gentlemen.  Football is a gentleman's game played by savages."

 

Never forgot this and use it anytime someone mentions either sport.

"Do you like having sex with me when I wear something naughty or when I'm totally naked?" asked my wife.


"No." I replied.

Naturally, I wouldn't normally comment any more, but as you invited me to....
I've re-read some, not all of it.  I still feel it a bit like watching someone being hit repeatedly round the head by a frying pan.  Funny to an extent, but it could have been so much better.  But others like it; fine.  I'm not bowled over; fine too!  I don't find Sarah Millican or Lee Mack funny but thousands do.  None of us is right or wrong; we just differ

Mack & Millican do nothing for me either JSH (and are mainstream beyond belief) but I am keen for some of your thoughts on how 'Scarfolk' "could have been done so much better".

I was sort of forced to watch a Jim Davidson live DVD recently - I found most of it seriously unfunny and was offended by quite a lot of it. I did however laugh out loud once - but felt dirty.

 

Sadly most of the pepole around me thought it was hilarious - the fact that I didn't was completely irrelevant.

Please keep to the topic - "best" jokes.

 

SS and JSH, I've edited and removed some posts here.  I suggest you both bury the hatchet and move one.  No further comment is required.  Thank you.
