And I
managed to do one!!!
Now what you
are probably thinking now is tell me what this amazing concoction is, depart
your pearl of comic genius upon me. Well it wasn’t funny, like I said I was
eight at the time… everything is funny when your eight and this barely drew a
titter! But it struck me as I got older that you never really meet people who
have come up with genuinely funny jokes. We have all seen comedians on the TV
or even managed to see one or two live… but very few of us are friends with
these individuals.
However I
had now become one of these founding fathers. I had longed to follow in the
footsteps of those great visionaries who had given the world Knock Knock jokes,
or Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road Puns. Speaking of which my brother was
the Salvador Dali of Chicken Crossing the Road Jokes… at five years old he gave
us this ditty:
Why did the Chicken cross the road?

Nine years
later I was to have my dream fulfilled whilst serving in Her Majesties British
Army. One of my fellow Soldiers who was
from Newcastle (or it could have been Liverpool I can’t remember which!) told
me my very own joke back to me!
It still
wasn’t funny (despite the comedy accent he told it in!).
The really
strange thing however is this… the chap that told me the joke was born on
exactly the same day, month and year as me! Weird! But anyway I have teased you
enough, here in all its glory is the very joke I made up when a child repeated
back to me nearly a decade later. Enjoy…
Did you hear about the Irish Lamp post? It pissed
on a Dog!

I TOLD YOU IT WASN’T FUNNY!
Can you believe my mother didn't believe me when I said I had made that joke up. Now why-o-why would I pretend to have made that up lol.
Well as a
tribute to looking back at the gem I created I have attempted to invent some
brand new jokes (these are equally as bad, well they only took me half an hour to
come up with them so what do you expect!). I apologise in advance for what I am
about to commit!
I was drinking a bottle of
wine the other day, it said serve at room temperature. It was horrible… I was
in a Sauna at the time!
They say one in eleven men
are gay… that’s why I can only play 5 a-side football!
Someone asked me how I took
my Tea, I replied orally!
My son asked me where babies
come from, I told him I have no idea… I always fake it!
Did you know the most
commonly used letter in the “alphabet” is E, I thought it was A!
Apparently it’s impolite to pass
wind in public, that’s why I always drive patiently behind it!
Did you know the smallest
bones in the human body are found in your ear… that’s why I never hear what my
wife is going on about, I’m bone idle!
If things are going to get
bad “The shit hits the fan”. If someone is provoking the situation they are
“Fanning the flames”. Well personally I have always been a Fan of the Truth!
Did you know honey is the
only natural food which never goes off, I always thought it was the most loyal
thing in our pantry!
My son asked me what I think
he will be when he’s older… I told him more expensive!
Apparently there are many
allegories in the Bible… Does that mean it’s a work of fiction?
In Space no one can hear you
scream… that’s why they only watch Rom Coms on the International Space Station!
Did you know frogs can't
swallow with their eyes open… that’s why I always blindfold them!
If you fall in love, will you
always land with a bump?
My love life is like Star
Wars… Han Solo but always trying to Leia!
The Judge asked me why I
killed the Board Guy holding the Golf Shop sign on Oxford Street… I told him I
was shooting a commercial!
Did you know the hyoid bone
in your throat is the only bone in your body not attached to any other… you can
make up your own jokes for that fact!
This will
probably be my last ever blog as I am sure I will be locked up for crimes
against humour and tortured to within an inch of my life… and then tortured
some more!
