  • Comfort in Comedy: The Elderly’s Wit

    An elderly Jewish man is walking down the street when he sudden slips and falls.

    People rush to help him, with one passer by rolling up his own coat to cradle the elderly Jewish man’s head.

    “Sir,” the man says. “We’re calling an ambulance. Are you comfortable?”

    The elderly Jewish man gives a weak shrug and says: “Eh. I make a living.”

  • From Struggles to Luxury: A Comedic Take

    A guy says to his shrink, “Before I got involved with drugs I had a loving family, a nice house and a decent car.”

    The shrink says, “And now?”

    The guy says, “Now I also have a private jet and a yacht.”

  • Polar Bear Identity Crisis!

    One afternoon in the Arctic, a father polar bear and his polar bear son were sitting in the snow. The cub turned to his father and said: “Dad, am I 100 percent polar bear?”

    “Of course, son” replied the father. “you are 100 percent polar bear”

    A few minutes later the cub turned to his father again and said: “Dad, tell me the truth, I can take it. Am I 100 percent polar bear? No brown bear or black bear or grizzly bear?”

    The father put a loving paw on the son’s head. “Son,” he said “I am 100 percent polar bear, your mother is 100 percent polar bear, so you are definitely 100 percent polar bear.”

    The cub seemed satisfied, but a few minutes later he turned to his father and once more said: “Look, Dad, I don’t want you saying this just to spare my feelings. I have to know: am I 100 percent polar bear?”

    By now the father is becoming distressed by the continual questioning and said: “Why do you keep asking if you are 100 percent polar bear?”

    The cub replied: “Because I’m freezing!!!”

  • Born without a chin

    Little Johnny’s mom sits him down before they go visit their neighbor who just had a baby boy.

    “Listen to me very carefully,” she says. “The poor baby was born without a chin because of a rare genetic condition. His mother is extremely sensitive about it. If you make even the tiniest comment about his chin, you are grounded for a whole month. Got it?”

    Johnny nods obediently.

    They arrive, chat for a while, and then Johnny turns to the new mom with a sweet smile and asks:

    “When your son grows up, will he move out of the house one day?”

    “Yes, of course, hopefully when he goes to college.”

    “Will he wash his own bedsheets?”

    “Well, who else is going to wash them? Yes.”

    “And will he iron them too?”

    “Yes, he’ll iron them.”

    “And put them away in the closet?”

    “Obviously, where else would they go?”

    “So, how is he going to fold them?”

  • How is your mother-in-law?

    I went to get a haircut the other day, and the barber kept asking me the same question over and over. As he’s cutting my hair, he says, “So, how’s your mother-in-law doing?”

    I shrugged and said, “She’s fine.”

    Five minutes later, he asks again, “So, how’s your mother-in-law?”

    Now I’m getting annoyed, but I answer, “I told you, she’s fine.”

    A few minutes after that, he asks yet again, “So, how is your mother-in-law doing?”

    I finally snap: “Dude, I already told you twice—she’s fine! Why do you keep asking about my mother-in-law?”

    He chuckles and says, “Oh, don’t worry, it’s not because I actually care. Every time I mention your mother-in-law, your hair stands straight up… and it makes it a lot easier for me to cut it!”

  • How’d you get the black eye?

    Two men are sitting next to each other on a train, both sporting black eyes. Naturally curious, the first man looks at the other and says, “So, how’d you get the black eye?”
    The other man replies, “Well, it was a Freudian slip.”
    “What’s that?” the first asks.
    “It’s when you mean to say one thing, but you accidentally say another that reveals what you’re really thinking,” explains the second.
    The first man nods. “Oh. So what happened?”
    “Well,” says the second, “I was buying my ticket for the train, and the woman at the counter had the biggest boobs I’d ever seen. So when I meant to say ‘two tickets to Pittsburgh,’ I accidentally said ‘two pickets to Tittsburgh’—hence the black eye.”
    The first guy laughs and says, “That’s funny, something similar happened to me. This morning, I was eating breakfast with my wife, and I meant to say ‘could you pass the jam,’ but I accidentally said, ‘you ruined my life, you stupid bitch!’”

  • A guy goes to the doctor

    A guy goes to the doctor and says “Doc, I feel really terrible the last day or two. My entire body aches, my vision and hearing are failing, I’m completely fatigued, and just feeling malaise overall.”

    The doctor says “We’re going to run some tests on you, come back tomorrow for the results.”

    The guy comes back the next day and the doctor says, “I have some very bad news. Please sit down.”

    He continues, “You have an extraordinarily rare disease, we believe it’s virus, but it’s so rare it doesn’t even have a name yet. This illness is ravaging your whole body – the nervous system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, reproductive system, all of the systems in your body are shutting down quite rapidly. The entire medical field is confounded by the sudden onset of this disease, and so far, researchers have found no treatment or cure. And I’m sorry to tell you this, but you have about 3 days to live, maybe less.”

    The man slumps over, fully in shock, and says “Oh my God, Doc. This can’t be happening. I’m young, I have a family, I have so much to live for. Is there ANYTHING that can be done?”

    The doc replies, “Again, and I’m so sorry to say this, but there is nothing we can do. You will be dead within days.”

    The man begins to shake and weep, crying “Please, doc, I have a wife and two young children. I can’t do this to them. My babies can’t grow up without a father. And my wife is the kindest, most loving person I’ve ever met, and neither of us have any living family members left. I can’t bear the thought of leaving her alone in the world to try and care for our children.”

    The man then begins to loudly sob, “PLEASE, doc, I’m BEGGING YOU, is there ANYTHING that can be done? An experimental drug or treatment? PLEASE, I will try ANYTHING!”

    The doctor says, “Well, there is one treatment I’ve heard about. I cannot vouch for it and I don’t believe there’s any research showing any efficacy.”

    The man’s eyes widen and he asks, “PLEASE TELL ME!”

    Doctor says, “Okay, there is a holistic spa just across town. This spa offers a unique type of mud bath, not unlike a mud mask used for skin care, except it is applied to the entire body. The mud is actually a type of mineral-rich clay that is only found in two areas of the world. If you leave my office right now, you should be able to get there in about five minutes and undergo the treatment.”

    The man asks through tears, “Is there a chance I will get better?”

    The doctor says, “No, but it will help you start getting used to the dirt.”

  • A man reaches the age of 100

    A man reaches the age of 100 and a news crew goes to see what his secret to long life is. The neighbor kids say “He’s always drinking on his front porch.” The local police say “we always have to pick him up from the bars for fighting.” The butcher says “He eats a pound of bacon from my store every day!” Finally they go to his house to interview him.

    Sure enough, his front lawn is strewn with cigarette butts and beer cans. The old man comes to the door, his face weathered and brown, with nicotine stains on his teeth, and the smell of bacon wafting out the door. But he’s walking, just a little slow, but really well for a 100 year old man.

    “Sir, how did you manage to live so long? It sounds like you have so many unhealthy habits, is there anything special you do?”.

    “Well, first, I bribed the pension office to say I was 75, so I could retire at 30. That was about thirty years ago.”

  • Little Johnny refused to study math

    Little Johnny refused to study math so his parents decided to put him in Catholic school and let the nuns fix the situation. Sure enough, Johnny came home after her very first day and went straight to his room to work on his math homework. Right after dinner, he went back to his room to study math, right up to bedtime. And even after bedtime, his parents found him working on math problems with a flashlight under his blanket.

    The next morning, while Johnny was working on math problems over breakfast, his baffled parents asked him why his new school had changed his attitude towards math so quickly. He answered with a terrified whisper:

    “When the nuns took us to chapel, I saw the guy they nailed to the plus sign…. I knew they weren’t joking around.”

  • Potential vs Reality

    A son tells his father he has a homework assignment due, and he can’t figure out how to complete it. The task is to explain the difference between theory and reality.

    The father instructs him: “Go ask your mom if she would have sex with a stranger for $1,000,000.”

    The mom says yes.

    Then the father tells him to ask his sister the same question.

    She also says yes.

    The father says, “There. You figured out the assignment. In theory, we live with two millionaires. In reality, we live with two sluts.”
