Jokes What’s more difficult to translate than a joke? Two jokes! If there is one thing that is difficult to translate, it's jokes. Although, they can provide a nice five-minute break.

Talking Jokes

Hi everyone!
In all the forums I've ever been to in my life, there is always a Jokes thread. And yes, I'll start one here too

Of course, no offensive jokes allowed!

Here are a few that I remember, with words. I can't remember any in Spanish!

"The teacher asked the second grade to make a sentence with the word "fascinate" and James put his hand up.
-Ok - said the teacher - What's your sentence?
-My jacket has 9 buttons - said James - but I can only fasten 8!"

"What's a fish without an eye?
A fsh!"

"Where does the bull take the cow on their first date?
To the mooooovies"

Well, as Vero open the door, I enter :

"All marriages are happy--it's the living together afterward that causes all the problems."

"Q: What's the main difference between intelligence and ignorance?
A: I don't know and I don't care!"

Sorry about that.. jajajaja..

Fresh jokes :

"What is a runner's favourite subject in school?
Jog-raphy! "

and the second one :

"Psychiatrist: What's your problem?
Patient: I think I'm a chicken.
Psychiatrist: How long has this been going on?
Patient: Ever since I was an egg!"

Have a good day !!
