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.

Wink The ladies of the nursing home

Jane and Arlene, two elderly ladies, are outside their nursing home, having a drink and a smoke.
When it starts to rain. Jane pulls out a condom, cuts off the end, puts it over her cigarette,
and continues smoking.

Arlene: What in the hell is that?

Jane: A condom. This way my cigarette doesn't get wet.

Arlene: Where did you get it?

Jane: You can get them at any drugstore.

The next day, Arlene hobbles herself into the local drugstore and announces to the pharmacist that she wants a box of condoms.

The pharmacist, obviously embarrassed, looks at her kind of strangely (she is after all, over 80 years of age), but very delicately asks what brand of condom she prefers.

'Doesn't matter Sonny, as long as it fits on a Camel.'


The pharmacist fainted.

Default Re: The ladies of the nursing home

Your right Frank, I have heard that one before. If you like police jokes one of my favorites came out just after the 2004 Superbowl halftime fiasco.

1st Officer: "Guess who I pulled over in a traffic stop the other day?"
2nd Officer: "Who?"
1st Officer: "Janet Jackson!"
2nd Officer: "What she do, was she speeding?"
1st Officer: "Nah, she had one headlight out."

For a more cerebral joke:

What do you call a clairvoyant midget who escaped from prison?
A small medium at large.


I doubt I'll get the haha's you get but perhaps a titter from the audience?

Joel

Default Re: The ladies of the nursing home

uhmm... the forum’s official joker ...?
Can’t you think of something else ?
Hope it was meant as a compliment ...
no worries mate ! just joking (as a joker is expected to !)

I love the small medium at large
(yet it’s a very very sad story ...)


disfrutamos el camino
un saludo,
Frank.

Of course it was meant as a joke, Frank! (sorry for the delay)

My contribution to this thread:

A police recruit was asked during the exam, "What would you do if you had to arrest your own mother?"
He said: "Call for backup."
