Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted August 1 Paid Members Share Posted August 1 One of my favourites was a few years ago. I was round at my parents' and my mum said "Just nipping out to buy some flowers' for your nanna's grave, it's her birthday tomorrow." Without a second's thought my dad replied, "Are you taking her anywhere nice?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted August 1 Paid Members Share Posted August 1 Two reoccurring jokes I always make that amuse me and annoy my girlfriend ”I’ve got half a chicken in the kitchen” ”Who’s Arthur Chicken?” It’s usually food based but we’ve had Arthur Hour and Arthur Finger recently (friends dad told us he nearly lost half a finger when he was younger). If somethings not working properly and she says for example “the TVs being funny” I always say “telling jokes is it”. I understand how irritating I am I’ve shamelessly stolen a joke from Ricky Gervais from the XFM radio days. If Johnny Cash is ever mentioned, I always say “Johnny Cash, change for the condom machine” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 1 Paid Members Share Posted August 1 Whenever our bowls team is playing a match at home I'll always put a message on saying I'm available to play, but I'll need a lift (I live at the pub where the bowling green is) and two seasons in people are finally not biting and replying with "you know we're playing at home, right?" Further to this we were at home on Tuesday night and had a full team, so when I got out the Captain says to me "I hope you don't mind not playing tonight, but we've got a full team." to which I replied "I've come all this way for nothing. Thanks." which got a laugh, and somebody even said "make sure you let us know when you get home." I did end up playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scratch Posted August 1 Paid Members Share Posted August 1 I honestly don’t know how I’m still married, I must drive my wife mad with this sort of stuff. I always, without fail, blow a raspberry whenever she bends down to pick something up. And I’m not fussed if it’s at home or in public. When she’s describing what she’s going to wear for a night out and tells me that she’s not going to wear tights as she’d rather have bare legs, I’ll always reply “Like Winnie the Pooh?” If she says “can you put some milk on the shopping list?” I’ll write “some milk” on it. I’ll also always sneak something on the list like “ball bag cream” if she’s going shopping alone. If she asks “Have you seen the cat?” I can’t reply with anything other than “yeah, loads of times.” If you like shit jokes, I’ve written two books that are available to buy on Amazon ?

Paid Members waters44 Posted August 1 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 1 I remember being in the truck with Dad and all of a sudden he shouted “ the magic tractor!! Right in front of us!!”. Cue a rush of adrenaline that was coursing around my body at the thought of being lucky enough to follow a magic tractor, whatever that is. The tractor starts indicating and Dad says “here we go! Keep watching! He’s…. He’s…. He’s turned into a field! Magic!”. First time I was properly whooshed Loving the play on words in the thread. The only one I’ve got is occasionally walking into where my wife’s working, stand by the window and say “Crikey look at the rain!”. She will then stand up and say “Where?” to which I reply “ahh you just missed her” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro_y Disco Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 22 hours ago, ReturnOfTheMack said: Not long after I met my now wife I got her with a terrible joke that still makes me laugh, and makes her irritated. This reminds me, not far outside Bridlington there's a field by the side of the road with usually just one horse in it. I said to my wife who was driving, "Look, there's the prize winning horse!" I didn't expect her to bite on such an oldie, but she responded with genuine intrigue "How do you know it's prize winning?" "It's out standing in its field!" Pointing out the prize winning horse is now a requirement every time we go past, even when there's other people in the car who just think we're weird.

"No" "What, not even if they're really close to your face?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 If my mum or someone ever says something like 'I had a Chinese last night' I will by reflex respond with 'and how did he feel about that?' because I'm an awful person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SuperBacon Posted August 2 Members Share Posted August 2 Just unlocked a core memory of when stoned as a teen, I said something like "Oh there's a bit of thread on my shirt" and my friend Dave replied "Where's the rest of him?" WAHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY. It was the funniest thing I'd ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members gmoney Posted August 2 Paid Members Share Posted August 2 If there's any unexpected noise in the flat, be it something dropped, something knocked, a cough, sneeze, fart, car horn from outside, thunder, dog barking heard through the wall, I will say "come in!" As if someone has knocked on the door. I do not do it if someone has knocked on the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members waters44 Posted August 2 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 2 That’s hilarious! It reminds me of my wife’s late Grandad. He used to let one go and say “Put your foot on that one Joyce while I get a stone from the garden”. I don’t know why it’s funny but it is He also told me once that he was annoyed his old car was slow and only goes up to 70. I said “that’s alright isn’t it?” and he replied with “well I live at number 92”. I’ve stolen that one a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted August 2 Paid Members Share Posted August 2 There was a story of a famous old British actor (can't for the life of me recall whom) who, whenever there was a big, noisy accident, like someone dropping a load of glasses in a pub, he'd wait a beat and then yell "And stay out!" I have nicked this on many occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
