humour This guy walked into a bar..

Something said this morning reminded me of a joke I used to tell back in the day when my skirts were shorter and the only typing I did was under duress from a stern Afrikaans teacher who had a propensity to whack me over the fingers with a ruler..

And upon remembering this joke I thought about sharing it only to come to a cruel reality that it just wouldn’t be as funny today as it was then! Why? I dunno really.. I think that people are less impressed by things and walk around with an attitude of been there-done that mostly. No one sees the funny side of life half as much as they used to and slapstick is very UnPC. I however laugh at EVERYTHING and am often found laughing at EVERYONE too. I spend most of my time looking for the next giggle.. creating my own if need be.

Am I the only one that has noticed this? Are we soo jaded that a simple joke will leave us waiting for the punchline long after it has been delivered? I hope I never forget my ability to laugh at the simple things and never lose my smile.

Just for interests sake here is the joke I remembered this morning.. Would you laugh if someone told this joke to you today?

Van Der Merwe was a notorious Bank Robber. He was feared by many and took the cash from the tellers with ease.

His Modus Operandi was to walk into the bank drop his trousers and SHOUT out “WHO WANTS TO FIGHT WITH THE BULLDOG!?” What met the crowd was a an ordinary looking man with an extraordinary penis, his penis was soo large it was bigger than both his legs combined and was soo muscular it pulsated with energy between his legs. It scared everyone into surrender. No one wanted to see what the “bulldog” was capable of!! Ppl were soo frightened that if they were asked afterwards what he looked like no one could recollect, his penis got a lot of mention though..

And so Van Der Merwe went from bank to bank, dropping his trousers and asking “WHO WANTS TO FIGHT WITH THE BULLDOG!?”. Each and everytime no one messed with him or his “Bulldog” and just handed over the money which he promptly collected and left with.

Until the one day Van Der Merwe walked into the FNB situated in the heart of Orkney. He walked in, dropped his drawers and shouted “WHO WANTS TO FIGHT WITH THE BULLDOG!?” .. Gasping was heard  all round.. when suddenly the room cleared to the left and a Dik Tannie (Thick Aunty) stomped forward.. grinning from ear to ear, lifted her blue and yellow sundress/tent and said “VAT HOM FLUFFY!!!”

    :oops: I smiled not laughed but I am having a sloooow day had to read the punch line twice b4 I got it (sad so sad) – was maybe fixated on the idea of a large muscular pulsating penis :lol:

    in honesty I very rarely laugh at jokes – the unobvious is what gets me rolling

    Barbs – twice??!?! Crap.. its worse than I thought then!! BUt I must admit the part about the large muscular pulsating penis is a tad distracting ;-)

    C – smile… I am starting to think the penis part is distracting you ladies too much.. Back to the drawing board with me..

    OK, it wasn’t a ROTFL session or even a LOL, but there was definately a snigger behind my grin :-)
    Not a bad effort, B.
    Reminds me of a joke an ex-malefriend used to tell that always had me rolling around with laughter … although maybe it had more to do with the accompanying action than the punchline. But that’s another story ;-)
