    If those are the best jokes then most of the people involved should stick to the day job.
    They're all at about my level of inspiration while shopping at St Sprees on an average day. The difference is the only career I do it for is through the door as quick as poss.

    Thing is, if you're observant - like me - you'll see something in everyday life, at least one thing, that is funny, or at least smileworthy.

    I did consider starting a thread on this - what did you see that tickled you today? - then decided it might spoil people's fun on here.

      I did at least smile inwardly for a few seconds at your St Sprees story, though it didn't crack me up.

        The number of times I've read something in a message on this forum which has left me doubled up with laughter, only to come back later to find that no follow-on poster has managed to see the funny side.....!

          Q: at a 4 way intersection, if 4 vehicles arrive simultaneously, which has the right of way?
          A: the pickup truck with the gun rack and the bumper sticker which states "guns don't kill people. I do."

            I thought you were going to say: the cat!

                  In California they have turn outs on the roads down mountains, such as in Yosemite and Kings Canyon. There is a rule that if there are vehicles queuing behind that the front vehicle should turn off into an available turn out. For a long while I was driven into these by pickup drivers, but one day, after months of practice I managed to drive a pickup off into the turn out! Great feeling - at least for a while!

                    An amateur magician accidentally turns his wife into a settee and his two kids into armchairs. He starts to panic. He tries every trick in book but none work so, in desperation, he decides to take them to hospital.

                    Once at casualty, the magician spends a sleepless night while the medical staff run numerous tests on the unfortunate woman and children.

                    Finally, the head doctor comes out into the corridor to speak to the magician.

                    "How are my family?" he asks worriedly, "are they alright?"

                    The doctor replies, "they're comfortable..."

                        "I'm a witch", she tells him, putting a hand on his thigh.

                        He immediately turned into a lay-by.

                            You beat me to it, mercs!

                            There was a couple of others in the running that made me smile

                            "What's the difference between a 'hippo' and a 'Zippo'? One is really heavy, the other is a little lighter"

                            "Clowns divorce. Custardy battle"
                            "...the isle is full of noises,
                            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                                Yeah, and what about a lesson in hip-ology? (This one comes courtesy of Buckley and Marx - quality!)*
