The original Best Jokes thread has become too big and so has been difficult to manage effectively. Therefore I have closed the old thread and opened a new one, this time dated so it can be closed at the end of the year and a new one opened in the new year. That way the threads remain manageable and won’t break the forum.
A word about the moderation policy for the “best jokes” thread; As previously stated on the old thread, there is a such a diversity of ethnicity, background, and culture here, that what may well be deemed funny by some may well be seen as quite the opposite, or indeed quite offensive by others. So, barring any so-called jokes that may either breach forum rules, or that are deemed incontrovertibly unacceptable by the mods, it’s otherwise down to you the members to ultimately decide for yourselves what is or what isn’t acceptable. Therefore, any member can flag up a joke as unacceptable and there’s a high likelihood that it will be removed. This is a hifi forum first and foremost, but always remember that it also has Naim’s name to it. Thanks.
I have reread it yet again, and even with your kind inputs still do not get it.
Being autistic I take thing literally, so I do not see or pick up on any symbolism, allegory, metaphor and subtext.
I just read it has a question being asked and an answer given. No clue as to leaving the letter G out of the boy’s name.
It was a poor joke referencing the spelling of the boys name. Angus was glad that there was a letter G in the alphabet, otherwise his name may have been Anus. I must admit it took me a while to see it and even then I didn’t smile.
A French general and an American general are on a battlefield
Suddenly, the American general takes a bullet in the arm, and begins to bleed profusely. He screams: "Sergeant, bring me my red jacket! The French general, surprised, asked him the reason for such a request.
“It’s so that my men don’t see that I’m hurt and that they keep hope…” A bullet then brushes the head of the Frenchman, who manages to narrowly avoid it. He immediately screams: "Sergeant that they bring me my brown pants! ".
