My dad keeps sending me stupid jokes by e-mail. Most of the time this is annoying but occasionally some gems come through. This is a collection of Tommy Cooper's but I can equally imagine the drawl of Steven Wright saying the same lines.
Two aerials meet on a roof, fall in love, get married. The ceremony was rubbish but the reception was brilliant.
Man goes to the doctors with a Strawberry growing out of his head. Doctor says "I'll give you some cream to put on it"
A man takes his rottweiler to the vet. "My dog's cross-eyed, is there anything you can do for him?" "Well" says the vet, "let's have a look at him".
So he picks the dog up and examines his eyes, then checks his teeth. Finally he says "I'm going to have to put him down."
"What? because he's cross-eyed?" "No, because he's really heavy"
"Doctor, I can't pronounce my F's, T's and H's." "Well, you can't say fairer than that then"
So I went to the dentist. He said "Say Aaaah." I said "Why". He said "Because my dog's died"
I got home and the phone was ringing. I picked it up and said "Who's speaking please?" and a voice answered "you are"
I rang up my local swimming baths and said "is that the local swimming baths?" He said "it depends where you're calling from"
I rang up a local building firm "I want a skip outside my house", he said "I'm not stopping you"
Apparently 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese. There are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or dad, or my older brother Colin, or my younger brother Ho-Cha-Chu, but I think it's Colin.
I was in my car driving along and my boss rang up and said "You've been promoted" and I swerved. He rang a second time "You've been promoted again" and I swerved again. He rang up a third time and said "You're managing director" and I went into a tree. A policeman came up and said "what happened to you?" and I replied "I careered off the road"
So I was getting into my car and this bloke says to me "Can you give me a lift?" I said "Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it"
Two cannibals eating a clown. One says to the other "Does this taste funny to you?"
A man walked into the doctors. The doctor said "I haven't seen you in a long time" The man replied "I know, I've been ill"
A man walked into the doctors and said "I've hurt my arm in several places" The doctor said "Well don't go to those places"
I had a ploughman's lunch the other day. He wasn't very happy.
I bought some HP sauce the other day. It's costing me 6p a month for the next two years.
A man came round in hospital after a serious accident. He shouted "Doctor, doctor, I can't feel my legs" The doctor replied "I know you can't, I've cut your arms off"
I went to a seafood disco last week and pulled a mussel.
Our ice cream man was found lying on the floor of his van covered with hundreds and thousands. Police say he topped himself.
Two fat blokes in a pub, one says to the other "Your round". The other one says "so are you, you fat b*****d"

I didn't see Tommy kick it but I came close to dying of laughter reading these...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE old jokes.
Tommy Cooper's best in my opinion doesn't work that well written down as I am about to prove.
ReplyDeleteHe walks on stage and instead of a fez he is wearing a hat made to look like a huge packet of cough sweets.
He makes no mention of it until about half way through the act he glances up and utters the immortal phrase:
'I've had this tune running through my head all day.'
Blinding.
