In summary: It's a humor that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness. It's not for everyone.Not a fan of surrealism, I take it?In summary, surrealism is an art form that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness, often producing incongruous imagery or effects. It may not be appreciated by everyone, but for those who do, it can be quite humorous.

From Historian Mary Beard, (awesome lady) I recently learned that many jokes from Ancient Rome are preserved Perhaps lame by today's standards, though I rather like them:

http://www.theguardian.com/books/2009/mar/13/roman-joke-book-beard

...Beard's favourite joke is a version of the Englishman, Irishman, Scotsman variety, with a barber, a bald man and an absent-minded professor taking a journey together. They have to camp overnight, so decide to take turns watching the luggage. When it's the barber's turn, he gets bored, so amuses himself by shaving the head of the professor. When the professor is woken up for his shift, he feels his head, and says "How stupid is that barber? He's woken up the bald man instead of me."

My favorite:
Another "identity" joke sees a man meet an acquaintance and say "it's funny, I was told you were dead". He says "well, you can see I'm still alive." But the first man disputes this on the grounds that "the man who told me you were dead is much more reliable than you".

When chemists die, they barium.

Saw this while surfing the net. It's supposed to be a pun, but I don't get it. Been thinking for a while, still nothing. Looks like my General Chemistry I and II aren't enough for me to get this.

It so is. Somewhere upthread, there's a picture of Chemistry Cat (a Blofeld type furry cat in glasses and a labcoat) telling it, which is even lamer.

What can I say ? the youngest at that time now reached late 40s and all others middle to late 50s. But true, Na has always been an exciting chemical element to play with in high school, from which kind of sick but beautiful concoctions can be obtained by multiple reactions with not one, but many other metals.

That reminds me.

What was the owl's telephone extension number?
2820
This assumes you pronounce "0" as "oh"

(That also works for PIN number.)

Two eight two oh isn't too far from twit twoo.

Psinter - this is the canonical noise of an owl in English, although many don't make anything like this sound.

First Mate: "Captain! Enemy ship on the horizon, approaching fast!"
Captain: "Cabin Boy! Fetch me my Red Coat."
First Mate: "I've always wondered Captain, why the red coat when we go into battle?"
Captain: "So the enemy can't see my blood stains."

First Mate: "Captain! Twenty more enemy ships on the horizon, approaching fast!"
Captain: "Cabin Boy! Fetch me my Brown Pants."

Wait wait.

Twit twoo isn't the same as a wolf whistle, is it?

 
  • #2,799
Similar, although more mating call than sexual harassment. There's an mp3 at the link I provided.

Edit: ...or was that a "whistling at the birds" joke I missed?

This is not a science joke, but I can't find Lame jokes now. The search function doesn't work on mobile.

Why do fat people envy elephants?
Because if the elephant weights 200kg he is considered underweight.
