Q: Can you tell me a bad joke?

Siri: Two iPhones walk into a bar ... I forget the rest.

Sitting Bull had to ride a rental Ox while his Bison was in the shop.

After a few days, he noticed the interior of his thighs were getting chapped.

He paused one day and thought to himself ; " This is quite the corundum, I have a fond emory of sitting on something smoother than an oxide ".
