Uhm... that wasn't funny.

It wasn't meant to be.  I just made an observation.  Well... two.

Dude, the thread is for lame jokes.  You're making commentary, not jokes.  Anatess is making like you're trying to tell lame jokes and failing.

I have to admit, it's even funnier when you explain it.

Consider it a threadjack... that didn't take off.

So, a man was swallowed by a whale and escaped by running all the way to the end.  He finally got pooped out.

That was awful.  For him and me. ;)

Hey you start making comments about my observations on the periodic table, and this is what you get.

For Christmas:

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer died tonight while flying over Barcelona as he was hit by a flock of seagulls and a 747.  While a collision between all three bodies occurred, eyewitnesses reported that the reindeer in Spain was hit mainly by the plane.

When I am driving along with the kids and I see a dead deer on the side of the road, I think a cute thing to say is, "Looks like Santa got tired of Blitzen's crap."

What do you call a deer with no eyes?

No idea (no eye deer)

What do you call a deer with no eyes and no legs?

Still no idea

After church yesterday I was presented with a trifle which was left over from the children's Christmas party.

It looked something like this:

I took it to my wife who said "You know how long that trifle has been open in the refrigerator?"

(She tends to know these things: she is on the Parochial Church Council and usually helps out with most kids' activities.)

I said, "So you're a trifle reluctant to eat it?"

She told me to shut up. Naturally I didn't.

About 20 trifle-related puns later my wife and daughter were both hopping mad, so I asked: "Do I detect that you're getting a trifle annoyed?"

My family were now preparing to murder me.

So I asked them "Don't you think you're overreacting a trifle?"

What a trifling thing it was to argue about!

Somebody who eats a trifle with a trifle is not to be trifled with.

Did you know that in the Nauvoo temple they were originally considering using angels in the baptistery instead of oxen?

 

 

 

They decided to go with a sans seraph font.

I read somewhere that they almost went with an elefont.

 

I think that would have been fontastic.
