Any good jokes ... ?

Really, really annoyed. Just got a ticket for undertaking on the M3. Didn't realise it was Charles and Camilla with a police escort travelling slowly in the middle lane. I was in a hurry so went down the inside to take the next exit. Blue lights and a motorcycle cop stops me short. He just looked at me and wrote the ticket. 'But why? says I. 'Sorry mate', says the cop, 'but you passed the Duchy on the left hand side'.

That doesn't work, as the Duchy consists of the land and holdings, not the actual person who is the Duke of Cornwall.

Even the joke about why Prince Charles likes to sail to Cornwall via the English Channel and not the Bristol Channel is questionable, as the county of Cornwall != the Duchy of Cornwall, and the Duchy has as much land outside of Cornwall as inside it.

Good thing you didn't over analyse that joke, otherwise any vestige of humour might have been sucked from it.

Sometimes, the act of deliberately sucking the humour from a joke can be funny itself.

Can be, that wasn't.

Love a bit of terrible photoshop. The lack of effort makes the joke somehow funnier.

On a beautiful summer’s day, two English tourists were driving through Wales.

At Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch they stopped for lunch and one of the tourists asked the waitress: “Before we order, I wonder if you could settle an argument for us. Can you pronounce where we are, very, very, very slowly?”

The girl leaned over and said:

“Burrr… gurrr… King.”

Inspired by Benb, I must ask,
A waitress in Burger King?
A Burger King in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch?

If only there was a word to describe the joy I'm feeling at Germany crashing out of the World Cup...

He said 'are you mad at her?'
I said "Don't you start"

I have a Polish friend who's a sound engineer.

I have a Czech one two.

I have a Polish friend who's a sound engineer.
I have a Czech one two.

Why do sound engineers test microphones with “one two one two?”
Cos “One two three”’s for lifting flight cases...
