This joke is not funny



Did you invent your name just to respond to my thread? or is it just coincidental?

Care to throw a joke in that you think is better?

A friend of mine had his credit card stolen recently but decided not to report it because the thief was spending less than his wife did.

OK. It's a long one. And it goes something like this.

One day a young Rabbi decided to take a walk in the enchanted forest of the Trids, which he did from time to time as the Trids were kind and friendly people as was the Rabbi and they would laugh and play among the trees.

But on this particular day the Rabbi couldn't find any of his Trid friends out and about the woods and this confused and worried him for Trids were normally quite eager to play and laugh with thim in the forest - they being kind and friendly people. So he walked over to the Trid village and began knocking on doors, peering in windows, and looking under rocks untill finally he found his particular friend Geoff. "Geoff," asked the Rabbi, "Where are all of the Trids today?"

Geoff answered, "We're hiding Rabbi. The giant from the hills has stomped into the forest and if he spots any of us he'll pick us up and kick us into the next forest."

Now the Rabbi had never heard of such a thing but as Trids had never lied to him in the past and since he did hear a stomping noise in the distance he quickly looked for a place to hide. Which wasn't easy as The Rabbi was a good two hands taller than the tallest Trid and most of the hiding places in town were decidedly Trid sized.

And so the Rabbi wound up cowering behind a Lilac bush (the best cover he could find) as the giant came stomping into town occasionally pushing aside a tree or a rock or a tiny trid cottage to pick up a Trid and punt it into the next forest. Slowly the giant made it's way closer and closer to the Rabbi cowering behind the lilac bush.

But all of his hiding was to no avail as the giant could plainly see the Rabbi behind the bush and the giant walked over to the Rabbi and said, "Hello, young Rabbi. What are you doing in the forest of the Trids today."

The Rabbi, rather startled at the civility of the question, answered, "Taking a walk to see my friends the Trids which you are busily launching into the next forest with your foot. By the way why haven't you picked me up and kick me away yet like you have the others?"

The giant laughed and said, "Silly Rabbi, kicks are for Trids."

Never heard either of those jokes before, no joke. MY favorite joke has got to be the one with fruits and gibbons...you know the one I mean...

I think a little chaos is in order.

For me it's a tie...

and...

What did Pippin do when he got drunk? He began to feel merry.
