Bad Jokes

I spent all weekend with my crazy friends and one of the recurring conversations was bad jokes. These are some friends who I hung out with in high school so reunions are often about reverting back to that time—and that sense of humour.

James sent me the following joke, and I’m going to share it only because I’m stuck in my 16-year-old brain this morning.

A man goes to his doctor and tells him, “I’ve had the song ‘What’s New Pussycat’ stuck in my head for weeks, and it’s driving me crazy.”
The doctor says, “Well, I think you may have Tom Jones disease.”
The man says, “I’ve never heard of that. Is it rare?”
The doctor says, “It’s not unusual.”

Come on, it’s old but still funny.

Happy Monday.

Why are bad jokes so funny? Are they funny because they’re so bad they’re good? All I can say is that I have this big grin on my face upon reading your joke. And now Tom Jones is dancing on my head. Some bloggers put up inspirational quotes to break the monotony of their blog topics. Others put interesting images. Maybe you should do something like a Bad Joke Friday thing. Bet it’s going to crack a lot of people up.

BOOOOO

LOL. For sure, I should add a bad jokes section. Perhaps on Mondays when people need a good bad joke.

A man walks into a doctor’s office and says, “I need your help, doctor. I think I’m a moth.”
The doctor says, “You don’t need a doctor. You need a psychiatrist.”
The man says, “I know. But your light was on.”
