I think in most jokes make fun of some type of person or group or profession.
Feel free to add PC jokes

The adult stuff can be a little "touchy" sometimes (IMO) but what is posted here is usually pretty mild.

Just my 2¢ worth... My opinions are not necessarily the opinions of early-retirement.org.

I feel that this site, and especially this joke forum is for people of the generation that grew up when things could be funny and people did not get offended at the drop of a hat and you didn't have to worry about hurting someone's feelings 50 times a day.

If you're so worried about someone getting offended, maybe have the first page of the thread edited with a disclaimer about adult humor - read at your
own risk.

If you are personally offended, find boring jokes elsewhere.

Personally I love this thread. Keep the jokes coming!

I would amend the above for 70s kid,
4) Saturday was chores day for us.
6) Telephones were “party line” connection. You had to pick up and listen to see if any of your neighbors was using the shared line. This one I still can’t believe we had phones line li,e that. Crazy

I know a lot of people with your attitude, even family. Lots of jokes about queers, stupid minorities, dumb women, idiot foreigners. But why say anything? Just go along to get along. It ain't hurting nobody. Don't be a killjoy, it is only a joke. But I wasn't raised to look the other way and promoting these ugly stereotypes does have real consequences on individuals and on society in general.

So, I'm not so much offended as disgusted. If you want to participate in perpetuating denigration, that's your right. As for me, silence is implied agreement and I do not agree.

We had a party line until I was about 10 years old... The lady that we shared the line with, was in sales.... Phone was always busy.

I was born in England, went to Australia as a teen, and came to Canada 56 years ago next week.....I've told jokes about (among others) Brits, Ockers, and Canucks, (and Yarpies, 'cause I've also known South Africans).....my oldest friend, of close to 54 years now, was born in an internment camp for Japanese in British Columbia - I've had Jewish friends, black friends, Chinese friends, gay/lesbian friends...yadda, yadda, yadda.

I used to tell a lot of jokes when I was in a different environment, (not so much now since it's just DW and me 'cause she's heard most of them)...they were jokes...they weren't attacks on anyone and I'm sorry if you feel slighted....but I'm afraid that you're just not that special.

Added: When I went back to school I had a part time job loading freight cars.....the vast majority of my coworkers were 'Newfies' (from Newfoundland)...they'd tell each other Newfie jokes.

Oh..and above I neglected to mention the Irish...the Irish and the Scots, (and the Germans, and the....), probably have more jokes told about them (and by them) than anyone except the Jews.....jokes told by Jewish comedians for Jewish audiences.

I'm not a pilot...But, I'll take a guess... Prop blade on backwards or someone left their bag on the engine? Maybe? If not, heck if I know.

The engine cylinder halfway through the cowling is a clue that all is not well in the engine compartment.

That looked like a bag sitting there to me... But a protruding cylinder would be a hint something is wrong.

Probably ran a little rough, too.

Poker players are always looking for a "sign". (The tell)


That's the last of my newest cache of jokes that I can post for now.

In the spirit of Nemo's comments:

Told to me by a Jew, in Israel, during an "animated" negotiation.

You know what you get with 3 Jews in the room? 4 opinions.

Most people understand this as a joke.

And, by the way, the joke teller was on the side of the arguing parties.
