Silly Joke #1

It was Palm Sunday and Little Johnny had a sore throat so he stayed home from church with a babysitter. When the family returned home, they were carrying several palm branches. The boy asked them what they were. “People held them over Jesus’ head as He walked by,” his father told him.“Wouldn’t you know it!!!” Little Johnny fumed. “The one Sunday I don’t go and Jesus finally shows up.”

Silly Joke #2

A young man watched as an elderly couple sat down to lunch at McDonald’s. He noticed that they had ordered just one meal, and an extra drink cup. As he watched, the old gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries, one for him, one for her, etc, until each had exactly half. Then the old man poured half of the soft drink into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The old man then began to eat, but his wife just sat watching him. The young man felt sorry for them and asked “I’m sorry to intrude, but would you allow me to purchase another meal for your wife so that you don’t have to split your food?” The old gentleman said, “Oh, no, thank you. But you see, we’ve been married a long time, and everything has always been shared, 50/50.” The young man said, “Wow! That’s commendable.” He then turned to the wife and asked, “Aren’t you going to eat your share?”  The wife replied “Not yet. It’s his turn to use the teeth.”

Silly Joke #3

Little Johnny was assigned a paper on childbirth and asked his parents, “How was I born?” “Well honey…” said the slightly prudish parent, “the stork brought you to us.” “Oh,” said Little Johnny. “Well, how did you and daddy get born?” he asked. “Oh, the stork brought us too.” “Well how were grandpa and grandma born?” he persisted. “Well darling, the stork brought them too!” said the parent, by now starting to squirm a little in the recliner. Several days later, Little Johnny handed in his paper to the teacher who read with confusion the only sentence on it: “This paper was impossible to write because there hasn’t been a natural childbirth in my family for three generations!”

Bonus Silly Joke

An old man is sitting on his porch when he sees a young boy walking down the street dragging something behind him. He calls out to the boy, “Hey son, what you got there?” to which the boy replies, “It’s duct tape, I’m gonna go catch me some ducks.” The old man laughs and he calls out, “You fool, you can’t catch ducks with duct tape!” The little boy laughs and continues on his way, returning a few short hours later, and behind him, he is dragging 8 ducks, all wrapped up in the duct tape. The old man can’t believe his eyes. The next day, the old man is sitting on his porch again and along comes the little boy dragging something behind him. When the old man asks what he’s got this time, the boy replies, “It’s a spool of chicken wire, I’m going to catch some chickens in it.” Well the old man begins to laugh quite hard, telling the boy, “You fool, you can’t catch chickens with chicken wire.” The boy laughs himself, and says back, “That’s what you said about the duct tape,” and he continues on his way, with the old man laughing like crazy. A few hours later the old man is surprised to see the boy coming back, and even more shocked to see that behind him he is dragging 10 chickens, all tangled up in the chicken wire, he can’t believe his eyes again. The next day, the old man is sitting there wondering what the little boy will be up to next, and sure enough he sees him coming down the street with something in his hand. He calls out to the boy, “Hey son, what you go there today?” The boy responds, “It’s a pussy willow.” The man then replies, “Hang on son, I’ll get my hat!”
