Tardy JOW #1206

 Last week I was early and hasty because I was going on a little one-week vacation to the Smoky

Mountains.  This week I am a bit tardy for the same reason.  That gave me my theme: tardiness.

And if any of you are interested in the burgeoning entertainment cluster of the

Gatlinburg/Pidgeon Forge Tennessee area, let me know and I will forward you my writeup.  

Here are my jokes of the week.

 

What's the difference between having a latte and being late.

Whether or not you have time for ‘t’

 

What did the guy who got fired for always being late say?

It was just a matter of time.

 

Boss: This is the third time you've been late for work this week. Do you know what that means?

Employee: That it's only Wednesday

 

Me: Sorry for being late, I was having some computer issues.

Boss: Hard drive?
Me: No, the commute was fine. It was my laptop.

 

I bought a sail for my boat on Amazon the other day. Today it dawned on me that it's not the right size so I called to cancel. They said it's too late.

That sail has shipped.

 

I was 16 minutes late for my first math lecture, eight minutes late for the second, and four minutes late for the third.

At this rate, I’ll never be there on time.

 

A physics professor decided to give a student individual lessons as punishment for always being late. He was instructed to arrive half an hour before class started.

“Remember”, the professor said, “if you’re on time, you’re late, but if you’re early, you’re on time”.

The next morning, the student dashed straight to class, making it there exactly a half hour before class started, and unsure if this counted as being late.
“I’m here professor, what’s the lesson about?” he asked.
“Well, it’s about time.”

 

Boss: You're four hours late! What's the matter?

Employee: I fell from the 2nd floor this morning.
Boss: That's 20 feet.   It shouldn't take you more than five seconds!

 

What's ironic about being late to your Optometrist appointment?

They can't see you.

 

A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and to give a little speech at the dinner.
However, he was delayed, so the Priest decided to say his own few words while they waited:
'I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his best friend’s wife, and taken illegal drugs. I was appalled. But as the days went on, I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people.'...
Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately began to make the presentation and gave his talk:
'I'll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived,' said the politician. 'In fact, I had the honor of being the first person to go to him for confession.'
Moral: Never, Never, Never Be Late!

 

Late one night a police officer was patrolling a desolate area popular with young couples doing more than just sitting in the dark.

Catching his attention was a couple in a car with the interior light on. Moving closer, the cop could see a young man behind the steering wheel reading a newspaper. In the backseat a young blonde was knitting.
The lawman walked up to the vehicle and knocked on the driver-side window. The startled lad rolled it down and said, “Yes, Officer?”
“What are you doing?” the cop asked.
“Isn’t it obvious?” the young man replied. “I’m reading today’s newspaper.”
Pointing to the blonde in the backseat, the policeman grunted, “And what’s she doing?”
“I believe she’s knitting a sweater,” the guy behind the wheel responded.
“How old are you?” the cop inquired.
“I’m 22, Officer.”
“And the girl—how old is she?”
The dude in the driver’s seat looked at his watch and said, “She’ll turn 18 in ten minutes.”

 

And finally:

An older man is finally able to leave the Soviet Union in the late 1980s for the first time in his life.  His wife and son had already left and settled in the States, and at last he was able to go and join them.
On his way out through the Soviet border, the guard looks through his luggage and finds a bust of Lenin.
"What is this?" he asks.
"Don't ask me *what* this is, ask me *who* this! This is Vladimir Lenin, the great hero that fought for the rights of the people in our country, and I'm bringing him with me to remind myself to continue that battle in America!"
The guard lets him through, and he is able to go on the plane to America. Once he arrives, the American border guard goes through his luggage and finds the bust of Lenin.
"What is this?" he asks.
"Don't ask me *what* this is, ask me *who* this! This is Vladimir Lenin, the fiendish monster who destroyed my beautiful homeland! I am bringing him with me to remind myself the mistakes of the past."
The guard lets him through, and he is able to go into the country, where he takes a taxi to the house his wife and son are staying. After reuniting with them, the son sees the bust of Lenin, and asks, "Papa, who is this?"
The man smiles and says, "my son, don't ask me *who* this is, ask me *what* this! This, my son, is 18 pounds of gold!"

 

Hasty JOW #1205

 

I had to kinda throw this JOW together due my grueling schedule of parties, plays, hunting, and vacation trips.  You may remember a few of these jokes; or perhaps are suppressing them.  Anyway, here are a few jokes

Let me start with some quick ones.

 

·         What falls, but never needs a bandage? The rain.

·         I was going to tell you a joke about boxing but I forgot the punch line.

·         Why did the egg hide? It was a little chicken.

·         What did the dirt say to the rain? If you keep this up, my name will be mud!

·         Why couldn't the sunflower ride its bike? It lost its petals.

·         I ate a clock yesterday. It was very time-consuming.

·         Why did the cow jump over the moon? The farmer had cold hands.

·         What do you call a pudgy psychic? A four-chin teller.

·         We know why the turtle crossed the road.  To get to the Shell station.

·         Who picks up guide dog poop?

·         I no longer ‘seize the day’.  It’s more like poking it with a stick.

 

 

If Elon Musk's space company establishes a Mars colony, and you have a girlfriend on Mars, but break up because of long distance, she'd be your....Space X.

 

English is strange.  The three ‘c’s in Pacific Ocean are all pronounced differently.  It’s a wonder any of us can read.

 

I sometimes use big words that I don’t know the meaning of to make me seem more perpendicular   

 

An inspirational quote:

Believe in yourself, even if no one else does - Big Foot.

 

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Give a man a poisoned fish and you feed him for the rest of his life.

 

Why does everyone associate heavy metal with Satan.  For all we know could like cool jazz.

 

One of the oddities of Wall Street is that it is the dealer and not the customer who is called broker.

 

A grasshopper walks into a bar and asks the bartender to recommend a drink.

The bartender looks at him and says, “Well, they named a drink after you.”
“Really?” replies the grasshopper. “There’s a drink named Stan?”

 

A man comes home after a hard day’s work and opens the refrigerator
to get a soda. Inside, he sees a squirrel taking a nap.
“What are you doing in my fridge?” the man asks.
The squirrel opens one sleepy eye and says, “Isn’t this a Westinghouse?”
“Um, yes,” the man replies. “It is.”
“Well then,” the squirrel says, shutting his eyes again, “I am twying to west.”

 

Two golfers and a priest went out to play a few rounds
The first golfer missed a key swing.
“Damn, I missed!” he said.
The priest scolded him, saying that God would punish him for taking the Lord’s name in vain.
However, it happened again.
“Damn, I missed!”
The priest tutted and reminded him to keep the Lord’s name holy.
Finally, the golfer flubbed again.
“Damn, I missed!”
The heavens opened up and a massive finger pointed through the clouds, igniting a lightning bolt that crackled and blasted… the priest.
As the golfers looked at the dead priest and then looked up at the sky in confusion, a profound voice echoed from above:
“DAMN, I MISSED!”

 

When NASA was preparing for the Apollo project, some of the training of the astronauts took place on a Navajo reservation.

One day, a Navajo elder and his son were herding sheep and came across the space crew. The old man, who spoke only Navajo, asked a question that his son translated. "What are these guys in the big suits doing?"

A member of the crew said they were practicing for their trip to the moon. The old man got all excited and asked if he could send a message to the moon with the astronauts. Recognizing a promotional opportunity, the NASA folks found a tape recorder.

After the old man recorded his message, they asked his son to translate it. He refused. The NASA PR people brought the tape to the reservation, where the rest of the tribe listened and laughed, but refused to translate the elder's message.

Finally, the NASA crew called in an official government translator. His translation of the old man's message was: "Watch out for these guys; they have come to steal your land."

 

An engineer who was unemployed time decided to open a medical clinic. He puts a sign outside the clinic: "A cure for your ailment guaranteed at $500; we'll pay you $1,000 if we fail."

A Doctor thinks this is a good opportunity to earn $1,000 and goes to his clinic.
Doctor: "I have lost my sense of taste."
Engineer: "Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient's mouth."
Doctor: "This is Gasoline!"
Engineer: "Congratulations! You've got your taste back. That will be $500."
The Doctor gets annoyed and goes back after a couple of days later to recover his money.
Doctor: "I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything."
Engineer: "Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient's mouth."
Doctor: "But that is Gasoline!"
Engineer: "Congratulations! You've got your memory back. That will be $500."
The Doctor leaves angrily and comes back after several days, more determined than ever to make his money back.
Doctor: "My eyesight has become weak."
Engineer: "Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 11 and put 3 drops in the patient’s eyes.”
The nurse walks in carrying box #22.
Doctor: "Wait, that’s the box with the gasoline in it!”
Engineer: "Congratulations! You've got your vision back! That will be $500."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally, a few thoughts about something I recently discovered.  People talk about a billion a lot.  I think we need to put that number into perspective. 

 

A thousand seconds is 16 minutes

A million seconds is 11 days.

A billion seconds is almost 31 years.

A billion is a lot.

 

Pumpkin Spice JOW #1204

 Autumn has finally come to east Texas.  It is a season of allergies, cool weather, and pumpkin spice  Why pumpkin spice?  I have no idea, but it’s Pumpkin Spice Everything.  “You heard it here folks, it’s back, free pumpkin spiced oil changes with every tire change!”  Fall, pumpkins, and pumpkin spice are themes for my JOWs this week.

How do you cure someone with a pumpkin spice addiction?

Apply the pumpkin patch.

 

IPAs are just pumpkin spiced lattes for white men

 

What grows when you plant a pumpkin spice latte and water it with vodka?

A sorority.

 

Did you know, you can make any dish an autumn dish by adding one simple step? Try dropping it on the floor. It really gives it that fall flavor.

 

Q: What do you give to a pumpkin trying to quit smoking?

A: A pumpkin patch.

 

What do you get when you drop a pumpkin?

Squash.

 

What's a pumpkin's favorite genre?

Pulp fiction.

A couple of Tom Swifties

“Pumpkin spice is the flavor of the season,” Tom said zestfully.

“This pumpkin spice donut is delicious,” Tom exclaimed hungrily.

 

Some Autumn jokes

I always start running in the fall.  Not all of me.  Just my nose.

 

A man owned four tents which he used for camping.  He uses all four at different times of the year, and each one is based on one of four different musical genres.  In spring he uses the jazz tent, in summer he uses the pop tent, in autumn he uses the classical tent.  And of course, the winter of our disco tent.

 

I usually say 'Autumn' instead of 'Fall'.

Sometimes it can be my downautumn.

 

Did you know that when leaves fall off of trees in the Autumn, it's because of nostalgia?

They're trying to get back to their roots.

 

A couple goes to an art gallery. They find a picture of a naked women with only her privates covered with leaves.
The wife doesn't like it and moves on but the husband keeps looking.
The wife asks, "What are you waiting for?"
The husband replies, "Autumn."

 

A herd of zebras are grazing peacefully. They begin to suspect that lions are waiting to ambush them in a nearby meadow. One of the zebras however thinks he knows everything and confidently declares that there can’t be lions because lions don’t move into that area until the autumn and so haven’t arrived yet.
The other zebras are skeptical, so not wanting to be seen as wrong the arrogant know it all offers to prove it. He trots into the suspect meadow and is promptly devoured by the family of lions he insisted weren’t there.
One of the other zebras shrugs and says “everyone knows the pride comes before the fall.”

 

There were four henchmen: Winter, Summer, Spring, and Autumn.

The boss stood before them.
"Winter," he began. "I need you to stay cool in the face of pressure. Ice in your veins," he said, patting his shoulder.
"Then there's you, Summer," he continued. "If the heat becomes too much for Winter, use that hot temper of yours to make sure the cops remember who they're working for.
"As for you, Spring," he chuckled, "this operation is gonna bring in a lotta green. Make sure that it keeps growing."
He turned for the door as Autumn stood up.
"Boss!" he sputtered. "What about me?"
The boss turned back, shaking his head.
"Sorry, son. You're just the Fall guy."

 

Some Fall-safe jokes.

If two meth heads start a relationship is that speed dating or just ‘mething around’?

 

Remember Elvira?  She was just a goth Dolly Pardon

 

Greenhouse gases are creating global warming.  So blow up a greenhouse today.

 

Collie: “What do you mean I’m too controlling?”

Sheep: “You herd me.”

 

A lady went to a pet shop and spotted a large, beautiful parrot, offered for sale for only $50. “Why so little?” she asked the pet store owner.

The owner replied, “Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of ill repute, and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff.” The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird. She took it home and hung the bird’s cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something. The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said,

“New house, new madam.”

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought “that’s not so bad.”

When her two teenage daughters returned from school, the bird saw them and said, “New house, new madam, new girls.” The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation. Moments later, the woman’s husband came home from work. The bird looked at him and said, “Hi, Keith!”

 

Here is an exercise for people who are out of shape: Begin with a five-pound potato bag in each hand. Extend your arms straight out from your sides, hold them there for a full minute, and then relax. After a few weeks, move up to ten-pound potato bags. Then try 50-pound potato bags, and eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-pound potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. Once you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.

 

And finally, a seasonal joke to end it.

After a brutal late Autumn wind storm, I noticed that my young Elm tree had finally lost all of its leaves in preparation for the cold snowy winter ahead. I smiled to my self-realizing how nature helps all creatures prepare for the coming seasonal changes. But then my gaze was drawn to a red shotgun shell which had lodged near the top of the tree. I don't know if it was ejected there, or carried by a bird but you can imagine my surprise at seeing...

A cartridge in a bare tree.

 

 

 

Spooky JOW #1203

The Holidays are upon us, all at once.  I guess this means we should put up our Christmas trees while eating turkey dressed in our Halloween costumes.  It is closest to Halloween and so I guess that means I should have some jokes about Halloween.

 

Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t believe in celebrating Halloween.  I guess they don’t want random people coming up to their doors.

 

I was in an IKEA store recently trying to pronounce some of the names, and inadvertently summoned Cthulhu.  (With a nod to H.P. Lovecraft)

 

Halloween is the only day of the year when it’s OK to ask, “What are you?”

 

On a tombstone:  Here lies Clair Voyant.  She never saw it coming.

 

Sometimes I dress scary for kids who come to the door.  Sometimes I even do it on Halloween.

 

Some stupid (is there any other kind?) Knock Knock jokes.

 

Knock, Knock! 
Who’s there? Orange. 
Orange who? 

Orange you glad it’s Halloween.

 

Knock Knock. 
Who’s there? 
Boo! 
Boo who? 

Don’t cry, it’s only Halloween.

 

Knock, Knock! 
Who’s there? Witch.
Witch who? 

Witch one of you has the candy?

 

Knock, knock.
Who’s there?
Canoe.
Canoe who?
Canoe give me some candy?

 

• You know it’s bad luck to be followed by a black cat… if you are a mouse.

 

• 1900: Dracula survived by drinking the blood of virgins.
• 2022: Dracula dies of starvation.

 

Q: What is Dracula’s porn star name?
A: Vlad the Impaler

 

A guy walks into a bar and orders a pumpkin spice beer.

"Have you decided on a Halloween costume yet?" the bartender asks.

"Not yet. I was going to go as a band aid, but I decided against it," the guy replies. "It's really hard to pull off."

 

A few skeleton jokes:

 

Q: Why do skeletons have low self-esteem?
A: They have no body to love.

---

Q: Know why skeletons are so calm?
A: Because nothing gets under their skin.

 

Q: Why don’t skeletons ever go trick or treating?

A: Because they have no body to go with.

 

Q: What did the skeleton bring to the dinner party?

A: Spare-ribs.

 

Q: Why wouldn’t the skeleton cross the road?

A: No guts

 

Q: Why do skeletons make good comedians?
A: They are two humerus.

 

A skeleton walked into a bar and said, “I’ll have a beer.  And a mop.”

 

Q: I heard there is a skeleton in your closet?!
A: No, the body hasn’t decomposed yet.

 

And some topical riddles.

 

Q: Where do deviled eggs come from?
A: Evil hens.

 

Q: Why did the monster go inside the bar?
A: For the boos.

 

Q: What happened to the man who got behind on payments to his exorcist?
A: He got repossessed.

 

An enterprising journalist decided to get the scoop of the day by photographing the fearsome phantom that lived in the spooky old mansion house at the edge of town.
When he entered the house, armed with only his camera, the ghost descended upon him, moaning and wailing and clanking chains.
"I mean no harm; I just want your photograph," the journalist said bravely.
Pleased at this chance to make headlines, the ghost posed for a number of shots, and the happy journalist rushed back to his darkroom and began developing the photos.
Unfortunately, they turned out to be so underexposed that nothing could be seen in them.
He was distraught, and went to a local pub to drown his sorrows. Meeting his friends there, they asked what was wrong. Not wanting to tell the whole story, he simply explained with a single sentence.
"The spirit was willing, but the flash was weak."

And finally

A lad was on his way to visit his friend. Whilst driving, his car broke down and it began to rain so heavily, he couldn’t see his own hands in front of him. (Halloween super scary story)
He walked for as long as he could, but the rain became too much to bear. He found a tree and stood beneath it, waiting for a car.
Hours went by, and he was beginning to give up hope. It was a quiet road indeed that he found him on. The next town wasn’t for miles, so he’d have to stay the night under this tree if he didn’t find a ride.
Just as things were looking grim, he catches a light moving slowly towards him. He’s saved!
Desperate for a ride, he jumps into the vehicle once it stops for him. Once in, he turned to the driver seat to say thanks, and only then did he realize then moving car had no driver. The rain was so heavy, he couldn’t even hear the sound of the engine as the car slowly continued its journey.
The lad was too scared to move, too afraid to jump out of the car and run. Seeing the car was coming to a sharp bend that led down to dark water, he began to pray for his life. He was sure the ghost car would go off the road and into the river, where he would surely drown!
Right before the car made it to the bend, a shadowy hand reached in through the driver side window and turned the wheel, guiding the car around the bend, thus avoiding a wet demise for the lad. Just as silently, the hand disappeared through the window and the hitchhiker was alone again.
Paralyzed with fear, the lad watched the hand reappear every time they reached a bend. Finally, scared to near death, he’d had all he could take and jumped out of the car and ran towards the first town he could find.
Wet and in shock, he went into the nearest bar and told everybody about his supernatural experience. A silence enveloped the room and everybody got goosebumps when they realized the guy was telling the truth about the strange car and the ghostly hand that guided it on its way.
Just then, two men walked into the bar. They were dripping wet and as they took off their rain gear, they looked around the room. Their eyes came to rest on the hitchhiker. They pointed at him ominously, and he feared they were ghosts come to get him.
“Look!” said one of the men, “There’s the idiot who jumped into our car when we were pushing it in the rain.”

 

Sporting Life JOW #1202

 It is that magical time of the year when all four of the major professional sports (five if you count college football, which is pretty much professional now) are playing.  And I now have a chance to sit at home and watch post season baseball.  Just like the Yankees and the Mets.  So during this busy sports time I thought to share jokes about sports in general.

~~~~~

An apartment building is on fire and a woman screams out the window for help.

“Just jump out the window,” a man yells. “I’m a baseball player. I can catch you.” 

“Wait,” she says. “What team do you play for?” 

“The Oakland A’s,” shouts the man. 

“Ehhhh,” shrugs the woman. “I’ll take my chances with the fire.”

 

During the World Cup in Brazil, the England team visited an orphanage. “It was heart-breaking to see their sad little faces with no hope,” said João, age 6.

 

Why don’t the Rockets have a website?

They can’t string together three Ws.

 

What does a Timberwolves fan do after they win the finals?
Turn off his PlayStation and go to bed.

 

Where do football players go when they need new uniforms?

New Jersey.

 

Why don’t grasshoppers watch soccer?

They watch cricket, instead.

 

Putin scored eight goals in the exhibition hocky game due to his being an excellent slap shot.

If you don’t let him score, he slaps and then shoots you.

 

A gymnast walks into a bar... so the judges deducted five points.

 

Why do hipsters love field hockey?
Because it’s ice hockey before it gets cool.

 

I've decided to participate in a competition of stair climbing. I guess I'll definitely have to step up my game.

 

I was in the gym earlier and decided to jump on the treadmill. People were giving me weird looks, so I started jogging instead.

 

The trouble with jogging is that by the time you realize you're not in shape for it, it's too far to walk back.

 

Baseball statistics are like a girl in a bikini—they show a lot, but not everything.

 

You want proof baseball players are smarter than football players? How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field? 

 

Why does everybody sing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” when they’re already there?

 

Have you heard the one about the bad pole-vaulter? It never goes over very well.

 

Swimming is a confusing sport, because sometimes you do it for fun, and other times you do it to not die.

 

Bacon was definitely the first-round draft pick in the BLT. No one’s building a sandwich around lettuce or tomato.

 

The rules of baseball and the plot of The Godfather are the two most complicated things that every guy understands no matter how dumb he is. 

 

Two men was playing chess when one said, 'Let's make this more interesting.'  So they stopped playing chess.

 

I already regret my choice of Juilliard to win the NCAA basketball tournament.

 

A woman was sprawled on the living-room couch watching her favorite show on the Food Network when her husband walked in.
"Why do you watch those food shows?" he asked. "You don't even cook."
Glaring back at him, she asked, "Then why do you watch football?"

 

When the patient was wheeled into the emergency room, the doctor could tell he was out of it. He asked if he knew the date. The patient didn’t.
Then the doctor asked "Do you know what season it is?"
He thought a moment. "Baseball?"

 

A big-time sports fan was watching a football game with his grandchildren. He had just turned 73 and was feeling a little wistful. "You know," he said to his grandson, Nolan, "It’s not easy getting old. I guess I'm in the fourth quarter now."

"Don't worry, Grandpa," Nolan said cheerily. "Maybe you'll go into overtime."

 

The high school had lots of spirit, but that didn't help the football team, who had yet to win a game. So when the principal saw some cheerleaders sitting in the stands, he asked, "Don't you think you girls should be down there cheering for your team?"
"I think," one of them said, "we would be better down there playing for our team."

 

Two old friends settled down to watch the Notre Dame Michigan football game on TV.

“Which team to you want to win?” asked one man.

“Well as a Catholic, I'm partial to Notre Dame football. As a former Michigan resident, though, I also keep tabs on Michigan college teams.”

"So, who do you want to win?" the friend repeated.

"Gee, I don't know," he replied. "I'm kind of torn between Church and State."

 

About to have a blood test, the man nervously waited while the nurse tightened a tourniquet around my arm. "I understand you're from Oklahoma," she said. "Are you a Sooners fan?"
"Absolutely!" He replied.
"Well," she continued as she raised the needle, "this may hurt a little. I'm from Nebraska."

 

During a game being played by a high school's football team one of the players take a hard hit. He tumbled to the ground and didn't move.
The coach grabbed the first-aid gear and rushed out onto the field. The coach picked up the young man's hand and urged, "Son, can you hear me? Squeeze once for yes and twice for no."

 

Back at my high school for the tenth reunion, I met my old coach. Walking through the gym, we came upon a plaque on which I was still listed as the record holder for the longest softball throw.
Noticing my surprise, the coach said, "That record will stand forever."
I was about to make some modest disclaimer that records exist to be broken, when he added, "We stopped holding that event years ago."

 

It was the first day of basketball practice in high school, the coach handed a ball to each player. "Fellas," he said, "I want you to practice shooting from the spots you might expect to be in during the game."
The No. 12 sub immediately sat down on the bench and began arcing the ball toward the basket.

Gendered JOW #1201

 There was no joke of the week last week.  I was cruising on the Danube and did not care to write one.  But I am back to the grindstone this week.  I have noticed that there has been a lot of noise about pronouns lately.  You may be aware that I love grammar and word play in general.  Although I'm still learning all about pronouns.  But that is neither here nor there. 

All this neopronouns stuff is cool and all...I just can’t find a guide on how to pronouns them.

As far as I can tell, a pronoun is just a noun that gets paid for what an amateur noun would do for free.  I offer you some jokes this week based on the loaded subject of pronouns.

 

Wife, to the therapist: “He always misunderstands simple questions, taking them literally.”
Therapist, to husband: “What does she mean?”
Husband: “It’s a feminine pronoun.”

 

Teacher: Today you’ll give an example of a pronoun each and you form a sentence with it.
John: Her.
Teacher: Ok, your sentence?
Dave: Give her her book. It’s hers.
Teacher: That’s good.  Dave, you’re next.
Dave: Him.
Teacher: Your Sentence?
Dave: Give him him book. It’s hims.

 

When Little Johnny was a kid his English teacher looked his way and said, “Name two pronouns.”
He said, “Who, me?”

 

What is a pronoun?

Is there more than one singular first-person objective pronoun?
Or is it just me?

 

My wife and I was arguing about which personal pronoun was the best.

I won.

 

How is a girlfriend like a pronoun?

Your's is possessive

 

I do not always use pronouns, but when I do, it’s because I do not know that person's name.

 

If I had a dollar for each one of all these genders I’d have two dollars and a bunch of counterfeits.
