    I'll go with the obvious.

    There are 10 types of people in this world, those that understand binary and those that don't.

    "What's the most important factor a comedian can have timing."

    I sent that around to most of my mates....about say...60% texted back going "what?". Facepalm.

    And another;

    "Did you hear that exaggerations are up a million percent this year?"

    It doesn't really work as a text joke though, does it?

    It's the sort of thing that you need to hear.

    Steve Martin used to have a big long involved joke about plumbing with lots of technical jargon thrown in and when he finished there'd be stony silence. He'd look around and say "Is that plumbing convention not in tonight?"

    I liked that one.

    See, I'm of the other opinion that it only works when read! Dunno. When you say it people look at you like a dog that's just been shown a card trick. When it's written down you can kinda look back and go..."Ah, yeah....get it now". Or maybe when I first came across it, it was written and that's the medium I use.

    Diff'rent Strokes I s'pose.

    I thought this thread was called "Jokes not everyone will get" and not "Stuff I read on Sickipedia".

    I didn't get the UVF joke btw...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,150 ✭✭✭kumate_champ07


    Stuff I read on Sickipedia.

    awesome i just googled that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi

    "An ceapann tú go bhfuil an fear sin san U.V.F.?" = Do you think that man is in the UVF?

    "Ni ceapaim." Means "I don't think so." However it sounds like "kneecap him." When read with a northern accent.
