Maybe it's logical to find your parents funnier?

Nah, he was a proper comedian.
Used to do loads of amateur shows in Dundalk, back in the day.
Just my delivery of a punchline, in my youth, was a little off.

I've worked with a lot of people like this, and I've wanted all of them to get killed on the way to the office in the morning.:(

But if someone says something funny you will laugh. Regardless of whether you know them or not. I laugh at stuff on here all the time and I haven't a clue who any of ye are.

I even thank ye for saying funny sh!t.

Very true!

Plus there is a time and a place to tell jokes - ya gotta pick your moments and walking up to a stranger at a bus stop aint one of them.
However posting on boards is!

Yeah its not good. An arabic fellow I got chatting to at a bus stop the other day was talking about infidels and the like, we had a great conversation about religion until the bus pulled up, he was having trouble getting his backpack on so I gave him a hand. He told me I was a nice guy and whatever I do, do not get on this bus. I got a bit worried then and asked him why. He replied "Because its going to Limerick. Its shit"

Cappelo just rang Wayne Bridge to say " John Terry has lost his captains armband - any chance of you looking under the bed for it ?"
.:D

Ifind it hard to make conversation with strangers whenever i have one of those nervous moments... i just usually say something inappropriate like thanking them needlessly

For example just now - some family acquaintance coming up the stairs as I'm coming down

Acquaintance - "hey tim"
me - "hey -- !"
acquaintance - "just going to use you bathroom tim"
me - "okay -- thanks"

A penguin walks in to a pub, sits down at the bar and orders a pint. Asks the barman, "You haven't seen me son in here tonight, have ya?". Barman thinks for a second, scratches his head, rubs his chin, says, "Eh...
What does he look like?"
