FIRST JOKE You Remember

[Pelagic]

Thought it would be fun to share the very first joke you can still remember and tried to tell....when growing up

For me as a 6 year old Scottish school boy, this was my first and I even remember it with my strong Scottish accent.....(long gone now)

Wit deed the constipated mathematician do?

There was this joke club: People got together to tell jokes and everyone had a good laugh.
It was time consuming however so to save time and get more jokes in, they started numbering the jokes: One guy would say 34 and everybody got a good laugh, 73 and they would laugh again, 23 and they all laugh, but one guy could not stop laughing, turned out he never heard it before.

Moby Grape.

[Tayana42]

What’s purple and conquered the world? Alexander the grape.

A visiting official of the Presbyterian church was with our sunday school and he said he had never listened to a rude joke and as we were all so young we could make that our aim. Unfortunately for me it was too late.

The first I remember was what's black and white and red all over, with the newspaper, but then in the era of sick jokes, the answer became "a wounded nun."

The ones I liked best I learned as a young adult, and most were shaggy dog stories involving puns or various forms of irony.
