An underage weasel walks into a bar and the bartender says "sorry, I can't serve you alcohol, you're too young". The weasel replies that's ok, I'll drink something else. The bartender says "well I have water, soda pop, and cranberry juice, what'll it be?"

"Pop!" goes the weasel

The dumbest joke I know is a knock knock Joke and goes like this. You first have to make the person you're telling the joke to start saying "knock knock", then you you say, "who's there?".

Proceed to watch the other person confused about what to do next 😅

[–] odigo2020@lemmy.zip 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Usually, the most effective way is to say, "Wanna hear a knock knock joke?"

"Sure!"

"Okay, you start."

Has about a 90% success rate.

Brian and Bob were walking through the forest when they came across a set of tracks.

"Those are cougar tracks!" Bob exclaimed.

"Hell, no! Those are coyote tracks." Brain said.

"I'm tellin' you, I've been out in these woods since I was little, and those are cougar tracks!"

"There's no cougars in this part of the country. Those are coyote tracks!"

This one is a true story:

I was in Dallas Love Field with my daughter several years ago.

I said, "You know, this is where John Kennedy landed only a few hours before he was killed. Show some respect and try not to make an ass...assin of yourself."

Roughly fifteen years later her eyes still haven't come back from rolling into the back of her head

I'm still proud of myself for coming up with that little airport joke on the fly
