Okay, next time I post a joke I'll start out "This really didn't happen, so don't bother reading it". Will that make it clear?


Better yet save the jokes and just post a picture ot two.

Just omitting the intro would have made the whole thing more amusing.

That and had it been a fresher joke. The carrier vs. lighthouse joke goes back at least 70 years.

Reading the jokes posted here, I don't think a new joke has been written in decades.
there is no new ones just old ones refurbursed,HAR!!

OK, this joke thing is getting out of hand, I read the jokes and like the funnies but this is general CHIT CHAT, there should be a seperate catagory for the jokes and funnies. Sometimes I have a limited time frame and don't have time to read these. When I read the general chit chat site I expect to read about the field I am here for (photography)and general Chit Chat. Excuse me, but when I open a field, I hope to see an answer to something, not comedians. When I have more time I love the jokes. In general there is no offense intended but if this were a catagory alone, it would be for an occasional visit, and i do love a good laugh.

[quote=farmerjim]Cheers Waterback, I haven't heard that one for ages, always makes me laugh!
There's a video on you-tube which you might care to take a look at.

Thanks, farmerjim. I didn't know that joke had been made into a video. It was great! Boy, I didn't think an ancient joke; which I had just "cut and pasted" from an internet site, would case such a commotion.

Why say actual, why say carrier and why say Canada? If your gonna tell a joke at least get it right. It's been around for over 50 years good grief.

What do you mean "get it right"? I just copied it from an internet site and pasted it here. Didn't think I was required to edit it in order to please the joke police.

I thought it was pretty funny, AFTER I realized it wasn't true. It was clear in your headline, but as some one said, it started out as saying it really happened.

No, you don't have to begin by saying "it really didn't happen". Your headline was the big clue and if someone doesn't get it, they only have themselves to blame cause they did not read or understand the headline. What threw people, me as well, was that it started out saying it really happened, which contradicted the headline.

Someone said there should be a separate category for jokes because they expect general chit chat to be photography related. But doesn't it say on the heading of Chit Chat, that it is NOT photography related?

It is such a waste of valuable time to have to read the directs, like you said just dive right in, someone will tell you when you hit bottom. Actually I think this whole thing has been hilarious from the first paragraph on page one to the end!
