Short Joke

Witzendwizard Loc: Wells, Somerset, UK
 
For his birthday, little Joseph asked for a 10-speed bicycle. His father said 'Son we'd give you one but the mortgage on this house is £280,000 and your mother just lost her job. There’s no way we can afford it.'

The next day the father saw little Joseph heading out the front door with a suitcase. So he asked 'Son where are you going?' Little Joseph told him;

'I was walking past your room last night and heard you telling mum you were pulling out. Then I heard her tell you to wait because she was coming too.

And I'll be damned if I'm staying here by myself with a £280,000 mortgage and no bloody bike!

I don't get it . . .
Not that I don't understand, - - I just don't get it.

British humor is......well.........a bit "different". :roll: :roll:

But I thought it was funny, in a rather subtle way.

I understood the joke; that is, I realize what THEY (mum and dad) were doing. What I don't get is just that, the sex. (But I do have a few good memories from years gone by...)

You do remember what a bicycle is, don't you?

It's OK that you don't get it, you're in hiding. Perhaps you are in the witness protection program and have lost your sense of humor. It's still OK.
