Speed Joking
If there’s one certainty about modern life and all its conveniences, it’s that we’re no less busy than we were 10 years ago. Our capacity to fill the time with more productivity has meant that instead of doing the same amount as before and taking it easy in the free time remaining, we just do more.
So we actually have less time to amuse ourselves. And we all need a laugh, right? But there’s no time for standing around waiting for the funny parts of life. I hear you.
The answer? Speed joking.
Here are a few gags and I’ve cut straight to the punchline, so you can enjoy the rest the day being productive.
1. When I woke up my giant marshmellow was gone.
2. “Look Hans, no Ma!”
3. “Does my bomb look big in this?”
4. “It’s OK, I’ve just blown a seal.”
5. “But son, where is Bagh?”
6. …and the other has hope in his soul.
7. ….and God says: “Reverend, meet me halfway - buy a ticket.”
8. “Cheer up Mister Frodo, you’ve still got your elf.”
Thanks for your time.

OK - So only number 8 is mine, but you get the idea. Speed joking.

A family favourite:
“This is only a mild stab in the dark, but was it a s**t-house door off a Grimbsy trailer.”
And none of us remember the joke.
