Short funny stories for adults:

1. The Lions and the Lamp:

Three hungry lions wander across the Serengeti National Park in search of food when they stumble upon an old oil lamp.

Having never seen one before and being naturally curious, they start sniffing around it. As they’re doing this, one of their tails brushes against the lamp, and then there’s a ‘Pooof!’ sound.’ A genie is suddenly standing in front of them.

Lions,” says the genie, “I’m the genie of the lamp, and I’ll grant you three wishes. That’s one wish for each of you.”

The first lion is so hungry he doesn’t need to think very hard.

I would like a big, juicy piece of meat, please,” he says.

Pooof! In a flash, the biggest, juiciest piece of meat is lying on the ground in front of him.

Well, it’s the turn of the second lion, and he’s so hungry he decides he wants even more.

I want a shower of meat, please,” he says.

Pooof! In a flash, there are big, juicy pieces of meat falling from the sky.

Not wishing to be outdone by his friends, the third lion thinks hard for a second or two.

Got it!” he says. “I want a meatier shower!

2. Parents know best:

Two young brothers, Will and Jack, had very different, extreme personalities.

Their parents quickly realized that Will was a born optimist, whilst Jack was a real pessimist.

So, being concerned about them both, their parents decided to take them to see a child psychologist.

The psychologist thought the parents were overreacting and tried to reassure them.

Mr and Mrs Smith,” he said, “I’m sure you’re exaggerating. I’m happy to review their behaviour for you, but I’ll be surprised if your boys are any different from any other young kids.”

In an attempt to allay their fears, he then took Jack into a room filled with the most exciting toys any child could possibly imagine.

Naturally, the psychologist expected to see Jack play with all these toys enthusiastically.

However, Jack just burst into tears.

What’s the matter?” asked the psychologist. “Don’t you want to play with all these wonderful toys?

No!” Jack responded. “I might break them, and then I’ll be in big trouble.”

Well, the psychologist was surprised by Jack’s extreme pessimism, but he couldn’t believe that both boys would be quite so different.

So, he decides to take Will into another room.

This room is filled from floor to ceiling with horse manure.

Naturally, the psychologist was expecting Jack to be completely repulsed by the experience.

However, Will was in his element, and he quickly started digging in the manure with his bare hands.

What are you doing?” asked the psychologist. “Why are you digging?

With all this manure,” replied Will, “there’s got to be a horse here somewhere!

3. The new teacher:

A new teacher is sitting with her 6th-grade class for the first time.

Naturally, she’s keen to apply all the techniques she’s learned in her teacher training, and in particular, she’s keen to use what she’s learned in her psychology class.

She stands in front of her class and says, “Right, children, everyone who thinks they’re stupid, please stand up.

Well, for a few minutes, there’s silence, and no one stands up.

However, just then, Little Johnny bravely gets to his feet.

The teacher smiles and says, “Do you think you’re stupid, Johnny?

No mam,” Johnny responded, “but it’s not fair, you standing there all on your own.”

4. On the Starship Enterprise:

On the Starship Enterprise, Captain Kirk is chatting with Doctor Spock one day.

Spock,” says Captain Kirk, “you always remain calm and good-natured, even when you’re talking to people who are obviously far less intelligent than you. How do you do it?

Well, Jim,” says Spock. “I convey my contempt for people I consider inferior to me by simply agreeing with whatever they say.”

Really?” says Captain Kirk. “That’s absolutely ridiculous!

I completely agree with you, Jim,” Spock responded with a smile.

5. Telling the time:

Two old Army buddies, Jim and Pete, are sitting up late at night, enjoying a bottle of the finest Scotch and reminiscing about old times in foreign places.

They’ve been drinking all evening, and they’re starting to get a little tipsy, to say the least.

Eventually, Jim asks, “What time is it?

To which Pete responds, “I don’t know, but give me your old bugle.”

Why?” Jim asks. “How can you tell the time with a bugle?

It’s easy,” says Pete. “Just watch me.”

Jim passes him the bugle, and Pete starts playing Reveille very, very loudly.

Within seconds, a voice shouts from the floor above, “Who the hell’s playing the bugle at one o’clock in the morning?

5 funny stories with a twist that’ll make you laugh

If you need a laugh, then here are five funny stories with a twist, which might just help.

I thought they were all funny, and I hope you do too.

Please enjoy them all, and then feel free to pass them on.

Funny stories with a twist:

1. The Jigsaw Puzzle:

Joe lives next door to a slightly dotty old lady in her 90s named Mabel.

One day, Joe gets a phone call from Mabel, and she says to him, “Joe, can you please come over and help me? I’ve got a complicated jigsaw puzzle, and I can’t figure out how to get started.

So Joe thinks for a second, and then he asks Mabel, “What’s the picture meant to be when it’s finished, Mabel?

The picture on the box is a rooster,” Mabel responds.

Joe’s busy, but Mabel’s a dear old lady, so he decides to go over to help her.

Mabel welcomes Joe and escorts him into her dining room, where the box and its contents are all over her dining table.

Joe surveys the situation in front of him, and then he turns to Mabel and says, “Mabel, I have to tell you, there’s no way we’ll be assembling these pieces into anything resembling a rooster.”

Why’s that, Joe?” Mable asks.

Joe smiles benevolently and then says, “Mabel, why don’t you make me a nice cup of tea?”

“OK, Joe,” says Mabel with a smile.

And then Joe sighs deeply and says, “While you’re making the tea, I’ll put all the Corn Flakes back in the box.

2. Finding Work:

Jim is a young guy living in a small town who failed to graduate from high school.

Having left school, his father says to him, “Son, you failed high school, but you’re a man now, so you must contribute some money to the household if you want to live here. So, get a job or you’ll have to find somewhere else to live.”

Naturally, Jim’s concerned about finding work without any qualifications. The local economy is in bad shape, and work prospects in the area are slim, at best.

However, there are three factories in town willing to hire the unskilled, but they all have bad reputations as employers.

Having little choice, Jim gets a job at the factory widely regarded as the best of the three.

His first day was truly awful, and he hates the place. Everyone is so miserable, and people don’t speak with each other. Nevertheless, Jim is determined he’ll stick it out and try to make the best of it.

Two weeks go by, and Jim gets his first paycheck.

It isn’t much, but he takes it home with pride to show his father.

His father looks at the check and then says, “Son, this isn’t good enough. I’m not happy at all.

Jim panics and says, “Pa, I’ll do better. Don’t kick me out. Just give me a chance.”

He then goes out and gets himself a job at the factory, widely regarded as the second-best of the three.

His experience on the first day in his new job is even worse than before. People look downtrodden and broken by their miserable lives. Everyone’s unhappy.

However, Jim’s determined that he won’t let his father down.

Two weeks go by, and Jim gets his first paycheck.

Again, it isn’t much, but he takes it home with pride to show his father.

His father looks at the check and then says, “Son, what are you thinking? This isn’t good enough either.

Well, Jim feels awful. However, he goes out and gets a job at the factory widely regarded as the worst in town.

The experience of his first day is the saddest you can imagine. Other employees are sobbing, and some seem to think ending it all might be preferable to their miserable existence.

Every day is a struggle for Jim, but he sticks at it, and after two weeks, he gets his first paycheck.

Fearing his father’s reaction, Jim stumbles home, broken and assuming his fate would be to be thrown out onto the street.

He gets home and hands his father the check, fearing the worst.

His father looks at the check, then looks Jim in the eye and says, “Son, this is OK now. You’ve done a saddest factory job.

3. The Math Test:

The coach of a college football team walked into the locker room before a game and said to his star player, “Listen, buddy, I’m not supposed to let you play because you failed your last math test. However, I need you out there for this game. So, I’ll ask you a math question, and if you get it right, you can play.”

OK,” says the player, “go ahead, coach.”

Right, now you’ll need to think hard,” says the coach. “What is five multiplied by five?

The player thought momentarily and then said, “Coach, I’m not sure, but I think it’s 25.”

“25!” exclaimed the coach, excited.

Oh, come on, coach,” the other players all immediately shouted in unison. “Give him another chance!

4. Trying Out for the Team:

A freshman built like a battle tank tried out for the college football team.

Can you tackle?” asked the coach.

Sure, coach,” says the guy, “No problem!” With that, he proceeds to charge at a wooden telephone pole, shattering it into splinters.

Impressive,” says the coach. “Can you run?

Yes, sir, coach. Watch me!” says the guy. With that, he runs 100 meters, finishing in less than 10 seconds.

That’s fantastic,” says the coach, truly impressed. “But the question now is, can you pass the ball?

Well,” says the freshman, choosing his words carefully, “if I can swallow it, then I guess I’ll be able to pass it.

5. Cure for Coughing:

Johnny was a clerk in a drugstore, but he wasn’t very good at his job. However hard he tried, he could never find the item the customer wanted.

His boss, Bert, had had enough of him, and he gave Johnny a warning that unless he started making sales immediately, he’d have to let him go.

As luck would have it, within minutes, a man walks into the drugstore with a cough, and he asks Johnny for their best cough syrup.

Though he tried hard, Johnny couldn’t find the cough syrup. However, with Bert’s warning still ringing in his ears, he sold the man a box of Ex-Lax with the recommendation that he consume the contents all at once.

The customer did as he was told and then walked into the street and promptly leaned up against a lamppost.

Now Bert had been observing Johnny’s performance from afar, and he came over and asked him what had transpired.

Well, boss, he wanted cough syrup, but I couldn’t find it, so I substituted Ex-Lax and told him to take them all at once,” said Johnny.

That’s absurd! Ex-Lax won’t cure a cough,” Bert reacted angrily.

Sure it will,” said Johnny. “Look at him now, leaning on that lamppost. He’s too afraid to cough.”

Hilariously funny story jokes:

1. Immaculate conception:

Jenny Smith accompanies her 15-year-old daughter, Caitlyn, to the doctor.

Good evening Mrs Smith”, says the doctor. “How can I be of help today?

“Well, Doctor Morgan, it’s my daughter Caitlyn,” says Mrs Smith. “She’s putting on weight, she’s being sick in the mornings, and she keeps getting these cravings.”

The kindly doctor smiles and then says, “Right then, let me take a look at her.”

He then examines Caitlyn thoroughly before turning to her mother and saying, “Well, I’m not quite sure how to break this news to you Mrs Smith, but your daughter is pregnant. Probably about three months gone, I would estimate.

Jenny Smith is shocked. “Pregnant?” she says to the doctor.

Yes, mam”, the doctor responds.

But how can that be?” says Mrs Smith. “She doesn’t even have a boyfriend. Do you, Caitlyn?

No mom, I don’t” Caitlyn responds nervously. “I’ve never even kissed a boy, and I’m still a v*****.

Doctor Morgan walks across to the window in his surgery and starts gazing out into the evening sky.

A few minutes pass before Mrs Smith feels compelled to say, “What’s the problem, Doctor? Is something wrong out there?

No, not really,” Doctor Morgan replies, “but the last time this happened, a star appeared in the east, and three wise men arrived on camels to witness the event. That’s a spectacle I didn’t want to miss.

2. If a job matters, don’t leave it to a man:

Gloria is getting increasingly concerned that her 3-year-old son, Billy, looks completely different from both her and her husband, Jeff.

So she decides to take Billy for a DNA test.

The results from the DNA test reveal that Billy is actually from completely different parents.

So when Jeff arrives home from work, Gloria says, “Honey, I’ve got something really serious to tell you.

Why? What’s wrong?” Jeff responds.

Well,” says Gloria, “according to DNA test results, Billy is not our child.

To which Jeff responds, “Well, don’t you remember? When we were leaving the hospital, we noticed that our baby had a wet diaper, and you said, ‘Honey, go change the baby, I’ll wait for you here’.”

3. County work:

Jim stops at a gas station on Interstate 5, fills his tank, pays for the gas, and, in doing so, also buys a can of cherry cola.

Before moving on, Jim stands by his car drinking his cola. As he does so, he watches a couple of guys working along the roadside.

One of the guys digs a hole about two feet deep, then moves on.

The other guy follows the first guy, filling in the hole that had just been dug.

And each time the first guy digs a new hole, the other guy is about 20 feet behind him, filling in the previous hole.

Jim watches this for a while and then feels compelled to say something.

So, as the two workmen get close to where Jim is standing, he says to them, “Hey, guys, just hold it a minute. Why are you digging holes and then just filling them in again?

Well,” said the first guy, “we work for the county.”

So, you work for the county,” says Jim, “but one of you is digging a hole and the other is just filling it in again. You’re not accomplishing anything. Aren’t you just wasting the county’s money?

Hey buddy, you don’t understand,” says the first guy, leaning on his shovel and wiping sweat from his brow.

Normally, there are three of us,” the second guy chips in.

That’s right,” said the first guy. “There’s normally me, Mike here, and Phil, but Phil’s sick today.”

Yeah!” says Mike, “Bill here digs the hole, Phil plants a tree, and then I shovel the dirt back in.

Right,” says Jim, “I get it, but Phil’s not here, so there’s no tree.”

Yeah!” Bill responds. “But just because Phil’s not here doesn’t mean that we don’t still have work to do!

4. You can’t outsmart an old dog:

An old dog strays into a jungle and gets completely lost.

A hungry lion basking in the sun spots the old dog from a distance and thinks to himself, “I’ve not seen this type of animal before, but he sure looks edible.”

The lion then gets up and starts moving slowly towards the old dog, gradually picking up the pace before he then sprints towards the dog with real menace in his eyes.

The old dog sees the charging lion, and naturally, he starts to panic. Who wouldn’t panic in these circumstances?

However, the old dog is also intelligent, and he realises he cannot outrun the lion. So, having noticed some bones next to him on the ground, he picks one up and starts chewing on it.

As the lion gets close, he then says loudly, “Hmmm, now that was some excellent lion meat!

Hearing this comment stops the lion in his tracks.

The lion stares at the old dog, thinking, “This old fella must be a lot tougher than he looks. It might be a good idea to leave him alone.

A monkey in a nearby tree sees what’s happened and recognises that the old dog has managed to fool the lion.

Naturally, the monkey thinks that this is a situation he might be able to exploit to his advantage.

So he goes over to the lion and tells him exactly what happened, in the hope that he might get something in return.

The lion is angry that he’s fallen for the old dog’s deception, so he says to the monkey, “Get on my back now, and we’ll get him together. We’ll teach him a lesson he won’t forget.”

So with the monkey on his back, the lion once again starts rushing in the old dog’s direction.

Despite his advancing years, the old dog is quick to spot them and realises what’s happened. He starts to panic again before he quickly gets another idea.

He then starts to act like he’s searching for something until they get close, and then, to ensure they hear him, he shouts loudly, “Where’s that monkey? I told him to bring me another lion an hour ago.

A week later his grandad came to visit and he was asking Johnny how he was getting on with playing the drums.

They’ve already earned me over $100”, said Johnny

As she continues with her knitting, his wife says: “Now come on dear, be honest with the officer. You know this car doesn’t have cruise control.

As the officer is writing up the ticket, the driver looks angrily at his wife and says, “Can’t you please keep your mouth shut!

His wife smiles innocently and says, “Well dear you should be thankful your radar detector went off when it did, or your speed would have been even higher.”

The Highway Patrol officer immediately starts writing up a second ticket for the illegal use of a radar detector.

Once again, the driver stares at his wife angrily.

Listen, women,” says the driver, “just keep your mouth shut, please.”

The officer frowns as he’s listening to this exchange and then says, “Sir, I noticed you weren’t wearing your seat belt. I’m afraid that’s an automatic fine of $75.

Please, officer,” says the guy, “I did have it on, but I took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my license out of my coat pocket.”

To which his wife responds, “Now, you know that’s not true, dear. You didn’t have your seat belt on because you never wear your seat belt.”

The Highway Patrol officer starts writing up a third ticket, as the driver explodes and screams at his wife, “WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP!

At this point, the Highway Patrol officer looks over at the wife and asks, politely, “Mam, does your husband always speak to you this way?

She looks at her husband innocently and then says, “Only when he’s been drinking.

4. A healthy diet:

Jim and Mildred, both in their 90s, were killed suddenly when the bus they were on crashed in bad weather.

This was sad because they’d been in excellent health due to a strict regime of eating only healthy foods, abstaining from drinking alcohol, plenty of exercises and watching their weight.

When St Peter welcomed them, he showed them around the first-class facilities now available to them in Heaven.

Jim was really impressed with the beautiful scenery, the eighteen-hole golf course and the Olympic-sized swimming pool.

This place is really amazing”, said Jim.

That’s not all,” said St Peter, “let me show you around our five-star restaurant.”

He then led them into the most amazing restaurant with a sumptuous buffet serving every type of delicious food you could imagine.

Where’s the low-fat table?” asked Jim.

Oh you don’t need to worry about that anymore”, said St Peter. “You can eat anything you like here. You’re in Heaven now! You can eat as much as you like too. Drink wine; drink beer as well. None of it will affect you.

Jim suddenly became quite irritated and he threw his hat to the ground.

What’s the problem?” asked St Peter.

Mildred”, Jim snapped, “if you hadn’t insisted on that ghastly diet of All-Bran, Tofu, lentils and oatmeal, we could have been here 10 years ago!

Very Funny Jokes:

1. Store policy:

The store manager overheard her sales assistant saying to an elderly customer, “No mam, we haven’t had any for some weeks now, and it doesn’t look like we’ll be getting any soon.

Alarmed by what she’d heard, the store manager rushed over to the elderly lady as she was leaving the store and said, “Mam, I am so sorry; the information you were given was incorrect. We will actually have some very soon. We’ve placed an order today.

The elderly lady gave the store manager a slightly puzzled look, but then just smiled and left the store.

The store manager then walked back over to her sales assistant and said very sternly, “You must never say that we don’t have something. If we don’t have it, say we have it on order and we expect it any day. Do you understand me?

Yes, mam!” responded the sales assistant.

So what was it the old lady was asking for?” asked the store manager.

Rain”, responded her sales assistant.

2. Bad news:

Dan went to his physician for his annual check-up.

However, he was shocked when his doctor said to him, “I’m afraid you’ve only got three weeks to live.

Are you sure?” said Dan, “I feel fine. Isn’t there anything that can be done?”

“Well,” said his doctor, “you could try taking a mud bath each day.”

“Will that cure me?” asked Dan.

“No, but it’ll get you used to the dirt,” responded the physician.

3. Generational divide:

Jill and Frank are a young couple who have just gotten married, and they are on their honeymoon in Majorca.

They are on an all-inclusive package holiday, and when they arrive in the hotel restaurant for dinner, they are seated with an elderly couple who are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary.

Throughout dinner, the old man keeps referring to his wife as honey, or sweetie pie, and a few other terms of endearment.

As they are enjoying a liqueur at the end of the meal, Jill says to the elderly couple, “I am so impressed. I hope that if Frank and I make it to our 60th anniversary, he’ll still be calling me sweetie pie.

The old man smiled and said, “To tell you the truth, I forgot her name about 20 years ago.

4. The parking ticket:

Let me tell you a story about something that happened last week. My wife and I went into town to do some shopping. We came out of a store only to see a cop writing out a parking ticket.

Naturally, I went up to him and said, “Come on, buddy, how about giving a senior citizen a break?

Well, he just ignored us and continued writing the ticket.

As he completed the ticket and was putting it on the windshield, I called him a “schmuck.”

Well, he just glared at me and then started writing another ticket, this time for having worn-out tires.

As he completed that ticket, my wife called him a “jerk.”

He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing more tickets.

This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we called him offensive names, the more tickets he wrote. Having slapped the last one on the windshield, he then started walking away with a smirk on his face.

Just then, our bus arrived, so we got on it and went home.

5. Embarrassing situations:

By nature, Jason was intelligent but a bit shy. One day, he went into a bar, and he saw a stunningly attractive woman sitting alone at a table drinking a white-wine spritzer.

Jason couldn’t take his eyes off this woman, and eventually, he plucked up the courage to walk across and speak to her.

Hello, I’m Jason. Would you mind if I sat with you and chatted for a while?” asked Jason quietly but politely.

The woman responded by yelling at the top of her voice, “No! I will not sleep with you tonight!

Jason blushed, beetroot red with embarrassment, and everyone in the bar looked over to see what was happening.

So he walked back over to the counter where he’d been sitting, reflecting on how he might have handled the situation and intending to leave the bar as soon as he’d finished his drink.

However, a couple of minutes later, the attractive woman walked over to him and apologised.

I’m sorry,” she said. “I’m a PhD student at Harvard, and I’m researching how people respond in embarrassing situations.

To which Jason responded, yelling loudly at the top of his voice, “What do you mean you charge three hundred dollars minimum?

Funny jokes to cheer up a friend:

1. The new store on Main Street:

Jerry and Mike were two young businessmen who were setting up a new store on Main Street.

The store wasn’t quite ready for opening yet, but at least all the shelves were now set up and located in their proper places.

They’d had a hectic morning setting up those shelves, so they were now taking a well-earned break.

As they surveyed the results of all their hard work, Jerry said, “I’ll bet you any minute now someone will walk by, put their face to the window, and then ask what we’re selling.

Mike smiled, but before he could respond, a little old lady was peering through the glass. In a soft voice, she said, “What are you selling here?”

Well, Jerry couldn’t resist a sarcastic response.

“We’re selling schmucks,” he said.

Right back at him, the little old lady responded, “You’re doing well then. You’ve only got two left!

2. The geek and the frog:

A geek is having his lunch on campus. It’s a beautiful spring day, so the geek is sitting on the grass outside the college building, brown bag in hand.

There’s a fountain close by, and as he’s enjoying a sandwich, suddenly a frog hops from the water and straight over to speak to the geek.

Hello,” says the frog. “Thank goodness you’re here. I’m a beautiful princess, but the wicked witch has cursed me. A kiss from you will break the spell. If you could do that for me, I’ll be ever so grateful.

The geek stares at the frog momentarily, then picks it up without saying a word and puts it in his pocket. Having finished his lunch, he then gets up and heads back towards the college building.

The frog can’t believe what’s happening.

Hey, did you hear me?” the frog asks. “Kiss me, and you’ll have your beautiful princess.

The geek pats the frog on the head and begins to whistle.

The frog is starting to get a little concerned.

Please, help me,” says the frog. “I don’t want to remain a frog. I want to be the princess I once was. If you kiss me, I’ll marry you. Then you’ll be royalty, and you will lead a charmed life for as long as you live.”

Look, froggy,” says the geek. “I’m a computer software geek. I wouldn’t know what to do with a girlfriend. However, a talking frog? Now, that’s cool.

3. The affair:

A wealthy, married businessman from New York had been having an affair with an attractive Italian woman for a few months.

One night, during their regular rendezvous in Manhattan, she confided in him that she was pregnant.

For him, this was a significant problem, both in terms of the potential reputational damage and the risk of a costly divorce.

So, he paid her a large sum of money and a regular monthly allowance on the condition that she would return to Italy to have the child.

He also promised her that if she stayed in Italy, he would pay her child support until the child turned 18.

She agreed to this proposal, but then wondered how she could let him know when the baby was born.

We’ll have to use a code,” said the man. “To keep it discreet, send me a postcard when the baby is born. And to confirm the baby’s birth, write Spaghetti on the back.

Nine months later, the wealthy businessman arrived home to find his wife looking very confused.

Honey,” she said, “you’ve received a very odd postcard today.”

Let me look,” he said.

His wife handed him the postcard and watched as he read it. He looked surprised and quickly turned white, then red, before he fainted.

On the postcard was written, “Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Two with meatballs, one without.

4. The baptism:

A drunken guy stumbles across a baptismal service one Sunday afternoon down by the river.

He walks into the water and stands next to the preacher. The preacher notices the drunk and says, “Mister, are you ready to find Jesus?

The drunk looks at him and says, “Yes, preacher, I am.”

The minister dunks the guy underwater and pulls him right back up.

Have you found Jesus?” asks the preacher.

No, sir, I haven’t!” said the drunk.

The preacher dunks him under the water a second time for a more extended period, then brings him up and says, “Now, my friend, have you found Jesus?

No, sir, I haven’t,” the drunk responds.

Frustrated, the preacher holds the man under for a full minute this time before bringing him back to the surface. He says to him in a harsh tone, “My God, sir, have you found Jesus yet?

The drunk wipes his eyes and says to the preacher, “Are you sure this is where he fell in?

5. The flying experience:

Boarding was now complete on Flight 205, and all passengers were seated, awaiting the pilot and co-pilot.

The pilot and co-pilot arrive, and as they climb the steps to the plane, passengers notice that they’re both wearing dark glasses and both have long white sticks. They both appear to be blind, as they’re using the sticks to feel their way up the steps.

Well, naturally, the passengers start to freak out as they watch them struggle to find their way into the cockpit with the help of the cabin crew.

The cabin crew then prepare for departure, as if everything is normal, carrying out their final checks and so on.

Quickly, as it now all appears normal, the passengers start to calm down. They assume the pilot and co-pilot must have been joking at their expense.

Eventually, the plane moves off the stand, and within minutes, it is cleared for takeoff.

The plane is now racing down the runway.

At the end of the airport runway, a very steep cliff falls away into the open sea.

As the plane speeds down the runway, there’s no sign of lift-off, and the cliff edge is getting closer and closer by the second.

The passengers start screaming in panic, but then, suddenly, the plane is airborne, and calm returns once again.

In the cockpit at this moment, the pilot says to the co-pilot, “You know, one of these days, the passengers won’t scream early enough, and we’re all going to die.”

Best funny jokes for adults:

1. The atheist and the cowboy:

An atheist boards a flight from Dallas to New York and sits next to a dusty old cowboy.

As he’s taking his seat, the atheist says to the cowboy, “Well, howdy. Would you like to talk? I find flights go quicker when you can have a conversation with a fellow passenger.

The old cowboy puts down the inflight magazine he’d been reading and says, “What would you want to talk about, buddy?

Well,” says the atheist, with a smug smile, “we could talk about why there’s no God. How about we discuss why there’s no Heaven, no Hell, and no life after death?

The old cowboy smiles a knowing smile and then says, “Yeah, they might be interesting topics to discuss, but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff. Grass, right? Yet the deer excretes little pellets, the cow turns out a flat patty, and the horse produces clumps of manure. Now, why do you suppose that is?

The atheist is surprised by this question but thinks for a moment and then responds, “Well, I have no idea.”

The old cowboy smiles a wry smile and then replies, “So, why do you feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death when you don’t know much at all?

2. The challenge:

Jeff was a teenage boy who’d just passed his driving test. Naturally, he was keen to start driving. So, he asked his dad if he could use the family car on Sundays, when it was otherwise unused.

Well, Jeff,” said his dad, “I’d need you to bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut before I’d be willing to talk about you using the car.”

Jeff thought about it momentarily, realised it was the best offer he was likely to get, and so, he decided to accept his dad’s offer. And with that, they shook hands on it.

At the end of the semester, Jeff’s dad said, “Son, I’m pleased you’ve improved your grades, and your willingness to study the bible hasn’t gone unnoticed either, but I’m disappointed you still haven’t had your hair cut.”

Dad,” said Jeff, “I’ve been thinking about that, and I’ve noticed from my Bible study that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair, and even Jesus had long hair.

Dad smiled at Jeff and then said, “And did you also notice that they all had to walk everywhere they went?

3. The corny pun 1:

During colonial times, William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania, was one of Philadelphia’s most prominent citizens.

Penn had two maiden aunts who owned a bakery known far and wide for its fruit pies, which were reputed to be the best available anywhere.

After many years of success, the two aunts had a serious falling out.

The falling out was so serious that they stopped speaking to one another altogether. Then one moved across the street and opened her own bakery, putting the two in competition.

It wasn’t long before there was a price war going on between them, with each aunt lowering her prices to undercut the other.

Eventually, it became so ridiculous that they were selling their products at a loss.

By this time, the only topic of conversation in town was the pie rates of Penn’s aunts.

4. The corny pun 2:

Elmer and Buck are two hillbillies having lunch in Denny’s restaurant. They’re sitting at the counter, enjoying their food, and discussing their moonshine operation.

Suddenly, a woman seated at a nearby table begins to cough violently.

It seemed the bite she’d taken from her club sandwich had gone down the wrong way.

She continues to cough violently for a minute or so, and she’s starting to get quite distressed.

Elmer walks over to the lady and says, “Mam, kin ya swallar?’

The woman shakes her head, suggesting she couldn’t, as she continues to struggle with her breathing.

“Mam, kin ya breathe?” Elmer continues.

Again, she indicates she can’t, as she begins to turn blue.

At this point, Elmer grabs the woman’s skirt, lifting it before yanking down her underwear, and then he starts licking her right butt cheek with his tongue.

The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm, and the obstruction flies out of her mouth.

As she begins to breathe again, Elmer returns to the counter, and as he does so, Buck says to him, “Ya know, I’d heard of that there ‘Hind Lick Manoeuvre’ but I ain’t niver seed nobody do it, until now.”

5. The emergency landing:

Jack and Mabel are an elderly couple flying to Hawaii for a vacation to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary.

They’re enjoying the in-flight service when suddenly, over the public address system, the captain makes an announcement.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have some unfortunate news to share with you. We’re having serious problems with all four engines, and we have no choice but to make an emergency landing. Luckily, there’s a remote island just ahead of us with a long, flat beach. We should be able to land the plane safely. However, we also have problems with our communications, so we won’t be able to summon help. So, we may never be rescued, and we may have to spend the rest of our lives on this island.

The pilot manages to land the plane safely, and the passengers all exit the aircraft via the inflatable evacuation slides.

They’re all wandering around the beach looking a little bewildered when Mabel says to Jack, “Honey, what are we going to do?

Jack thinks momentarily and then says, “Mabel, did you manage to make the car lease payment this month?

No, sweetheart,” Mabel responds sheepishly, “I was so excited about our trip that I forgot.”

Well,” Jack continues, “how about settling our credit card bill? Did you manage to do that before we left?

Oh no, I didn’t!” says Mabel, “and it was a big one this month with all the expense of this holiday.

Right, then,” Jack continues, “did you manage to settle the medical bill for the hospital treatment I had last month?

No, sweetheart,” Mable responds, getting visibly upset, “again, I forgot.

Jack gives Mabel the biggest hug, and then he says, “There’s absolutely nothing to worry about, dear. We owe money, so they’ll find us!
