Lexophile Humor

A friend sent this to me and it was worth it to pass it on to you. If you don't laugh, at least you'll have new insight into my character.

1. I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.
2. Police were called to a daycare where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.
3. Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.
4. To write with a broken pencil is pointless.
5. The short fortune teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large.
6. A thief who stole a calendar got twelve months.
7. When the smog lifts in Los Angeles, U.C.L.A.
8. The math professor went crazy with the blackboard. He did a number on it!
9. The professor discovered that her theory of earthquakes was on shaky ground.
10. The dead batteries were given out, free of charge.
11. A dentist and a manicurist fought tooth and nail.
12. A bicycle can't stand alone; it is just two-tired.
13. A will is a dead giveaway.
14. A backward poet writes inverse.
15. A chicken crossing the road: poultry in motion.
16. With her marriage she got a new name and a dress.
17. A grenade fell onto a kitchen floor in France, resulting in linoleum blownapart.
18. He broke into song because he couldn't find the key.
19. A calendar's days are numbered.
20. A boiled egg is hard to beat.
21. If you jump off a Paris bridge, you are in Seine.
22. When she saw her first strands of gray hair, she thought she'd dye.
23. Bakers trade bread recipes on a knead to know basis.
24. Acupuncture: a jab well done.

And to round it out, seen at a restaurant the other day: "I dream of a day when chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned."

Puns are the best jokes.

I very much enjoy puns and funny quips, so I loved the humor today--and all but three of them were new to me (which is surprising, since I watch way too many YouTube videos featuring humorous signs, memes, witticisms, etc.). Speaking of smart humor, I also enjoy the following Christian satire sites: In addition to The Babylon Bee’s stuff, a comedian named Adam Yenser (he was formerly with The Bee) presents the Weakly News (spelling it like you do) and the Cancelled News. Also, Church Soup, featuring pastor Keith Foskey presenting “Evangelical News with a Dash of Sarcasm.”
