From time to time I have to host a staff awards thing, only bearable by (a) getting slightly drunk and (b) me weaving in as many bad jokes as possible.
Obviously we are doing it online this time, so I won't be able to hear the audience in stitches, although thinking about it I don't think anyone ever laughed in real life.
I'm looking for your best short, stupid and relatively clean jokes. Particular favourites are from teh Bob Mortimer/Peter Beardsley camp:
- I went to the electrical shop and asked if anyone could sell me a kettle
- Kenwood?
- Great, where is he?
- Do you think glass coffins will be a thing of the future?
- Remains to be seen
- I was walking through the graveyard and saw a man crouching by a gravestone
- Morning!
- No, I'm having a dump
That sort of thing. What ya got?
