5/Oct/20 that was a really funny joke

 

Good morning world.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home, in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

The Big Guy loves to tell Dad jokes.  But only funny ones.

What do you call Batman and Robin after being run over by a steam roller?

Flatman and Ribbon

Come on, that was funny.

However, you also don't want to get the Big Guy to tell some of his "Shaggy Dog Stories".

One time, he went to the movies and they were there rather early.

He told a joke about this hunter that wanted to get a pink elephant.

To get the pink elephant, you had to bake a custard pie with 23 peanuts on top.

You would have to go thru the jungle with the man eating tigers

Cross the river with the hungry piranha

Get thru the swamp with the vicious alligators

You would come across this field.  You would place the pie in the center of the field.  Then you would hide.

A pink elephant trunk would rise up and sniff the air.  Before you knew it, the pink elephant would run across the field, eat the 23 peanuts, eat the custard pie and run back in the forest.

Crap.  I need a new pie.

Get thru the swamp with the vicious alligators

Cross the river with the hungry piranha

You would have to go thru the jungle with the man eating tigers

You would get the cook to make you a pie with 22 peanuts on it.

You would get the cook to make you a pie with 21 peanuts on it.

********

At some point the kids would catch on that your counting down the number of peanuts.  But this day, nope.  The kids let me tell the joke.  3 peanuts, new pie, 2 peanuts, new pie, 1 peanut, new pie.

Finally, I got the cook to make me a custard pie with...  NO PEANUTS on the pie.

I didn't notice, but there was a lot of very quiet people in the theatre and they all wanted to know how this was going to play out.

The pink elephant seen that there wasn't any peanuts on the custard pie.  

The pink elephant held it's breath till it turned blue.

The famous hunter stood up, and looked at the blue elephant and said:  I already got a blue elephant, and left.

Some people in the movie theater laughed and laughed.  Others groaned.
