    Two muffins are in an oven.

    One goes, “It sure is hot in here.”

    The other muffin says, “Holy shit! A talking muffin!”

    I didn’t invent this but I was really proud that I ‘got’ this readers digest joke from the bathroom copy when I was 10? and it’s stuck with me.

    Person A is on the elevator and Person B gets on

    Person A: “You look like Helen Brown”

    Person B: “You don’t look so good in black either”

    Most of my dumb jokes don’t work in English, but here’s some that do:

    • A Buddhist goes to the hot dog stall. What does he ask for? “Make me one with everything.”
    • You heard about the claustrophobic astronaut? He just wanted some space!

      After handing the hot dog vendor money, the Buddhist asks for change.

      The hot dog vendor replies, “Ah, but change comes from within.”

    When I was younger I memorized this in three (3) steps to use at zero (0) family gatherings… is it cheating if my stupidest joke is the only one I can recall instantly? :]

    Warning: this joke is so ancient, it’s sepia-toned.


    An engineer and a doctor were arguing about who had the harder job. To prove his might, the engineer decided to open a clinic, betting he’d be a successful doctor:

    “If we can cure you, you pay $500; if we can’t, we pay you $1,000.”

    Of course the doctor saw the proverbial <easy money> button immediately. The guy didn’t even have a license! So the doc went straight to the clinic as his first patient.

    Doc: “Sir, I have lost my sense of taste.”

    Engineer: “Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient’s mouth.”

    Doc: “Blawrgh! This is gasoline!”

    Engineer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your taste back. That will be $500.”

    The doctor leaves, fuming. But not to be beaten, he goes back after a few days – he can still leave with a profit if he plays this right.

    Doc: “Sir, I have lost my memory.”

    Engineer: “Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient’s mouth.”

    Doc: “What, no! That’s gasoline!”

    Engineer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your memory back. That will be $500.”

    The doctor leaves pissed. Buuut, doc comes back after a few days — he needs to at least break even, right? So, more determined than before, he brings a cane and says:

    Doc: “Sir, I’ve gone blind.”

    Engineer: disappointed “Well, unfortunately I don’t have any medicine for that. Take this $1,000.”

    Doc: “But this is $500…”

    Engineer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your vision back! That will be $500.”

    The stupidest joke I ever heard that has stuck with me for some reason:

    How are Santa and a plum alike? They’re both purple, except for Santa.

      It swims faster than it walks.

      And the similarities:

      Both feet are the same size, especially the left.

      Okay, I was a child of 12 or so at my local gym with a friend. We were talking and some old guy we didn’t know came up and asked us this. We stared at him, dumbfounded for a few moments before he said, “it has no legs.”
      He walked away and I never saw him again.

        He’s wrong. The original riddle is making fun of riddles, and so has no answer. Someone, might have been the same guy, walked up to me in a grocery store, as I was looking at mangoes. And he said, “If you eat a mango every day for 75 years, you’ll live a long life.” And he walked away.
