Thai Sense Of Humour

Featured Replies

My bf regularly cracks me up with his sense of humour.

Maybe some of you wont find this funny, but just now I sent him a sms (text message) and wasnt expecting the reply he gave me (this is just one of many examples of his sense of humour).

My sms (Oh, my bro lives in Argentina btw):

"my bro is in London atm, and he asked me if i would like anything sent over. What can I get there that I cannot get here? Any ideas?"

His reply:

"Thaksin"

:o

(btw, while im on the subject, if anyone has any thoughts about what i should ask to have sent over from UK, that would be great. Light items!)

I'm sure I've told this one before.... but it's worth repeating.

One day wifey rushed back to our house in a bit of a state, and the hurried conversation went like this......

Me: "What's the problem darling"

Her: "Snake bite Mama"

Me: "Ok, snake die"

Her: "No, but it's very sick"

(btw, while im on the subject, if anyone has any thoughts about what i should ask to have sent over from UK, that would be great. Light items!)

How about.......lev-lamps.jpg or perhaps.......kebab-lamps.jpg

Talking about humour which you were but this definately aint Thai, did you know:-

It's long been held that the old jokes are the best jokes - and Monty Python's Dead Parrot sketch is no different.

A classic scholar has proved the point, by unearthing a Greek version of the world-famous piece that is some 1,600 years old.

A comedy duo called Hierocles and Philagrius told the original version, only rather than a parrot they used a slave.

It concerns a man who complains to his friend that he was sold a slave who dies in his service.

His companion replies: "When he was with me, he never did any such thing!"

The joke was discovered in a collection of 265 jokes called Philogelos: The Laugh Addict, which dates from the fourth century AD.

Hierocles had gone to meet his maker, and Philagrius had certainly ceased to be, long before John Cleese and Michael Palin reinvented the yarn in 1969.

The manuscripts from the Greek joke book have now been published in an online book, featuring former Bullseye presenter and comic Jim Bowen presenting them to a modern audience.

Mr Bowen said: "One or two of them are jokes I've seen in people's acts nowadays, slightly updated.

"They put in a motor car instead of a chariot - some of them are Tommy Cooper-esque."

Jokes about wives, it seems, have always been fair game.

One joke goes: "A man tells a well-known wit: 'I had your wife, without paying a penny'. The husband replies: "It's my duty as a husband to couple with such a monstrosity. What made you do it?"

Boom Boom!

From today's Telegraph. Well it beats reading about the financial sh1t.

Eek if you're looking for something light take nothing at all. Suitable for the man who has everything. :o
