Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Comedy Corner! This is where you can post up funny jokes or silly short stories. This is the right Forum to go to when you want to post a joke or just want to laugh. Have a fun(ny) time over here!
Here's a short story that made me laugh out loud:
There once was a Skeplunkian woman that moved to America, but didn't know how to speak English.
One day she was flipping through her TV channels and turned to Nickelodeon, where a commercial on diapers was being played. The baby in the commercial sang, "Yes, I did it! Yes, yes, I did it!"
The Spelunkian woman flipped to the Cooking Channel, and the chef said, "Forks and knives! Forks and knives!"
The woman changed to the Electrical Channel, and the mechanic said, "Plug it in! Plug it in!"
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. When she opened it, a cop was there. "Ma'am, we're on a murder case. Did you murder this person?" The cop held up a photo.
"Yes, I did it. Yes, yes, I did it!" The Skeplunkian woman sang.
"I see." Said the cop. "How'd you do it?
"Forks and knives! Forks and knives!" The lady chanted.
"I'm afraid us cops will have to resort to violence. We'll put you in an electrical chair as punishment."
The Skeplunkian woman, not knowing what would come of this, said, "Plug it in! Plug it in!"
...Really long, but will hopefully get some laughs. Feel free to post your own joke or funny story or to just laugh at what's here.

The following advertising blunders are true.
When Coca-Cola was advertised in China, they used characters that stood for the syllables "Ko-ka-ko-la". Unbeknownst to them, there are many characters that spell this out, and unfortunately, they picked ones that spelled out "BITE THE WAX TADPOLE" in Chinese.
When KFC was advertised in China, its slogan "Finger-lickin' good" was mistranslated as "Eat your fingers off".
A long time ago, a little after the Great Depression, the Pope visited Florida. Several stands were selling T-shirts that said "I saw the Pope." Unfortunately, the people printing them were terrible Spanish speakers, and instead of the Spanish ones announcing "I saw the Pope" they declared "I saw the Potato".

ooh! this one's kinda short, but pretty funny:
When we were at Starbuck's (it's a coffeehouse, and I love the place 8)) and there was a stop sign next to the driveway, and just under it there was another sign that said "DO NOT BLOCK DRIVEWAY".
stop. do not block driveway.
Oh, and there was a sign in the middle of a field when I was in Michigan that said "Post No Signs"!
Aw, man, signs like that are my favourite! |

Speakling of signs, I once saw a pair of signs on either side of a driveway. One said "ENTRANCE ONLY" and the other said "DO NOT ENTER".
ENTRANCE ONLY. DO NOT ENTER.
Another sign I saw was on a public bathroom door, and it said "NO BIG BUTTS".
Eem Angry! Eem hit next poster! |

There once was a boy working at an applestand.A cutomer came up and asked "how much r these apples?" and he said he didn't know so his manager said to say "Only 50 cents". Than another customer came up and asked "r these apples fresh"? and he said he didn't know so his manger said to say " Fresh, fresh very fresh. Than another customer came up and asked "should i buy these apples?" He replied he didn't know and his manager sais " If you don't somebody else will". So one day a robber came up to the boy and sked him how much money is in this cash register? " he replied "only 50 cents!" Than the robber said " r u being fresh with me?" The boy said "fresh,fresh very fresh!". Then the robber got irrated and said "should i kill u?" The boy replied "if u don't somebody else will!"
