Two OSU fans walk into a bar.
/This month we return to our most popular kind of joke (X walks into a bar). This week's joke involves two fans of Ohio State University. Do you get the humor?
Cannibal Joke
/
Two cannibals are eating a clown for dinner.
What's So Funny?
In English, when we think something tastes strange or not quite normal, we say it tastes funny. In this joke, the word "funny" has a second meaning because clowns are funny and make us laugh!
Dog Martini Joke
/
A dog walks into a bar and orders a martini.
What's So Funny?
This joke relies on the mismatch of intentions. When the bartender asks his question, his focus (and surprise) is on seeing a DOG ordering martinis. When the dog answers, its focus is on the terribly high PRICES of the drinks. Humor often relies on switching expectations between the beginning of the joke and the punchline.
Birthday Fridge
/What is the best part of giving someone a refrigerator for his/her birthday?
What's So Funny?
The expression "your face lights up" means you are so happy that your face becomes brighter. A refrigerator has an automatic switch inside that turns on the light inside when the door is opened. The light shines on the contents of the fridge and the face of the person who opened the door.
