Best Of 2010: JOKES

What's Your Reaction:

"Knock, knock?"
"Who's there?"
"Another great year-end list!"
"Another great year-end list? Boy, am I glad to see you!"

From President Obama to sports, sometimes it almost seemed like there were too many things to joke about in 2010. Professional funnymen like Jay Leno and Jimmy Fallon had their hands full with their evening monologues because of all the news stories and items of interest they needed to joke about. But that's 2010 in a nutshell: The sum total of all events that occurred during it.

Without any further ado, here are the TOP TEN JOKES OF 2010:

#10: What's Barack Obama's favorite panel in a Garfield comic? THE DEATH PANEL.

#9: "Ms. Jones, I figured out what was wrong with your toilet -- it was clogged. You see, the economy was in it."

#8: I was going to buy a Wikibathtub, until I heard that it Wikileaks.

#7: "Did you hear about the The Social Network?" "No, but I read about it ... on Facebook."

#6: "Would you like to go to a fun party?" "Sure, what kind of party is it?" "THE TEA PARTY."

#5: Didja hear the one about the guy who pulled out a magic marker and scribbled all over his iPad? He thought it was a real pad!

#4: Say, didja also hear the one about how George W. Bush beat Barack Obama in a game of basketball? Bush scored more DECISION POINTS.

#3: What do the midterm elections and loud heavy metal music have in common? They both give President Obama a headache.

#2: What did the salad say to the BP oil spill? "Hey, wait a minute, you're not salad dressing!"

#1: Why didn't the Chilean miners go to the dirty picture show? Because it said No Minors Allowed (but they thought it was "Miners").

Mr.Rees is a genius. Just the perfect comic antidote to 2010. Proudly, we think of him as the Bard of Beacon.

#11. Sue Lowden was running for the Senate by saying we can pay our doctor bills in chickens. What next; pay our legal bills with chestnuts? Oh, wait, that's the entailment scene from "To Kill a Mockingbird." Which makes me glad Lowden never read "Gone With the Wind."

#12. I'm Rich Iott. I'm not a Nazi; I just play one on the weekends.

If these are the best jokes of the year, I'm glad it's almost over. Pitiful.

I love Yellow Nape Amazon parrots, except when they start squawking at night and you have to cover their cages. I guess someone "on high" "here" thinks you are one of those because your post to me didn't make the big board. Cant understand why. I'd like to see what you had to say about religion in the military too.
Happy New Year. I will be your fan because you have the parrot for a picture. Our Amazon is named; "Andersen" after Andersen's Split Pea Soup!
Cheers,
FZLO
