Lol. Cute. That should go in the things kids say thread.
Hey, mybe we should revive that thread a bit…
March 5, 2010 6:01 pm at 6:01 pm #1200997anon for thisParticipantsmartcookie, you may be right. But I’d guess some people already know it, and there aren’t that many geeky jokes to begin with, so I thought I’d mention it.
But that reminds me of another joke that is postable:
This guy is listening to a group of people chatting and laughing. They are enjoying themselves so much that he listen in and realizes that they aren’t having an actual conversation. Instead, one person calls out “number 9” and everyone laughs, then as soon as they stop laughing another person calls out “number 32” and they all crack up again. So the guy asks one of the group what’s going on, and he says, “We’re such old friends that we already know each others jokes, so we just refer to them by number instead of telling the whole joke.”
The eavesdropper is fascinated by this & decides to join in. At the next lull in the laughter, he calls, “number 9”, but to his disappointment only a few people laugh. When he asks what he did wrong, he’s told, “You didn’t tell it right.”

March 5, 2010 6:24 pm at 6:24 pm #1200999potpieMemberanon for this: There is another ending for your joke. It goes like this:
This guy is listening to a group of people chatting and laughing. They are enjoying themselves so much that he listen in and realizes that they aren’t having an actual conversation. Instead, one person calls out “number 9” and everyone laughs, then as soon as they stop laughing another person calls out “number 32” and they all crack up again. So the guy asks one of the group what’s going on, and he says, “We’re such old friends that we already know each others jokes, so we just refer to them by number instead of telling the whole joke.”
Suddenly one man calls out “77” and everyone starts laughing as if there is no tomorrow. The eavesdropper turns to someone in the group, and asks, why is everyone laughing so hard at this joke? The member replies, “dis one? dis one we haven’t heard yet.”

March 8, 2010 10:34 pm at 10:34 pm #1201002WolfishMusingsParticipantI haven’t read through the entire thread, so if this one’s here, please forgive me.
Two middle-aged men, Shmuel and Aaron, are learning together in the Beis Midrash. When they come to a break, Shmuel says:
“You know, my daughter is getting married next month. We’ve been learning together for years, and so I’d like to honor you with being one of the witnesses at the ceremony.”
At this, Aaron looks a little embarrased and says: “I’m sorry to do this to you, Shumuel, but, well, I’m afraid I have to turn you down. You see, well, I’m actually not Jewish can can’t serve as a witness.”
“What do you mean you’re not Jewish?” asks Shmuel. “We’ve been learning together for years. How can it be that you’re not Jewish?”
“Well,” answers Aaron, “I’ve always found the learning to be a great intellectual exercise. And, of course, I also like spending time with you. But, in the end, I’m still not Jewish.”
“But hold on,” Shumuel protested. “I’ve seen you keep Shabbos. You know that a non-Jew isn’t allowed to keep Shabbos.”
“Ah,” replied Aaron serenly, “you only *thought* you saw me keep Shabbos. The truth of the matter is that I always kept a key in my pocket when I walked outside. This way I always carried on Shabbos.”
“But there’s an eruv!” said Shmuel.
“Yes,” countered Aaron, “but I don’t hold of the eruv.”

April 26, 2010 5:58 pm at 5:58 pm #1201009GetzelParticipantIt’s the yahrtzeit of Herman Mendelbaum’s death and his
widow decides to make a pilgrimage to the cemetery to recite a prayer
over his grave and place a small stone, as is the tradition, to show
that the deceased is remembered.
She arrives at the cemetery, but it being a while since
she had been there, she is confused and cannot find poor Herman’s grave
site. Finally, she comes across a grounds-keeper who escorts her to a
small chapel on the cemetery grounds where the records are kept. Pouring
over large maps and lists, he finally turns to the widow and says,
“I can find no record of a Herman Mendelbaum buried
here. The closest I can find is a Sadie Mendelbaum.”
“That’s him!” she exclaims. “He always put everything in
my name.”

May 5, 2010 6:11 pm at 6:11 pm #1201013GetzelParticipantThe four Goldberg brothers, Lowell, Norman, Hiram, and Max, invented and developed the first automobile air-conditioner. On July 17, 1946, the temperature in Detroit was 97 degrees.
Henry was curious and invited them into his office. They refused and instead asked that he come out to the parking lot to their car. They persuaded him to get into the car, which was about 130 degrees, turned on the air conditioner, and cooled the car off immediately.
May 7, 2010 1:58 am at 1:58 am #1201014potpieMemberAn Arab guy needed a heart transplant, but prior to the surgery the doctors needed to store his blood type in case the need arises.
Because the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn’t be found locally. So the call went out to a number of countries.
Finally, a Jewish man was located who had the same blood type and who was willing to donate his blood to the Arab guy.
After the surgery, the Arab guy sent the Jewish man a thank you card for giving his blood along with an expensive diamond and a new Rolls Royce car as a token of his appreciation.
Unfortunately, the Arab had to go through a corrective surgery once again.
His doctors called the Jewish man, who was more than happy to donate his blood again.
After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Jewish man a thank you card and a box of Almond Roca sweets.
The Jewish man was shocked to see that this time the Arab did not acknowledge his kind gesture in the same way as he had done the first time.
So he phoned the Arab and asked him why he had expressed his appreciation in not a very generous manner.
The Arab man replied :
“Ya habibi !!,
I have Jewish blood now, remember..!?

May 23, 2010 11:30 pm at 11:30 pm #1201021potpieMemberA Hasidic Jew walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan, so the man hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank. Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.An employee drives the Rolls into the bank’s underground garage and parks it there.Two weeks later, the man returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.The loan officer says, “We are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?”The Hasidic Jew replied, “Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks?”

A man had front row, 50 yard line tickets for the Super Bowl. As he sits down, a man comes down and asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him. “No,” he says, “The seat is empty.” “This is incredible,” said the man. “Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the Super Bowl, the biggest sporting event in the world, and not use it?” He says, “Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first Super Bowl we haven’t been to together since we got married in 1987.” “Oh … I’m sorry to hear that. That’s terrible. But couldn’t you find someone else, a friend or relative, or even a neighbor to take the seat?” The man shakes his head. “No, they’re all at her funeral.”

the Jewish Dog
Morty visits Dr. Saul, the veterinarian, and says, ‘My dog has a problem.’
Dr. Saul says, ‘So, tell me about the dog and the problem.’
‘It’s a Jewish dog. His name is Irving and he can talk,’ says Morty.
‘He can talk?’ the doubting doctor asks.
‘Watch this!’ Morty points to the dog and commands: ‘ Irving , Fetch!’
Irving, the dog, begins to walk toward the door, then turns around and says, ‘So why are you talking to me like that? You always order me around like I’m nothing. And you only call me when you want something. And then you make me sleep on the floor, with my arthritis. You give me this disgusting food with all the salt and fat, and you tell me it’s a special diet. It tastes like dreck! YOU should eat it yourself! And do you ever take me for a decent walk? NO, it’s out of the house, a short walk around the garden, and right back home. Maybe if I could stretch out a little, the sciatica wouldn’t kill me so much! I should roll over and play dead for real for all you care!’
Dr. Saul is amazed, ‘This is remarkable! So, what’s the problem?’
Morty says, ‘He has a hearing problem! I said ‘Fetch,’ not ‘Kvetch.”

May 27, 2010 12:30 am at 12:30 am #1201039ImanonovParticipantFirst Jewish Woman President
The year is 2016 and the United States has elected the first woman as well as the first Jewish president, Susan Goldfarb.
She calls up her mother a few weeks after election day and says, “So, Mom, I assume you will be coming to my inauguration.
“I don’t think so. It’s a ten hour drive, your father isn’t as young as he used to be, and please my arthritis is acting up again.”
“Don’t worry about it Mom, I’ll send Air Force One to pick you up and take you home. And a limousine will pick you up at your door.”
“I don’t know. Everybody will be so fancy-schmantzy, what on earth would I wear?”
“Oh Mom” replies Susan, “I’ll make sure you have a wonderful gown custom-made by the best designer in New York “
“Honey,” Mom complains, “you know I can’t eat the fancy foods that you and your friends like to eat.”
The President-to-be responds, “Don’t worry Mom. The entire affair is going to be handled by the best caterer in New York! , kosher all the way. Please, Mom, I really want you to come.”
So Mom reluctantly agrees and on January 21, 2017, Susan Goldfarb is being sworn in as President of the United States.
In the front row sits the new president’s mother, who leans over to a senator sitting next to her.
“You see that woman over there with her hand on the Torah, becoming President of the United States ?”
The Senator whispers back, “Yes, I do.”
Says Mom proudly, “Her brother is a doctor.”
