I didn’t think of that joke (or, IIRC, any of those jokes) myself.
Just thought I’d make that clear.
(I STILL haven’t gone through most of the newish posts…)
“I didn’t think of that joke (or, IIRC, any of those jokes) myself.
Just thought I’d make that clear.”
And I didn’t think of any of my responses myself.
I cant be bothered reading the whole thread, so I apologize if this one has already been said:
Two blondes were sitting together on a bench. The first blonde turns to her friend and asks, “Which do you think is further away, Florida or the moon?”
The other blonde rolls her eyes and responds, “Hellooooo, can you SEE Florida?!”
CIJ, ha ha!
Non-Jews make Yo Mama jokes.
Jews make Yo Mama-in-Law jokes.
Three blondes were discussing their vacation plans. The first wanted to go to California. The others convinced her not to go because there could be an earthquake. The second wanted to go on a cruise, but the other two convinced her that she would probably drown. The third wanted to go to the sun. They pointed out that the sun is too hot, but she told them she planned to go at night. They helped her pack.
I had a couple of jokes in other threads which apparently nobody got so I will repost them here:
1)http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/seminary-vs-sherut-leumi/page/2#post-537600 (the third part)
2)http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/how-do-you-translate-your-hebrew-name/page/2#post-537424
I left out the space so the above links don’t work.
So here they are:

A nun walks into a bar.
The bartender looks up: “Where are the rest of the Aleph Beis?”
“Rebbe…is it ok for me to go to the opera?”
“Why do u ask?” asks the Rav.
“I thought maybe there was an issue of Kol Isha?”
“Well”, said the Rav thoughtfully. “You aren’t oiver until the fat lady sings!”
from mitt romney:
Obama goes to a bank to cash a check w/o id. so the teller asks him to prove who he is, saying that just before when golfer Phil Mickelson and tennis player Andre Agassihave had also tried to cash a check w/o id, Mickelson had proven hid identity by hitting a golf ball into a cup, and Agassi by hitting a tennis ball at a target.
Coffeeroom ages… I think (I can’t be bothered checking!) the same joke is on here somewhere back in the 34 pages about BUSH!
Randomex:
So our whole interaction started when you made this joke:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/good-jokes/page/32#post-535269 and I pointed out that it was at odds with a different version of the joke that had previously been posted:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/mixed-gym#post-455405
Well I have to retract my objection because it turns out that there was another version of the joke already posted:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/worst-joke-contest/page/3#post-334455 , by the same person, which accords with neither of the two other versions, and thus that poster’s versions lose their credibility.

Interesting to stumble across this post of yours now – I
only just now went through Davar Katan’s methods
of addressing you*! At the time, I assumed each would
simply be a different variant of your name or initials,
and didn’t bother going through them. A mistake, of course. 🙂
(It really is “Sir Patur” now that I’ve knighted you**, eh?)
“Well I have to retract my objection because it turns out that there was another version of the joke already posted by the same person which accords with neither of the two other versions, and thus that poster’s versions lose their credibility.”
Well, I think I have to retract my concession of defeat, or at least of unwillingness to continue battle.
1. The other version had credibility at the time. However, it never had authority (the CR is not generally a source work), so I don’t think there ever was a reason to object to a slightly different version of a joke. In other words, even if it were a
reasonable expectation for me to have read the “mixed gym” thread version, and even if I had in fact read and remembered it, I would need no justification for posting a different version.
2. The newly discovered version actually does generally accord with the version I posted, and I appreciate the addition of the word “initial.” (The only major difference between any of them
is the “experimental error” line, which I don’t care for.)
Perhaps you can tell me the nature of “the joke […] embedded within the depths of the argument,” as I am unaware of it (I’m not saying that it doesn’t exist).

Speaking of jokes, here’s one from the “soft matzah” thread:

showjoe:
The political joke you posted is misleading – only individuals
known for a particular physical skill can demonstrate their
identity (to an extent). Supposing Barack Obama had been a smashing
success as a President – what could he do to prove his identity?
Acting presidential for once.

I can’t because I also didn’t get it.
PAA:
Not getting a joke doesn’t make you incapable of retelling it,
and if you were unaware of what the joke itself is, how did you
know there was a joke there at all?
Besides, there was more to my post than that one question, and I could say the same thing about some of your other recent responses to me (though not the Ir Miklat one)…
I don’t know what the joke is. Retelling it would just mean reposting the words which if you didn’t see the joke the first time, wouldn’t help you.
Besides, there was more to my post than that one question
I assume you’re asking me to address the rest of your post.
and I could say the same thing about some of your other recent responses to me (though not the Ir Miklat one)…
Not sure what this is about.
I can’t because I also didn’t get it.
I don’t know what the joke is.
So PAA, are you admitting that the discussion you were having, which you claimed is “a real joke which will make people happy/laugh”, did not have anything funny to it (and if it did, you didn’t “get it”)?
SiDi™
So PAA, are you admitting that the discussion you were having, which you claimed is “a real joke which will make people happy/laugh”, did not have anything funny to it (and if it did, you didn’t “get it”)?
If you replace “and” with “or” then I will admit to the part in parentheses.
PAA:
“I don’t know what the joke is.”
Then how do you know it exists?
“reposting the words which if you didn’t see the
joke the first time, wouldn’t help you.”
It would tell me the specific location of the joke,
unless you were to claim that all our posts up to your
claim that there was a joke were part of the joke.
(It would certainly not be the first time you’d be
using an argument that contravenes common sense
despite being logical. There, I said it.)
“I assume you’re asking me to address the rest of your post.”
Correct. And the same goes for the posts you were responding to
with this
and this
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/chofetz-chaim-yeshivos-1/page/2#post-541679
– that’s what “I could say the same thing about some of your
other recent responses” was about, though it wasn’t the best
phrasing on my part (and they’re not chronologically recent).
Those responses did not exactly inspire me to put in the effort
necessary for a “forest animal” thread response…
Randomex:
I have now responded in both of those threads. And while we’re on the topic, you owe me about five responses in the creative writing thread (and perhaps in the wizard of oz thread).
PAA:
That leaves this one. I’m sure you’ll get around to it.
I claim disproportionate retribution (and wall-of-text syndrome)
in the Ir Miklat thread. I am indeed indebted to you in other cases (though I haven’t read those responses yet), and look forward to repaying you (probably some time tomorrow, though probably not in full at that time). 🙂
Thanks for killing the Jokes thread. It was VERY funny, PAA. When you figure out the non-existent joke, let us know…
SiDi™

claim that there was a joke were part of the joke.
Something like that, I think.
I was going to ask what one is supposed to do when logic and common sense are at odds with each other but then I decided that your post might have only meant that not everything that makes logical sense is common sense but not that something which is common sense could defy logic.
SayIDidIt:
My profusest of apologies (Randomex, I think I just made up another word).
By the way (SayIDidIt, not Randomex), my response to you from the PROJECT IMPROVE thread can be seen on my profile page since the moderator(s) did not want Freudian Psychology in that thread. But you might have some trouble deciphering it since all the Hebrew letters were converted into question marks.
That is, by the way, an assumption
An assumption supported by the data of at least five attempted postings. But you’re right; it could be that the Moderator was fine with Freudian Psychology and just doesn’t like Patur Aval Assur.
I’m not sure how you determined that those were the only two factors. :-/
That was the closest I’ve ever come to using an emoticon. I actually put one in but I just couldn’t bear it so I deleted it.
Which emoticon?
Is there one that means that what I said was actually serious but I don’t want the moderators to get insulted so I put in an emoticon? (You can read this post with an emoticon too if you so desire.)
I’m not sure how you determined that those were the only two factors. :-/
There was a third factor (which I in fact mentioned there) but the Hebrew translation was supposed to get around that factor.
Just to clarify:
Even though I’m serious, I’m joking around so don’t take it personally.
Lawyer: “Were you acquainted with the deceased?”
Witness: “Yes sir.”
Lawyer: “Before or after he died?”
Lawyer: “Could you see him from where you were standing?”
Witness: “I could see his head.”
Lawyer: “And where was his head?”
Witness: “Just above his shoulders.”
In honor of all the seminary threads:
Q. What’s the difference between B’nos Sarah and B’nos Chavah?
A. B’nos Chavah accepts non-Jews too. (According to Popa, they both accept non-Jews but ??????? ????? the Gemara in Avodah Zara 27a.)
the police decide that they are going to do the opposite of what they usually do and stand at a check point in order to pull over a perfect driver and give him $1000. they stand and wait and finally they see 1 driver driving within the speed limit, not on his cell phone, both hands on the steering wheel…..and decide this is their man. they pull him over and inform him that this is his lucky day. while writing out the check they ask him what he plans on doing with the $.
“you know,” he says, “ive always wanted a drivers license! i think im going to invest in getting myself one!
just then his wife jumps up and says “oh officer, he has no idea what hes talking about! hes drunk!!
then a man pipes up from the back seat “thats nonsense! he would never have stolen this car if he was drunk!!
at this point the police think they have heard it all when a kid pops out of the trunk and calls “hey r we over the boarder yet?!
