| I don't get it...then again I'm very bad at jokes. Plus, isn't corny means mushy? What's so mushy about this joke? |

By the way, Jamie, I thought that while he twists around (on the ground), he gets frayed. Do you find that's true?
(or maybe, it's better to add that he rubs himself against the ground ?) |
Twine is too tough to get frayed just by being tied into a knot. |

Here's another corny one:
A motorway and a dual carriageway are sat in the pub mouthing off about how hard they are. "I'm blatantly harder than you" says the dual carriageway "I've got two lanes and a central reservation". "Rubbish" says the motorway "I've got THREE lanes, a central reservation AND a hard shoulder! I'm so much harder than you!!". With that, a small road walks in the pub and the motorway and the dual carriageway cower under the table. The small road walks over to the bar, orders himself a drink knocks it back and has a look around. Unimpressed, the road gets up and leaves. Sheepishly, the dual carriageway and the motorway climb out from under the table. "Look at you two!" says the barman "you're both mouthing off about how hard you are and a small road walks in and you're both terrified and hide under the table!!". " Yeah but you don't wanna mess with him" said the motorway "He's a cycle-path"
NB hard = tough, here. |
