Bad Joke

Post by Luke »

Starting a thread of silly jokes:

Question: Why did the Byzantine empire fall?

Answer: Because it tripped over the Ottoman. :)

Good one.

Yes, I remember tripping over the Ottoman in our living room at Christmastime when all the lights were off except for the Christmas tree.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Funny !! I am chuckling over this joke.
It's clever. Not at all a 'bad' joke. Maybe the title of the thread should be changed.

Keep going, Luke, that was enjoyable.

We can all easily picture the scene of Maria's Christmas-lit living room stumble, too.
Our Ottomans were gold velvet-covered. What about yours ?

I hope she did not hurt herself during the tripping thereof. I have tripped over a lot of things, but I cannot remember if an Ottoman at my folks' place was one of them or not. :)

I am still enjoying this amusing joke. If only all humor today were so clever.
Most of it is pathetic and evil.
