Half a peach
Warning, very few people actually find this one funny...
It's not sick or anything, just very odd. I think it's the best joke ever. So a guy walks into a bar, the bartender is taken completely off guard because the man has a half a peach for a head. Bartender "Why do you have a half a peach for a head?" Guy "well, it's an interesting story... a long time ago, I was traveling thru the middle east and wouldn't you know it, I came across a genie's lamp!" Bartender "Really?!" Guy "Swear to god! So, obvously, the Genie granted me three wishes. For my first wish, I wished for more money than I could ever use, and BAM! there was a pile of money that I couldn't see the top of!" Bartender "Wow!" Guy "that's what I said! For my second wish, I wished for a beautiful woman that would love me and cherish me and be with me forever, and BAM! there was this beautiful woman hanging all over me!" Bartender "Holy crap!" Guy "Exactly! For my third wish... and here's where I think I went wrong... I wished for a half a peach for a head." Be interested to see who finds this one funny. |

If you haven't read the joke, read it before I ruin it by explaining it.
The reason that the joke is funny has more to do with expectations than the punch line itself. People will expect a clever and/or funny explanation for the last wish of him getting a half peach head. People are wondering in their heads, while hearing or reading the joke, 'under what circumstance would this guy accedentally or have to make such a wish?'. Then when you get to the last line, it's just he made a mistake making the wish. No clever typical joke ending. Thats what's so funny. |

Gold! That's my new favourite joke...already told half a dozen people. They either crack up, or give me the kind of look that makes me think they're a bit concerned for my mental health. Then I crack up.

the one ive heard is:
A gay guy and a straight guy were in an elevator. The straight guy asks, "do you want any mustard?" To which the gay guy responds, "what, do you think im a rock?!" this one ppl inevitably think about for a while, because it seems like there could be a pun...and if u plan in advance to get other people around you to laugh, the odd man out will definitely laugh too |
