A lot of today's humor seems to be crass, mean spirited, and aiming for shock value. What happened to the old format of a joke with a set up and a punchline. Anybody have such a joke they want to share?

I don't :(

This one I learned at camp.....


A panda walks into a bar, sits down and orders a sandwich. He eats the sandwich, pulls out a gun and shoots the waiter dead.

As the panda stands up to go, the bartender shouts, "Hey! Where are you going? You just shot my waiter and you didn't pay for your sandwich!"

The panda yells back at the bartender, "Hey, I'm a PANDA! Look it up!" The bartender opens his dictionary and sees the following definition for panda:

"A tree dwelling marsupial of Asian orgin, characterized by distinct black and white coloring. Eats shoots and leaves."

A new pastor was visiting the homes of his parishioners. 

At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a card and wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of it and stuck it in the door. 

When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, Genesis 3:10." 

Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter. 

Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock." Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid, for I was naked."

lol, i read that book in my english class senior year of high school. Still have it lying around somewhere

Why did the cookie go to the doctor?

… Because he felt crummy.

There was a blonde that lived in a small house on the corner of 4th Avenue.

She had a small shed in her backyard where she kept gardening tools. One day, she thought she saw smoke coming out of the roof of the shed.

In a panic she called 911. They answered and said "This is Joe, is there an emergency?"

The blonde replied "Yes my shed is on fire!!!" Joe said, "Don't panic help in on the way...where do you live?"

The blonde said, "IN A HOUSE, NOW HURRY!!"

Joe calmly responded back, "How are we supposed to get there?"

The blonde answered back, "DUH!!! A BIG RED TRUCK!"

That last joke was mean spirited toward blondes. I'll have my own joke in the future.

Fine I conceed that last one was.

There were three men on a hill with their watches. 

The first man threw his watch down the hill and it broke. 

The second man threw his watch down the hill and it broke. 

The third man threw his watch down the hill, walked all the way to the bottom, and caught it. 

The other two men were puzzled and asked the third man how he did it. 

The third man said, "Easy. My watch is 5 minutes slow!"
