Pfft, an Oxford comma wasn't what was needed, a list comma after 'television' would have been enough. But I digress, great list of grammatical hilarities.

Maybe they should change it to the panda joke: "An Oxford comma walks into a bar where it eats shoots and leaves."

A CANADIAN JOKE

 

A photographer on vacation in Orlando was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '$10,000 per call'.

The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.

The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God.

The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

Next stop was in Atlanta . There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.

He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.

She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.

'O.K., thank you,' said the American.

He then traveled to Indianapolis , Washington DC , Philadelphia , Boston and New York .

In every church he saw the same golden telephone

With the same '$10,000 per call' sign under it.

The American, upon leaving Vermont decided to travel up to Canada to see if Canadians had the same phone.

He arrived in Canada , and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '40 cents per call.'

The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. 'Father, I've traveled all over America and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in the US the price was $10,000 per call.

Why is it so cheap here?’

The priest smiled and answered, 'You're in Canada now, son ... it's a local call.'

This guy has been posting dad jokes for most of the week, but this one alludes to something sometimes discussed in these forums. I guess I could have posted this in a Viagra thread, but here will do just fine.

Do you know when a bad joke becomes a dad joke?

 

when it becomes apparent

The man that invented the hokey pokey - Jacob Bromberg - died at the age of 98.

 

The hardest part of preparing him for the viewing was putting the body in the coffin....

 

they put the left leg in,

and then

all hell broke loose.

One day President Trump fell off a bridge and was saved by three young boys.

 

Trump thanked them and said he'd give them all one of whatever they wanted.

 

The first boy asked for a trip to Disney Land and Trump said “absolutely!”

 

The second boy asked for a pair of Nike Air Jordan’s and Trump said “done!”

 

The third boy asked for a wheel chair with a plasma TV, cup holders and hydrolics.

 

Trump, looking puzzled at the boy, asked “why do you want a tricked out wheel chair? You don’t look disabled!”

 

The young boy replied, "Yeah, but I will be after my father finds out that I saved you"
