With two pairs of a pair of tickets to the ‘Not The Edinburgh festival But Better…’comedy festival this weekend at the Mermaid Arts Centre, Bray, Co Wicklow we asked you: tell us a joke.

You cracked gags of varying degrees of chuckleness in their dozens.

Emma at the Mermaid sez:

We had to avoid picking the dirtier jokes cos like we’re all profesh here, so the winners of the two pairs of weekend passes are: David for his many jokes, our favourites below and Mikeyfex ‘cos these Mermaids never heard that one (below) before….

David:

1. “Two buckets of sick were walking down the road. One said to the other, “I was brought up around here.”

2. Poor young Sean is a little dyslexic. One day in the science lab., his schoolmate said to him, “Can you smell sulphur dioxide?” Sean said, “Smell it? I can’t even smell my own name!”

3. A drunk goes up to the pianist and says, “Can you play a jazz chord?” “Yeah, here you go, G flat demented nineteenth.” “No,” says the drunk, “A jazz chord!” “Ok, how’s about P blunt flattened eleventeenth?” “No, you know, a jazz chord.” And the drunk starts to sing, “A jazz chord – – to say – – I love you.”

Mikeyfex: Two friends are hunting and one accidentally shoots the other in the chest. He goes down and is unconscious. In a blind panic the first guy rings 999. He gets through and says ‘I’ve accidentally just shot my friend. I think I’ve killed him! What can I do!’. The operator says ‘sir remain calm, first of all I want you to make sure he is dead, can you do that?’. The operator hears the man drop the phone, then he hears two gun shots, and the phone is picked up again. ‘Ok,  what next?’

Thanks all.
