When I was a teenager, my friends and I would tell this joke to people to test them to see if they were an honest person, or a fake person. Here's the joke: Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub. One penguin said, "Pass the soap." The other penguin said, "What do you think I am, a microwave?" Then we'd say, "Get it? A microwave!" and crack up laughing, to see if they laughed along with us. We had lots of people who thought it was funny. (I know, we were terrible!) :0)
Your challenge is to take the first sentence and add to it and make it into a real joke - and hopefully a funny one. Here is your first sentence again:
Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub
Have fun!

Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub.
ReplyDeleteThe first penguin says, "If we still lived in the Arctic we wouldn't need to bother with a bath.
The other penguin says, "Oh, I don't mind the bath tub so much, but the dryer is killer!
The first penguin says to the second one, "No, Penelope! Remember what mother always told us: 'When you're away from home, whatever you do, don't drink the water!'"
ReplyDeleteTwo penguins were sitting in a bathtub. One penguin said, "Pass the soap." The other penguin said, "Gulp, ok, but it's going to take a few hours?"
ReplyDeleteTwo penguins were sitting in the bathtub. It was full of cold water. One penguin said, "I wish Mom hadn't brought us to Florida for our vacation. We haven't been anywhere but the bathtub because the weather is so hot. When are we going home?"
ReplyDeleteThe other penguin said, "I don't know, but when she comes in, Alaska." (Hmm, think in Texas accent :0s)
Kindred Spirit, yours is pretty funny!
Two penguins were sitting in the bathtub. The first one said, "If we had some ice, this would be almost like swimming at home."
ReplyDeleteThe second one agreed, and called room service to send up some ice. The bellboy arrived, ringing the buzzer to their room, and handing over the ice.
They dumped in the ice, and climbed back in. The first one said, "No, this is still not cold enough. Call for more ice."
So the second one phoned room service again, ordering more ice, which was delivered promptly. They dumped the ice into the tub and climbed back in.
The first one said, "No, this STILL isn't cold enough. Call for more ice." So the second one did just that.
When room service arrived, the bellboy said, :I don't mean to pry, but this is the third time you've called for ice. Is there some sort of problem?"
The first penguin said, "Yes, there's a problem. We wanted our bathwater to be nice and cold just like at home, but no matter how much ice we pour in, it just doesn't seem to be enough."
"Um, guys," he replied, "that's a HOT-TUB."
I didn't make this one up, so it doesn't count, but I just thought you'd get a giggle (from MR. GIGGLES):
ReplyDeleteTwo penguins are in a bathtub. One says "Pass the soap."
The other says, "HOLY CRAP! A TALKING PENGUIN!"

ReplyDeleteAnd one says to the other:
"I wish I had some Chollanese Fingers...."
Oh wait....
Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub, a dad and son, which is kind of weird but they're penguins, and weird is relative (keep my relatives out of this)
ReplyDeleteand the little penguin, (that would be the youngest one even though I didn't mention that before, but I have now so deal with it)
says to the dad penguin (which is the big one- duh)
"Dad", (see?) I'm I a 100%, full blooded penguin?"
and the Dad penguin, says "Sure, your mom and I are 100% pure blooded penguins, that would make you a 100%, pure blooded penguin.
(lest you think other wise this is no Harry Potter rip-off, like Harry and the Half-Blood Penguin, because that would be stupid)
So the little penguin gets out of the tub and goes to his mom (after he dries off and puts on some clothes- I dunno a tuxedo or somethin') and as she is cooking dinner, he asks her, "Mom am I a 100%, genuine penguin?"
And his mom takes the cigar out of her mouth and says, "Well, yeah, both of your grandparents are 100% genuine penguins so I guess that makes you 100% genuine penguin too. Why do you ask?"
"Well, its just that- I really HATE fish."
Okay, anyone else out there? Post your answers now!
ReplyDeleteTwo penguins are in a bathtub. One says, "Pass the soap."
ReplyDeleteThe other says, "You are tedious."
Thanks for making me laugh, Mr Giggles!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a joke because I am just not funny. My husband has one, but I can't remember it well enough, so go ahead and skip me this time.
Ok, I guess I'd better call this (so as not to drag this on and appear too "tedious"). :0)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for giving me a smile with all the jokes and banter!
I was really liking the Chollanese Fingers joke, but alas it wasn't finished....
Before I tell the winner, you have to read my joke that I just made up:
Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub
One penguin said to the other,
"Is it just me or is there a fishy smell in here?"
The other penguin said, "It's just you." :0)
Come on, laugh! You know it's funny!
Okay, the joke that actually caused me to chuckle was Inklings "Alaska" joke. And yup, I'm fer shur sayin' it with a Texas accent. Congratulations Inklings, you are the winner of this round! Woo-hoo!
