Post: I love to laugh

I'm a simple emigrant and I love to laugh

Surely you’ve heard stereotypes about the German sense of humor, or rather its absence. But I wouldn’t say that: my girlfriends are quite the laughers. Remarkably, but even different cultural experiences rarely prevent us from understanding each other’s jokes. Recently I found at home a forgotten book of folk creativity – it’s in the photo – and thought, well who doesn’t love old, good jokes and punny wordplay. I picked three random jokes, here—check out the level of humor 😁 There are three in the office. One of them works. Who are they? Two clerks and one fan! Two police officers found a corpse near a gymnasium. One asks the other: “Hey, how do you spell ‘gymnasium’?” The other thought and suggested: “Let’s take it to the post office!” Jonas sits by a sewer and pokes at it with a stick. A passerby asks: “What are you doing here?” “Yeah, my jacket fell into it!” “Will you still wear it?” “No, but my sandwich is in the pocket!” Well, how do you like it? It’s a pity you can’t add laughter to a post like in sitcoms 😅 Write in the comments the page and line, I’ll send you more jokes; we’ll basically fortune-tell from the book! And let me know if you need the jokes in their original texts. #madeinGermany #language
