"Orange who?"
 

"Orange you glad I didn't say banana?"

Why should we be glad now? I have never understood.

Dork. Orange you glad I didn't say d*mbass?




:lol: :lol: :lol:




I kid. That's what I do.

You're not doing a bad job..... :lol:

... and orange is a snack.....

Spanks. Spanks a lot.




Orange is a color, too!

I believe the repetition of the word "Banana" in this joke is intended to bring about intense rage directed at the fruit. This rage can only be relieved by none other than the word "Orange". For centuries the joke had no "Orange" punch line as it was a ploy of the monkeys to keep the delicious yellow crop all for themselves. Still to this day the true identity of the "Orange" bringer is unknown, and orange we glad for his genius.

Am I missing something here? Because I think I left my trunk in Philadelphia.

But did you ever wonder what came first, the color or the fruit?

Do you prefer freshly squeezed or from concentrate?

Or the flavor?




I win!(oh wait, that's a different thread).:laugh:

Once LATE at night on a weekend (puff puff) I wrote the following:

Bananas ripen on the vine at night
in the morning you can eat them
put them in your cereal if you like
or peel and eat them then

all your life you've never eaten anything as good
such a spicy fruit flavor
would you have another with me together
would you like them fried

BANAAAAAAANNNAAAASSSSS

or something like that AND it was MF'ING hysterical at the time - so, yes, I am glad I said banana :cool:

:laugh:

Put that in your pipe and smoke it Chiquita Banana Girl! LOL!

This **** is bananas.

I want an orange julius RIGHT FRIGGIN NOW!!!!:lol:

Are we forbidden from talking about the Deanna/religion thread?:confused: :confused: :confused:
I waited allllllll day to post, so I'd put it exactly as I wanted it.........now, I can't.:shocked:

I'm not sure what hapened there. WHat does it mean when something is moved?

Did it get a little too feisty in there?

It's like the five second delay in radio or tv. :lol: When threads get "unruly," we dump them.

The mods felt that it did. It may reappear, though.

Yes, I figured that might happen there. Too bad people cant keep their emotions in check sometimes. Oh well, I guess we're all guilty of that sometimes.

So nobody knows the answer? Or are you just not willing to take the question seriously?

Because "Banana" is said over and over again in the joke, the person being told joke is supposed to be confused as to why this is happening. Then the joke teller says the orange bit and the listener has a good chuckle. :shrug: If there's a deeper layer to this you'll have to fill me in. I'm the type of person who plays with a rubix cube for about two seconds then resorts to switching the stickers around. :woohoo:

Banana is said over and over again? Popular culture must omit this portion of the joke most of the time.

Well how bout you tell me the joke in it's entirety as you know it and we'll go from there. I'll have my secretary put on a fresh pot of coffee and hold my calls. As I do when giving things thought I will be wearing my monacle. I have a spare monacle also if you like. :woohoo:

Add a "Knock knock" and a "who's there" before the title and the first half of the first post of the thread and you've got my understand of the joke thus far. I think we may need to recruit some experts in the field to clear some of this up. Our feeble minds, well, you know.

Here we go, I copied and pasted it from a website! Me so clever! (the monacle, it works wonders) :)

Knock, knock
Who's there?
Banana
Banana who?
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Banana
Banana who?
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Orange
Orange who?
Orange you glad I didn't say banana?

So.....orange you glad?

But you were thrown a shocking curve with the orange thing. You were made a fool of. Nobody is glad to be made a fool of. These people should be ashamed of themselves for creating such a spiteful, hurtful joke and spreading it around the world. Sickening. I may not get to sleep tonight.

I know the answer. And I never take your questions seriously.

Heavens no! That joke is as pure as the driven snow. Now if wicked spirited Tom Foolery is what you'd like an example of, have a look at this:

What were you eating under there?

The unsuspecting victim answers:

Under where?

The listener has now admited to eating underwear and shall suffer this shame until his or her doom.

Or what up the Up Dog one?

Human A asks - Is it me or does it smell like Up Dog in here?

Human B must inevitably ask What's "Up Dog"?

What human B doesn't realize is that he just unknowingly asked Human A "What's up?" and called him "dog." Human A of course rubs it in by responding with "Nothin' much, how 'bout you" and Human B slinks away into the night feeling used and manipulated. I may not sleep for the next couple of nights.

Now that is a doozy, I certainly wouldn't want that to happen to me. It does remind me of another ruthless trickster of a joke though:

The teller says

Say "I" then spell "cup"

The victim, willing to go along out of couriosity replies

I-C-U-P

Thus branding the victim a peeper leaving no bathroom door unlocked in his or her presence.

All my kids loved to 'get' me with this one when they were a certain age. They would get me repeatedly and thought it was hysterical. They couldn't believe how I'd fall for it every time. ;)

My own brother got me with that one just a couple months ago, dadgum him anyway. I totally didn't see it coming. I'm still plotting revenge, so I'm open to non violent PG or lower rated suggestions.

Kelly :)

I always tried to get people but they never fell for it, I'm like the worst prankster on the planet, LOL!

Try it on your Mama...*she'll* fall for it!! ;) ;)

Kelly :)

I so have to use that. Brilliant!!!

Here's my favorite:

Ask him

What did the farmer say when he lost his tractor?

Then you giggle alot and insist he guess and guess, he will become very aggitated.

The answer is:

Where's my tractor?

That's like my favorite joke, I don't even know where the heck I heard it, LOL.

Oh, there it is. I'll let you know how it goes, since this is a team effort. He's hard to get though, but I'm hopeful. THANKS!

OMG! My mom falls for anything, LOL! It's a pro sport in our family to pick on her. One time at the gas station she couldn't figure out how to work the pump, she had the clerk barking at her over the speaker and me bagging on her about not knowing how to work it, LOL! So she finally gets so mad that she sticks the nozzle to the window and threatens to spray gas all over me, which was super funny cause how could she spray gas on me if she couldn't get it to work? LOL!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Cool! :thumbsup: I'm excited to hear the results!

:lol: :lol: Oh my gosh!! She sounds like so much fun. But actually, that sounds like a situation I might find myself in from time to time. I mean, WHY does every single gas pump require the debit card to be inserted differently? Who can remember? And the dumb illustration is just, well...confusing. :confused: :lol: I feel her pain.

Kelly :)
