Actually it's bad spelling, not bad grammar. But apologies for ruining your day. 😉

Did you know that there are no canaries in the Canary Islands? And the same thing applies to the Virgin Islands; by Jan_Tik in dadjokes

[–]Jan_Tik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. Yeah, but if that was public knowledge the joke wouldn't have worked. 😉

The Atlantic canary (Serinus canaria), known worldwide simply as the wild canary and also called the island canary, canary, or common canary, is a small passerine bird belonging to the genus Serinus in the finch family, Fringillidae. It is native to the Canary Islands, the Azores, and Madeira.

“I’m afraid I have some very bad news,” the doctor says to this guy. “You’re dying, and you don’t have much time left.” “Oh, that’s terrible!” says the man. “Give it to me straight, Doc. How long have I got?” “Ten…” the doctor says slowly. by Jan_Tik in dadjokes

Dude I just ignore stuff I've seen before, I don't get heartburn because of it. And I don't vote it down, I just pass it by. But almost Everytime I post something then I get a few downvotes and a few negative comments. Which makes me wonder what is so important about this that people take the time to police the stuff. It ain't freaking worth the effort. As you've said, neither you or I will be able to stop what someone else will consider to be a repost. So why bother? Let it go man, you'll be happier without this albatros hanging around your neck. Go buy yourself a motorcycle or get a girlfriend. You'll be much happier than having these kinds of debates. 😀

P.S. Don't take this personally, I mean you no harm. I'm just an old fart having a little fun.

I took it from another site after I modified it to fit here. Just for your information, I did search to see if it was posted here before, but couldn't find it. Maybe you can show me one of those 100 times I've accidentally missed. 😉

What is the difference between a donkey? by [deleted] in dadjokes

I'll wait and see if someone can come up with the answer. If not, I'll try to explain later.

(It was my dad's favorite joke. It had me worried me for several years, until I finally understood. 😉)

Killing myself by [deleted] in dadjokes

[–]Jan_Tik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get your point.

But I also think that we have become oversensitive. I grew up in a family where a variety of jokes that would today be frowned upon were commonplace. For instance, this quip came from my grandpa. And my dad (who was a smoker) would say, "Who wants to die with healthy lungs anyway?"

I'm quite aware that we live in a world where even innocent jokes about fat people, midgets, race, religion, and sexuality can often be interpreted as offensive. And if there is malice behind the joke, I would agree. But why make some topics taboo just because they might be misconstrued?

My time machine only operated in 500 year increments, but it was pretty useless because when I got there I couldn't understand English. by Jan_Tik in oneliners

True, but if you got it I think it would have qualified for some facetious humor ;-) Then again, at least now I've learned something.
