I went to the doctor with a very sore head. After physical examination, he said to me that I had a head chock full of wee sweetie mice. I said to him, "I wondered why I was eating so much cheese!"

I remembered this joke while reading the military service thread.
during WW2 an american soldier on leave was on a train. All the seats were taken, except for one but a rich lady
had her little dog on it, and despite being asked refused to let the soldier sit dowm.
He once again looked up and down the train but no seats were available, so he returned to the rich lady and
again asked if she would move her dog and let him rest on the seat. Once again she refused.
So in anger he picked up the little dog and threw it out the window and sat down. ....... an old man sitting
opposite leand forward and said " son, I think you may have thrown the wrong bitch off the train "
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."

You stop thinking you’re being yelled at every time you hear “Hey!”

You talk of –10C as ”10 degrees cold”, when in Australia +10C would be considered cold. And who else calls +1C, ”one degree warm”!

Why do Swedes always drink their milk in the store?
Because on the packet it says "oppnas har". ("Open here")
Once there came a customer into the store and asked, "Kan jag få två smørgåssar?" (May I have two sandwitches?). The store-clerk then asked, "Are you Swedish?" whereupon the customer said, "Er det fordi jag sa 'smørgåssar de skjønnte at jag var svensk?" (is it because I said 'smørgåssar' i.e. the swedish word for sandwitch, you knew I was a Swede?). The clerk made a cunning smirk, "No, it is because you're in a hardware store."
Two Swedes were in Norway on a visit and they were wondering about all the beautiful buildings. One of the Swedes went over to a Norwegian and asked how they managed to build such beautiful buildings. The Norwegian brought the Swede to a wall and laid his hand on it. Then he asked the Swede to hit it. First the Swede didn't want to, but then finally he hit as hard as he was able to. The Norwegian quickly pulled his hand out of the way and the Swede got all his knuckles smashed. The Norwegian said, "It's a question of intelligence."
The Swede went back to his buddy who wondered if he'd gotten his question answered. - "Yes," the he answered and put his hand on his forehead, "Hit my hand!"..
Warning! This is “NSFW” so please be aware it’s rude...
Sean Connery was interviewed by Parkinson, and bragged that despite his elderly years, he could still have sex three times a night. Cilla Black, who was also a guest, looked intrigued. After the show, Cilla said, "Sean, if I am not being too forward, I’d love to have sex with you. Let’s go back to my place." So they go back to her place and have great sex. Afterwards, Sean says, "If you think that wash good, let me shleep for half an hour, and we can have even better shex. But while I’m shleeping, hold my ballsh in your left hand and my c0ck in your right hand." Cilla looks a bit perplexed, but says, "Okay". He sleeps for half an hour, awakens, and they have even better sex. Then Sean says, "Cilla, that wash wonderful. But if you let me shleep for an hour, we can have the besht shex yet. But again, hold my ballsh in your left hand, and my c0ck in your right hand." Cilla is now used to the routine and complies. The results are mind blowing. Once it’s all over, and the cigarettes are lit, Cilla asks "Sean, tell me, does my holding your balls in my left hand and your c0ck in my right stimulate you while you’re sleeping?" Sean replies, "No, but the lasht time I slept with a shcouser, she shtole my wallet."

Yes, and bring it on at the next general election which will hopefully be sooner rather than later. We desperately need a clearout at Westminster to get things done, not least of which is Brexit! -{
"The tough man of the world. The Secret Agent. The man who was only a silhouette." - Ian Fleming, Moonraker (1955).
Not many people know this, but President George W. Bush, VP Dick Cheney and Secretary of War Danald Rumsfeld all secretly visited the front lines during the invasion in Iraq. Everything went terribly wrong and all three were captured by Iraqi forces.
A firing squad is convened and Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush are all marched to a wall to be shot. As the firing squad are loading their guns Rumsfeld thinks, "I've got to cause a diversion so I can get away." He yells "Oh, no. A TORNADO" and points behind the firing squad. As the Iraqis turn around to see if there is a tornado approaching, Rumsfeld jumps over the wall behind him and runs away. The firing squad turns their attention back to the two men who are left. Cheney quickly observes how well Rumsfeld's ruse has worked and yells "EARTHQUAKE". As the firing squad frantically looks for a place to take cover Cheney jumps over the wall and he too escapes. The firing squad resumes their stance and proceeds to take aim at George W. Bush. Dubya, believing that he, too, can create a diversion, frantically searches his mind for another natural disaster to use. Smiling to himself, he yells "FIRE".
Is this a joke or a political allegory? I don't know, but I've read a lot about Soviet history and this gives a fairly good insight into the mindset of the Soviet leaders:
In spite of the fact that Lenin died before Gorbatchev was born, all the major Soviet leaders were sitting on a train. Suddenly it stopped in the middle of nowhere, and the conductor informed them that there was no more railway track in front of the locomotive in spite of the railway being reported as finished five years ago. The conductor asked the great leaders what to do about the problem. since he was the father of the revolution Lenin spoke first:
- We should free the local farmers and order them to finish the railway
Stalin was next: - We should order the farmers to finish the railway in a day, then shoot them all for sabotage.
Khrushchev: - We should order the farmers to take the railway tracks behind the train and use it to finish the railway in front of us.
Brezhnev: - We should close the curtains, then order the farmers to rock the our train carriage and make train noises.
Gorbatchev: - We should pay the farmers to finish the railway with the Money we no longer have.
Some German jokes from WWII you could get sendt to consentration camps for telling:
In the final days of Berlin they said that Goebbels was going to step down as regional commander of Berlin and be replaced by Rommel, who already knew about deserts.
Later in the war, a German was called up. He asks the doctor, "Doctor, you're a professional. Which arm of service should I opt for?"
"Which arm did you serve in in the last war?"
"Oh, I wasn't called up then. I was too old."
Count Bobby (an Austrian fool) is finally called up. He is certified physically fit for service and asked where he wants to serve. "In the Führer's headquarters," he says.
"Good God, are you insane!?" the doctor says.
The count asked: "Is that required now?"
Hitler walks into a Berlin wine store and demands a bottle of champagne. The wine merchant replies: ”Excuse me, due to rationing and supply shortages none is available.” Hitler: “But I know you everyone sells it under the counter.” Wine merchant: “That’s a lie!” Hitler (angry): “DON’T YOU RECOGNIZE ME?” I AM THE LIBERATOR OF EUROPE!” Wine merchant (enthusiastic, to his wife): “Elfi, bring two bottles of champagne! Mr. Churchill is here!”
Hitler walks the streets of Berlin, in disguise, to check the real attitude of the ordinary people. He approaches a bystander and asks for his opinion about his politics. However, the bystander rejects to answer: “Well, it could be dangerous to express one’s true opinion these days.” Hitler:”Trust me, I won’t say a word.” “O.k., but don’t let my neighbors know: I think the Führer is doing a fine job.”
3 prisoners are talking with one of the guards of the POW camp in 1944. The first one, the American tells the others "If I go up the Empire State Building I can see all of New York! New York is really the greatest city in the world". The British says "If I go up Big Ben, I can see all London, isn't that fabulous?", the French then says "I f I go up the Eiffel Tower, I can see all Paris! You don't have that in Berlin Fritz!". And Fritz says "In Berlin it's even better : If I stand on one brick I can see all the city!!!"
In January 1945 Hitlers adjutant rushes into the Führers room and tells that he finally has some good news to tell: "Our armies are moving both to the East and to the West. Hitler delighted that his predictions are finally becoming true utters "Can this be true?". The adjutant: "Definitely Mein Führer, our armies in the West are advancing to the East and our armies in the East are advancing to the West".
Two shortest books of the World: "Eating well in Great Britain" and "Modern Italy military success stories."
Original contemporary joke: Führer and his chauffeur on their route through the Berchtesgadener Land. Suddenly a pig runs in front of the car; is hit and dies. The chauffeur says to Hitler: " I have to go into the house and have to inform the owner" ; He doesn't come back for an hour and then suddenly appears heavily drunken with a basket full of presents in his hands. The Führer asks him; what happened. The chauffeur replies: "I really don't know. I just entered the room and said: "Heil Hitler, the swine is dead!"

Who was best electrican in Third Reich?
Hitler. In few years he isolated all of Germany.
A joke from 1945:
- How do you get from the East Front to the West Front?
- By tram!
At a dinner with Churchill, German Foreign minister Ribbentrop said : "In the future war with Britain, Germany will have the Italians on our side". Churchill: “That’s only fair – we had them last time.”
Not so much a joke as a witticism. On his show last Thursday Jimmy Fallon said of the book by Trump's niece, Too Much and Never Enough, that it "sounds like a Bond film from the '80s we forgot about."
Earlier I posted some jokes from nazi Germany. This is the Gulag edition
A Frenchman, and Englishman, and a Soviet are admiring a painting of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.
The Frenchman says, “They must be French, they’re naked and they’re eating fruit.”
The Englishman says, “Clearly, they’re English; observe how politely the women is offering fruit to the man.”
The Soviet replies, “No, they are Russian communists, of course. They have no house, nothing to wear, little to eat, and they think they are in Paradise.
4 comrades go to a Soviet hotel for a night during a business trip...
As they walk into their room, 3 of them, whip out some vodka, food and cigarettes and begin to make jokes about the government and be very loud indeed. The 4th one is trying to get some meaningful sleep and knowing that it would be fruitless to ask them to stop, hatches an ingenious plan.
He goes downstairs to reception and asks for a cup of coffee to be delivered to the room.
"Make sure you deliver it exactly after 10 minutes starting from now"
Returning back to the room he joins his comrades midway a Stalin joke. He sits up shocked and exclaims:
"Comrades! You must not say these things! Don't you know? They are listening to our conversations right now!"
The comrades jeer and laugh at him and say that that is impossible.
"Really? Then how do you explain this?"
He gets up and speaks into the lampshade by the beds.
"I would like a black coffee to be delivered to my room, please."
And surely enough, in a short amount of time, a maid walks in with a cup of coffee and some sugar.
The other 3 comrades turn deathly pale and quickly turn in for the night. The last comrade drinks his coffee and peacefully goes to sleep.
Come morning the 4th comrade awakens only to find that his friends and all their belongings are missing.
Throughly confused and anxious, the man walks down the stairs to reception to enquire whether his friends had checked out earlier in the morning.
"I am afraid not sir. You see, the KGB raided your room during the night and placed your friends under arrest for ridiculing the Soviet regime."
"B-but how come they didn't take me?!"
"Oh, the Captain very much enjoyed your joke"
What is the difference between Russian roulette and Soviet roulette?
In Soviet roulette everyone dies equally
Soviet Premier Brezhnev, as is his habit, looks out the window of his Kremlin office at the morning sun.
"Good morning, Comrade sun" he says. The sun answers, "Good morning, Comrade Premier."
About noon Brezhnev looks up through the skylight and says, "Good day, Comrade sun." The sun dutifully answers "Good day, Comrade Premier."
In the afternoon Brezhnev peers out his window at the setting sun and says, "Good afternoon, Comrade sun." "**** you, Brezhnev" says the sun. "I'm in the West now."
Unlike Hitler and Mao, Stalin sometimes told jokes about himself. He liked this one:
One day Stalin mentioned to Beria (secret police chief, staling called him "My Himmler") his pipe is missing. The next day Stalin tells Beria he found his pite under the sofa. Beria replied: "But Stalin, how can this be? seventeen people have already confessed to be a part of a conspiracy to steal your pipe and they were shot in the basement of the Lublyanka .."

Yes, and bring it on at the next general election which will hopefully be sooner rather than later. We desperately need a clearout at Westminster to get things done, not least of which is Brexit! -{
A firing squad is convened and Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush are all marched to a wall to be shot. As the firing squad are loading their guns Rumsfeld thinks, "I've got to cause a diversion so I can get away." He yells "Oh, no. A TORNADO" and points behind the firing squad. As the Iraqis turn around to see if there is a tornado approaching, Rumsfeld jumps over the wall behind him and runs away. The firing squad turns their attention back to the two men who are left. Cheney quickly observes how well Rumsfeld's ruse has worked and yells "EARTHQUAKE". As the firing squad frantically looks for a place to take cover Cheney jumps over the wall and he too escapes. The firing squad resumes their stance and proceeds to take aim at George W. Bush. Dubya, believing that he, too, can create a diversion, frantically searches his mind for another natural disaster to use. Smiling to himself, he yells "FIRE".

I met a depressed Scandinavian the other day.
He wished he'd never been Björn.

Suddenly it stopped in the middle of nowhere, and the conductor informed them that there was no more railway track in front of the locomotive in spite of the railway being reported as finished five years ago. The conductor asked the great leaders what to do about the problem. since he was the father of the revolution Lenin spoke first:
- We should free the local farmers and order them to finish the railway
Stalin was next: - We should order the farmers to finish the railway in a day, then shoot them all for sabotage.
Khrushchev: - We should order the farmers to take the railway tracks behind the train and use it to finish the railway in front of us.
Brezhnev: - We should close the curtains, then order the farmers to rock the our train carriage and make train noises.
Gorbatchev: - We should pay the farmers to finish the railway with the Money we no longer have.
In the final days of Berlin they said that Goebbels was going to step down as regional commander of Berlin and be replaced by Rommel, who already knew about deserts.

"Which arm did you serve in in the last war?"
"Oh, I wasn't called up then. I was too old."
Count Bobby (an Austrian fool) is finally called up. He is certified physically fit for service and asked where he wants to serve. "In the Führer's headquarters," he says.
"Good God, are you insane!?" the doctor says.
The count asked: "Is that required now?"

The Führer asks him; what happened. The chauffeur replies: "I really don't know. I just entered the room and said: "Heil Hitler, the swine is dead!"
This made me laugh so much!

A Frenchman, and Englishman, and a Soviet are admiring a painting of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.
The Frenchman says, “They must be French, they’re naked and they’re eating fruit.”
The Englishman says, “Clearly, they’re English; observe how politely the women is offering fruit to the man.”
The Soviet replies, “No, they are Russian communists, of course. They have no house, nothing to wear, little to eat, and they think they are in Paradise.
4 comrades go to a Soviet hotel for a night during a business trip...
As they walk into their room, 3 of them, whip out some vodka, food and cigarettes and begin to make jokes about the government and be very loud indeed. The 4th one is trying to get some meaningful sleep and knowing that it would be fruitless to ask them to stop, hatches an ingenious plan.
He goes downstairs to reception and asks for a cup of coffee to be delivered to the room.
"Make sure you deliver it exactly after 10 minutes starting from now"
Returning back to the room he joins his comrades midway a Stalin joke. He sits up shocked and exclaims:
"Comrades! You must not say these things! Don't you know? They are listening to our conversations right now!"
The comrades jeer and laugh at him and say that that is impossible.
"Really? Then how do you explain this?"
He gets up and speaks into the lampshade by the beds.
"I would like a black coffee to be delivered to my room, please."
And surely enough, in a short amount of time, a maid walks in with a cup of coffee and some sugar.
The other 3 comrades turn deathly pale and quickly turn in for the night. The last comrade drinks his coffee and peacefully goes to sleep.
Come morning the 4th comrade awakens only to find that his friends and all their belongings are missing.
Throughly confused and anxious, the man walks down the stairs to reception to enquire whether his friends had checked out earlier in the morning.
"I am afraid not sir. You see, the KGB raided your room during the night and placed your friends under arrest for ridiculing the Soviet regime."
"B-but how come they didn't take me?!"
"Oh, the Captain very much enjoyed your joke"

Soviet Premier Brezhnev, as is his habit, looks out the window of his Kremlin office at the morning sun.
"Good morning, Comrade sun" he says. The sun answers, "Good morning, Comrade Premier."
About noon Brezhnev looks up through the skylight and says, "Good day, Comrade sun." The sun dutifully answers "Good day, Comrade Premier."
In the afternoon Brezhnev peers out his window at the setting sun and says, "Good afternoon, Comrade sun." "**** you, Brezhnev" says the sun. "I'm in the West now."
Unlike Hitler and Mao, Stalin sometimes told jokes about himself. He liked this one:
One day Stalin mentioned to Beria (secret police chief, staling called him "My Himmler") his pipe is missing. The next day Stalin tells Beria he found his pite under the sofa. Beria replied: "But Stalin, how can this be? seventeen people have already confessed to be a part of a conspiracy to steal your pipe and they were shot in the basement of the Lublyanka .."
