The 'New York Post' Got Jokes

Of the greatest 50 quips in the world today, at least 40 are completely unfunny and hackneyed — we’re almost certain some of chosen “gags” aren’t even jokes — and seven mock either African Americans or women (four for the ladies and three for the blacks). All in all, we think the whole exercise was just the Post endorsing Obama in the only way it knows how.

“Jokes” are after the jump.

Women:

• I got a teenage daughter and a menopausal wife. One’s getting breasts, one’s getting whiskers. My life is over.

• My girlfriend said, “I hate it when you finish my sentences.” So I said, “Period.”

• Almost all serial killers are men. That’s ’cause women like to kill one man slowly over many, many years.

• A couple is married for 47 years and the woman dies. At the funeral, the pallbearers swing the coffin, which hits a wall. From inside the coffin, the woman yells, “Oh, my God!” She lived another four years. She dies again. The pallbearers are swinging the coffin. The husband yells, “Watch out for the wall!”

Blacks:

• Barack Obama bowled a 37. Is he black enough for you now?

• I think I might vote for Barack Obama. Because I live in New York City and have been giving black guys change for the past 10 years. I want to see what it feels like for a black guy to give me change.

• Tupac Shakur’s mother was a Black Panther. His father was a regular panther.
