Why Bad Jokes Are Actually Pretty Great

As many people know, I think that "bad" jokes are hilarious. To me, the worse that the joke is, the funnier that I find it. My favorites are bad puns that you simply cannot figure out and that make you embarrassed as soon as you find out the answer because they were just so obvious and bad.

What do termites eat for breakfast?

Oakmeal!

You hated it, didn't you? However, at the same time, you secretly loved it, right?

Three guys are on a boat with four cigarettes, but nothing to light them with. What do they do?

They throw one overboard because then the whole boat becomes one cigarette lighter!

Even better than bad puns are the jokes that have a punchline that's so unsurprising that it's surprising. You want to kill something after you've heard the joke, but you can't help laughing at the stupidity. Truthfully, I live for the groans that a horrible joke creates and this particular type is prime for groaning.

What did the farmer say when he lost his tractor?

"I can't find my tractor!"

You're laughing, aren't you? You hate that you're laughing, but you're laughing.

Stupid jokes are undeniably stupid. However, at the same time, they are still jokes because they entertain people. Some of my friends and I routinely trade awful jokes until we can't think of any more, just because we find them so funny. So, go ahead, tell a bad joke! You might get some horrible feedback, but you'll know that, deep down, everyone really appreciated your humor.

What's Forrest Gump's password?
1Forrest1

What's brown and sticky?
A stick.

What did one lawyer say to the other lawyer?
"We are both lawyers."

Two fish are in a tank. One turns to the other and says, "How did you drive this thing?"

A magic tractor drives down the road and turns into a field.

What do you call a camel with no humps?
Humphrey

What's a bagel that can fly?
A plain bagel

Enjoy!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
