*This is adventure game related, and I considered the forums I could post it in and chose chit chat, but if a mod thinks this is the wrong forum you can move it to the gen gen or something.
As you may be aware, I'm doing a remake of LSL3, and I'm changing the jokes for the Comedy Hut, since they're out dated and racist.
Note: instead of choosing your 3 favourite ethnic groups, I've changed it to your 3 favourite personalities (although this might change) - I will consider other suggestions.
What I want is for people to post shortish jokes that would suit the style of the Comedy Hut in 2003. The best jokes will make it into the game and you will be credited for it.
Be as crude as you like.

Dark Humour all the way!!
I for one don't have a copy of LSL3 to hand. Maybe you could post some of the existing jokes to establish the style?

Ok, here's a sample of some of the jokes out of the game, you can see why some of them need updating, but some are possible to keep in.
But I might need another Idea for the topic of the 3 things you are prompted to enter.
eg. in the game you are prompted to enter 3 ethnic groups (I don't want that)
In these example I entered American, English, Australian:
'Once when I was a teenager I stopped at the drugstore to purchase some of those 'necessary supplies.' I told the pharmacist, 'Better give me a dozen, I've got a hot date with the school tramp!''
'When I got to her house, her mother insisted I join them for dinner. I offered to say grace, and prayed and prayed and prayed. When I finished, my date leaned over to me and said, 'Why, Paul! I had no idea you were so religious!''
'I replied, 'And I had no idea your father was a pharmacist!''
'Do you know how to break an English man's finger?'
'Punch him in the nose!'
'What is two hours of Begging?'
'American foreplay!'
'Do you know why the Australian Guys have been stealing all those police cars lately?'
'They saw the '911' and thought they were Porsches!'
'Why did the chicken cross the basketball court?'
'He heard the referee was blowing fouls.'
'Once I had a great thing going with this Eskimo girl...'
'...unfortunately, she broke it off!'
'Do you know the most dangerous job in an American neighborhood?'
'Riding shotgun on the garbage truck!'
'Do you know why American stadiums have artificial grass?'
'To keep the cheerleaders from grazing during half time!'
'Did you hear about the English guy who won a gold medal in the last Olympics?'
'He had it bronzed!'
'How do you sink an Australian battleship?'
'Put it in water!'
'Why did the Australian pervert cross the road?'
'Because he was stuck to the back of the chicken!'
'Do you know the best thing about sleeping alone?'
'You can have sex anytime you want it!'
'Do you know how to recognise an English virgin?'
'She's the one that can run fater than her brothers!'
And what is wrong with those jokes?
They are not racist - they don't (and can't, due to how the game works) play on any perceived stereotypes.
Ask for nationalities, or have the player choose them from a list...

I just want some fresher jokes.
I actually left out some of the more racist type jokes, and they may not be racist cause you get to choose your own groups, but they are still designed for that purpose, I just want to move away from that area, especially in this day and age.
maybe choose your favourite Political Party (ideas for this are probably more important, as it sets up some of the jokes)
but there are also jokes that don't use the choices aswell.
come on, I know everyone here has a dirty mind,
I saw that filthy slut sit on your face.

Why do dogs lick their testicles?
Spoiler
Because they can!
A horse walks into a bar and the barman says "Why the long face?"
How many mice does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Spoiler
Two, but the trouble is getting them in there!
As my chemistry teacher used to say: if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate...
OK, OK, they're not fresh, but they're classic
Thanks Rode,
There's sure to be some useful jokes in there
and SSH, I like the mice one
