And another

[Simon]

I was walking through the cemetery this morning and saw a bloke hiding
behind a gravestone. I said, "Morning."

He replied, "No, just having a shit."

But why did he say "No" to your greeting of "Morning" when, as you
have stated, it was, in fact, morning?

the jacket, cheap black shoes with a silver buckle thingy on them and
can't tie a tie properly - that is why you are probably still single.

Maybe it's Ogilvie as he is a pedant for sure!

As Pete never reads what he posts and desires only to provoke argument
it is safest to assume that anything he espouses is at least unsafe and
probably malicious.

Sorry but that joke clearly needs to be re-written.

No it doesn't, you just don't get it all and have completely missed the
punchline.

Of course I haven't missed the punchline. It's initially funny but
then you realise that something is wrong.

I did miss it.

Don't you just hate having jokes explained to you? From now on I'll
just laugh and shut up.

Yeah right.

I've been having a little think about that joke and come to the
conclusion that I was right all along. It does need to be re-written.

I would thus start the joke off:

I was walking through the cemetery this morning and saw a bloke
*crouching at a gravestone*.

Now you don't think there is anything amiss, and would expect the
bloke to be there "mourning". When you say you saw a bloke *hiding
behind a gravestone* you expect him to be up to something out of the
ordinary (i.e. not mourning) and the punchline is less effective.

Small detail, maybe, but we know it's the attention to detail that
makes the difference.

Nah, that doesn't work, it would need to be tuttying down.
If he was crouching it he would be leaning forward and the shit would
run down his legs

Tuttying down? That's not even English. Tutty, according to my
dictionary, is impure zinc oxide or carbonate. Tuttying down is
definitely out because nobody I know would get it.

No it wouldn't, and even if it did it that wouldn't affect the joke -
and it would be no less than he deserved for using a graveside as a
loo anyway.

I think I'm getting a bit bogged down on this joke, so no more,
please.

Well, I was walking through graveyard recently and saw 4 men carrying a
coffin. Then 15 mins later I saw the same men carrying the same coffin but
in another part of the graveyard. I thought to myself.......They've lost
the fuckin plot!

Lol. Very succinct.
Another equally as succinct but not as funny:-

A crowded lift smells different to a midget.
