Bad Christmas Cracker Jokes

Readers from the US may not know what a Christmas cracker (or bonbon) is, so have a quick read here if you are confused. In any event, here is a list, in no particular order, of some of the terrible jokes that came out of my family’s Christmas lunch crackers this year:

  • Q: Why are giraffes so slow to apologize?
    A: It takes them a long time to swallow their pride.
  • Q: What two fish are needed to make a shoe?
    A: A sole and an eel
  • Q: Why did the boy blush when he opened the fridge?
    A: He saw the salad dressing.
  • Q: How can you tell which spiders are the trendiest?
    A: They have their own websites.
  • Q: What button won’t you find in a tailor’s shop?
    A: A belly button.
  • Q: What do you get when you cross a lighthouse and a chicken coop?
    A: Beacon and eggs.

Bah-dum cha!
