Why are you following me around?

Are you stalking me?

Until I can think my way out.

Whatever it was about."

??? I'll blame my inability to understand that joke on the fact that english is my second language. I had a look online to find some clues and found some sites:
Cartoon
and
Science dictionary


Still don't get it, though.

Sorry, Hawks, it's because I told it wrong. It's "do female student lute players get pre-minstrel syndrome?"

That second link of your reminded me of another oldie-but-goodie: Q: How do we know that diarrhea is hereditary? A: Because it runs in your jeans.

The female part was quite crucial for the point it that joke... I too went 'huh?' at you first attempt.

Two snowmen are standing in a field. One looks to the other and asks, "do you smell carrots?"

I would rather face a cold reality than delude myself with comforting fantasies.

You are free to believe what you want to believe and I am free to ridicule you for it.

I, the great repository of bad jokes, shall now give you a smattering of them

1) Three guys walk into a bar, you'd think the third guy would have seen the first two hit.

2) During the second world war, a US recruit goes through basic training and gets to the field without being issued a rifle due to supply shortages. He is sent to the German front and informs his Sergant of the foul up.

The Sergent grabs a broom, shoves it at him and says that the Germans in this part of the line are very stupid. When they get in range, rise up and yell "Bangity Bangity Bang!". The Private decides to go along with the percieved gag and asks about a bayonett.

The sargent breaks a straw off of the bottom of the broom ties it to the handle and tells the private that when they get close enough to brandish his broom and yell "Stabity Stabity Stab!"

The private goes to the front lines thinking that the sergant has sent him up there to die, but orders is orders. The Germans attack and the private raises up and yells "Bangity Bangity Bang!" To his surprise, Germans flop over dead. When they get in range he brandishes his broom and yells "Stabity Stabity Stab!" Again, more dead Germans.

In the distance moving towards him very slowly is one fat German. The private yells "Bangity Bangity Bang!" Nothing. He runs up to the German and yells "Stabity Stabity Stab!". The fat German catches the private's feet under his own and walks over him breaking the private's bones in the process. As the German walks away, the private hears the German mutter "Tankity Tankity Tank"

3) Two carrots are walking down the street when one is struck by a passing motorcar. The injured carrot is rushed to the hospital and his friend paces the floor while he is in surgery. 15 hours later an exhausted doctor comes out. The uninjured carror asks the doctor how his friend is. The doctor says, "You're friend will live but he'll be a vegatable for the rest of his life."

4) What do you call a dog with no legs? It doesn't matter, he's not coming.

No wonder cosmic strings are so hard to find if I was tied to the bad jokes you guys are telling I'd hide too.

A priest, a pedophile, and a rapist walk into a bar. And that's just the first guy...

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Hey, Stargirl, did you hear that scientists have found the gene for shyness? It was hiding behind another gene.

A guy walks into a bar with a set of jumper cables. The bartender takes one look at him and says: "Don't you start anything!"

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

A grasshopper walks into a bar. The bartender says, "hey, we've got a drink named after you!" The grasshopper asks, "you've got a drink named Earl?"

The "Bangity Bangity Bang" joke seems out of place. It really made me laugh (which, while sitting in a library is not that good).
