Joke thread

Popular Hungarian joke just now..

A man comes to the Prime Minister’s office, knocks, walks up to security and says:
— Good afternoon! I’d like to speak with Viktor Orbán.
— He doesn’t work here anymore.
— I see…,” the man says as he leaves, but a minute later he comes back.
— Good afternoon! I’d like to speak with Viktor Orbán.
— Sir, I already told you! He doesn’t work here anymore!
— I understand…, the man says. “It’s just so nice to hear it.”
 
Build a man a fire, and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.

I worry about ridiculous things, you know, how does a guy who drives a snowplough get to work in the morning… that can keep me awake for days.

Crime in multi-storey car parks. That is wrong on so many different levels.

Give a man a fish, and you’ll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you’ll get rid of him on the weekends.

(Not necessarily my view, but I still thought it was funny)!
Sea fishing, or even river bank/lake fishing to a lesser extent.
Whilst accompanied by beer & snacks. Is literally as close to God as any Man (or Woman) can get on this earth? 🤗
