Whether told in the rugby clubs of Wales or the gentlemen's clubs
of London, their sharpness and simplicity unites us all. Short,
sweet and wickedly clever, they hold a special place in the annals
of comedy, and as the rise of Twitter heralds a resurrection of the
art form, there seems no better time to celebrate the immortal
one-liner. In this book, Times diary columnist Grant Tucker does
just that, bringing together 5,000 of the funniest one-liners ever
told in one definitive volume. Laugh-out-loud funny, 5,000 Great
One-Liners has all the quips, zingers, puns and wisecracks you'll
ever need - and a whole lot more. My mate told me that I just don't
understand irony. Which was ironic because we were at a bus stop at
the time. --- A dyslexic man walks into a bra. --- An onion just
told me a joke. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. --- A priest,
a rabbi and a blind man walk into a bar and the bartender says,
'What is this, some kind of joke?' --- I got chatting to a
lumberjack in a pub. He seemed like a decent feller. --- A neutron
walks into a bar and says to the barman, 'How much for a pint?' To
which the barman replies, 'For you, no charge.' --- I'll never
forget what my granddad said to me just before he kicked the
bucket. He said, 'Grandson, how far do you think I can kick this
bucket?'
