Top 10 Edinburgh Fringe festival jokes

August 26, 2009

Wow your colleagues at work with these witty jokes, stolen from comedians at this year's Edinburgh Fringe.
  1. Dan Antopolski - "Hedgehogs - why can't they just share the hedge?"
  2. Paddy Lennox - "I was watching the London Marathon and saw one runner dressed as a chicken and another runner dressed as an egg. I thought: 'This could be interesting'."
  3. Sarah Millican - "I had my boobs measured and bought a new bra. Now I call them Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes because they're up where they belong."
  4. Zoe Lyons - "I went on a girls' night out recently. The invitation said 'dress to kill'. I went as Rose West."
  5. Jack Whitehall - "I'm sure wherever my dad is; he's looking down on us. He's not dead, just very condescending."
  6. Adam Hills - "Going to Starbucks for coffee is like going to prison for sex. You know you're going to get it, but it's going to be rough."
  7. Marcus Brigstocke - "To the people who've got iPhones: you just bought one, you didn't invent it!"
  8. Rhod Gilbert - "A spa hotel? It's like a normal hotel, only in reception there's a picture of a pebble."
  9. Dan Antopolski - "I've been reading the news about there being a civil war in Madagascar. Well, I've seen it six times and there isn't."
  10. Simon Brodkin (as Lee Nelson) - "I started so many fights at my school - I had that attention-deficit disorder. So I didn't finish a lot of them."

About Guru

Guru is Personnel Today's notorious HR commentator and dispenser of workplace wit and wisdom. He was once an HR Director but is now the antithesis of good people management. He is right-leaning, most certainly politically incorrect and ever so slightly misogynistic. He is also lazy, married (to Mrs Guru) and refers to himself – as all self-important people do - in the third person.
