Friday Funny June 13, 2024 Cicada Jokes

Happy Friday!  I read where a good portion of the Midwest is dealing with 17-year cicadas.  We had them in Ohio a few years ago so we feel, or should I say hear, your pain!  Here are some cicada jokes to kick off your weekend.

Enjoy!

Is it true that cicadas are boring conversationalists because they don’t stop buzzing about what was cool 17 years ago?

I saw a cicada last night. The poor guy was just a hollow shell of his former self.

I heard that a cicada chef is opening a new restaurant, it’s called “Emergence-y Dining.”

Did you know that cicadas have very odd beliefs? It is true, they are all in sects.

Is it true that a cicada’s favorite game to play is ‘Hide and exoseek’?

I heard that cicadas get off the subway at the infest-station.

If life is just a game, then cicadas are not bugs, they are features.

Did you hear about the cicada who was lonely because he had no buggy to hang out with?

Is it true that the cicada called off work because she had a bug?

People who confuse etymology and entomology bug me in a way I can’t put into words.

Friday funny April 12, 2024 Rain, Rain Go Away!

Happy Friday!  It was pretty neat in my little neck of the woods to see a total solar eclipse this week.  While the sky was pretty clear for the eclipse, it has pretty much been raining since then.  Instead of lamenting the rain, let’s kick off the weekend laughing about it.

Enjoy!

Would you call a cow riding a motorcycle in the rain – Cow-is-soggy?

I heard that cows lie down together in the rain to keep each udder dry.

I heard that ghosts do not like to walk outside when it rains because it dampens their spirits.

I heard that meteorologists get paid with rain checks.

Would you call a dinosaur that got stuck in the rain a driplodocus?

If it is raining outside does an artist draw the curtains closed?

Did you hear about the weatherman who was blushing because he saw climate change?

Did you know that if there is rain in the forecast that it is common for sailors to eat shellfish?  It’s the clam before the storm.

Since it started raining, all I can do is look sadly through the window.  I am hoping that soon my wife will let me in.

I once entered a weather pun competition. I beat the raining champion.

If you come in fourth at the National Weatherman Awards do you get a precipitation trophy?

If all this rain has you thinking of building an ark, I Noah guy.
