Incorporating the Royal Order of the Fark

How many times have you bought a joke book and then felt dudded when you found out that half the jokes weren’t funny?

I can tell you one thing, it's not going to happen when you purchase the 'Fark, That's a Good Joke' book. You'll piss yourself laughing. You'll be rolling on the floor. It will be hard to wipe the smirk off your face.

Most compilers of joke books go for quantity, not quality. They don’t test drive the jokes before they publish them. I’ve heard most of the jokes in this book, not read them in other joke books or on the internet - though I have to say the internet is a great repository. I reckon just about every other day I get another joke sent to me. You can put me on your list.

This is not your ordinary, every day, common or garden joke book. I’ve gone for quality. I’ve test driven most of them. You'll wet yourself when you read some of these jokes; you'll split your pants laughing.

The main criteria for a good joke is that it’s funny. It becomes a better joke if it’s subtle or if it’s wrapped up in a story. It doesn’t have to be long; there are lot of good one-liners. For instance do you know the difference between fat and cholesterol? Or the one about the clown who farted?

It’s a funny thing about jokes that you always remember the person who told it to you. You can even remember the time and place. A joke is a powerful thing.

The other funny thing is that you only have to hear a word or a phrase and it will trigger a joke. For instance, as soon as I hear the words ‘think’, ‘blink’, or ’turn on the light’ I think of the joke that includes those words. Same with ‘Richard, Nixon’, ‘John Thomas’ or ‘St Peter’.

Anyone who’s good at telling jokes will pick up on these triggers and out will come an appropriate joke at the appropriate time.

I have to tell you though, there’s a couple of amber lights hanging over any joke book.

The first is that if too many people buy it you’ll have to put up with them telling you jokes you already know. Be gracious. If you enjoy the book, keep it dark!
