I must be beginning to think like you. I got all of them the first time. Is that good, or should I be worried? Number 12 I can't rightly do. Have the flu for six days and not getting much better.

Generic Vicks vaporub under the nose helps. It helps unclog. You can also stand in the shower with the water as hot as you can stand it. or, put a pot of water on the stove, and put a few drops of what ever smell you like , hand put a towel over your head to hold in the steam. and breathe as deep as you can. Love you, get better. I am sending best wishes your way. Karen

The towel over the head and hot pot was my father's remedy for me. He put Vicks in the water and gave me a shot glass full of lemon juice and whiskey.

MY mom made Kickapoo joy juice. Whisky, lemon and honey. We drank a little and took a nap.It helped with congestion. and relaxed us enough to sleep.

Hello Karen,
I don't know what constitutes a bad joke, but I thought these were funny. Maybe I set the bar too low, but they were clean and humorous, so they count in my book. Well done gal.
Have a blessed day.

They are silly little things. Some folks would call them "Dad" jokes. My Dad loved jokes, but he could not tell one if his life depended on it. I am pausing in this series. I am burning out. Thanks for the read. Karen
Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
This is a cute little list of jokes. I didn't know you were a comedian. It is well organized and flows nicely from the beginning to the end. It tells a story all the way through.
Well done

Thanks for the read. I have always seen the funny. But until I got here, I mainly wrote mysteries. They had funny bits in them. But I was a crime writer mostly. Now I write about darn near anything. Ain't life grand? Karen

You're welcome
Comment from F. William Lester
Six, eight, nine, and ten made me laugh the loudest. I've never heard of any of them. I must lead a sheltered life. "Diddly Squats"; "The flag has a plus"; Made my day. I hope you're feeling better today, Karen. Your piece put a smile on my face. Thanks, Frank.

Thanks for the read. I wrote some, I found others and edited and I took some serious ones and bent them on their ear. Like Shakespeare said,"Everything has been written, and all words have been said. I just did another one. Karen

Thank you for sharing these twelve riddles. I had fun reading. I enjoyed reading. You're doing us a service by posting them. We very often need to smile and not take things so seriously.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I got them all and they're all completely new and very amusing (if only I could ever remember them). Clearly presented and complemented with an image that, alone, makes you smile! Well done, Karen. Debbie

That is one of the best smile pictures I have ever seen. He uses his whole face. I am attempting to have 52 chapters, one for every week in the year. I hope at that point, publishers will be climbing over themselves to offer me gobs of cash and make me obscenely wealthy. It's a happy dream! Thanks for the read. Karen
Comment from Neonewman
I got them right away, and I'm still laughing. But hands down, my favorite is number 3. Contractions. I laughed my ass off. No, really, it's still in my recliner, lol. I also enjoyed 5,7 and 8.
Thank you for the early morning laughter, Karen.
God bless,
Steve

Thank you for the read. No one noticed that there was no #9. Here it is now for your viewing pleasure:
Today was a terrible day for me. My ex was hit by a bus.
And I lost my job.
As a bus driver.

OMG! This is my favorite of all, and I can't believe I didn't catch the missing number nine. Too funny.

No one missed it.!!!!!

Comment from jim vecchio
Another collection of funny and witty jokes. I always have many to tell, until I sit down to type, and I forget them all. Thank you for another round of humor. You do well at this kind of post.

You're just full of the chuckles and crazy thoughts today, my friend. You certainly don't have to worry about any cobwebs getting in the way...your brain is too busy.
Smiles, Carol

Thanks for the read, By brain never quits. If you need brain games for free, go to the Merriam Webster/ Brittainia dictionary site. I love tightrope and Quordles. Karen
Comment from Pam (respa)
These are good, Karen. The kind that make you smile. I like them all, but a few stand out, starting with "diddly squats." #2 is a good one, plus #5, #7, #10. I enjoy puns and plays on words. You did a good job. A nice way to begin my morning.

#2 Is my favorite. I came across it a long time ago. I had to stare at it awhile until it sunk in, and then it was hilarious. I write some, I edit some, and I take some serious quotes and turn them on their ear. Thanks for the read. Karen

You are very welcome, Karen, and thanks for sharing your favorite and your writing process for these quips. A sense of humor is very important in my opinion.

You are right. A sense of humor can get you through a lot. Karfen

Yes, it can.
