New writer....

New at this, couple of jokes, see what I think....all feedback great fully received

Saw an advert in the paper the other day....'free toy for every reader'... kid next door had to pay for his, but in all fairness its not his fault he's dyslexic.

Overheard a bloke on a bus the other day telling people he was gonna blow his load and then...bang!  before u know it the front row looked like the aftermath of a bukkake party.

You need more context mate. Like the bloke was moaning about doing it and people were looking at him, and he did it again ec etc etc before you deliver punchline.
Re the dyslexia joke, its either over my head, I read it incorrectly (which would be ironic) or it really doesn't make sense coz dyslexics get their letters mixed up, NOT sentences. Good idea in principle though.

I didn't get the dyslexia one either.

For info on dyslexia, you should try dyslexia.co.ku

Yeah, it's lunchtime and I'm bored :(

I don't get either of them.
I did like 'see what I think' though.

Is the twist in the first one meant to be on 'reader' rather than 'free'? Maybe make the character illiterate if so, as dyslexia points audience in the wrong direction.

To me, the second one is just grim without context or character or twist, it's just relying on people laughing while wincing but this only works when you've subverted an idea

Yes, that was quite an original self-centred spin wasnt it...haha

The first one doesn't work as dyslexic people can actually read, the second one I just don't get. Sorry.
