Regarding being divorced:

It was half her fault for her nagging, being such a slob around the house and sleeping with other men...and half my fault for marrying the insane bitch in the first place.

I went speed dating and loads of women wrote my name down, sadly it was a petition and I'm not allowed back.

I want to try internet dating, but I don't find computers attactive.

I signed up to do a DIY course, turned up and there was an empty classroom.

I'm a Gulf War vet. Didn't see much action. There's little room in the theatre of war for pets.

I once failed to overdose. By the 4th aspirin, there was so much froth I couldn't even find the plastic tub.

My mate's down in the dumps since he lost his job. I can sympathise with him though, I was unemployed once, I still am by the way.

Where I live is rough. I came home one night, and some drunk's having a slash against my front door. I said, "Hey!...What are you doing in my house?"

So My boss isn't happy with my work and he says I need to apply logical thinking but I can't find it in the chemists.

I've got a lisp. Terrible handicap for a stand-up. But it doesn't entitle you to a blue badge. It turns out.

My wife caught me with an escort, she said he was handsome.

I tried one of those escort services. 300 quid! But that included an MOT and new brake pads.

Not my own:

I was in the bank the other day and an old lady said 'Young man, can you check my balance?'

So I pushed her over and said 'Yeah, it's shit.'

I've just heard that my Gran suffered a massive seizure this morning. I didn't know she could even LIFT 20kg of Heroin.

So where's today's formula, Griff?

Now you're just making us feel bad.

Have you done it yet?

OK fair enough. Today's my deadline to deliver a sample piece of work for a potentially lucrative copywriting gig, and I should be working on it, but I'll drop all that and post another joke thread instead. Watch this space.

As in advertising or comedy copy writing?
