The one with andrew has 2 faults now I look at it, too many adjectives for andrew and you run past the punch.

You should really have no more than 3 descriptives and the last one should be the reveal.

e.g.

Police catch man in grounds of Buckingham Police, the bad tempered, unemployed squaddie, claimed it was his mother's house.

As someone who reads and writes a lot of jokes, the only one that stands out is the one about Prince Andrew, the rest are nowhere near funny enough and in particular, the Diana one, been done already quite a few times.

I would agree with others that the GTA joke doesn't really work. I would also say that the Diana joke seems a bit tired and done to death. I liked the others though.

Def.

Dennis Nilsen's old flat is up for sale. Still full of lots of original features. A nose, a couple of ears, a penis...
Would maybe work if reworded

I think this is a good joke, but it sort of falls down because althogh Nilsen cut up the bodies, he didn't particularly remove the facial features. Also a penis isn;t a feature, funny though it is at the end of the joke.

My advice is, save this one for the next time property is being sold from the Michael Jackson estate, and you'll be onto a winner.

Yes I was thinking that
"original features" could work great with a Michael Jackson or someone who is known for extensive plastic surgery

How about?

Dennis Nilsen's old flat is to be rented out part furnished, complete with Foot-Stools, Arm-Chairs, Head-Boards, and door-knockers!

Irony! Nick81 telling people their jokes have been done before, is one of the most repeated posts on Critique!

P.S. Have you heard the joke about the guy who's already heard every joke going?

He was an expert masturbator, as he could always pull the other one.

For the simple reason, they have. I'm not trying to be clever (like your failed attempt at petty retribution on my sketch also in critique), simply point out none of it is original. Ultimately you should be grateful that I'm giving you the heads up.

I look forward to hearing some original jokes from you in the future.

Not trying to be funny here, but if you two want to play "I'm cleverer than you", take it into PM and the f**k out of this thread.

Ta.

I was merely responding to his ridiculous comment, so I apologise for going off topic.

However, as this is critique, I've given my opinion regarding your post and it still stands, just very average unoriginal material.

Your opinion, you're entitled to it and thank you for expressing it. Even if it had been a glowing endorsement, I would still have said the same.

No problem.
