One night, a thief broke into a house. Moving quietly through the living room, a loud voice startled him: "Jesus is watching you!"

Terrified, he froze in place. When everything fell silent, he moved again.

The voice rang out once more, "Jesus is watching you!"

Panicked, the thief looked around and saw a parrot in a cage.

"Was that you talking?" he asked.

"Yes," responded the parrot.

Relieved, the thief asked, "What do they call you?"

"Moses," the bird answered.

"Moses? That’s an odd name for a parrot. Who named you that?"

The parrot squawked, "The same fool who named the Rottweiler Jesus."

Moses's quick reply is just the start. Get ready for a humorous story that mixes mystery with lots of laughs. Hold your sides as we share this playful tale near the cemetery.

Two boys sat behind a nut tree near a cemetery fence, dividing a bucket of nuts. The bucket was so full some nuts spilled out and rolled near the fence. The boys didn't notice and kept dividing the contents.

"One for you, one for me," they said repeatedly.

A third boy biking past heard their voices and thought, "They're dividing souls for Satan and Saint Peter!" Scared, he ran to an older man further down the road. After convincing him, the man limped over to see what was happening.

Looking through the fence, they heard, "One for you, one for me..."

Trembling, the old man whispered, "This is serious!"

But just as they prepared to run, the boys finished dividing and said, "Now go get the ones by the fence."

The old man reportedly got back to town five minutes before the boys.

Those mischievous kids near the cemetery certainly knew how to create laughs. Now, shifting to a family story with a humorous twist, this next joke shows how some relatives can be quite inventive—or not—in tricky situations.

"Your brother, Joe," she answered. "And since I was under anesthesia, he also named the babies."

Horrified, he exclaimed, "Joe? That idiot! What did he call them?"

"We have a girl and a boy. He named the girl Deniece."

"Okay, that’s not too bad. What about the boy?"

"Joe named him De-nephew."

Joe’s creative naming definitely brought some laughs, but stay tuned for more. Now, let’s follow a farmer trying to communicate with a lawyer through the quirkiest requests.

The lawyer asked, "What reasons do you have?"

"About 140 acres," the farmer answered.

The lawyer pressed, "Do you hold a grudge?"

"Yeah—that's where I park my tractor."

Finally, the lawyer asked, "Why do you want to split up?"

The farmer sighed, "I never can have a serious talk with her."

His humorous take on communication had us in stitches. Next, we have a story involving a frog with an amusing prophecy that’s guaranteed to get a laugh.

A frog called a psychic hotline.

He was excited when the psychic said, "Next month, you'll meet a lovely young woman. She’ll be fascinated by you and want to learn everything."

"Where will I find her?" the frog asked eagerly. "At a party? Or walking past my pond?"

The psychic replied, "Not at a party. You'll meet her in her biology class next semester."

And just as you thought, things get more surprising with a wartime confession that’s both funny and shocking. This joke shows how serious moments can turn into comic relief. Let’s see.

A man in Amsterdam told his priest, "During WWII, I hid a refugee up in my attic."

"That’s not a sin," said the priest. "You helped someone who needed it."

"But I charged him 20 Gulden weekly," the man added.

The priest said, "That’s not ideal, but you still saved his life."

The man sighed deeply. "I can’t tell him the war is over?" he asked.

That moral problem from WWII certainly had a funny twist. Now, onto a workplace mishap that will make you laugh. Brace yourself.

Mark arrived at work with two bright red, sore ears.

His coworker asked, "What happened?"

Mark explained, "I was ironing while watching TV. The phone rang, so I answered it... with the hot iron in my hand."

"And the other ear?"

"He called back."

This phone mix-up had us cracking up. Now, a story about an elderly couple in a fast-food place, sharing everything in a funny way.

[object Object]

An older couple went into a fast-food place and ordered one burger and small fries. They carefully split everything—burger, fries, even the drink.

A nearby trucker felt sorry and offered to buy her her own meal.

The husband declined politely, saying, "We share everything."

Later, the trucker saw that, while the husband ate, the wife hadn’t touched her food.

Concerned, he asked, "Why aren’t you eating?"

She sharply replied, "I’m waiting for my teeth."

From funny food stories to a bat with a strange adventure, the next joke is sure to amuse you.

He led them through the woods to a tree.

"See that tree?" he asked.

"YES!" they shouted.

"Good," he said, "because I didn’t!"

That nocturnal adventure made this bat famous. Now, for a lighter moment, a flower shop mix-up that’s both funny and awkward.

[object Object]

But he was confused when the card read: "Deepest Sympathy."

He called the florist about the mistake, and she apologized, saying, "Sorry, your card was sent to the funeral home."

He asked what it said.

She said, "Congratulations on your new place."

Even florists have slip-ups, but wait till you hear about a lawyer with a witty name. This joke is all about wordplay and a fitting punchline.

[object Object]

A lawyer named Strange asked for a tombstone engraved with, "Here lies an honest man and a lawyer."

The stonecutter refused, saying, "Burying two in one grave isn’t allowed. I can put, 'Here lies an honest lawyer.'"

The lawyer protested, "How will everyone know it’s me?"

He was told, "Just read it. You'll see that it says, 'That’s Strange!'"

Now, let’s finish with a story about conditions so extreme they lead to an unexpected celebration.

[object Object]

A Texas farmer found himself in hell after death. Surprisingly, the Devil was baffled to see him happy and smiling in the heat.

"Why are you so cheerful?" asked the Devil.

The farmer responded, "This feels just like a hot June day when I’m plowing my fields back home."

The Devil, annoyed, raised the temperature to 105°F with humidity. Still, the farmer kept smiling.

Finally, the Devil froze hell over to -10°F.

To the Devil’s shock, the farmer started running and shouting happily.

"What are you celebrating now?" asked the Devil.

He yelled, "The Cowboys won the Super Bowl!"

Whether it’s a clever parrot, a stubborn farmer, or a humorous wartime story, these tales are sure to make you smile.
