My First Joke.

I like that, because it uses the stereotype promoted by their advertising campaign where an elderly and kind-hearted grandfather was seen to give his grandson a Werthers Original, as a way of bonding between them, which no doubt resonated with many of the viewing public and their own relationships with their grandparents. As such, the Werthers Original brand became synonymous with elderly relatives giving sweets to their younger grandchildren. The first bit of the joke is therefore entirely innocent, as it is expected that an elderly gentleman might distribute Werthers Original to younger children.

However, the second part utilises the nature of said Werthers Original, namely that they have a smooth, creamy taste. It also relies on the stereotype that elderly gentlemen can have paedophilic tendencies towards younger children, the most well-known example in popular culture probably being Mr. Herbert from Family Guy. Taken in this context, getting children used to 'something creamy' in their mouth is construed as the elderly gentlemen preparing the children to receive their ejaculate, most likely by means of fellatio in an act of paedophilia, which when contrasted to the innocent nature of the first phrase, provides a discernable 'shock value'. The 'shock' and surprise however, later turns to humour when the construction of the joke, the element of surprise and the taboo subject it broached is appreciated.

All in all, I liked this joke, and would certainly welcome more contributions from the poster.

Serious?
 
Quick dirty jokes are never as good as the well thought out clean ones in my opinion. Cheap laughs, that's right.

4/10 for effort, actual joke 3/10. Try harder.

These are my opinions, I am entitled to them.
 
Yeah, I've heard this joke before as well... I just go by the assumption that anything I make up has probably been done to death by some comedian.

You only need a single question mark. You should also learn to capitalise the start of your sentences, particularly when criticising somebody elses English.

;)

4/10 malc, certainly read worse on here.
 
I wouldn't claim it as your own, I've used something similar before "it gets kids used to something hard in their mouth with a bit of a creamy kick back, that's why I buy them for my niece" - that said; it is still foul with that tickle that gets people to laugh :)

7/10
 
It got a smirk and a small one time laugh. Which is actually a good response for a written joke with me. So 8/10.
 
Thats rubbish, seeing as it works on the basis that all old men are pedophiles, which is not something I've heard before? I'd use some famous old pedo or try and incorporate the catholic preist thing into it.

2/10 if that.

Might just be that I'm so far gone in the sick **** stakes I didn't find it at all thrilling, I expect an old person might laugh, no, wait...

Yeah sounds like you're a grumpy old man :p
Just blame it on the 'youth of today' and 'things ain't like they used to be'. :D

Ha ha, no just my kind of comedy is actually dirty, I mean filthy. Jim jeffries is a good example.

My grandads always going on about completely unfunny comedians "Oh you don't have to be blue to be funny" but all these old comedians who told one liners are crap compared to todays observational comedians. He's turned into a right ****er since he's come into money, he used to swear loads but now says you don't need to swear.
You do sometimes to add emphasis, like "I AM SO ****ING ANGRY RIGHT NOW" or to take the mick "Shut up you fat ****"

Everyone has different tastes but I like sick comedy. Dead baby jokes and suck.
