Came across a thread today with the promising title of "Jokes"
Unfortunately it fizzled out; not surprising given the mainly feeble examples; are jokes and humour generally now too unfashionable, unsophisticated for Netters? Take your pick! 
Hi Rufus we had a long running "Just Jokes" thread at one time, here it is, should keep you entertained for a while, it's 31 pages

There have been a few since then (I might even have started one, but you're right, sometimes they do just fizzle out).

Grannyknot, You've really done it! I came to my computer after lunch to do some some serious computing, like how to remove "write protect" from a USB stick and here I am at tea-time in a time warp! Back to 2012. Like Dr. Who!
Thoroughly entertaining; just the antidote to a miserable Sat. arvo. windy, rain, hail and cold.
I can't imagine whatever happened to finish off the thread unless the perpetrators were thrown into jail.
And I was thinking that some of the jokes I was planning to share would be too much for "dear, sensitive Grandmas" How old-fashioned am I?
Must go and get my liver and bacon dinner prepared to fortify myself for more belly- laughing.
Hang on! EPL kicks-off on live TV this evening, Newcastle v Spurs, Must get my priorities right, but I'll be back!
On another site I am on, there is a joke thread with over 17000 posts
JackyB; Stop your teasing! 
What and where is this jokes thread? Can anyone join? How much? Are all posts jokers? 17,000! That would take a week to work through that lot!

Grannyknot; Thanks again for that. It turned out to be a real marathon. Then it more or less ended around late 2013 and after a bit of researching I found out why. It must have been such a tragedy. There were no specific details, but given where it ended I can only guess.
GreatNan must have been quite a character and I would love to have met her on Gransnet. I'm sure she provided some lively discussions. 
I was relieved to find one of her comments saying that she only "cut and paste" from other sources; to think that she created all those jokes, from excellent to awful, out of her mind would have ruined my image of her She did a very good job.
Now for the rest of that thread.!
