I love to make really bad similes/metaphors like "I have the memory of a fish with very poor memory" or "I'm as tall as a tree thats my height".

Another one I've gotten a lot of good mileage out of

I once joked to my wife that avocados need to get better prizes because I always seem to get the same one- a little wooden ball.

Now, anytime I'm in the kitchen preparing something with avocados, I'll let out an audible groan of frustration.

Which always prompts my wife to ask, usually from the other room "What's wrong?"

To which I always reply "Another wooden ball"

Always good for a groan and some eye rolls from the wife. She never seems to see it coming.

    Three friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, the rival florist across town thought the competition was< unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close down, but they would not. He asked his mother to go and ask the friars to get out of the business. They would not. So, the rival florist hired Hugh McTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to persuade them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close their business. Terrified, they did so - thereby proving that: Hugh, and only Hugh can prevent florist friars.

    So you know how geese fly in that V-formation to reduce air resistance?

    You know how sometimes the one arm of the "V" is longer than the other?

    You know why that is?

    spoilerBecause that side has more geese.

    Best told while you're just out shooting the shit walking around outside when you can point out some geese acting like you're just pointing out another fun nature fact.

    What do you call a fly with legs without wings? A walk.

    Two men are lost in the desert weak from thirst and starvation. One of them spots something and says Hey man, there is a bacon tree over there! The second man says "no such a thing as a bacon tree, that's just a mirage", but the first is already running toward the tree. Just then, a hidden soldier under the tree shoots the first man with a machine gun. As he lay dying, he shouts to warn his friend: "it's not a bacon tree, it's a ham bush".

    It's between two. If they have a sense of humor I go with this one:

    Person: Hey, my name is $name

    Me, with the tone of a generic highschool bully: Nice name, did your mom pick it out for you?

    If I can't:

    Person: What's your name?

    Person: Oh that's a nice name!

    Dude.
    Bruh!
    Broski..
    Okay, I'll make a final attempt...
    In the joke, the 'thinkable' is actually 'sinkable'.
    Which is not clear when you say it the first time because it sounds like you're saying 'think' & 'thinkable', both of which are actually words.
    Trick lies in enunciating the punchline.
    Hence the Mike Tyson reference.
    Now, if you still haven't got it, I really hope you are very very very rich so that you can survive in this world with that super smooth brain in your skull.
    If you did get it now, henceforth it is your ethical and moral duty to spread this stupid-ass joke every time you get the chance.
    God speed and be weird.

    Basiclly, if someone needs something like a lemon squeezer or something else ending with "er" I always like the classic "squeeze her? I hardly know her!" style joke.

    That, or something dumb like the "I wanted to tell you a pizza joke but it's too cheesy!" type of joke.

    Those were two of the first things that popped into my mind.
