That’s a goodie, a wonder you didn’t hear me laughing half a world away, tickled our daughter too. Thank you.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

That was really funny

Hilarious!!

Heard this a long while ago. I think it’s funny. I’m not sure about some of the miserable people on here though! Laugh! It’s a joke!

Thanks for the laugh 😂😂

I laughed as well. It’s a joke and that’s it. Nice to read something that makes you chuckle at the moment.

Blimey Aussiegran59 that’s a long marriage. It must be love

I thought it was funny too.

Very funny, made me laugh too.

"Laugh? My knickers were wringing". Thanks, Bodach, that's made my day..

I thought it was funny but I have a sense of humour and don’t take myself seriously.

Bodach

As my mother used to say: "Laugh? My knickers were wringing.."

That's funnier than the original joke. 🤣🤣🤣

Made me giggle - it’s a joke not a statement of fact 😱

Exactly, Callistemon21! But we love our fantastic Aussie men. Wouldn’t swap mine for the world and we’ve been married since 1879.

Sounds as though he came over on a convict ship....just joking.
I chose mine and he chose me at 17, we split up many times and married 7 years later.
I think he would be on the Victor Meldrew floor if there was one. Though the DDs and GC love him to bits just like me.
It did make me laugh.
Would I look for the same 40 years later yes I think I would?

Who is Rufus?

FannyCornforth

Welbeck I’m with you.
Misandry, misogyny and even misanthropy.
Where is the humour? It’s just a clunky gag with a list of depressing stereotypes

What was the view like from the top floor?

Rufus was a male poster from Oz. He has a great sense of humour and enjoyed winding up some of the Grans. He was over 90. He just stopped posting and we all suspect the worst. We used to communicate via email but that's not operational any more.

It's a laughing emoji from me! [laugh] ... never added an emoji before (showing my age) - there isn't one listed on here for laughing so am experimenting. If it all goes horribly wrong I apologise for being computer illiterate (practically!).

[laughing] ?

I give up!

I laughed. I haven't lost my sense of humour in this PC world we live in.

I had a good laugh too.
Thank you for posting.
This is Gransnet and most like a joke.
I feel sorry for the miserable folk in life.
‘Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry alone’
We’ve had few laughs recently. xx

My mother used to quote that saying, it was one of the most depressing ones in her repertoire! I like to think that if someone is crying I will stand with them not leave them alone
