A man takes his cross-eyed horse to the veterinarian and ask how to fixed his horse's eyes. The vet says, "not much we can do, but one thing might work."
The vet takes out a hose and sticks one end up the horse's butt and blows on the other end. "Did that work?", asks the vet. "No", says the man, "Let me try."
The man takes out the hose, turns it around, putting the other end in the horse's butt, and starts to blow on the opposite end. "Wait, what are doing?", the vet asks. The man answers, "I don't want to blow on the same end that you blew on!"
Joke Poo: The Forgetful Goldfish
A woman takes her goldfish, who suffers from severe short-term memory loss, to a pet psychic. She asks how to fix his goldfish’s memory. The psychic says, “Not much we can do, but one thing might work.”
The psychic takes out a miniature microphone and places one end near the goldfish’s bowl, then starts recording. “Did that work?” asks the psychic. “No,” says the woman, “Let me try.”
The woman takes the microphone, carefully positions the recording end pointing into the bowl, and starts shouting, “Hi, Finny! You’re a goldfish! Remember that!?” The psychic stares, bewildered. “Wait, what are you doing?” he asks. The woman answers, “I don’t want to record over what you just said! He needs to remember that!”
Alright, let’s dive into this equine ocular oddity!
Joke Dissection:
- Premise: A man seeks a cure for his horse’s cross-eyed condition.
- Complication: The vet proposes an unorthodox and frankly, ridiculous solution involving a hose and…well, you know.
- Punchline: The man’s aversion to sharing saliva with the vet trumps his concern for the horse’s vision, revealing a humorous and slightly crude prioritizing of personal hygiene over animal welfare. The humor lies in the unexpected reaction and the juxtaposition of the serious problem with a trivial concern.
- Key Elements:
- Cross-eyedness (Strabismus)
- Veterinarian
- Implausible Medical Procedure
- Shared saliva/Hygiene
Comedic Enrichment: Fact-Based Fun & New Joke Idea
Okay, let’s leverage the key elements for some comedic enrichment:
A Witty Observation:
Did you know that a horse’s field of vision is almost 360 degrees? That cross-eyed horse was probably seeing more of himself than anything else. Talk about an existential crisis in the stable! Maybe the vet’s hose solution was less about the eyes and more about giving the horse a different perspective…literally.
An Amusing “Did You Know?”:
Did you know that horses, unlike humans, can’t vomit? So, even if the vet’s hose procedure did somehow adjust the horse’s eye muscles, the poor animal would have had no way to express its displeasure at the experience other than more cross-eyed stares… and perhaps a well-aimed kick!
New Joke Idea:
A cross-eyed horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, “Hey, why the long faces… or face, I can’t really tell?” The horse replies, “It’s not the faces, pal. It’s trying to decide if I’m coming or going. Makes ordering a drink a real pain. Can I get a pint of… hey, is that my tail?”
