Why is a car ferry like a condom?

Posted on June 5, 2025 by Joke Poo

Roll-on, roll-off, full of seamen and if you get a hole in one, you're sunk.

Okay, here’s my attempt at a "Joke Poo" based on that one, maintaining a similar structure and trying for a comparable level of… ahem… wordplay:

Joke Poo: Why is a colostomy bag like a parachute?

Roll-on, roll-off, full of crap, and if it fails, you’re in deep shit.

Okay, let’s dive into this nautical nightmare of a joke!

Joke Dissection:

  • Core Elements:
    • Pun/Analogy: It relies on a double meaning, equating a car ferry to a condom.
    • Humor: The humor comes from the unexpected and somewhat crude comparison, juxtaposing the everyday image of a ferry with the more delicate (and potentially disastrous) implications of condom use.
    • Key Phrases: "Roll-on, roll-off," "full of seamen," "hole in one," "sunk" – These are deliberately ambiguous, applying to both ferries and condoms in a suggestive way.

Fact-Based Comedic Enrichment:

Let’s use some actual ferry facts and condom history to build something new.

Option 1: ‘Did You Know?’ Infusion

"So, you know how a car ferry is like a condom – roll-on, roll-off, full of seamen, and a hole means you’re sunk? Well, did you know that the world’s shortest regularly scheduled car ferry route is in Stockholm, Sweden? It’s just 75 meters (246 feet) long! Imagine the awkwardness if that ferry had a…compromise. You’d be ‘sunk’ almost as soon as you started!"

Why this works: It takes the original joke and tacks on a factual, slightly absurd detail to amplify the humor. The image of a tiny ferry experiencing a ‘problem’ is inherently funnier because of the scale.

Option 2: Historical Condom Counterpoint

"The car ferry/condom joke is…well, it’s a thing. But let’s consider history! Pre-vulcanized rubber condoms (think 18th century) were often made from treated animal intestines. Now that’s a roll-on, roll-off situation you really wouldn’t want a hole in. Imagine explaining to the captain why your roll-on roll-off protection is, well, all natural…"

Why this works: This adds a layer of historical perspective and potentially gross-out humor. By referencing the (uncomfortable) history of condoms, it emphasizes the potential unpleasantness of failure.

Option 3: New (Slightly Cleaner) Joke

"Why is the Staten Island Ferry like the shipping forecast?
Because they both involve long periods and high seas, with a slight chance of congestion."

Why this works: Keeps the nautical theme, but hints at the potentially uncomfortable realities of public transport.

In all these examples, the key is to leverage the existing elements of the joke – the analogy, the double meaning, the inherent awkwardness – and amplify it with a dash of unexpected information or a fresh perspective.
