Since her new husband was so old, Jenny decided that after their wedding she and Robert should have separate bedrooms, because she was concerned that her husband might overexert himself if they spent the entire night together.
After the wedding festivities, Jenny prepared herself for bed and heard the expected knock on the door. When she opened it, Robert was standing there, ready for action. After they both climaxed, he left the room and she got ready to go to sleep.
An hour later, Jenny heard another knock on her bedroom door. Robert was standing there, ready for another round. Somewhat surprised, Jenny invited him in and they had sex a second time. When the newlyweds were done, Robert kissed his bride, wished her a fond good night and left.
She curled up in bed, but within a couple hours Robert was knocking on the door again. And once more, he thoroughly pleasured her. But as he turned to leave, his young bride said to him, "I am surprised that you can perform so well and so often. I have been with guys less than a third of your age who were only good once. You are truly a great lover, Robert."
Robert, somewhat embarrassed, looked at Jenny and said, "You mean I was in here already?"
Joke Poo: Professor’s Plagiarism
Professor Eldridge, a renowned but forgetful historian of 78, hired a bright-eyed young research assistant, Clara, 23, to help him finish his magnum opus. Eldridge, constantly misplacing his notes and rambling about events that never happened, was heavily reliant on Clara to keep him on track.
Clara, deeply concerned about the Professor’s mental state and the integrity of his upcoming book, insisted that she review each chapter meticulously before he submitted it to the publisher. She worried he might accidentally include someone else’s work, or get basic historical facts completely wrong.
After the Professor finished the first chapter, Clara spent hours painstakingly verifying every citation, cross-referencing dates, and fact-checking obscure historical details. She found a few minor errors and inconsistencies, which she corrected before returning the chapter to the Professor with detailed notes.
A week later, the Professor presented her with the second chapter. Again, Clara threw herself into the work, finding and correcting several glaring inaccuracies and awkwardly worded passages. She felt a growing sense of dread that this book, which was supposed to cement Eldridge’s legacy, might actually ruin it.
When the Professor handed her the third chapter, Clara finally broke down. “Professor,” she said, her voice trembling, “I’m finding so many mistakes! I’m worried you’re not well enough to be writing this book. This is supposed to be your masterpiece!”
Professor Eldridge, his brow furrowed in confusion, looked at Clara and said, “Wait, I wrote a chapter already?”
Okay, let’s dissect this joke.
Key Elements:
- Age Gap: The core premise is the significant age difference between Robert and Jenny (85 vs. 25). This sets up expectations about Robert’s physical capabilities.
- Assumed Incapacity: Jenny’s concern about Robert “overexerting himself” reinforces the stereotype of older men having diminished sexual stamina.
- The Twist: The unexpected frequency of Robert’s visits subverts this expectation, creating surprise and humor.
- Robert’s Amnesia: The punchline reveals the real reason for Robert’s multiple visits – he can’t remember being there before. This is the core of the joke’s comedic absurdity.
- Underlying theme: The joke plays on assumptions related to aging, sexual performance, and cognitive function.
Humorous Analysis:
The humor derives from the contrast between Jenny’s assumptions about Robert’s age and his apparent vigor, followed by the even more absurd truth of his forgetfulness. The joke is effective because it leans into established stereotypes only to undermine them in a surprising and slightly unsettling way.
Now, let’s use these elements to create some new humor:
New Joke:
A doctor is examining Robert, the 85-year-old newlywed. “Robert,” the doctor says, “You’re in remarkable shape. But I have to ask, your new wife says you visit her bedroom three times a night…are you sure you should be doing that at your age?”
Robert shrugs. “Well Doc, Jenny gets mad if I don’t. She yells at me.”
The doctor pauses, “She gets mad if you don’t? How does she know if you visited or not?”
Robert shrugs again, “I dunno, Doc. All I know is she’s got one of them Apple AirTags hidden on her nightstand.”
Witty Observation:
“Age is just a number,” they say. But when it comes to short-term memory, those numbers start looking like lottery odds.
Amusing ‘Did You Know’ Fact:
Did you know that while age-related memory decline is a real phenomenon, studies have shown that staying physically and socially active can significantly slow the process? So, Robert might actually remember all those visits if he spent less time making them and more time doing crossword puzzles!
Bonus Joke:
Jenny’s friends were gossiping about her marriage to Robert. “I just don’t understand it,” said one. “What does a young woman like you see in an old guy like him?”
Jenny smiled slyly. “Well, at least I know he won’t remember where he left my birthday present.”
