[This one did make me chuckle for some reason.]

The parrot joke

A man had a parrot that could talk. Unfortunately, it swore a lot. In an effort to get the parrot to be quiet, he put him in a cupboard. The parrot continued swearing and after a while the man decided to put the bird in the freezer. After that, the parrot started swearing even more. After a few minutes, he suddenly became quiet. The man opened up the freezer and the parrot said, "I'm sorry, sir, it will never happen again." As the man took the bird out of the freezer he wondered what the difference was between the cupboard and the freezer. Just then, the parrot said, "So, uh, what'd the chicken do?"

On Eating People

Cleveland Amory

A missionary was walking in Africa when he heard the ominous sound of a lion behind him. "Oh Lord," prayed the missionary, "Grant in Thy goodness that the lion walking behind me is a good Christian lion."

A bumper sticker

Save a Cow, Eat a Vegetarian

Etan W.

Two chums were talking at a ballgame and one offered to buy the other a hotdog.

Terrible Headlines

Very Punny

Etan W.

A vivisector is having a nightmare: lying on a cold steel table, he's going numb as a giant rat approaches with a large knife.
The rat says, "We are going to need those kidneys, my friend."
"Wait!" shouts the vivisector. "I understand that I'm going to die, but just tell me, is it for the good of humanity?"
"Something like that," the rat tells him with a smirk. "It's for the good of two manatees."

Every so often (usually when I have something important I should be doing) I take the time to browse through the logs of my site--it is interesting to see what brings people here. Here's one I thought I'd share: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=fart+a+lot+when+I+drink+soy+milk. I made it a link for you because if you're like me, you'll feel the urge to try this search for yourself (although it's not very exciting).

A bumper sticker

Karen, Paraphrased from a true story in Reader's Digest.

A husband and wife were sitting around talking about their hard day at work and the wife was complaining that she needed to be more assertive to get anywhere, etc. when her husband told her, "You know what the problem is don't you?  It's a dog eat dog world out there, and you're a vegetarian!"

Not a joke, but an amusing response to this page from Tes

Cows or cats would eat us too if they had a chance. Do not mistake a cat's respect for one that is dominate for love, they are killers plain and simple and if you do not believe me ask their friends the birds.

Vegans Who Can't Take a Joke

A selection of some of the responses (all separate despite their commonalities) from angry vegans who didn't get that this was a vegan-run page. Funnier than the jokes themselves.

Why can't you make carnivore jokes and leaves us alone!!!!

I'll see you all in HELL! [um, doesn't that imply that you'll be there too?]

i just want to say that all your jokes are f**ckin lame. go get a hobby, please! there is nothing funny about joking about eating the flesh of a slaughtered animal. you people make me sick. i hope you choke on your own words. meat is murder. A.L.F bitch and you best be believing f**kface! [and people wonder why I don't think the A.L.F. is non-violent]

You have the WORST f**king jokes on your shitty website. THEY ARE SO GODDAMN STUPID!

What is so wrong with people that want animal rights? You need to get a life...

F**k you guys. It's not that controversial of an issue. Some people like eating carcass, while on the other hand, some don't. get over it.

I think you idiots dont know what y'all are talking about... I am a vegetarian and I didn't find any of these jokes funny! The real joke is is that someone let y'all come and humiliate yourselves. The joke is on y'all!

wtf what is the matter with you. is there some perverse humor in making fun of other people's beliefs? If i decide i want to better my health and like that's my own f***ing choice and i should be able to live with it myself without others making fun of it.
XOXO PETA_4_LIFE!!!!!!!! [I think this speaks volumes about PETA supporters.]

How many carnivores does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One, if they can even turn away from making horrible inhumane jokes about something they no little or none about, offending millions who actually do know what's happening in this world.
