Over on Twitter, we’re really pleased to have found the sublimely funny account @KidsWriteJokes, which is basically a curation of hilarious material that has been sent to the tumblr account Bad Kids Jokes. We loved it instantly and thought you would too.
This is proof that kids don’t say the funniest things, but actually do. These jokes are sublime in their oddity, their surrealism and their downright un-jokiness. What goes on in kid’s minds is revealed in its fullness here and it’s truly worth a look.
We’ve picked a selection of 13 we think you’ll love, but in truth, the account is an absolute gold mine. Hope you enjoy them – and think about visiting and following them too.
What’s the difference between…?
There is truth in this, you know.
A what now?
Sublime. Just sublime. The rhyming, the content, the….no wait, it’s awful.
The elephant/peanut connection
Beautiful joke, and expertly reviewed as well. This kid will go very far. Especially if there is a peanut at the end of the rainbow.
Anatomically correct
A great philosophical point. What are we all, if not walking eggs minus the shell?
More philosophy
If there’s nothing else to do, then why not? It’s sterile after all. And it’s the end of the world, so no-one will ever know.
The best knock-knock joke ever
If only they all ended this way, life would be a lot simpler.
A fair point, well made
This kid probably got an iPod for their birthday. And why not? Boomerangs are rubbish. It’s true. You throw them away and they come back.
Crocadooladoo baby
To be fair, this is actually a cracking family name. Crocodooladoo could be the next big playground hit.
Its why we all go on dates, in all honesty
And you know, they do say opposites attract
Trees need medical help too
And sometimes we all need to be pruned don’t we?
Butt fruit
It is a truth universally acknowledged that kids naturally gravitate towards wee, poo and butts as a matter of course. And it’s never not funny.
Stupid Mario
Yeah, I don’t know what his nickname is so I’ll make one up, but it’ll be much funnier.
Pizza lols
Everyone knows pizzas are not long LOL. They’re circular silly.
