So, this is my first ever post after lurking for 5+ years, and being a full-fledged member for the last 2. And this is really only prompted by a recent trip we took to Blacksburg a week or so ago to enjoy a quiet spring break weekend back on campus with my wife and 10-year old daughter. After spending most of Saturday walking around the campus, we headed out to Mountain Lake to show the ladies where Dirty Dancing was filmed. Needless to say, I was dog-tired after hiking up to Bald Knob for the first time since the late '80's when I was a student. Because I'm old and out-of-shape...clearly.
Cutting to the chase. We get back to the car and start the trek back down the mountain. For folks that haven't taken that trip, it isn't for the faint of heart. Especially when tired, as we all were. That was mistake #1. So, to while away the time, I gave my precocious pre-teen my phone so that she could google "age appropriate" jokes to tell us on the drive. That was mistake #2. The following 2 jokes, in rapid succession, nearly caused me to wreck the car due to my inability to breathe and the tears of laughter. Yes, I was punch-drunk tired, but these struck me in the best/worst possible way. It did not help that my daughter was giggling before she even read them aloud to us.
Exhibit #1:
Two goldfish are in a tank. One turns to the other and says, "Do you know how to drive this thing?"
Exhibit #2:
What is the difference between an oral and rectal thermometer?
The taste.
Yes, I know these are childish and simple, but they also almost caused us to take an epic flight off the mountain.
So, my "challenge" to the forum: Share your favorite "audience appropriate" jokes. Mine are terrible, but at the time, they were literally the funniest things I have heard in a long while.
Or just have Joe delete this post.

It's best if you read the punchline in Korg's voice:

A piece of string walks into a bar, climbs up on a bar stool and orders a drink. The bar tender tells him, "you need to leave, we don't serve your kind here." So the string calmly walks out of the bar, ties himself up, and ruffles the top of his head a bit and walks back in and climbs back on the stool. the bar tender catches him quick, and asks "aren't you the same piece of string I just kicked out of here?" To which the string replies "no, I'm a frayed knot."

Mother Teresa had just died and gone up to heaven. When she gets to the pearly gates, St. Peter recognizes her and calls her to the front to welcome her in. He personally gives her a tour of the place, she gets her halo. St Peter says, the holier thou art in life, the larger your halo. Mother Teresa sees that it is a very large and luminous one.
Soon, they meet Princess Diana. Teresa and Diana reminisce on their charity work throughout the world, and after a long talk, Diana excuses herself, so St. Peter could show Mother Teresa around more.
After a short walk, Mother Teresa turns to St. Peter and says, "I don't mean to sound petty or unappreciative, but I understand she did great works around the world, but I devoted my life to Christ. How is it that her halo is so much bigger than mine?"
St. Peter thinks for a second then retorts, "That's not a halo, that's a steering wheel!"
the irony of this joke is as rich as the punchline. well played
Jesus Christ lmao

A guy goes to the local watering hole with his dog. The bartender wouldn't let him in with the dog but the man pleaded, exclaiming:
"But the dog does tricks, he's fun to have in the bar!"
The bartender replied:
"yeah? what kind of tricks?"
To which the man explained:
"Well, he loves college football and every week we watch UVa and Virginia Tech football games. Whenever Virginia Tech wins he runs back and forth along the bar on his hind legs. Whenever UVa wins he runs back and forth along the bar on his front legs."
The bartender agrees to let the dog into the bar and after some time realizes that at some point the two schools play each other, so he asks:
"So what happens when UVa and Virginia Tech play each other?"
The man responds:
"When Virginia Tech wins the dog does back flips back and forth along the bar!!"
The bartender, impressed, replies:
"So what does he do when UVa wins?"
The man pauses for a moment, pensively, before replying:
"Well, I don't know. The dog's only 14 years old!"

Guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. Bartender is hesitant to allow it, but the guy assures him that he's tame and will just sit on his shoulder. He orders a beer, drinks it, eats some peanuts, then orders another brewski. About halfway thru the second beer, the cue ball from the pool table gets hit onto the floor. The monkey hears this, jumps down, grabs the cue ball, and swallows it whole! The bartender is in a snit, and kicks the man and his monkey out.
As he is leaving, the bartender yells "You better bring me another cue ball, that's the only one we have!!!"
A few days go by, and the guy walks into the bar, again. He has the cue ball in his hand and the monkey on his shoulder. The bartender isn't having it and refuses to let them in. The guy offers to buy a round for the house, and promises the monkey will behave this time. Promises. The bartender reluctantly allows it and pours beers for all the current patrons. After a few minutes, the monkey does jump off his shoulder onto the bar. He walks over the peanut bowl. Grabs one, looks at it, and shoves it up his butt. Then he eats it. This happens a few times before the bartender realizes what's going on and comes over yelling at the guy. "We can't have that in here! What is he doing?!!" The guy tells him it's alright..."It's ok, he's just hungry. And ever since he passed the cue ball, he sizes everything."

For some social experiment an Engineer, A Physicist, and A Mathematician are each locked in a small room with more than enough canned food to last them a month, but no can opener. Upon returning a month later, the door to the Engineer's room was opened and it was discovered that he was not there. He had blasted a hole in the wall using a explosive created from some pocket lent, aluminum shavings, and other random pocket items. When the door to the physicists room was opened it was discovered that he had identified the exact angle to strike the edge of the lid to pop it open, and was working on his throwing arm. When the door to the mathematicians room was opened he was found deceased on the floor and scribbled in his own blood was: "If I open the cans, I will be able to eat and live. Proof by contradiction; assume the opposite is also true."

VT's engineers were tasked to build a Scram Jet.
