Well, let me tell ya, wintertime, it ain’t no joke, especially when that wind starts howlin’ like a hungry wolf and the snow piles up higher than your grandma’s beehive hairdo. But you know what? A good laugh can warm you up better than a whole pile of quilts, so let’s get to it.
Them Funny Winter Jokes
I heard this one down at the feed store the other day. A fella says, “Why don’t scientists trust atoms?” And the other fella, he scratches his head and says, “I dunno, why?” First fella, he grins like a possum eatin’ persimmons and says, “Because they make up everything!” See? It ain’t much, but it gets ya grinnin’. That’s what winter’s all about, findin’ little things to smile at.
And then there’s them jokes about the cold itself. My ol’ man, he used to say, “It’s so cold out there, I saw a politician with his hands in his OWN pockets!” Lord, that man could make ya laugh. It’s true though, winter does strange things to folks. Makes ’em huddle up close and tell stories, and sometimes them stories are jokes.
I remember one winter, the snow was so deep, we couldn’t even get the tractor out to feed the chickens. We were all sittin’ around the woodstove, lookin’ glum as a rained-on rooster. My youngest, little Billy, he pipes up and says, “Why did the snowman quit his job?” We all just stared at him, too cold to even guess. He says, “Because he got sacked!” Well, sir, we laughed so hard, I thought we’d shake the whole house down. Little Billy, he was always a card.
- More Jokes to Keep You Warm
- What do you call a lazy kangaroo? Pouch potato! Not really a winter joke, but it makes me chuckle.
- Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field! Another one that ain’t about winter, but good for a giggle.
- How does a penguin build its house? Igloos it together! Now there’s a winter one for ya.
You know, winter’s a good time for thinkin’. When you’re sittin’ there, watchin’ the snow fall, your mind kinda wanders. And sometimes, it wanders right into a joke. Like this one time, I was lookin’ out the window, seein’ the icicles hangin’ down like shiny daggers, and I thought to myself, “What do you call a cold dog sittin’ on a bun?” A chili dog! Just popped right into my head, like a squirrel out of a hollow log.
The Best Kind of Winter Warmth
Folks say laughter is the best medicine, and I reckon they’re right. When you’re feelin’ the chill in your bones and the gray skies are gettin’ you down, a good joke can be just the thing to lift your spirits. It don’t have to be fancy or complicated, just somethin’ to make you snort and forget about the cold for a minute.
So, next time you’re bundled up tighter than a tick on a hound dog, and the winter winds are howlin’ outside, remember these jokes. Tell ’em to your family, tell ’em to your friends, tell ’em to the dog, if he’ll listen. And if you can’t remember these jokes, make up your own! The important thing is to keep laughin’. It’ll keep you warm inside and out, and that’s what matters when winter comes a-callin’.
And here’s one more for the road, just to send you on your way with a smile. Why don’t bears wear shoes in the winter? Because they have bear feet! Alright now, you go on and stay warm, and don’t forget to laugh a little. It’ll do ya good, I promise.
Keep those jokes comin’! It ain’t just about hearin’ ’em, it’s about sharin’ ’em too. Next time you’re at the store, or the post office, or even just waitin’ in line for gas, tell somebody a joke. You never know, you might just make their day a little brighter, and that’s somethin’ worth doin’, especially in the dead of winter. Like they say, laughter is contagious, and that’s one thing I don’t mind catchin’!
