Why can’t Helen Keller be president?
Because she’s dead.
Said entirely straightfaced. 50/50 shot of making someone laugh or making them give you a weird look. Bonus, most of the time people say because she’s a woman. Ha! Sexists, the lot of you!
Not sure if this counts??
Whats brown and sticky?
A stick.
@asmonet…I believe Helen Keller herself summed it up when she said, “MWAHNA BAAAAH SHEPTHHPRT BLEEEARGH!!!”.
last time i made a reference to hellen keller in a joke, i dislocated my knee and like pulled something in it about 1 second after, just walking across the classroom.

@Blondesjon: That reminds me of one of my other favorite Helen Keller jokes. One of my best friends, Zack (who is gay and has always made it a point to be tolerant of all people and become their defender against idiots), told it to me in the middle of the night at a lake with swans waddling around us and swimming about. Full moon, just a lovely oddly perfect night. Suddenly, he turns to me and with the best poker face I have ever seen, asks me the following:
Zack: Why did Helen Keller’s dog run away, asmo? Why would he?
Me: Uh…I don’t know, did he really?—
Zack: YOU WOULD TO IF YOUR NAME WAS NAAHMMNAMMBAMBAMNAAAAAMMUUUUUH.
Me: What. The. Shit. Laughing.
Long pause.
Zack: …Are there any more Doritos?
Seriously. Sometimes I turn around, and he’s just being ridiculous.
So a baboon and a priest walk into a bar and sit down. The bartender says “hey no baboons allowed”. So the baboon rips off the bartenders face and terrorizes the customers.

A duck goes into a pharmacy. He says to the pharmacist, “I need some ointment for my beak. It is very chapped.” The pharmacist says, “We have nothing for ducks here.”

Silly ‘Mo. IT WAS A JOKE. I’m protesting anti-jokes. PLUS, I’m too lazy to read those wiki articles. I don’t like reading informative things… besides Fluther.

When they ask, “Are you a truck?”
I answer “No.”
