The Generic Joke List ...

I receive so many jokes from people who just want to insult one school or state or another. But the jokes could easily be applied to anyone, anywhere at anytime. My intent with starting these pages was to gather jokes about Michigan and the Great Lakes region; jokes that have some meaning to Michiganders and our neighbors and probably no where else.

But because I still get lots and lots of generic jokes, I'm going to start posting some of the funnier ones here. I can't guarantee I won't change the recipient of the butt of the joke from time to time to keep things even. I hope you like these.

P.S. I know that there will be some generic jokes on the other pages. Luckily, it's my site and I don't have to justify why I'm leaving them there! ;)

Three girls graduate high school together and apply for the same college. Part of the college entrance exam is to pass a physical examination. All three girls make appointments with the same doctor on the same day.

While sitting in the waiting room, the doctor comes in, brings the first girl into the exam room and asks her to remove her blouse. After doing so, the doctor notices a large letter "O" on her chest. Quite taken back, he asks, "I don't mean to seem forward, but what is that on your chest?" The girl, quite embarassed, says, "Well doc, it's a little embarassing, but my boyfriend goes to Ohio State University and he likes to wear his letterman's jacket when we make love." The doctor thinks about it for a minute and replies, "A little unusual, but I understand." She passes and he calls in the second girl.

"Would you please have a seat and remove your blouse?" After doing so, he notices she has a large letter "I" on her chest. At the risk of sounding shocked, he asks, "What is that?" The second girl responds, "See doc, my boyfriend goes to Indiana University and he likes to wear his letterman's jacket when we make love." "Ok," replies the doctor and sends her out.

He finally brings in the third girl and asks her to have a seat and remove her blouse. When she does, the doctor is amazed to see a big letter "M" on the girl's chest. Thinking he knows how to approach this one he says, "Don't tell me, your boyfriend goes to the University of Michigan and he likes to wear his letterman's jacket when you make love, right?" "No, no, doc. You've got it all wrong . . . my girlfriend goes to Wisconsin!"

On a tour of Florida, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the coast for some sightseeing. He was cruising along the beach in the Popemobile when there was a frantic commotion just off shore.

A helpless man, wearing a Michigan jersey, was struggling frantically to free himself from the jaws of a 25-foot shark.

As the Pope watched, horrified, a speedboat came racing up with three men wearing Ohio State jerseys aboard. One quickly fired a harpoon into the shark's side. The other two reached out and pulled the bleeding, semi-conscious Wolverine fan from the water.

Then using (autographed by Woody himself) baseball bats, the three heroes in OSU Red beat the shark to death and hauled it into the boat.

Immediately the Pope shouted and summoned them to the beach. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions," he told them. "I heard that there was some bitter hatred between Buckeye and Michigan fans, but now I have seen with my own eyes that this is not the truth."

As the Pope drove off, the harpooner asked his buddies, "Who was that?"

"It was the Pope," one replied. "He is in direct contact with God and has access to all of God's wisdom."

"Well," the harpooner said, "He may have access to God's wisdom, but he doesn't know s--t about shark fishing.... how's the bait holding up?"

A graduate from the Michigan State University's School of Agriculture decided to start a chicken farm. He bought a farm, cleared the land and prepared the ground. He ordered 10,000 chicks and proceeded to bury them up to their necks in the ground. Though he watered them everyday, they soon died. He was determined to follow his dream so he ordered 10,000 more chicks and buried them head down. Though he again watered and weeded, they soon died. Frustrated he wrote the Dean of the MSU's School of Agriculture and explained all that he had done. After a few days he received a reply from the Dean: Please send soil samples!!

AN OSU football player was almost killed in a horseback riding incident. He fell out of the saddle, caught one foot in a stirrup -- and came close to being trampled to death. Just in the nick of time, the Meijer store greeter rushed over and unplugged the horse.

The Seven Dwarfs are in a cave when the roof collapses. Snow White runs to the entrance and yells into the darkness, "Somebody, say something!"

A teacher asks her young class how many of them are Michigan State Spartan fans. Not really knowing what a Spartan fan was but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air.

There is, however, one exception. Joe has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks him why he has decided to be different.

"Because I am not a Spartan fan."

"Then," asks the teacher, "What are you?"

"Why, I'm a proud Wolverine fan," boasts Joe.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Joe why he is a Wolverine fan.

"Well, my mom and dad are Wolverine fans, so I'm a Wolverine fan also."

The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?"

A pause, and a smile. "Well... then," says Joe, "I'd be a Spartan fan."

The people reply, "Some Michigan students rented it out."

As he's driving back that way one day not too long after that, he notices that now there are two antennas on the outhouse. So he stops and talks to the people who own it. "Why are there two antennas on that outhouse now?"
