"Waiter, will my burger be long?"
"No, sir, it'll be round."

An Irishman complains to his doctor about a pain in his bottom. The doctor begins his examination and notices a £20 note sticking out of the man's arse. He carries on and finds another then another and another until he has a large pile of money in front of him.
"I've added it up," says the doctor and you had exactly £1980 stuffed up your backside!"
"Ah, that'll be it then, doctor," says the Irishman, "I knew I wasn't feeling two grand."

A man asks this dentist what it would cost to remove a tooth. "One hundred pounds," says the dentist.
"That's a lot," says the man, "is there anything you can do to get the price down?"
"Well, if I don't use any anaesthetic that'll bring it down to £50," says the dentist.
"Okay," says the man, "anything else you can do to make it cheaper?"
"If I just used a pair of pliers that would bring it down to £15," says the dentist.
"That's still slightly more than I wanted to pay," says the man.
"Right," says the dentist, "we'll do it without anaesthetic, using the pliers and I'll get one of my students on work experience to do it. That would bring the price down to a fiver."
"Excellent!" says the man.
"Okay," says the dentist as he prepares to make a note of the appointment, "what's your name?"
"Oh, it's not for me," says the man, "It's for my wife."

Three men have been stuck on a desert island for years when one of them finds a magic lamp on the beach. He summons the genie who grants them one wish each. "I'm really missing my family, my loved ones and the wonderful life I enjoyed before, so that's my wish." The genie nods and the man is gone in a flash. The second man wishes for exactly the same thing and disappears immediately. The genie looks at the third man who says, "I'm already feeling lonely and I wish my mates were back here with me."

An Englishman, a Frenchman and a Soviet are in an art gallery looking at a painting of Adam and Eve.
"Look at their calm and reserve," says the Englishman, "they must be English."
"Non," says the Frenchman, "They are so beautiful they must be French."
"Nyet," says the Soviet. "They have no clothes, they have no shelter, they only have one apple between them and yet they're being told they are in Paradise. They must be Russian!"
