As a kid, I always remember my Grandmother telling a joke that made all the adults laugh. My kid brain soaked it up word for word and told all my friends. They all agreed it wasn’t funny at all. Some even asked me if I got it right? Left out something? Poof outta my mind, but not my memory apparently.
One day (20’s) I was driving with friends and somebody said something about a frog, and the punchline came screeching to mind. I died laughing for no apparent reason. Everyone was like haha _____ has the giggles! Ya can barely keep it on the road. I just had to tell everyone the joke I heard when I was 7-8…
A woman is depressed over loss of her husband that previous year. Concerned friends had tried everything to help her through. Eventually, a friend thought a pet might help her get through it better, so she headed to the pet store; where a sales lady was eager to help.
Lady: How about a dog?
Woman: No, too big
Ribbit
Lady: How about a cat, they’re smaller?
Friend: No, they shed
Ribbit
Lady: A bird perhaps?
Each time she passes, a frog excitedly hopped in its cage and would Ribbit.
Lady: How about a fish then?
Woman: No
Ribbit Ribbit
Having gone through the entire store, the only thing left was that frog. The frustrated woman says, I promised to get something.
Lady: This frog REALLY seems to like you. See
Hop Hop Ribbit Ribbit Ribbit
Lady: I guess a frog is easy, sure
The sales lady puts the frog in a box and off she goes. On her way home, she hears the ribbits and box shaking, so she decides to take a gander at her new pet. She opens the lid, and the frog hops on her an gives her a kiss. Immediately the frog turns into a gorgeous prince, and guess what she turns into?
A hotel!
