He Could Have Ordered String

From OffTheMark

I ordered a mail-order bride.

Unfortunately, I was out when she was delivered.

So, now she's married to my neighbour.

While You Were Sleeping

From Reality Check

A Traditional Family Christmas


It wasn't until that first Christmas with your family
that I realised how we all do it differently,
how every family forges its own traditions, as bright
and distinct as any giant, shining star.

The way you laid out coal sacks instead of stockings;
the recital of a limerick before the opening of each present,
Christopher Lee's heavy metal Christmas album
playing quietly in the background; the pre-breakfast snorkel;

the Dance of the Seven Baubles; the festive epaulettes;
lunch with its ptarmigan fritters in milk sauce,
the suet potatoes, and the sweet and sour popcorn;
the replenishing of glasses with red turkey wine;

sprout-rolling in the park; the posting of a tinsel stick
through Mr Jennings' letterbox; and back for an evening of TV
(some classic episodes of Panorama) and games
(Hoist the Pickle, No Elbows Please!, Speculum) then bed.

The following year you came to my family for Christmas.
You said later that it was weird.

Food Delivery

From Bizarro

From Waynovision

I called my wife and told her that I'll pick up Pizza and Coke on the way back from work.

But it seems she was not happy.

She still regrets letting me name the kids.

Yay, Pizza

From Dilbert

I always get my pizza delivered.

I don't understand why they're putting liver on pizza in the first place.

I'm waiting for some Elvis memorabilia to be delivered, but it's been held up in the depot (in the depoooooot).

Knock Knock Jokes For Cats

From OffTheMark

I just had a delivery guy from DPD knock on my door.

He said "I've got a parcel for your next door neighbour".

I said "You've got the wrong house then mate".

Fast Service

They say a dog can retrieve a tennis ball from over a kilometre away.

That seems a bit far‑fetched to me.
