Old People Jokes

Laughter is the Shortest Distance between Friends

Instead of calling this Old People Jokes, I considered Old Age Jokes. I could just as easily have called it, Laughter Is the Best Medicine, as my Grandfather used to say. And then I thought Old People Joke might capture the essence of it better, because – as my wise old brother says, “Old age isn’t for sissies” … whether you’re 95 or 59.

Indeed, one of the best ways to age well is to not take yourself seriously. Aging well might just come down to aging gracefully with a smile on your face.

Like one of my favorite old age jokes an old Jewish friend tells: Old Abe is out for a walk when he succumbs to all the aches and pains his poor old body has accumulated over the years. He pauses to catch his breath and work on the kink in his back, the Charley horse in his leg and his sore bunions. He begins muttering to himself about how many aches and pains he has. Suddenly, the frustration with his ailments gets too much for him and he looks heavenward, saying aloud, “God, why me?!” A moment later, old Abe hears a deep, rumbling voice like the distant thunder answer, “So why not you?!

Anyway, I enjoy a good laugh, or at least a nice smile. Laughing and/or smiling more is a wonderful way to lift not only our own spirits, but the spirits of others. So from time to time, I’ll share some Old Age Jokes. And if you enjoy laughter, please return periodically. If/when you hear any good (clean) jokes – even if they aren’t what you’d call Old People Jokes, please share them here, too – OK?!

Old Men & Viagra

My dear old (90 y.o.) Mother meets with a group of her “girl” friends every Wednesday afternoon to chat over coffee. Well, some years back, when Viagra first became popular, she & her friends got to talking and chuckling about it. One 80-year lady with a dry sense of humor piped up and said, You know, it seems to me that giving an elderly man Viagra is somewhat akin to erecting a new flag pole atop a condemned building! At which point Mom and the others almost died laughing. :)
