How many of these make you laugh, or even induce a mild curve of your lips? Is this the best they've got? Or maybe I'm just a grumpy bleeder...but, come on. 0/10 10 Best Jokes...

I've had funnier endoscopies. This is precisely why I haven't been to a comedy show at the Fringe for 16 years. The audiences are just as rubbish as the alleged comedians.

Their punny type jokes which I don't think are even meant to be funny, are they? You're supposed to groan but admire the cleverness.

A good joke needs setting up really, pretty hard to do that in a one liner.
I dunno, probably too many comedians at Edinburgh, too many cloggers, too many audiences laughing at bad jokes.
I think we're getting too soft on comedians in this country. And if you go to the theatre and watch a play it gets even worse, people laugh at the worst jokes which are not funny by any objective standard... why?
There are some really good comedians about as well, but if the audience is too polite to tell the stinkers; "you're simply not good enough mate", you know what you end up with? The BBC commissioning 'Russell Howard's Good News' for its 11th series.

Yeah, lame as feck.
But watch an episode of Noel Edmonds' latest show and then re-read them. You'll laugh your head off!

If those are the best, I REALLY don't want to hear the worst! There you go. I just made a joke that is funnier than anything presented at the Edinburgh Fringe.
