Shaker Jokes

  • Funny Jokes

    All members of Mensa have I.Q.s of at least 140.
    At one Mensa convention, several members at a local cafe noticed the shaker with an S on top, for salt, contained pepper and their pepper shaker, with a P on top, was full of salt. How could they swap the contents of the bottles without spilling anything and using only the implements at hand? Clearly, here was the marvellous Mensa mystery!
    They presented ideas, debated them, and finally came up with what they felt was a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw, and an empty saucer.
    They called the blonde waitress over to dazzle her with their solution.
    "Ma'am," they said, "we couldn't help but notice that the pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker contains..."
    "Oh, sorry!" interrupted the blonde waitress. "Here," and she unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them.

    On their anniversary night, the blonde husband sat his wife down in the bedroom with her favorite magazine, turned on the soft reading lamp, slipped off her shoes, patted and propped her feet and announced that he was preparing dinner all by himself.
    "How romantic!" she thought.
    Two-and-a-half hours later, she was still waiting for dinner to be served. She tiptoed to the kitchen and found it a colossal mess.
    Her harried blond husband, removing something indescribable from the smoking oven, saw her in the doorway.
    "Almost ready!" he vowed. "Sorry it took me so long but I had to refill the pepper shaker."
    "Why, honey, how long could that have taken you?"
    "More than an hour, I reckon. Wasn't easy stuffing' it through those dumb little holes."

    Mum: Haven't you finished filling the salt shaker yet?
    Son: Not yet. It's really hard to get the salt through all those little holes!
