A) How do you know when an elephant is sleeping in your bed?

B) I don't know.

A) Your nose is touching your ceiling.

Please tell me what's the supposedly funny point of this elephant joke?

Imagine an elephant is hiding in your bed under the covers.

You don't notice until you climb on top and realise that your nose is touching the ceiling. It's funny because you haven't noticed a great enormous elephant in your bed.

Question 1 of 4

Yep, you're right! Big Smile [:D]

Now Question 2 of 4

How would you put an elephant in the refrigerator?

Tizry Syahnon  +  276879 Fri, 06 Oct 06 11:56 AM

i think it would be the same answer, but this time you need to kick the elephant in the butt because of his negligence... hahaha.

Take the giraffe out and put the elephant in.

oh dear.. i thought it was a huge refrigerator. you couldn't put that giraffe in it at the first place, if it wasn't huge enough, in a way.

hahaha.. so funny!

" ) ..arguing only for the sake of fun, though!
