Silly joke of the day I heard a really cheesy joke at work earlier, but it made my evening so I thought I'd share it with you all: Did you hear about the latest catastrophe at sea? The red ship crashed into the blue ship and everyone was marooned! Hahaha! If you don't get it, it's because when you mix red and blue you get purple and maroon is sort of a reddish purple color. But "to be marooned" is to be abandoned on a deserted island. So it is a "play on words" thus giving the joke.

Here's another one we got the other day though. This is a Chemistry joke. The neutron walks into a bar and says, "Give me a whisky." The bartender looks at him and says, "for you, no charge!"

Yes, "it made my evening" means exactly what Hadiza said. I was grading the same test question over and over and was thoroughly bored but then one kid put this joke on the test with his response and I was able to laugh for the first and only time that evening. Thus it made my evening--it was the only bright spot in an otherwise dreary time.

Hahaha! Ah, dry humour :') Good point Yousef (y) Terry, when you say "it made my evening" it normally means that what you're talking about has been the best/funniest/most interesting thing that has happened to you that evening. For example, if you hear a funny joke, or a friend visits you, or something really good happens. Hope that helps :)
