Title: Beatles jokes
Post by: raquelle on November 04, 2008, 01:43:42 AM
Does anybody have any good Beatles jokes?

I have one...

How many Beatles does it take to change a lightbulb?

Four.

John to come up with the lightbulb...
Paul to claim half of the lightbulb...
George to complain that his lightbulbs never get considered...
and Ringo to change the lightbulb.

By the way, you guys, these are just jokes. Let's hope nobody gets offended!

*gasp*  I am so offended!...just kidding...   :P :P :P ;D

I don't know any Beatle jokes so I had to search for them online.  Here's one of my favorites:

Why did the Beatles cross Abbey Road?
To make some really good music, of course.

Uhm, well, I speak a little German. ^^
'Warum' is 'why'...
Beatles.
Niet= not?
'Klavier' in German is 'piano'
Is 'jassen' to play?
Why didn't the Beatles play piano? XD

Oh, foo. I'm no good at this. X3


I found this online a while back:
(http://www.creativetony.com/illustration/illofriday/allyouneedismeat.jpg)
I'm sure it's supposed to be funny, but I only got a little, "Haha! .....I don't get it." out of it, miself. XD

For us 'Paul is Dead' fanatics.
"It must be lonely for Ringo being the only original Beatle alive.
First it was Paul then John and George..."

Some of these that I'm finding are gruesome. ...That last one kinda is, you know.

And, for those of us who understand computer language...

something to do with the "nie" in Macca? Like, "why the beatles dont do something? because Paul cant"?

Once raxo and me had a whole conversation with Beatles jokes (sadly i cant find that thread), but the one I remember is ....

Elvis Pelvis... Paul's B...  ;D ;D ;D Lame, but funny!  :P

It's Dutch by the way, not German.  :P

Klaverjassen is a card game. So, why can't the Beatles play this particular game. Because Paul can't play card, he 'kaart nie(t)'.
Title: Re: Beatles jokes
Post by: Joost on November 10, 2008, 01:04:34 PM
Jokes never work when you have to explain them... :)... But anyway, like Bobber said: Cartney sounds like 'kaart nie', which means something like 'doesn't play cards'.

"It's Dutch by the way, not German"

I know. ^^ The languages seem pretty similar, though, so I thought I'd give it a try. XD So much for that! ;D

Well, to a certain extend... When you speak German, most Dutch people will recognize enough words to more or less understand what you're saying (and vice verse, I guess), but there certainly are a lot of big differences.

I suppose this belongs in jokes. Beatles fan Weird Al did this clip in 1996 for Al-TV, introducing "Beatles Anthology 17":

First there's this, a critical incident in inter-Beatles relations:-

AarhZScyuz0 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AarhZScyuz0)


That sketch, in fact, is the reason Paul kept his distance all those years. Because John had appeared to him in a dream and said "Beware the one-legged pirate". Paul thought he was talking about George.

From the Mixdown website:
Carnival of Light” has not yet appeared on any release, either official or a bootleg recording. In 1996 McCartney tried to release the track on the compilation album The Beatles Anthology 2, but George Harrison voted to reject it. According to McCartney, the reason was that “he didn’t like avant garde music” and referred to avant garde as ‘avant garde a clue’ (“haven’t got a clue”). George Harrison had also created avant-garde music as a solo composer (in 1969 he released an experimental album using the then new Moog synthesizer called Electronic Sound), and dabbled in the avant-garde with a couple of his Beatles compositions.
