(Humor at Sea) ni
Dodong Marino,
MV Buenavista

PARI

Parishioner: Padre may nakasampay na duster, bra at T-back sa kumbento, may asawa na ba kayo?
Pari: Hay... kung aasa ako sa koleksiyon ninyo walang mangyayari sa akin. Kaya tumanggap na lang ako ng labada.

ANG BANIG
Phong: Bili na kayo ng banig!
Phing:  Ano ba ‘yan, single o double?
Phong: Single ho, pero may double din.
Phing:   Sana family size, sampu kasi kami eh!
Phong:   Puweding pampamilya, 
Phing: Kasya kayong lahat dito, basta tatayo lang kayong matutulog.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Narrator:  Mayroong isang bata nag-nanakaw ng mangga sa isang bakuran. Tamang-tama dumaan ang isang pari, kaya kitang-kita niya ang bata sa ginagawa niya.
Pari: (tinawag ng pari ang bata.) Psst, halika ka nga.
Bata: (takot na takot) Hindi na po ako uulit, peks man. Maawa kayo sa akin. Huwag po ninyo ako isusumbong.
Pari: (pabulong) Huwag kang maingay. Ilan ba ang nakuha mo? Sumama ka sa akin. Akin ang bagoong!
Bata: Ha?


AKALA KO IKAW
Wife:  Hon, pinatungan ako ng magnanakaw kagabi.
Husband:  Bakit hindi ka sumigaw?
Wife:  Kala ko nga ikaw yun, pero nuong maka-dalawa siya, alam ko agad na hindi ikaw.
 

PAGTATANIM
Titser:  Ang aralin natin ngayon ay tungkol sa pagtatanim. Children, nagdala ba kayo ng buto?
Pong:  Yes, Ma’am. Heto ang dala ko, bigay ng nanay ko, buto ng talong.
Phing:  Ako ma’am, buto ng mangga.
Titser:  Ikaw, Loloy, ano ang dala mong buto?
Loloy:  Ma’am, buto po ng manok.

ERAP
ERAP: Please give this check to DSWD. That’s for my charitable donation.
SECRETARY: Sir. you haven’t signed it.
ERAP: I purposely did it because I want to be anonymous.

STUDENTS
Teacher: We are the descendants of Adam and Eve.
Student: That’s not true ma’am. My father said we are the descendants of apes.
Teacher: We are not talking about your family.

THE MANAGER
The manager and his secretary went to a hotel. When they approached the bed, the manager asked his secretary. 
Manager: How do you want me to treat you, as a wife or as a secretary? 
Secretary: As your wife.
Manager: Good night!

TAKIP SA MUKHA

Boy: Pareng Noy, bakit ba ang mga doktor ay may takip sa mukha kapag sila ay may inooperahan?
Noy: Kasi, kung mamatay man ang pasyente ay hindi sila makilala
 
 
 

TREE
Anak: Tay, anong English ng kahoy?
Tatay: Wood
Anak: Tay, ang sabi ng titser namin tree.
Tatay: Ah.... yan kung tatlong piraso.
 
 

‘Telling a lie is a FAULT for a boy, an ART for a lover, an ACCOMPLISHMENT for a bachelor and a MATTER OF SURVIVAL for a married men.’

ADAM & EVE
One day in the garden of Eden:
Eve:  Adam, do you really love me?
Adam:  Not really.
Eve:  Then why did you make love to me?
Adam:  Hellooo, as if i had a choice nohhhh!

ANG PROBINSIYANO

Isang probinsiyano ang pumunta sa siyudad at nag check-in sa hotel. 
Probinsiyano: Huwag mo akong lokohin totoy. mahal ang binayad ko para sa kwarto ko tapos dalhin mo ako sa isang maliit na kwarto na walang bintana. 
Bellboy: Sir, elevator po ito! 
 
 
 
 

SA MOTEL DIN
Anak:  Nay, bakit Victoria ang pangalan ni ate?
Ina:  Kasi sa motel siya namin ginawa.

Ina:  Sa motel din.
Anak:  Eh, ako?
Ina:  Ay naku Sarao matulog ka na.

MGA DRIVERS
Driver 1: Pare, alam mo bang dalawampu’t limang taon na akong nagmamaneho pero ni minsa’y hindi pa ako nasira sa mga pasahero ko!
Driver 2: Talaga, pero wala ‘yan sa akin, ako magtatatlumpung taon na sa pagmamaneho ay ni isang pasahero ay walang nagrereklamo sa akin!
Driver 1: Kahit, isa wala? Ano bang minamaheho mo?
Driver 2: Karo ng patay!
Driver 1: Ngee!!!!
