"
Comedian" Lorna Rose Treen is this year’s recipient of the Funniest Joke
at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, making her only the second woman to win in
the award’s 14-year history.:
Every year, the public votes on a shortlist of one-liners heard at the Scottish
arts festival as selected by a panel of comedy judges.
Treen won the annual Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe prize with her one-
liner: “I started dating a zookeeper, but it turned out he was a cheetah.”
Tragic, due to the fear of blame today's comedians are being strangled and are just not funny save a few of the big names. Its a dark time for comedy
Here is the top 10 from 2010:
I've just been on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday. I'll tell you what, never again.
I'm currently dating a couple of anorexics. Two birds, one stone.
I picked up a hitchhiker. You gotta when you hit them.
I bought one of those anti-bullying wristbands when they first came out. I say 'bought' - I actually stole it off a short, fat ginger kid.
As a kid I was made to walk the plank. We couldn't afford a dog.
Being an England supporter is like being the over-optimistic parents of the fat kid on sports day.
What do you call a kid with no arms and an eyepatch? Names.
Dave drowned. So at the funeral we got him a wreath in the shape of a lifebelt. Well, it's what he would have wanted.
For Vanessa Feltz, life is like a box of chocolates - empty.
Wooden spoons are great. You can either use them to prepare food, or if you can't be bothered with that, just write a number on one and walk into a pub.
