IF: HOMAGE …to oranges and laughter
April 1, 2008 at 10:37 am | Posted in IF, illustration friday, Uncategorized | 12 CommentsTags: bananas, IF, illustration friday, Knock Knock jokes, laughter, monkeys, oranges
Today, I am listening to the Beastie Boys and Dr. Hook, if that tells you anything about my mood. 🙂 So, for Illustration Friday’s HOMAGE, it is only suiting to pay tribute to the most famous KNOCK KNOCK JOKE of all time. Happy day!
Go tell some knock-knock jokes to a first grader today. Their maniacal laughter at the punchline will make your day. At least the first 7 times they tell the same one. Seven is the limit. Then it’s time for something–anything–else. 🙂
For more laughter, check this out. Illustrators should especially love it. The characters are fabulous. http://kateharding.net/2008/03/31/best-thing-ever/

well there are no 1st graders handy but your illustration caused me to spontaneously shout “orange you glad…” at the monitor and giggle uncontrollably so I’d say this one is a total success. And Beastie Boys sounds like a good idea today. Thanks for the laughs, love the illo!

Banana who? That joke is a classic. I remember this joke spiraling into an endless loop of banana. And you are so right Teri, I just tried it out, and seven times is the banana limit.
