Nice both jokes, but only you failed you in the second joke, because I don't find sense in a stamp that goes around of the word and always stays in one place.


I believe that in that jokes the answer should to be a women.

Yes, I agree with it, but I don't find sense in the word, perhaps if the words is other word then it'll turn sound better.

I hope your commentaries.

Bob, tendrías que cambiar el título del hilo. Vosotros no distinguís entre "chistes" y "bromas", todo es "joke".

Un chiste es como un cuento pequeñito que hace gracia.

Una broma es como una burla o un acto divertido (a veces). Por ejemplo, un amigo te deja un cubo de agua encima de la puerta entreabierta para que te caiga encima cuando empujes la puerta para entrar. Eso es una broma (a veces son de mal gusto...)

Y ahora un chiste:

Cómo mantener a un tonto ocupado

I guess the stamp stays in one place in that it remains glued onto a letter but the letter goes around the world with the stamp in it. But I wonder why you said women should be the answer to those jokes.

fruit flies are small insects (gnats) that like fruits including bananas. Its a play on words and their meanings.

I believe that when one is drunk one can either go bananas or become a banana.

This is a good joke in Spanish because it's a play on words. It doesn't translate into English (as a joke, that is).
Por lo general, no traducen al inglés los juegos de palabras sin perder el sentido.

Buscas un diccionario meyor. Tacky significa pegajoso o barniz que no había secado todavía.
