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.

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.

I don't think agujero is the best word for a hole in the ground.
I would use hueco, zanja, foso, hoyo.
Others may correct me, but I'm almost sure that an agujero
is a pin hole.

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
