Apart from the usual academic curriculum, students in tertiary institutions also need some activities that can help them perform better and be happy. Nowadays, being happy entails spending a lot especially when traveling out of town. However, as a student, cheaper options such as making university jokes should be adopted. Within minutes, you will find yourself happy again and ready for your academic work.
Here is a sample joke. Some scientists had an experiment to perform on a dog. They cut the dog's legs one by one until three of its legs were out. Each time they cut one leg and asked the dog to walk about, the dog walks without any aid. The dog was able to walk with three legs (when one leg was removed) and with two legs (when two legs were removed). However, it could not move again after the third one was removed. The scientists came up with this conclusion, "dogs with only one leg will not walk if asked to because they cannot hear well."
"Do you know the longest word in the English dictionary?" A teacher asked this question in her class while preparing her students for the final year exam. One of the students said the answer was the word "SMILES". The teacher questioned him but he defended himself by saying that the mile in the word makes it the longest in the dictionary.
You may also make this joke for the listening pleasure of your friend. In a geography class, a teacher asked a student to locate America on the map. One of them, Maria, got up and pointed correctly. Impressed, the teacher applauded and decided to ask the class another question, "who founded America". To this, the class unanimously answered, "America was founded by Maria".
A driver was caught for driving at top speed. The police man told him he was going to get a ticket and would appear before the court to explain his actions. The man, feeling guilty, tried to plead for mercy but the officer did not grant him pardon. The man was angry and felt like abusing the man but he was afraid of what that would yield. So he asked the man if he would be handed another ticket if he abused him. The officer replied positively. The man asked again if he would get a ticket for thinking wrong about him. This time, the officer said he will not be able to give him a ticket for what he thinks. So the man told the officer that he thinks he is callous and inconsiderate.
You can also say this. When John was young, he always attended weddings with his grandmother. Each time they were on their way back from the wedding, the grandmother would always turn and say to him, "John my son, you know you are the next in line", Ten years later, the grand mum stopped because John would always tell her after a funeral "Grand mum, get prepared because you may be the next in line".
Two drunk men got out of the bar one night to interact. One of them looked up and asked his fellow if the object in the sky was a moon or a sun. The other fellow said he did not know because he just reached the town that afternoon.
Here is another joke. A woman went to see her friend's new baby. On getting there, she inquired about the child's name but the mother shocked her when she said the boy (the baby) had not been very audible anytime she asked him.
