I'm ruined

    There was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After many years he finds a theatre where they are prepared to give him a chance to shine again.

    The director says, "This is the most important part, and it has only one line. You walk on to the stage at the opening carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, sniff the rose deeply and then say the line 'Ah, the sweet aroma of my mistress.'"

    The actor is thrilled. All day long before the play, he's practicing his line over and over again. Finally, the time comes. The curtain goes up, the actor walks onto the stage, and with great passion delivers the line, "Ah, the sweet aroma of my mistress."

    The theatre erupts. The audience is screaming with laughter, but the director is steaming!

    "You bloody fool!" he cries. "You have ruined me!"

    The actor is bewildered, "What happened, did I forget my line?"

    "No!" screams the director. "You forgot the rose!"

    it seems to me that everyone says all these jokes on this are funny, but they are not. if one of my friends told me that joke do you know what i'd tell him? "shut up ye dope" thats what i'd tell him.

    Please feel free to post some jokes of your own if you find that we are not providing a standard of humour sufficient to entertain you.

    If they're not good jokes we won't even slag them off, as per Charter, which you might read before posting again.
