Superhero jokes

Most people probably don't know this, because there hasn't been much about it in the media, but the latest Marvel movie, 'Avengers: Endgame', was released this week. #Sarcasm

So this week the Charles Fudgemuffin blog follows the superhero theme, and features a selection of superhero themed jokes...

Iron Man and the Silver Surfer are alloys.

1) If the Silver Surfer and Iron Man teamed up, they'd be alloys.


2) Batman and Robin are about to go out to fight crime one night, but unfortunately the Batmobile won't start. Batman says, "Robin, check the battery." Robin replies, "What's a tery?"


3) In the movies, heroes always save the world just in the nick of time. If I was a villain, all my timers would activate when they reached 5, not 0.

15 Alan Partridge quotes

The latest Alan Partridge series, 'This Time', sadly recently came to an end, so in honour of Norfolk's top entertainer, this week's blog post features a selection of Alan Partridge quotes...

I'm afraid that for copyright reasons, I don't have a photo of
Alan Partridge. So instead, here's a photo of a partridge bird!

1) Discussing Adam and Eve...

"I think I’d be more preoccupied by the fact I was encountering a talking snake. I think whether I wanted an apple or not would be a side issue."



2) "Let me tell you something about the Titanic. People forget that on the Titanic’s maiden voyage there were over 1,000 miles of uneventful, very pleasurable cruising before it hit the iceberg."



3) "As a parent, I didn't even hit my own kids. My wife hit them - ex-wife - but I didn't, and now she's their favourite! Riddle me that one!"

Cats and dogs (part 2)

A full day in honour of me! Wow!

This week saw the celebration of National Pet Day on April 11th, so in honor of our pets, here are a few more observations about cats and dogs.

1) If your house was on fire your dog would bark to wake you up to let you know of the danger. Your cat would quietly sneak out of the house.


2) Cats probably wonder why bottles of fizzy drinks are so angry whenever they're opened.


3) If you're over 30, you're older than every single cat and dog in the world.

April Fools Day pranks (2019 edition)

Last week saw another April Fools Day come and go, so as has become something of a tradition on the Charles Fudgemuffin blog, this week's blog post features a round-up of various April Fools Day pranks from various companies, people and organisations.

However, to test your powers at detecting prankery, one of the following 'pranks' is actually real and not a prank at all! It should be fairy obvious, but if you can't work it out, the answer is revealed at the bottom of today's blog post...

1) McDonalds Pickle Burger

I'm Gherkin It

Personally, I find the gherkins in Big Macs absolutely disgusting, but apparently there are some people who love them, so they must have been really excited when McDonalds Australia posted the following announcement on their instagram page:

"Pickle lovers, it’s the news you’ve all been waiting for. We’re super stoked* to announce the launch of our brand new McPickle Burger. It’s time to tuck into juicy, flavoursome pickles layered between melted cheese, ketchup sauce and toasted sesame seed buns. It’s sure to be a treat for all your senses."

* 'Stoked' is an Australian word for excited.

The announcement was accompanied by an image of a Big Mac style burger filled with gherkins instead of burgers!

However, gherkin lovers hopes were dashed when they discovered that sadly for them, it was an April McFool!
