"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up,said a sarcastic teacher.
After a long silence, one student rose to her feet.

Now then young lady, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" inquired the teacher with a sneer.

Well, actually I don't," said the girl, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself."

As I got off the elevator, the operator said, Have a good day, son. I said, Dont call me son. Youre not my dad.
He replied, Maybe not but I did bring you up.
I bought a used dictionary at a local flea market. I got it cheap because someone had torn out both the first few and last few pages from the book.
Trying to actually use the dictionary was difficult, however: it only went from bad to worse.
Even though I drink brake fluid all the time, Im not addicted.

So I packed my things and right.
I'm proud of my 13 yo daughter. I told her to load and run the dishwasher.
She said the dishwasher can't run... it's got no legs!

I'm glad to see my teaching has not been wasted.

I went to a store where they use explosives to create jewelry.
As I entered there was a loud "bang". It made my earring.
I told my wife I had a joke about construction but I'm still working on it
So last night at dinner my kid asked me why I always have a joke ready for every situation. I told him it was just part of my foundation. He groaned. My wife put her head in her hands. I considered it a success.

But honestly it got me thinking about all the construction puns out there just waiting to be built upon. Like, I tried to come up with a joke about concrete but it kept hardening back to the same punchline. I thought about roofing jokes but they all go over people's heads. Even my jokes about elevators have their ups and downs.

My personal favorite to tell at family gatherings: I asked my brotherinlaw what his favorite part of being a contractor was. He said the money. I said mine was all the groundbreaking work.

He has not invited me to a cookout since 2019 and I respect that boundary while also refusing to change my behavior in any way whatsoever.

If you have a good construction pun I would love to hear it. I am always looking to add more material. My family is begging me not to but their opinion was not solicited and will not be considered.

Drop your best below.

I was lured into entering a limbo competition with the promise that it would be the 11th most fun thing Id do that night.
I ended up enjoying it much more than I expected, but only because they set the bar so low.
