How about a few Christmas jokes?

I still remember one of the best lectures by one of my favourite teachers at university. He was called Christopher Pratt and he was my first year English teacher. His lecture was called "The linguistics of laughter" although originally he called it "To pee or not to pee". The Dean was really upset, as you can imagine, and he had to change the name for a more formal and academic title. I spent the two happiest hours ever at this lecture. The jokes were hilarious and the analysis, academic and technical.

Whoever said the English had a terrible sense of homour?

To prove you wrong I have included a short list of one-liners about Christmas. Hope you enjoy them.
