Jokes for Vacation Show #5
Posted by Lex Friedman on Apr 10, 2009 |
Today marks 30 shows’ worth of jokes I’ve written for Jimmy Fallon as part of this open application to get a job writing for his Late Night show. So far, I’ve no idea whether Jimmy’s seen it, liked it, or attempted to hire me and not left a voicemail. If you or someone you know is Jimmy Fallon — call me.
Jimmy’s last day of his current vacation is tonight, so here are some jokes he won’t use since he’s still in reruns today:
- Today is Good Friday. Unless you’re Jewish, in which case today is Constipated From Matzah Friday.
- Lance Armstrong says French authorities may not let him race in the Tour de France this year, because he violated drug test rules by taking a shower before providing samples. Man, not getting to race seems harsh, though, right? It’s like getting kicked in the ball.
Hey Lex,I think there’s another joke in there about the French objecting to someone taking a shower…if you do come up with one, I just want partial writing credit…thanks in advance.
Keep it up Lex, I like the jokes, good luck getting that gig from Jimmy.
