Artichokes.

Okay, so there was this dude, right? He wanted to kill his wife, but he didn't know how to go about it. So he went to his local bar and asked the bartender who to go to with dirty deeds. The tender points to some sketchy guy in the corner and says, "That's Artie. He'll knock off your wife for a dollar." Thrilled, the dude approached him, paid him up front and arranged everything, told him where to go and stuff. So the next day, our anti-hero, Artie came in through the backdoor using a spare key. He went into the bedroom and stranged the dude's wife. But before he could escape, the wife's lover comes out of the bathroom and spots him. Artie chokes him too. Then, he's about to leave when the son comes home early from work. Sadly, he gets strangled as well.

So Artie's on his way out, but one of the neighbors heard the commotion and called the cops. Artie gets caught outside and is arrested. The newspaper headlines the next day read, "Arti chokes three for a dollar".

I know, way too much build-up for way too little payoff.

Okay, I did chuckle... I saw the punchline coming before I got to the end... but I did chuckle. Thanks for posting!

Thanks. Seriously, when my friend told me this as the only clean joke in his arsenal, I slapped him upside his head and told him to go back to his filthy, perverted jokes. Then he told me one that involved getting an abortion and a tomato confused, and that redeemed him. Don't worry, it's really gross and I won't post it here.

Unless you want me to.

Two artichokes are crossing the road and one of 'em gets hit by a bus. He is rushed off to the E.R. His friend is waiting for him nervously in the waiting room. The doctor comes out with terrible news. " He will live but he will remain a vegetable".

Chef, too funny! My dad was like that. He either knew really raunchy jokes or otherwise really bad ones... :)
