When camping recently with two friends and our four 12-year old sons, we found ourselves around a campfire, enjoying some smores, and sharing some laughs. But as I struggled to think of age-appropriate jokes, I was frustrated to realize how few I could recall. It seems my joke catalog has thinned, and the few that came to mind would have gotten me in trouble with their moms had I shared them with our boys.
Then I thought of a few…
What’s easier to load, a truckload of crates, or a truckload of dead babies?
Dead babies, you can use a pitchfork.
What do you call a guy with no arms and no legs in the middle of the ocean?

In each case, I knew I was remembering only a couple of what were many jokes of the same theme, and I knew I could count on the fact that I’d have an easy time finding them all online. And so I did. Enjoy, and don’t blame me if you’re easily offended. They are tasteless jokes, but I find them funny.
