Less than tasteful banking crisis jokes
 

The news radio show I am listening to at the moment started a 'text in' feature about an hour ago asking for comedy relief about the banking crisis. It turned into one (or so) liners about bank closures. A lot of this is off the back of the Iceland thing today.

Some I liked so far are:

The Japanese Origami bank has folded.

Funds at the Bank Of The Sahara have dried up.

The Ninja Bank Is, as always, in the black.

The Karaoke Bank is going for a song.


Yes, I am easily amused by play on word type jokes.

Anybody else have any credit crunch related comic relief?

heh, these are kinda old, but still good :thumbsup

Well, it was my first time hearing them.

Never heard them either - but they are funny :)

This just in....the Bonsai Bank is cutting branches.

LOL Those are good ones... remember that the guys at the stock market don't care if YOU die if they can make a buck.
