The ultimate in plagiarism! Page 5

He didn't say he was - just the first person to get it out there. That's part of the game after all isn't it?

Coincidentally, an anagram of Lob da man in Sea is too naive to be considered part of the game.

Why is it naive?

That is indeed the £680,000 pound question.

Well not really.

When ze seagulls....follow ze trawler....

For the record I'd like to say I believe an anagram is perfectly acceptable as a joke. As a previous poster said, a joke is largely defined by the people laughing at it. That said, I can't think I've ever laughed at an anagram myself.

I can't be bothered to check all the results of BuryBob's link but I'm assuming for him to post it, it must include the OP's anagram, otherwise it seems a rather pointless post. I'm also baffled by the use of the word "naive".

Keith Chegwin Tweet today: My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We'll see about that.

Isn't that one of Stewart Francis' lines?

It ain't over till the fat BCGer sings (I'm not fat-but the joke wouldn't work if I said 'very slightly overweight in a middle aged kind of way).

With apologies to the New Seekers and Coke:

I'd Like to tell the world some jokes
I've written on my own
In honesty, not all from me
Some may be more a loan (you cheating bastard)

I'd like to say I wrote them all
But some were specially chose
This category, were jokes you see
I'd borrowed from the pro-s (you robbing bastard)

I'd like to say I'd credited
The authors where I can
That's Tarbuck, Vine and half the time
Alan Carr, Chatty Man

(Middle eight)

They're the jokes I hear
Pass them off as my own
I'll Twitter them
I can't see how
My cover will be blown

I'd like to say my puns and gags
Are basically home-grown
Integrity is not in me
As a Google search has shown (you slimy muppet)

Haha!

The dirty bastard!

I just wrote this song, good innit?

:D Oh no, I've been Cheggered!

I would be a bit cautious about putting my name to Bin Laden jokes anyway.

Don't tell him Pike!

I'm trying to learn how to write gags, perhaps you'd rate this for me.

SHE WAS AS STONED AS A MUSLIM ADULTRESS

I would deem it a great honour if someone nicked it.
