Weddings are always wonderful occasions where friends and family come together and celebrate the love between two people.
They’re memorable and magical in equal measure, filled with smiles and laughter from start to finish, and one of the most interesting and emotional moments of any wedding is when families or friends of the happy couple stand up to deliver their speeches.
Well, one grandma wanted everyone to remember her wedding speech, so she decided to entertain the audience with a very naughty joke!
They say that any good speech needs to be funny.
Humor is a great way to break the ice with your audience and make them interested in whatever else you have to say.
That must have been on this grandma’s mind as she announced to the assembled crowd at her granddaughter’s wedding that she was about to tell them “a little story”.
Immediately after the grandma started her speech, the audience started to laugh, and one of the bridesmaids, who we can see in the bottom right corner of the frame, was also giggling along.
Clearly, this old lady must have a bit of a reputation for her ‘funny stories’, and everyone was getting ready to see what she’d got in store for them this time.
The story began:
You see, this lady was badly in need of a husband, so she thought ‘I’ll put an ad in the paper’…
After quickly pointing out that the ‘bride’ in her story wasn’t her granddaughter, the funny 84-year-old lady carried on.
And she put the ad in the paper. And it said, ‘Wanted: A husband. He must not beat me. He must not chase after me when I go about with my friends, but he must be good in bed!
The old lady hammered the table as she said that last part, delivering the start of her joke with such enthusiasm that many members of the audience were already laughing!
She does such a good job of putting feeling and emotion into her story, you can’t help but watch along and listen to see how it ends!
The story goes on:
The next day she hears a ring and goes out. And she sees a man sitting in a wheelchair. And she looks at him and she thought there must have been an accident down the road. And she said “You’ve got no arms and no legs, what are you sitting here for?” And he said “You’re the lady who put the ad in the paper, and I’ve come to apply for the position!”
Now, we get to the main ‘punchline’ part of the joke, and the audience is laughing along as the old lady delivers the final lines.
She said “But you’ve got no arms!” And he said “Well I can’t beat you, can I?” She said “But you’ve got no legs!” And he said “Well I can’t chase after you when you go out, can I?” And then the tears rolled down her cheeks and she said “I wanted somebody that was good in bed!” And with a smirk on his face and a big grin he said “Rang the doorbell, didn’t I?”
The crowd erupts in cheers and laughter at this final line, and the old lady grins happily out at the crowd, so proud of herself and her hilarious dirty joke. Watch it unfold for yourself in the funny clip below.
