Pseudonym 7,439 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 Hello all! I was pottering about on Pinterest and came across this which I found pretty amusing, does anyone know any more? 4 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arcadia 18,586 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 You know, I think somebody may have asked that once before, and if there were any, they don't stick in my mind! I think the biggest joke is the legions of Sherlock fans who are willing to wait year after year after year for 3 -- count 'em, THREE -- new episodes. :d 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caya 4,393 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 That took me longer than I'd care to admit to understand, even with your hint - but thanks, I wouldn't have stood a chance otherwise. ^_^ Wordplay and puns are about the most difficult things to understand for a non-native speaker. Cockney rhyming slang is the worst in that regard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carol the Dabbler 14,654 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 NObody understands Cockney rhyming slang -- which is the whole point, I guess. It's sort of a code, known only by the in-crowd. Welcome to the forum, Brandon! Thanks for the joke -- I was beginning to think we'd have to change the name of this thread to "Do you know more than one Sherlock Holmes joke?" 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carol the Dabbler 14,654 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 Actually, I think that's more of a "Funny Sherlock Picture." But hey, it's not like we're exactly swamped with Holmes jokes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pseudonym 7,439 Report post Posted January 20, 2017 Well, there was a 'why did the chicken cross the road' one, but it wasn't as good. Desperate times ;) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are no police like Holmes… one more!!! ... or perhaps (especially in the case of "our" Sherlock), "Be he never so humble, there's no police like Holmes." When last seen, Mrs. Hudson was cross-stitching that on a sampler. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
