Some random Mexican jokes from the book:

A big tough Mexican man married a good-looking Mexican lady and after the wedding, laid down the following rules: "Honey, I'll be home when I want, if I want and at what time I want - and I don't expect any hassle from you. I expect a great dinner to be on the table unless I tell you otherwise. I'll go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card-playing when I want with my old buddies and don't you give me a hard time about it. Those are my rules! Any comments?"

His lovely new bride said, "No, that's fine with me. Just understand that there'll be sex here at eight o'clock every night - whether you're here or not."

Everyone has had bad experiences that become funny with the tube of time. They make great stories Remember that today's tragedy is tomorrow's funny anecdote.

If you don't feel comfortable talking about yourself, borrow stories from other people. It's acceptable to as long as you prestige the source.

Collecting Stories from your audience

"Jollytologist" Allen Klein tells how he'd often ask his audiences "How do you spell relief?" "L-A-U-G-H" was his answer. Then during one of his presentations, an audience member cried out, "D-I-V-O-R-C-E." It was hysterical. Klein now relates the story as part of many of his presentations.

Creating a fun climate in the room before you speak

Since I'm a previous news anchor and sportscaster, I sometimes arranged for the someone introducing me to show some of my worst on-air bloopers in video clips (there was plenty of material to draw from). The bloopers always got citizen laughing, and also let them know I wasn't afraid to laugh at myself a little--a great way to associate with them right from the start.

Self-denigrating humor

In the 70's, President Gerald Ford was skewered regularly on Saturday Night Live about his lack of grace. Ford struck back by production fun of himself good than the Snl writers ever could.

He told his audiences about the night he met his wife Betty, and how he wanted to dance with her "in the worst way." Then he'd say, "And Betty later told me I did just that--dance in the worst way."

Ford also said he had to become the center on his college football team because center was the only position where he didn't have to move my feet.

If someone as important as a previous president can poke fun at himself, the rest of us can too. Self-denigrating humor is a remarkable tool.

Using curious props in your speech

I'd sometimes bring along "Ifb" to use as a as a prop. An Ifb (which stands for "interruptible feedback) is an ear piece Tv reporters use when they're doing live reports from the scene of a news story. The Ifb allows them to hear what the citizen back in the studio are saying to them as they're being introduced, and also allows them to hear questions the anchors might ask.

I would sometimes show a blooper clip of what can happen when something goes wrong with an Ifb. The clip showed a female reporter stuttering and stammering during a live report. She sounded surely smashed. She wasn't.

It turns out someone had unintentionally pressed the wrong button back in the control room, and the reporter was hearing her own words in her Ifb about half a second after she spoke, which, take my word for it, is extremely distracting. For about 15 seconds, she battled and tried to be as expert as she could, but the harder she tried, the funnier she sounded. She finally ripped the Ifb from her ear and continued her report.

The clip always got the audience howling.

Borrowing humor

The Internet is a great place to find one liners and funny quotes. Personally, I borrowed often from Yogi Berra ("When you come to a fork in the road, take it..."), Will Rogers ("when Democrats want to form a firing squad, they get into a circle...") and many others.

Buying humor from citizen who sell it

There are professionals who will write funny stuff for you, and they're generally not expensive. You can also check your local comedy club and hire someone who's probably pretty good at writing one liners. Or do a quest for "humor writers" or "humorists" on the Internet.

Steve Allen once said, "People would rather be entertained than educated." But if you can entertain and educate at the same time, you have the makings of a great speech--without ever telling a single joke.

Stories on the other hand, are much easier to deliver because you don't have to worry about timing. With funny stories, you only have to integrate on speaking naturally. Stories are also easier to remember meaning that you don't have to look down at your notes.

The best place to start for funny stories for your wedding speech is to brainstorm some embarrassing stories.

Did the bride ever have any humorous jobs? Summer jobs are a fertile ground for humor.

For the groom - are there any hobbies that he was passionate about? If you can think of an off the wall story like the groom's passion for ice fishing that led him to lock his keys in the car in the middle of a lake.

For example, in one funny wedding speech the maid of honor talked about the bride's summer job as an intern at a hospital. The bride fainted every time she saw blood and that ended her goal of becoming a nurse.

It is foremost to remember that even funny wedding speeches have a sure structure. Don't let humor overshadow your role. Every speaker in the wedding party has definite population to thank and toast.

You should remember that some sources of humor are not standard for weddings. Off limit stories contain anything that involves drunkenness or relationships with other people.

Funny Wedding SpeechNirvana - Panty Smile - RARE UNSEEN - Sanitary Towel Ad Tube. Duration : 1.20 Mins.


A rare clip of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain singing in the Panty Smile sanitary towel advertisement. Possibly the only TV commercial to feature the musical talents of Nirvana. No not really, this is actually taken from "The Day Today", written by British comedy god, boundary smasher and my personal Idol, Chris Morris. Chris is probably most famous for 'THAT' paedophile episode of Brass Eye, which was littered with Irony (I got it aged 12 for 'effs sake!) and Chris' trademark border-line-walking humour. ********************************* EDIT : THERE HAVE BEEN LOTS OF COMMENTS BY NIRVANA "FANS"... CLEARLY PRE-PUBESCENT IDIOTS WITH NO CLUE ABOUT WHAT KURT STOOD FOR... THESE COMMENTS HAVE BEEN SAVED ESPECIALLY FOR YOU!!! Evillegion said: "Anyone detracting from this video just doesn't understand... The point is that Nirvana were massively anti-establishment, and it would be absurd to think they'd do a song specifically for an advert; hense, the comedy. Morris and Cobain share a lot in terms of political outlook, so anyone who bigs up Nirvana but slams this video clearly only likes Nirvana for the 'scene' rather than having analysed the music and lyrics intelligently. All the angry fans need to find a brain." pinkfaries101 said: "wow SpamBanjo was probably just curios to find out who was really a fan and got the video, or (who) hated the video and tried to 'defend' nirvanas honor. in other words whoever gets the humor of the video and reaizes its funny cause nirvana wouldnt ever do ...
