Joke: Careful with your cell phone

It’s been a long time since I last cracked a joke here on the blog. So, today I want you to laugh. Read the joke below and check not only your English but also your sense of humor.

Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A cell phone on a bench rings and a man engages the hands free speaker function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to listen.

MAN: ‘Hello

WOMAN: ‘Honey, it’s me. Are you at the club?

MAN: ‘Yes

WOMAN: ‘I am at the mall now and found this beautiful leather coat. It’s only $3,000. Is it OK if I buy it?

MAN: ‘Sure, go ahead if you like it that much.

WOMAN: ‘I also stopped by the Ferrari dealership and saw the new 2010 models. I saw one I really loved.

MAN: ‘How much?

WOMAN: ‘$690,000

MAN: ‘OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.

WOMAN: ‘Great! Oh, and one more thing… the house I wanted last year is back on the market. They’re asking$3,000,000 for it.

MAN: ‘Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $2,500,000. They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra $500,000 if it’s really a pretty good price.

WOMAN: ‘OK, honey. I’ll see you later! I love you so much!

MAN: ‘Bye, sweetie! I love you, too.

The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are staring at him in astonishment, mouths agape.

He turns and asks: ‘Anyone know who this phone belongs to?

If you haven’t got the idea, you can read the same joke in Portuguese reading the post Piada: Cuidado com o seu telefone celular. See ya! Take care!

  1. Olá Denilso!Parabéns pelo blog, é muito bom acompanhá-lo!Outro dia um aluno me perguntou como se diz "estar viajando" em inglês. Não em outra cidade, mas viajando em pensamentos.Alguma idéia?Obrigada! Natasha

  2. To viajando – I'm flying ou I'm high… só consegui pensar nestas, mas têm outras.

  3. Near the end of the joke, wasnt it supposed to read "Anyone *knows* who this phone belongs to?"

  4. If you think grammaticaly ies that would be wrong. But that's the way the joke was advertised on TV, radio and internet. So, the only conclusion is that 'does' is hidden in the sentence and the person said 'know' i. o. 'knows'.

  5. Prezado DenilsonVocê comentou no blog que a TAM nunca lhe ofereceu uma passagem de cortesia. Não sei se você conhece o programa de milhagem da companhia. Quem viaja, acumula pontos e, após um determinado numero é trocado por trechos sem nenhum custo adicional. Vale apena.Isso é apenas uma dica, não sou representante da TAM, nem coisa parecida. Sou apenas um usuário como outro qualquer, mas que utilizo esse programa e estou satisfeitíssimo.
