The chill of winter is upon us, and with it comes the perfect excuse to warm up our sense of humor with some cold-weather jokes. Here are a few to get you started:
Why was the snowman sad? He was having a meltdown. This joke plays on the double meaning of “meltdown,” referencing both the emotional state of sadness and the physical process of snow melting due to rising temperatures.
What did the frost say to the window? “You’re always so glazed over.” This joke uses wordplay, with “glazed over” having a double meaning of both the physical state of being covered in a layer of frost and the idiomatic expression for being bored or disinterested.
Why did the skier bring a ladder to the mountain? He wanted to take his skiing to the next level. This joke is a play on words, using “next level” both in the literal sense of ascending higher and in the idiomatic sense of improving or advancing in something.
What do you call a group of cows taking a winter vacation? A moo-ntain retreat. This joke plays on the word “mountain” by incorporating “moo,” the sound cows make, to create a pun on the concept of a mountain retreat.
Why did the hot chocolate go to therapy? It was feeling a little stirred up. This joke uses the phrase “stirred up,” which is a common idiomatic expression for being upset or agitated, and applies it to hot chocolate, which is literally stirred when prepared.
These jokes are sure to add a bit of warmth to your day, even on the chilliest of winter mornings. Humor, after all, is the best way to thaw a frozen sense of humor.
