Q: What can you catch but not throw?

" H. ^) C; s9 P, K) r/ NExplanation: Are you familiar with the expression, to catch a cold? when you catch a cold you get a cold (runny nose, sneezing, maybe coughing, …) from someone else. Cold sometimes means the opposite of hot but in this joke it refers to getting sick.6 L1 }0 b" ]0 ?' e% P

Normally when you catch something, like a ball or a frisbee, you can throw it back to someone. You can catch a cold but you cannot throw it… although you can pass a cold along to someone else. So, if you are sick, if you have a cold, please take care of yourself so you do not pass it on to someone else.4 `0 J: k; X* J3 b" x; t3 y- v

This joke is funny because it plays with the word catch (catch a ball) and the phrase catch a cold. Stay healthy! |
