When i clicked on this teaser nothing came up and so I thought someone had somewho gotten away with putting nothing up. And yes, it's a joke remake. But hey, it's a good joke. |

| I'm sorry to have to sound so negative, but I was hoping this would have been a brain teaser and NOT a joke. Perhaps the Webmaster could add a Joke Forum to this Website. Clearly this was an 'old' joke...I'm waiting for a 'chicken crossing the road' joke to come by very soon....  |

how do you get four elephants into a volkwagen beetle? two in the front and two in the back.
how do you know that the elephants are in the movies?
the volkswagen is in the parking lot.

| As a joke, this is a terrific oldie that is definitely good for a few laughs. I have enjoyed this particular joke on several occasions, and it rarely gets old. 
However, it's not a teaser. The teaser submission guidelines (http://www.braingle.com/faq/index.php?cat=1) clearly state (in the fourth box down titled "Jokes") that Braingle.com does not accept jokes, and jokes should be submitted to Wocka.com.
I've seen several examples in the past few weeks of jokes submitted as teasers. Sorry guys, but if I want jokes I'll go to a joke website. Hopefully the editors are watching out for this in the new teasers being submitted. |

um...
anyway, why does everyone keep saying: "good one, mogmatt"? when it says it was submitted by arji?????
Yeah, yeah,, it's funny, but not a teaser really, and then sometimes you see other borderline teaser/jokes and some people here get all IRATE that someone dared to submit a joke to this website. Oh well...

| I can do the first 2 parts in 2 steps each:
1. Step 1: Open the refrigerator.
Step 2: Put the elephant inside.
2. Step 1: Take the elephant out.
Step 2: Put the zebra inside.
It just says put the elephant and the zebra in the refrigerator. It doesn't say anything about closing the door! |

Hey Imurry, glad were argeed on this one.  |

| I am an old, retired grandma, and have always been a fan of jokes - I have never heard this one before. No, I didn't figure it out. I liked it very much! - If all of the people who complained for some reason would just leave a quick comment, then find a teaser more to their liking, we who enjoyed it could enjoy it even more by not having to slog through all the complaints.
Good job!  |

| I just read this one on the internet. I already new the answers. I'm wondering if I can submit something like this too. I really didn't know that you could. I wish I could remember where I read this one. It is cute though.
Wish I could remember but I won't.
