Who could resist a corny joke or two once in a while? Not us, for sure, because we do love some lame jokes that make you laugh purely because of their silliness and obviousness. Similar, probably, only to dad jokes, but let’s stick to ‘corny’ here.

So, while you might know what a corny joke is, do you know how the term ‘corny’ came to be? As with anything, there are quite a few theories here. For instance, there’s one that relates to folk from the US rural areas, known to city folk as the corn-fed contingent. And everything unsophisticated and funny only to farmers was called ‘corny,’ hence the corn-fed part. Another theory (it’s a good one) also stems from the rural parts of the US. Here, the theory states that farmers used to get a seed catalog ‘enriched’ by some heavy-handed, totally obvious, and absolutely bad jokes. And since they were published in a seed magazine, ‘corny’ just stuck!

Okay, so now we know the probable story of the term corny, so why don’t we check out the cheesy jokes themselves? We’re pretty sure you’re going to laugh your socks off because of their pure stupidity! Yet, even in your throes of laughter, do not forget to give these stupid jokes your vote and share this article with your friends.
