Over the weekend I looked up jokes about printers and the printing industry and found so little. Personally, I did not know many jokes before, but the results after so many searches on Google left me pretty disappointed. I mean, really, printers have been around since, eh, the tenth or fifteenth century depending on how you define printers (the human kind). And in all this time, people didn't make fun of us as much as they did of Bush or Obama in less than ten minutes? Granted, we are not as sexy or outrageous as the politicians, but come on, there must be funny happenings somewhere sometimes in a printing place.
So here is my challenge to all fellow printers (offset, digital, screen, or otherwise) to collect, invent, expand or modify jokes about us, our tools and our trade - after reading the below list of jokes I have collected thus far. Some does not directly involve a printer, only in relative connection.
The List - what I have found.
Why did you decide to work in prepress? “I got into prepress because I heard of the strippers.”
Why do people start working in prepress? “I got into prepress because I had heard that they could always use dingbats and dummies and creeps in the gutter…”
What type of hunting do printers prefer? Trapping.
Has anyone else ever had a client choose a paper stock and helpfully fax you a sample?
Printers Law: You will misspell the name of the client's spouse.
You can find the rest and forward your joke to me here.
Enjoy,
