The devout cowboy lost his favorite Bible while he was mending fences out on the savannah. Three weeks later, a Hippopotamus walked up to him carrying the Bible in its mouth. The cowboy couldn't believe his eyes. He took the precious book out of the Hippos mouth, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, "It's a miracle!" "Not really," said the Hippo. "Your name is written inside the cover."

The Hippopotamus's Birthday

He has opened all his parcels
but the largest and the last;
His hopes are at their highest
and his heart is beating fast.
O happy Hippopotamus,
what lovely gift is here?
He cuts the string.
The world stands still.
A pair of boots appear!

O little Hippopotamus,
the sorrows of the small!
He dropped two tears to mingle
with the flowing Senegal;
And the 'Thank you' that he uttered
was the saddest ever heard
In the Senegambian jungle
from the mouth of beast or bird.

My wife told me that she was a virgin before we got married and her vagina was like a mouse's ear. It turns out that she is a liar and meant a hippopota(mouse)'s ear.

The Planes Indians practiced polygamy, and one chief had three squaws.
The first squaw lived in a teepee of elk hide, the second in a teepee
made of buffalo hide, and the youngest in a teepee of hippopotamus hide.
Then he slept with each wife on the eve of his great hunting trip.
He was gone nine moons and when he returned, he went into the elk hide
teepee and found that his wife had borne him a son. Likewise, in the
buffalo hide teepee, that squaw, too, had borne him a son. So, imagine
his surprise when he found twin baby boys in the hippopotamus hide
teepee.
This just proves that …





The squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the sum of the squaws of the other two hides.

Two students sat at a table, one says to the other 'I think it's pronounced wom-b'. The other says 'no it's pronounced wum-b'. A passing professor overhears and walks over saying 'I think you'll find it's pronounced woom, as in womb'. And walks away.
One of the students says to the other 'That's funny, how the hell does he know what sound a hippopotamus makes when it farts under water?'

Please note that this joke loses a bit when written, it's far better spoken. Ha ha.

A representative of the African Society of Hippopotomi has already registered a complaint with the mods. Several on here are being accused of hippopotomism and it is believed that many of their members are deeply offended by references to the hippopotomus as the brunt of jokes that in no way are representative of the hippopotomus culture. They feel they are being objectified in a disgraceful way and are particularly offended by hippopotomus 'teepees', references to their under-water toilet habits and, albeit obliquely, being accused of having big ears (ref: the virgin analogy).

This must stop henceforth lest all concerned be hauled before the European Court of Hippopotomus Rights (soon to be disbanded when all creatures are regarded as the same in the eyes of the EU).

I was walking past the bus stop and saw a woman swearing at everyone while shaking and sweating.
I asked her if she was OK?
She said "have you got any F++kin' sweets or biscuits I want 'em now!"

Turns out she was a Hypo Potty Mouth.

What's the difference between a Hippo and a Zippo?
One's really heavy, the other's a little lighter.

An 82 year old man, named Hippopotamus, is standing crying in the street. A young man, concerned, walks over and asks him if he is OK.
The gentleman replies, “No, it’s my birthday today. I’m 82.”
“82! But you look great for your age, you should be happy.”
The old man continues, “yeah, and I got married yesterday to a gorgeous 25 year old blonde.”
The young man thinks he’s sussed the old man’s problem, “I suppose you’re too old to fulfill your conjugal responsibilities?”
“No, not at all, we enjoy a full and loving sexual relationship, up to 5 times a day.” He says still crying.
“Look mate, I’m 25 and I don’t enjoy that much sex, you lucky devil,” says the jealous lad.
“Why are you crying?”

The old man looks up and says, I’ve forgotten where I live.”
