So a blind guy walks into a bar...
... and a table, and a chair.

I tell blind jokes all the time. It helps put new friends at ease.

Heck yeah. Im still partially sighted, so my go-to is (when I can't find something) "oh my god, I think I'm going blind." *finger guns* gets me lots of eye rolls at work. Also "its my eyes that dont work, not my ears" if I hear people talking quietly either about me (not in a mean way) or when they shouldn't be.

You have to have a sense of humour about it.

Know how I met my husband? Blind date.

I don't see why not. Or why. Or see.

All the blind people I know love blind jokes, and make them themselves.

I'm legally blind (don't remember the exact numbers 20/x, but I can only see about three to five feet directly in front of me, no night vision).


I love blind jokes. Way I see it (heh), I can't change it, and there's no point in whining about it, so I may as well joke abou it. My friends sometimes call me Daredevil.


If anyone's seen (heh) Rogue One, you know of the badass blind guy in that movie. There's a scene where someone is putting cloth bags over everyone's faces, including the blind guy. He says, "Are you kidding me?! I'm blind!". A couple of my friends were watching that movie, and when that part came on, they turned to each other and said, "That's [my name]." They're not wrong--I would absolutely have said the exact same thing.

Yes. Perhaps especially do blind people tell blind jokes, at least I do and lots of people I know are very prone to.

Yes! They're kind of like a fun coping mechanism for me. My favorite is just saying "same" when people start talking about a something requiring sight (driving, reading from a distance, etc.). In highschool, my nickname for track was "blind fury."

You better believe it. I'm particularly fond of puns using "see".

I only have vision in one eye. My introduction to my fiancee's extended family was a night of heavy drinking (which would have impressed them enough on its own) and several comments about finally seeing single.

As a fan of Futurama, I get some extra laughs from the depth perception and similar jokes Leela makes. I also *love* $1 because it's totally true.

But yeah, "Oh, geez, they're right there.. I'm so blind' usually gets a 'Pfft, amateur.' response from me. Make the best of the situation.

I love blind jokes. I just... never see the punch line.

I do, when ever I get the chance tell blind jokes, and other people get offended for me. Even when I make the joke.

I tell blind jokes every time i get the chance to do so. People always tell me that it's so nice that I can joke about something, they wouldn't even dare to joke about. Sometimes you just have to say one word as a blind person, to be the funniest in the room. For instance, on one of our music lessons wrote a couple of polyrhythms on the white boar and asked us:
"does everyone here read notes?"
I just said no, and everyone started to laugh.
It became even funnier, when the class stopped laughing, becaus the teacher replied:
"But at least you know how to play these rhythms."

I don't. But only because I don't tell many jokes. I find the standard formula of most jokes ("How many X does it take to Y?" "X, Y, and Z walk into a bar", "Did you hear the one about X? He was stupid! Ha ha!", etc, etc, etc) tiresome and unfunny. I do, however, often tell funny stories about things that have happened to me as a result of my blindness. Because I'd rather laugh at myself than at someone else, and because true stories are always funnier stories.

No I'm legally blind and on the spectrum and I find jokes like that offensive I know I'm being a baby but how would you feel if you had what we have and everyday someone makes fun of you or makes offensive jokes about you look I love dark humor and all but too me that's crossing the fine line
