: This joke is a play on the cliche of
wanting to die peacefully in your sleep. This familiar statement takes
an unexpected twist when we learn that grandpa was, in fact, driving a
car full of passengers when he died “peacefully in his sleep.” As a
result, those passengers did not die so peacefully! This type of joke,
in which the second half of the statement is shocking or unexpected
(usually making you see the first part of the statement in a different
light), is also called a “paraprosdokian.”
This funny quote presents a clever
idea that might possibly work: if you have multiple locks on your door
and only lock some of them, someone who tries to pick the lock and
assumes that all the locks are engaged will not be able to unpick them
all (until, that is, they figure out that not all of the locks were
initially locked).
Someone who expects bad things to
happen (a pessimist) will expect a negative outcome when they lend you
money, which is that you won’t return the money. Wilde is saying that
this make pessimists good people to borrow money from — because you
would never be expected to pay back the money you owe them! The quote is
funny because it pokes fun at pessimists (in reality, most people
expect you to return money they lend you, pessimist or not) and assumes
the reader is a dishonest person who does not want to pay their debts.
Most people are aware that the
planet Saturn is surrounded by rings (you may or may not know that these
rings are composed of ice and rocky material). Most people also know
that airline luggage often gets lost. While the rings of Saturn are of
course not literally composed of lost luggage, this quote is humorous
because it makes fun of a frustrating experience many people can relate
to — the airline losing your luggage.
: This joke is of the bathroom humor
variety. While many quotes about friendship are meant to be taken
very seriously, this funny analogy takes a lighthearted (yet not
inaccurate!) twist when it compares friendship to peeing your pants.

: Here’s a classic “good news, bad
news” joke quote from a master comic. It’s darkly funny because the
“good” news is really pretty terrible, and the bad news is implied: once
we hear the good news (that the patient is going to have a disease
named after him), we already know the bad news (that the patient has a
never-bef0re-seen disease). Disease is usually a serious topic, but
tasteful jokes on this subject can be especially funny because they make
us laugh at our fear of death, rendering it less terrifying.

Quotes that laugh at the perceived
differences between the genders (or gender stereotypes) are funny to
those who enjoy this kind of humor. The joke here is that men are
considered successful if they make a lot of money, but women don’t need
to make money to be considered successful; they just need to marry a man
who makes a lot of money.

The joke this quote makes is that
elderly women are often crazy about the game bingo, so much so that an
otherwise nice old lady might utter an obscene word if she loses at
bingo. (Plus, most people find it funny to think of a “sweet little
80-year-old lady” saying the “F” word.)

Taking a metaphor or analogy
seriously — in this case, thinking a motivational statement like “finish
what you start” applies to eating junk food — makes for a classic joke.
This quote also makes fun of the vague and sometimes impractical advice
one might receive from a therapist.maybe because at heart we all love to argue and be right about everything, or maybe because it's refreshing to debate a poop/lemonade song when everything else is so serious. I had the 5am news on this morning and by 5:05 I had heard about 3 deaths and an old lady whose house burned down with her in it at night. I see your point, but what you said was pretentious as hell. WOOT!
