[Humour] Joke de saison

[Titanic]

Did you hear about the Christmas cake on display in the British Museum?

It was Stollen.

 

[Eeyore]

Marble Cake

 

[Stato]

Stollen's bread, not cake.

Did you hear about the Christmas cake on display in the British Museum?

It was Stollen.

How can it be on display if it had been stolen?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I have some Christmas Cake.
Is it stollen?
No, I paid for it.


Is a better version imho.

The one on display was fake - the bread was stollen

Like the Elgin Marbles ?

I think this is fake-cake news. A quick search of the British Museum collection https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/search?keyword=cake reveals that they have no cake on display or storage. A few cake moulds, cake stamps and other cake ephemera, but no actual cake.

Bloody typical of the British Museum this is, displaying something that isn’t even British. Come on Rishi give it back to the Germans.

That’s because it was stollen not cake

If you had actually searched for ‘bread’ and not ‘cake’, your search would have borne stollen fruit…

dish; food product | British Museum

Flat circular basketry dish of woven palm leaf, with two loaves of unleavened bread. One piece of bread has hand imprints on both sides of the loaf, probably left by the baker.

I note nothing by Mr Rudyard Kipling was stolen. Coincidence?

That is funnier than it has any right to be.

Will it still be on display after Christmas, or will it be replaced by another type of cake? I'd like to go and see it, but don't want to go all the way to London to find it's not there any more.

They won’t want it back if it’s caked in Greece

Why did Santa come down the chimney?
Because he didn't know the difference between Flo (the little barmaid down the Redeemer's Return) and flue.

She was very understanding and said ‘better than coming in the rain dear‘

Fake news?

Cake news?

Covfefe?

Though this joke has many layers, it hasn’t really risen to the occasion and is clearly half-baked. Think you need to mix it up a bit, maybe slice it differently?
