対象読者

This book suits anyone who likes to tell a good story at the table, give a toast, or open a speech with a smile. It also rewards readers who enjoy the humor of other times.

本の内容

A man carries his broken umbrellas to the repair shop. Next morning he steps off a streetcar and, out of habit, grabs the umbrella of the woman beside him. She shouts Stop, thief, snatches it back and leaves him ashamed. That day he collects all eight umbrellas, repaired, and boards a streetcar with them under his arm. There sits the same woman, glaring. She asks whether he has had a good day, hasn't he? Do you see why a story like that gets told for years? It is short, it is clear, and it stops exactly where the laugh is.

Jokes For All Occasions is an anonymous American collection from the years after the World War, when Prohibition was a favorite target of wits. A compiler's preface teaches how to tell a story, why old jokes beat new ones, and how wit differs from humor. Hundreds of anecdotes follow, filed by subject, and you leave with a method and a store of examples for any toast or speech.

重要なポイント 1/7

Build every story around its punch line

The preface outlines two approaches to storytelling. One relies on extreme brevity and makes the punch line its whole appeal. The other builds humor through the whole telling. A beginner, the compiler advises, should choose the first and rely on the punch line alone.

The method is simple. Decide exactly what the listener needs to know, and understand the ending precisely. Then give only the facts that make the ending clear and leave out every detail that does not serve it. Leaving out an essential detail is fatal, so check twice. For nervous speakers there is a trick. Memorize the conclusion first. However haltingly you tell the middle, the point arrives intact.

The collection shows the method at work. A woman says she is growing old because the policeman no longer takes her arm in traffic. A teacher asks in which battle King Gustavus Adolphus was killed, and the pupil says it was probably the last one. Each entry gives just enough setup and then stops.

The preface insists that tellers are made, not born. Start with short, simple stories and tell them to one or two close friends before any social gathering. Once the short form feels easy, give the characters or the setting some funny quality of their own.

Takeaway: know your last line first, say nothing that does not lead to it, and practice until the telling feels easy.

『あらゆる場面で使えるジョーク集』についての質問

What is Jokes For All Occasions about?

It is a collection of anecdotes and jokes grouped alphabetically by subject, with a preface that teaches how to tell stories. Headings run from Absentmindedness to Woman Suffrage, and a closing section gathers quick exchanges from Life and Punch.

Who wrote Jokes For All Occasions and when?

The collection is anonymous. Its preface and references, including the World War and Prohibition, suggest it was assembled in the years just after the war for American readers who wanted material for speeches and gatherings.

What advice does the preface give for telling a joke?

It advises beginners to rely on the punch line, say only what the ending needs, and memorize the last line first. It also recommends practicing on small audiences and choosing old stories rather than new ones.

Why are the jokes arranged alphabetically by heading?

Each heading names the subject the story can be applied to, so a speaker can find a fitting illustration quickly. The preface says this helps when choosing examples for speeches or arguments, as Lincoln used stories to persuade.

Is Jokes For All Occasions easy to read?

Yes, in the sense that most entries are short, self-contained and written in plain, lively language. You can open it at any heading, read one story in a minute, and move on or return later.
