Joke Screener

Joke Screener would be a web site where you could test your jokes before you told them.  For anyone nervous about a sales pitch or a fancy dinner party could submit jokes they had been thinking about and jokescreener.com would rate each joke for how funny it was.  It would also screen for sensitivity like if the joke could be perceived as racist, sexist or down right dirty.  If the joke you submitted rated really low on the funny scale it would make suggestions of pre-screened jokes that had a lot of the same key words in it.

Question:
In what nerve racking situation have you actually thought of or memorized a joke well before hand?

  1. I have memorized and practiced several jokes before our visits to Ecuador. Would it work in Spanish? Would it factor in the possibility of being hilarious because you said it all wrong?
