Two liners from Iceland

Told in Reykjavik, Iceland, by Aegir Petur Ellertson

Why do people in Hafnafjordur take a step ladder with them when they go shopping?
Because they have heard that prices are on the up and up

Why does the tide come in an out in Hafnarfjordur?
Because the first time it came in and saw the people of Hafnarfjordur it got real scared and rushed out. Still comes back twice a day to see if they are still there!

Why do people in Hafnarfjordur sneak ever so quietly past the chemists?
So as not to wake the sleeping pills up.

If you buy rolls of turf for laying a new lawn in Hafnardfjordur you'll get a shock.
On the wrapping it says: Please lay green side up!

Why do people in Hafnarfjordur open their milk cartons there and then in the shop?
Because the carton reads: Open here!

Last year the brightest person in Hafnarfjordur moved to Reykjavik, the capital. IQ levels dropped in both places.

And one longer joke also told by Aegir:

The neighbour told her the best way to stop a dog snoring is to tie a red ribbon round its penis.
That night, when Rover started his wheezy racket, she hopped out of bed and tied a red ribbon round the base of his penis.

Half an hour later her husband started snoring. Could try the same…." she thought.
She pulled back the covers and tied another red ribbon round his penis.
Worked a treat.

Next morning the husband was up first and off to the toilet. He noticed the red ribbon and saw the dog had one too:
Don't know what went on last night, Rover, but seems like we both won first prize!
