So I had the page translated to English. I think the jokes might be funnier in Russian. Still there is something funny in knowing there is a joke in there ... somewhere.


Here's one that seems to survive, with a little bit of humor intact:

Most of the women claims that there is nothing more painful birth! But what hit the balls ?! After the woman said for some time: "Why not give birth to another baby ?!" Have you ever met the guy who says, "Well, embedding-ka me in the balls still a time ?!"

Orig: Большинство женщин утверждает, что нет ничего больнее родов! А как же удар по яйцам?! Спустя какое-то время женщина говорит: "А почему бы не родить еще одного ребенка?!" Вы когда-либо встречали мужика, который скажет: "А ну, врежь-ка мне по яйцам еще разочек?!"


My stab at translating:

Most women say that there is nothing as painful as giving birth! But what about a kick in the balls?! After awhile, a woman may say: "Why don't we have another baby?" But have you ever heard a man say: "Alright, why don't you kick me in the balls on more time?!"

Honestly, this sounds pretty stupid in both Russian and English...


Will try to retain some of the original colour:

"Most women insist there is nothing more painful than childbirth... but what about being kicked in the nuts?!

So a wife asks her husband: what do you say, why not have another child? (ed: the direct translation is - why not give birth to another child)

The husband responds: ah well, why not kick me in the nuts one more time?"


They aren't all funny, that's the point. Users submit jokes, then they get voted on, in several rounds, then best ones bubble up to the top.
