Joke of the Day: What’s Three Times Three?

Get ready for a chuckle! Today’s joke is all about memory and how sometimes even simple questions can lead to the funniest answers. It’s a lighthearted way to show how our brains can surprise us!
Picture this: three older gentlemen are at the doctor’s office for a memory test. The doctor wants to check how sharp they are.
He starts with an easy question, something basic everyone learns early on. “What’s three times three?” he asks the first man.
Without missing a beat, the first man answers, “274.” The doctor probably raises an eyebrow but stays composed. This is going to be interesting!
Then the doctor asks the second man the same question: “Three times three equals what?”
The second man thinks for a moment, then says, “Tuesday.” Now the doctor is probably trying hard not to laugh. These answers are definitely unusual!
Finally, it’s the third man’s turn. The doctor asks again, “What is three times three?”
With a confident smile, the third man says, “Nine.”
The doctor beams with joy, happy someone got it right. Curious, he asks, “How did you figure that out after those answers?”
The third man grins and delivers the punchline that makes it all funny: “Easy—I just took 274 away from Tuesday.”
And that’s the joke! It reminds us that sometimes our minds play silly tricks, and laughter can be found in the most unexpected places. It’s a simple but funny way to keep things light and cheerful!
