Little Johnny

Little Johnny jokes are about a small boy who likes to ask innocent questions and has a very straightforward thinking. At times he is all too well educated in the terminology of sex (then he is known as Dirty Johnny) while at others he is all too innocent. He also has a cousin, Dirty Ernie, and a Russian cousin, Vovochka.

Dad had heart attack, mom fainted, and the guy next door shoot humself."
