The difference joke is an old form with some variations. I have cited the origin of the first three to show how far back some of these go and have assembled a selection of different forms for your amusement (or not).

  • What is the difference between the Prince of Wales and water from a fountain? One is heir to the throne, and the other is thrown to the air.–Springfield Republican (Springfield, Massachusetts), 17 January 1863, page 2.
  • What is the difference between a bedbug and a man sleeping with snakes under his bed? One creeps over the sleepers and the other sleeps over the creepers.–Easton Gazette (Easton, Maryland), 9 January 1864, page 1.
  • What is the difference between influenza and a church organist? One stops the nose and the other knows the stop.–Easton Gazette (Easton, Maryland), 9 January 1864, page 1.
  • What is the difference between a boy running after a girl and running after a carriage? One chases the miss, and one misses the chaise.
  • What is the difference between Noah’s Ark and an Archbishop? Noah’s Ark was a pretty high ark, and an Archbishop is a hierarch.
  • What is the difference between a counterfeit dollar and a skinny prostitute? One is a phony buck.
