Я стараюсь найти шутки что я могу рассказывать к моим друзьям. То ест- эти шутки должны быть короткие, со сравнительно простыми словами, и конечно смешные!

Я стараюсь найти шутки, которые я смогу рассказывать своим (моим) друзьям. (которые = which; смогу - future; рассказывать друзьям - no "к" is required!)
Note. "моим" is OK, but "своим" is better.
То есть, эти шутки должны быть короткие, со сравнительно простыми словами, и конечно смешные!
BTW, if you mean short stories with an unexpected and funny end? There is a special word for them: анекдот.
"Шутка" (a joke) can be, for example, a funny response to someone's question, a funny comment to someone's action etc. But when you tell short funny stories, it is "рассказывать анекдоты".
Короткий анекдот:
- Вы чай будете пить? - Would you like some tea? (lit.: Will you drink tea?)
- Почему бы и нет! - Why not!
- Ну нет - так нет. - OK, if not, then not!
Personally, I like jokes (Russian: anecdotes) with a mixture of Russian and English. They are not for everybody, though. They are for Russians who knows some English (at least a little bit).
Иностранец подходит к кассе "Аэрофлота":
- Two tickets to Dublin.
- Куда, блин?
A foreigner comes to Aeroflot ticket-office. (Aeroflot - the biggest Russian airline company).
- Two tickets to Dublin. It sounds as "two tickets туда, блин"
("туда" - to there, "блин" - it literally means "pancake", but there is nothing to do with its direct meaning, it has no English equivalent in this context, it's just a filler word, an euphemism of a common swear word in Russian, being not a swear word itself, but sounding quite alike). So, to a Russian ear it sounds roughly as "two ticket to there, holy sh..t", but less rude.
- Куда, блин? (To where, holy sh..t?)
Trachtenberg's anecdotes are currently easily available on YouTube. Given this miraculously blissful fact, you can magnificently augment and astoundingly amplify your yearning for "funstuff" with a broad variety of issues regarding cultural paradigms of intergender intercourse, as well as sufficiently imbue and tangibly satiate your intransigently aspiring mind with the correspondent structure of related applied linguistics.Quote:

That's a bit odd, considering it's not an anectdote, but a joke! An anectdote in English as I'm sure you know, is short story with some sort of moral lesson to gain from it...not something intended for laughter.Quote:
рассказывать анекдоты
Heh, any better jokes? ;)Quote:

The definition is:
Анекдо́т (фр. anecdote — байка, небылица; от греч. τὸ ἀνέκδοτоν — неопубликовано, букв. «не изданное»[1]) — фольклорный жанр, короткая смешная история, обычно передаваемая из уст в уста. Чаще всего анекдоту свойственно неожиданное смысловое разрешение в самом конце, которое и рождает смех.
Анекдот (from French "anecdote" - fable, cock-and-bull story; or from Greek τὸ ἀνέκδοτоν — unpublished) - is a folklore genre, a short funny story, usually transmitted from mouth to mouth. It is typical for an anecdote to have an unexpected logical outcome at the very end, which causes laughter.
From Russian-English dictionary:
анекдот
м.
anecdote; funny story; (шутка тж.) joke
♢ это просто анекдот! — it is simply ridiculous!
From English-Russian dictionary:
anecdote
['ænıkdəʋt] n
1. 1) (короткий) рассказ, история; эпизод
witty [amusing, interesting] anecdote - остроумный [забавный, интересный] рассказ
2) анекдот
2. часто pl неопубликованные, неизвестные (обыкн. пикантные) биографические подробности
Well, and as to some good Russian anecdotes... I know lots of them really, but I'm trying to find something which could be easy for you.
The matter is 50% or more of the Russian anecdotes are based on the word game.
And the other half of them are culture-specific. It is not so easy to recollect something which could be internationally understood. I'll post them to you when I recall some.
Here's one funny joke (aka anecdote) for you.
There was a huge series of anecdotes about "New Russians", they (anecdotes) used to be extremely popular in 1990-s. "New Russian" is a stereotype of extremely rich and low-cultured people in the early post-Soviet Russia. New Russian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Сын нового русского подходит к отцу:
- Пап, дай денег!
- Сколько?
- Немножко, вот столько: (and then you have to show a gap of about 2-3 centimeters between the tips of your thumb and your index finger).
A New Russian's son comes to his father:
- Dad, gimmie some money!
- How much?
- A little, just like this: (show it with your fingers).
Иностранцам анекдоты с нашей игрой слов непонятны. Им нужны анекдоты с чистым смыслом, без каламбуров.Quote:
