The Rebbe and the Shadchan
Here's a classic to get us started:
A Rebbe and a Shadchan are sitting together on a park bench. The Rebbe says, "I wish I could have what you have." The Shadchan replies, "What do you mean? You're a Rebbe, you have everything!" The Rebbe sighs, "Yes, but I don't have what you have." The Shadchan, confused, asks, "What do you mean?" The Rebbe leans in and says, "I wish I could have just one kid who listens to me!"
