How fucking warped are you, if you think that way?
I thought it was supposed to be funny because it gets more and more extreme and then ends with a very unsatisfactory punch-line. The crapness of the punch-line is the punch-line.
I reckoned they were doing the aristocrats joke, like it's supposed to be done, but with weird values, like.
I looked it up, the joke and how it's supposed to be done, I mean.
I figured it was a satire.
Just noticed your Wikipedia link (which I'll repeat here ). Guess there's a bit more to it than I thought but I still think what is supposed to make it funny is the extremes the joke-teller goes to and then the lame puch-line.Quote:

Maybe so, but it still doesn't explain how, say, Skizo could laugh at the joke, but not the punchline :blink:
EDit: Unless of course the aristocrats bit is the punchline, tho' I wonder why'd anyone would laugh at that without the context, which leaves me with the conclusion that some people think the nasty incest bit is funny :blink:
I laugh at Peter Kay because he jokes about everyday things that I am familiar with.Quote:
