South Park - The aristocrat.

That "mere state" also has a population 10x that of Wales. :p

Another fun fact, Wales is only 2x as big as Dallas.

Is that hook in your lip a fashion statement or a functional item for herding purposes

Why do people never notice the smile afterwards? hehe

There does seem to be a disproportionate amount of them, for example; there is one representative from Wales, an entire country, on the board yet six or seven from Texas, a mere state. Weird.

Wales only got the internet May 2004 though.

True.

Peace bd

LMAO!

I could have done w/o that 9/11 comment though.

The 9/11 thing is kinda' the point tho', you wiz.


The whole point to the joke is to constantly make it worse and worse, what they are saying, as far as I can understand it, is that people think that the 9/11- impression thing is somehow worse than the actual, fairly horrible incest.

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.

My original thought when I heard the joke (when someone posted the same link years ago here...) was that it was referencing some film called The Aristocrat(s).

Maybe so, but it still doesn't explain how, say, Skizo could laugh at the joke, but not the punchline


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

I laugh at Peter Kay because he jokes about everyday things that I am familiar with.
