PS - A bit of humor for ENOTS - just replace "joke" with "post":
A new inmate at the prison was puzzled to hear a nearby inmate yelling out the number 72, after which the other inmates laugh. Then another inmate yells out another number, after which the rest of the inmates again laugh. "What's going on?" he asks.
"Well," explains his cellmate, "We've all been here so long that to simplify things, we've assigned a number to each joke and so now all we have to do is call out the number of the joke and everyone knows what it stands for. For instance, `72' is the joke about the guy who goes into the bar and..."
The new inmate likes that joke, so the next night he decides to give it a try. "72," he yells. NOTHING. So again he yells, "72". STILL nothing. Once more he yells, "72". Not so much as a chuckle. "What's wrong?" he asks his cellmate.
"Well, some people can tell 'em and some people can't."
Not to be discouraged, the guy decides to try another one. He calls out in his best delivery "167!", at which point the place collapses into a hysterical heap of convicts, all laughing to the point of tears. The new inmate can't understand, and after a full minute he finally manages to get his cellmate's attention. "What's so funny?" he asks. The other guy says, "They haven't heard that one before!" |
