Case #51: Video

[George sits at the small table in his room, and holds a pile of papers in his hands, like a newscaster.]

I seem to have spent the recent weekend writing jokes for a vaudeville act. I can't say that I understand them now that I have come back to myself.

Is anyone aware: what is the "deal" with air-plane food?

Comments

[19centconstable]

I agree. I'm not one for speaking to large crowds.

[captain_jtkirk]

You could leave knock knock jokes places.

[19centconstable]

Do you mean: knock on someone's door, and then leave?

I don't think that's very funny either.

[captain_jtkirk]

Have I told you that you're my favorite recently?

[19centconstable]

I don't believe so. Why?

[captain_jtkirk]

You just are.

Would you like to know what a knock knock joke is?

[19centconstable]

Well, yes. Certainly.

[captain_jtkirk]

Okay. Knock knock.

Now you say who's there.

It's cooked by a staff of chefs but it still tastes awful.

Must be a time/culture clash thing.

I wanna read. Seriously.

I do like to think I have a good sense of humour.

[19centconstable]

Yes, of course one would.

[19centconstable]

And people find that funny?

Because it simply sounds sad to me.

[captain_jtkirk]

But you have to say it.

[19centconstable]

Who is there?

[captain_jtkirk]

Boo.

[19centconstable]

I'm sorry?

[captain_jtkirk]

[Sorry he's too busy laughing for like a minute.]

Nevermind. It's not that funny anymore.

[19centconstable]

I see. That was very educational, I'm sure.

[captain_jtkirk]

I'll try to find you some funny jokes you would understand.

When you have to mass produce food that's supposed to have a personal touch ...I suppose it is...it's kind of sad.

It's more of a joke about jokes though.

[19centconstable]

We do have jokes where I come from, Captain.

Re: [Video]

[19centconstable]

A joke about jokes? That seems overly complicated.

[paradoxlol]

Besides the danger, most planes have too many passengers and too little space for an one. You can't expect much unless you're flying first class. You pretty much get what you pay for.

[19centconstable]

One certainly ought to. Get what they pay for. I'd be put out if I didn't.
