This reminds me of almost every time I tell a joke--
"So this guy walks naked into a bar with a duck under one arm and a hunk of
bologna under the other...
blah blah blah... yadda yadda yadda...
The penguin yells "Geronimo!!!!"
52 people burst out laughing and one guy says, "I don't get it..."
And then I start with the explanations...
"See, there's this guy.... the duck... penguin... geronimo..."
And everyone starts laughing again, except the guy--
"I don't get it--what's the duck have to do with Geronimo?"
I start, "Well, it doesn't, but it does, see, like the bologna..."
People are wiping tears from their eyes from laughing so much
"I don't get it--the balogna and the Geronimo?" Guy asks quizzically.
"No, the guy with the duck and *then* the bologna and the penguin! Get it??
See???" I reply with enthusiasm.
People in hysterics on the ground, guy standing around with complete
fuddlement...
I try a different direction, "Is like this see--a guy walks into a bar...
*naked*... see...."
Ambulances are showing up with oxygen tanks 'cause folks can't breath from
laughing so hard....
"It doesn't make sense..." says the guy.
"It's not *suppose* to make sense," says I, "*That's* the joke!"
Ambulance attendants are carting people out 'cause they laughed themselves
into unconsiousness...
Guy's still standing there, wanting to get the joke, but alas, there was no
joke to begin with...
That's the funny part...
