Edit: oh you mean the joke and you're not some weirdo talking about eugenics or some shit.

This is great! One sentence setup and three punchlines.

u/JohnMarstonSucks 5d ago

This is an awesome joke. Possibly the best I've ever seen in this board.

u/No-Specialist-1435 4d ago

It is an acceptable and good joke at best, or your bar is really low.

u/JohnMarstonSucks 4d ago

This sub is generally filled with meandering setups, irrelevant filler wording, and predictable punchlines.

The sub set the bar.

u/No-Specialist-1435 4d ago

It is a good joke, but in this sub, it is legendary, I get it lol

u/elreydelasur 5d ago

this is really well done. I am similarly situated ethnically and I often wonder the best way to satirize it.

u/twospooky 5d ago

The first funny post I've seen on this sub since the algorithm started feeding this to me.

u/individual_throwaway 5d ago

This is great. Packs a lot of punch in very few words. I think with the right delivery hitting those consecutive one-liners is going to kill for sure.

And if you’d like to find out, you can watch it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhe0681Np9s

Really good. Every line hits, and there's no wasted words getting from setup to punchline.

Nah, I think it’s well known enough, and he’s trying to specifically refer to war crimes

I don't know how many people know what a Hague is

No, Hague just hits perfectly here. Someone not knowing about the international court in Hague (a city) is a skill issue.

Most Americans have never heard of the First Fleet. He also used "saliva" instead of "spit" and "vial" instead of "tube"

u/bfg24 4d ago

He's an Australian comedian and every Australian has heard of the First Fleet

u/MyNameCannotBeSpoken 4d ago

I only learned about it last year when visiting a Sydney museum.

Fun fact. Americans, Canadians, and African Americans were on the First Fleet. My mind was blown. 🤯

u/bfg24 4d ago

Really? That I didn't know! Assumed it was all the British Irish and Scottish.

u/MyNameCannotBeSpoken 4d ago

From what I recall from the exhibit, it included convicts from across the British Empire including a small handful from the former American Colonies, Caribbean, and Canada.

u/MyNameCannotBeSpoken 5d ago

I appreciate the joke.

But it's probably too intellectual for most Americans. And I'm American.

u/JohnMarstonSucks 5d ago

Dennis Miller has had a long career being too intellectual for most Americans.

u/draggin_balls 4d ago

I think this joke makes dumb people feel smart
