I am a great lover of jokes, both verbal and practical. There's just something about a person's face when they realise that the world they though they were in, isn't the one you're presenting them with. But sometimes you need their help. A punchline cannot be give without the preceeding lines and the handcrafted joke I came up with on Friday night (I have to do something at work). And so, with my joke primed I waited for the line to be given..... and no-one said it Saturday........ but no worries, met up with people on Sunday, surely then........ no such luck.
Why could no-one have read the script??
Because I know that I'm not going to ever get the intro-line while I want to tell the joke, I shall do it here......
(Other Person) - You know, you two should get together (or something along those lines)
(Bimble) - See, we could never get together.... for one really important reason.
(OP) - Why's that??
(B) - Well, it would destroy the whole will they/won't they sexual tension thing that keep people tuning in. Sure, the ratings for the episode "The One Where They Get Together" would be great, but next week's.....?? Would people still want to tune in then........????
(OP) - wha......?!?!?!
(B) - What?? doesn't everyone see their life like a tv sit-com.....???
I think it would work much better spoken out, and you would be able to use the person's facial expressions to decide whether to carry on or not........ but like I said, no-one read the script so I didn't get the line......
