I also think it's supposed to be a gay joke.

explain please OP

I posted it in hopes someone could explain it to me. I also do not get it.

I found the joke here: http://forum.ebaumsworld.com/showthread.php?t=60014 -- some people there seem to get it, others don't.

this was a funny quote from there: "Mark is part of a governmant conspiracy against the skinny man. The bartender is Agent-8091B. The vodka was spiked with Ecstacy, which was a plot to get the skinny man in the cab, where the government would add really fricking cool ninja mods to him (y'know, like big swords and ninja star things) and then they'd send him to Quebec, where he would be a chili dog vendor for 5 and half years before he would discover his ablilties and take over most of northern canada, before Optimus Prime would fly out of the TV and totally pwn him and Alaska."

thus the missing letters D-A-D
so the skinny man is marks dad, mark is the mans son, and it turns out he cares

Q.E.D :p


Exactly

Exactly

if this holds true that means this is more of a riddle than a joke.

The joke is a whole lot funnier in its original Klingon. Something gets lost in translation.

I thought it was:

Q) What's the difference between an orange?
A) a duck, because a vest has no sleeves.

This thread started at a 0/10. Then it slowed rose to 3/10. Then jumped to 8/10, slowly backed off to 7/10 and then rocketed to 9/10.

I made up this joke when I was in high school in the early nineties! (Just replace duck with bicycle.) I can't believe it lasted this long. Its such a bad joke!
