I swear this is the funniest joke I've ever heard...

[LeftyFingerPop]

Maybe because of the unexpected punch line...

Maybe the way it is told, I don't know...

Or maybe because my sense of humor is warped beyond repair ....

1. I swear this is the least funny joke I've ever heard...

That's not even a joke. What the hell? Waste of 54 seconds.

[LeftyFingerPop]

[riverdale]

3. You must be high

I know Jerry was

[LeftyFingerPop]

10. Well, listen....

I have 3.2 million dollars in my brokerage account, and I retired at the age of 36. Wouldn't you be high all day too?

[SPKrazy]

4. f uck em

:rofl:

[RebelOne]

5. Why am I not laughing?

[montanto]

6. Is the puchline "The Aristocrats?"

[BrotherBuzz]

7. It's funnier when Jerry tells it while playing his banjo.

[Westegg]

12. Let Phil tell it!

[momophile]

8. maybe it's funnier if your a bee... or a bee keeper...? nt

[Heidi]

9. It's funny because it's JG.

There is nothing I don't like about him, except that he's dead. I don't like that he's dead. :(

[Burma Jones]

11. Yeah, that's funny

and I do miss Garcia.........

[bbernardini]

13. Not to ruin the punchline, so SPOILER...

Is this the one about the bees in a cigar box, and the punch line is "fuck 'em"? I can't view the video at work, unfortunately.

I have a video I bought at a record show years ago called "Backstage With The Dead" that has that segment on it. I can't find out anything at all about the history of the tape or the footage on it.

[Greyskye]

14. yes.

I love Jerry, but don't grok the humor. :shrug:

[BrotherBuzz]

15. That's because Jerry totally blew the joke

The old joke isn't all that funny to begin with, but if he told it while playing a banjo and had a gag arrow through his head, people would have laughed.


Morris and a woman are standing side by side waiting for a bus when they get to talking.

"Say," said the woman. "Do you have a hobby?"

"Naturally, a hobby I got , I'm a bee keeper."

"Well, you must live in the country then."

"Nope, right here in the city...in Brooklyn."

"Really? You must have a large house then."

"Nope, apartment."

"Gee, where do you keep'm?"

"A shoe box in my closet."

"A shoe box!? How many bees do you have?"

"Couple thousand, something like that. So who counts ?"

"Well, you can't keep a couple thousand bees in a shoe box! They'll die!"

" So screw'em, I hate bees."
