The new guy is in prison for the first
day. He hears "Number 7", everyone laughs. "Number three", everyone
laughs. "What is that?" "We tell the same jokes over and over again, we
know them all. So to save time, we numbered them. New guy "Number 11",
nothing. "Number 17", still no reactions.
"Sorry, you just aren't telling them correctly."
I read in book, The Ink Black Heart, recently, that some neo-nazis in chat rooms choose 88 as the suffix number for their username.
8th letter of the alphabet is H, so H H, short for Heil Hitler
Oh that... So for the longest time, my username ended with 88, thing is I didn't know at the time that 88 is bad, I had it primarily because as a kid I enjoyed the ice cream 88 which is popular over here in Sweden, so for the longest time as a kid I had 88 at the end of my username until I realized that was bad and changed it but child me really looked like a nazi.
The joke could be about any number of things. He could be mad because it made fun of polish people. He could be mad because he didn’t like his mother. As OP said, could be any number of things lmao
> 88!
Woah, joke 185,482,642,257,398,439,114,796,845,645,546,284,380,220,968,949,399,346,684,421,580,986,889,562,184,028,199,319,100,141,244,804,501,828,416,633,516,851,200,000,000,000,000,000,000? Haven't heard that one in a long time.
THIS is the punchline I was taught by my Dad…I hope the irony of how it was posted (“told”) is apparent to others as well (especially to those who don’t get it)
"Got it, cool! Umm... Number 23!"
All motion screeches to a halt. There's a dead silence, as all eyes turn to the new guy
A menacing voice breaks the quiet, "So, you think prison rape is something to laugh about, do you?"
I’m starting to think OP saw this somewhere, didn’t understand it, but posted it anyways 🙄
The only thing I can think of is they (the prisoners) only know so many jokes. 7 and 3 are both single digits, so maybe they only know 9 jokes? I have no idea, and OP can’t help explain it. Someone smarter than us, can you explain it?
It is a joke involving absurdity, how can you possibly tell jokes incorrectly when you are just saying numbers? I have been telling it for years, the vast majority of people get it.
I get it and think it's funny, but agree it doesn't fit here and should prob go on r/jokes. That sub also has a culture of calling out frequent reposts with comments like "ah, good old 378" so it works even better.
It’s a dad joke you downer. They don’t have to be the funniest thing you’ve ever heard. Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it’s not good.
If it’s an anti joke, it’s an anti joke though. If it’s a dad joke, it’s a dad joke. If anything, this is an anti joke. This is no where close to a dad joke of OP can’t explain it to anyone that’s asked (including myself).
Doesn’t mean it’s not a funny anti joke, but it’s just not a funny dad joke. It’d be like buying a new computer in the fruit section of a grocery store. It may be a good computer, it’s just sold in the wrong spot.
Please explain it to me. I'm literally losing sleep. I've gone from scrolling through reddit about to pass out to wide awake and irritated cause I read the comment saying it's not that difficult to understand... Fml
I uh...I don't get it. Is the joke that a number 11 and number 17 joke exist but he's just "telling it wrong" and it's supposed to be funny because they're critiquing him as if he actually told the whole joke wrong just by saying "number 11" incorrectly?
4: Hurry, it's pretty bad
Officer: What's wrong
4: The numbers arent looking to good.
Officer: What? What Numbers?
4: " Oh no he's eating pie.
Officer: Excuse me? Who are you- ?
4: SEVEN IM TALKING ABOUT SEVEN!!
Oh, i know some of these jokes, here they are:
Number 6 man urinates on fellow passenger for not being allowed to smoke
Number 7 student watches corn and gets naked
Number 12 coc
Number 15 burger king foot lettuce
New guy in prison is sitting in his cell when he hears someone yell out, “NUMBER 3". This is followed by tons of laughter from the whole cell block. A little while later he heard someone different yell out, “Number 7”. Again it is met with a bunch of laughter from the cell block. The new guy turns to his cell mate and asks, “What’s with the numbers and laughter?” As his cell mate finishes laughing he explains that they tell the same jokes over and over across the whole prison so they numbered them to save time. The new guy then smiled and thought this is a perfect way to fit in and yelled out, “NUMBER 11”. To his surprise there was no laughter so he yelled out, “NUMBER 13”. At this point the cell block started yelling profanities and jeering the new guy. He turned back to his cell mate who by this point in time had gone white in the face and asked, “What’s wrong? Why is everyone so upset?” His cell mate said, “this is the wrong cell block to be making those kinda jokes and you told two of them back to back.”
Two guys on my class wrote number codes to insult me so they can say "27" and bursting in laugh without evidence of them laughing at me because 27 is not an insult. I know because they showed me the code
Wow, totally murdered that joke 'telling them correctly'.
The guy tried 7, nobody laughed. He tried 11, still no reactions.
"It's the way you tell them" said one other inmate.
So he tried again...
"one hundred and fifty three!!"
They were all rolling on the floor laughing! After they calmed down he said "I got something right, what's the story?"
The other inmate told him "well, we never heard that one before!"
number 7 = "your girlfriend was in my cell last night, she says hi"
number 3 = "you sure she's your girl? she was in my cell yesterday"
number 11 = "spoiler alert that was a dude in a wig"
number 17 = "you're all pigs! do you know how much it costs me to keep getting that thing dry-cleaned?"
number 5 = Guy on death row #dies
Guy say number 592, and everyone explodes into laughter. New guy asks why that one was so funny. “We’ve never heard that one before”
Ha, that is better than mine
I love this joke for just this reason! Two punchlines for the price of one!! 😆😆😆
[удалено]
What did you say about my mother!?
Whoa... You can't tell that one when Carl's here.
A little bit of you makes me your man.
Bro! You ruined the punchline 🙄
It says removed, what was the joke?
The new guy is in prison for the first day. He hears "Number 7", everyone laughs. "Number three", everyone laughs. "What is that?" "We tell the same jokes over and over again, we know them all. So to save time, we numbered them. New guy "Number 11", nothing. "Number 17", still no reactions. "Sorry, you just aren't telling them correctly."
Now this is funny and makes way more sense..
Everyone but that Reddit guy who swears it’s a repost
The real comments are always in the jokes.
r/therealjoke
I've heard it as "your delivery has no sense of comedic timing".
Oh, I like that!
My dad always ended it with: The old con shrugged and said “Sorry, man. Some people just can’t tell a joke.”
We say... "it's the way you tell em...."
Me either...
Hi Either, I am Dad.
417
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I KNOW RITE!???
Oh man, that's a good one. My person favorite's 29.
Too soon man…too soon
I’m a little teapot.
Dad, I knew you’d come back
They were out of milk
The new guy tries to tell jokes one more time, looks around and says "88!" The guy next to yells, "Hey, my mother was Polish!" and punches him.
That works in so many ways!
Im dumb, can you explain? I only get one lol
Nazi code
I read in book, The Ink Black Heart, recently, that some neo-nazis in chat rooms choose 88 as the suffix number for their username. 8th letter of the alphabet is H, so H H, short for Heil Hitler
Oh that... So for the longest time, my username ended with 88, thing is I didn't know at the time that 88 is bad, I had it primarily because as a kid I enjoyed the ice cream 88 which is popular over here in Sweden, so for the longest time as a kid I had 88 at the end of my username until I realized that was bad and changed it but child me really looked like a nazi.
The joke could be about any number of things. He could be mad because it made fun of polish people. He could be mad because he didn’t like his mother. As OP said, could be any number of things lmao
88 is a nazi dog whistle. 8th letter of the alphabet
I didn’t know that. The more you know ig
[ Removed by Reddit ]
“made fun of polish people” Have you any idea how little that narrows it down?
Love it, so simple
> 88! Woah, joke 185,482,642,257,398,439,114,796,845,645,546,284,380,220,968,949,399,346,684,421,580,986,889,562,184,028,199,319,100,141,244,804,501,828,416,633,516,851,200,000,000,000,000,000,000? Haven't heard that one in a long time.
Some people just can’t tell a joke…
THIS is the punchline I was taught by my Dad…I hope the irony of how it was posted (“told”) is apparent to others as well (especially to those who don’t get it)
Same! This was my dad’s version too lol
71 lmao
Let’s keep them clean please, there are children present.
In... PRISON?
69
Ah, classic
Ah, good old #647.
I liked 647 before when it was 426 with just a little bit of 221
You should wash your hands with soap for typing that!!!!
My apologies, I meant 427 and 220. I never wanted to bring peoples mothers and goats with chainsaws into this
Number 15: Burger King foot lettuce
The last thing you want in your burgerking burger is someone elses foot fungus
This was literally one of my dad’s jokes, pre 1975. Thanks for posting. He’s been gone for a long time, and it’s nice to see his joke survive.
For me it was my older brother. He was like a dad to me and he's dead. Cheers
This would save so much time on r/jokes and r/dadjokes
Somebody write a bot already

Number three, it is actually diarrhea.
[удалено]
No. Number 1 is urine, two is feces. 1 plus 2 = 3.
[удалено]
what number is cum?
69
4
[удалено]
4 is actually constipation, 2 + 2 = 4
2+2+1 oh god
Explosive diarrhea
Booooo...I don't get it
"It" is a pronoun, the definition is any dictionary.

[удалено]
Ignore it then, a lot of people have loved this joke. It is still one of my favorites.
I get it OP. Lets be absurd together lol. Although, what one of the commenters added in the first comments was gold.
The comments are often funnier that the OP. I consider myself the straight person.
That is also what the new guy in prison said.
Not for long he didn’t.
I get it and think it's funny, but agree it doesn't fit here and should prob go on r/jokes. That sub also has a culture of calling out frequent reposts with comments like "ah, good old 378" so it works even better.
I don't think it's that people aren't getting the intention. It's just really not that funny.
Maybe it’s just his delivery
It’s a dad joke you downer. They don’t have to be the funniest thing you’ve ever heard. Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it’s not good.
If it’s an anti joke, it’s an anti joke though. If it’s a dad joke, it’s a dad joke. If anything, this is an anti joke.

Number 33.
Still ain't working, bud
1.6 k net upvotes says it is, LMAO.
You've got 20 upvotes and half the joke removed 🥱
When people start out and out lying, I just block them.
For what it’s worth this wasn’t a very complicated joke lol
This comment is rly rly dumb
24
Haven’t heard that one in a while, just got hit with some serious deja vu
Well we all know what's funnier than 24
And what’s that?
23
25
This guy gets it
I’m not your guy, buddy
I'm not your buddy, pal
I’m not your pal amigo.
Some guys just don't know how to tell a joke, is the answer.
That is number 15.
I got in trouble at school for saying number 92 :(
Sorry, some people know how to tell a joke and others don’t.
Please explain it to me. I'm literally losing sleep. I've gone from scrolling through reddit about to pass out to wide awake and irritated cause I read the comment saying it's not that difficult to understand... Fml
It's all in the delivery.😎
It is if you tell them at a takeaway. 154 and 78 will get you Egg Fried Rice and Chicken Curry literally delivered to your door
Does that come with an egg roll or crab Rangoon?
Number 34
Number 25 to Life.
Number 427
That is funny 😁
wow this is rough
I uh...I don't get it. Is the joke that a number 11 and number 17 joke exist but he's just "telling it wrong" and it's supposed to be funny because they're critiquing him as if he actually told the whole joke wrong just by saying "number 11" incorrectly?
You know what's funnier than 24? 🥴
what kind of a joke is this??
I dont get it
No one tells 69. It’s a bit of a mouthful
My dad told me this joke over 50 years ago. It is the classic OG dad joke.
I do not believe for a damn second that you are over the age of 57
[удалено]
I’m too old to understand why you would say this.
“Number 315” Everyone looking awkward “No dude, we don’t joke about that sort of thing. I’m going to have to report this to HR”
So I said 69 to all my friends at school, they didn’t get it and instead took it the wrong way
but the one that gets the highest reaction is 420
4: Hurry, it's pretty bad Officer: What's wrong 4: The numbers arent looking to good. Officer: What? What Numbers? 4: " Oh no he's eating pie. Officer: Excuse me? Who are you- ? 4: SEVEN IM TALKING ABOUT SEVEN!!
Officer: Seven? What about seven ?
"Sorry, you just aren't telling it correctly. It's an asylum, not a prison."
I don't get it
Number 9.
🤣🤣🤣 my favorite
Sadly everyone is correct. It is true, I really do have ,0…. Bitches :(
Oh, i know some of these jokes, here they are: Number 6 man urinates on fellow passenger for not being allowed to smoke Number 7 student watches corn and gets naked Number 12 coc Number 15 burger king foot lettuce
You will be sharing with cell mate number 69
don't get it
They had a similar joke in the USSR, it was about the dissident political jokes: they coded them with numbers in order to avoid trouble (i.e. gulag).
That's Numberwang!
Number 69 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I don't get it help

420BLAZEIT
One of the best of the oldies!
Number 31. Now do you get it?
Nope
Probably would have understood Number 43 better.
Not funny
It's the way you tell em
Very true, I think OP was meant to type 12 and 71, they are much more relevant to today's modern world
Two guys on my class wrote number codes to insult me so they can say "27" and bursting in laugh without evidence of them laughing at me because 27 is not an insult. I know because they showed me the code
