Joke Poo: Data Download
Two software engineers, Anya and Ben, are trekking through a dense Redwood forest during a company offsite “nature retreat.”
Anya says, “Ugh, I need to offload some data. Nature is calling, you know?” Ben replies, “Me too. This ‘digital detox’ is backing things up.”
They scramble off the designated path to find a secluded spot. They both handle their…business.
Anya calls out, “Hey Ben, you got a wipe? I’m out.”
Ben yells back, “Nope, sorry. You got a thumb drive?”
Anya says, “Yeah, a little 1 gig stick. Good idea.”
Anya finishes and returns to the trail. She waits…and waits… Finally, Ben stumbles back, looking exhausted.
Anya asks, “Dude, what took you so long? I thought you said you had a thumb drive?”
Ben sighs, “Yeah, I do. But it takes a lot longer when it’s a write-protected, half-full, 5400 RPM USB 2.0 model.”
Okay, let’s break down this Hawaiian-flavored joke and see what comedic gold we can extract.
Joke Dissection:
- Setup: Two Hawaiian “bruddahs” (brothers) are pig hunting on Mauna Kea and need to relieve themselves.
- Premise: They lack toilet paper. One suggests using a dollar bill.
- Punchline: The “wait” is due to the second brother having to carefully wipe with 3 quarters, 2 dimes, and a nickel instead of a whole dollar bill.
- Humor Source: The humor derives from:
- Culture Cliché: Casual, laid-back Hawaiian dialect (“brah,” “da kine”).
- Absurdity: The ridiculousness of using coins for toilet paper.
- Unexpected Delay: The surprising reason for the delay due to the specific breakdown of the dollar.
- Misunderstanding: The first brother expected the dollar to be readily available.
Key Elements:
- Hawaiian Setting/Culture: Mauna Kea, “bruddahs,” the use of “brah,” and the overall easygoing dialect.
- Lack of Toilet Paper: A relatable, yet universally unpleasant situation.
- Improvised Solution: The suggestion to use a dollar bill.
- Miscommunication/Unexpected Twist: The breakdown of the dollar into smaller change.
Comedic Enrichment – New Joke/Observation/Did You Know:
Let’s build on the joke’s cultural setting and the awkwardness of the coin-as-toilet-paper situation.
New Joke:
Two tourists are hiking Mauna Kea. One gets the runs from some questionable poke.
“Mahalo, I forgot the tissue!” one tourist says. “Eh brah,” the other replies. “Don’t worry I got something better in my pocket”
He reaches in and pulls out a bag of smooth, black, volcanic pebbles.
“What?! You gonna use those to wipe with?” the first tourist says.
“No brah,” the second tourist replies. ” I gonna find two more tourists. With the three of us? We can trade to for some TP”
