Notes on the Canonical Collection of Funny Light Bulb Jokes:
This file is derived from the connonical collection of light bulb
jokes as posted by vax2!kurt by deleting all the unfunny jokes. His
notes follow:
This file is the canonical collection of light bulb jokes, posted as a
public service to prevent a steady trickle of light bulb jokes must of
which will be repeats. Light bulb jokes have a period of four to six
months between recurrances, and long-time news readers look forward with
dread to each new round of the same old jokes.
It is possible to construct infinite small variations on these jokes by
substituting particular ethnic groups into these jokes, or by expanding
certain jokes into seventy line monsters. I have resisted this impulse.
Of course you may substitue any ethnic group for ''. I feel it
would take all the fun out for me to pick on a single ethnic group when
there are so many and when I don't know your personal prejudices.
The WASPs in the following jokes are `White Anglo-Saxon Protestants' and
are assumed to represent any upper-middle class, loose lifestyle people.
In Seattle, these are 'Mercer Islander' jokes. In California, they are
'Marin County' jokes.
!WARNING! This file contains material of a satirical nature. It may be
offensive to members of the following groups:
Californians Oregonians New Yorkers New Jersey-ians
Generals Politicians Marxists supply-side economists
Athletes Students artists Professors
Psychiatrists Psychologists Doctors Lawyers
Christians Jews Zen Budhists gods
Vice Presidents Managers Russians
Feminists mice Homosexuals Lesbians
Software people IBM employees WASPs Bell-Labs Employees
and no doubt others who are offended to have been left out of this list.
