contrived jokes

[unbibium]

Did anyone else hear the "Johnny Fucker Faster" joke in grade school?

I thought it was just something that was made up by the kid who told it to me, because it was too stupid to have become oral tradition. But then I heard that Penn Jillette had heard it growing up, as he cited it as an example of a joke having a contrived setup.

But, this is Penn, co-producer of The Aristocrats, of course he knows it. But do any of you know it? And do you remember any part of it besides the punchline?

And who can guess the punchline without any additional information?

That's at least plausible.

When you have to explain during the setup that they have to just believe that a kid's name has a swear word in it, that's the kind of joke where hearing it becomes a stupidity milestone in a kid's life. I can remember the time of day and where exactly in the apartment complex we were hanging out.

Haha. I don't remember anything like that, but I do remember the friend who told me most of them, so it's safe to assume I heard most of them while staying over at his house.

I don't remember any jokes from my own childhood, but Life in Hell has a kid telling one with the lady jumping out of the shower to chase after her dog, conveniently named "Freeshow"

Most kids don't care. You're saying a swear word! That right there is kid comedy gold.
