Ugh. Do I have to tell these visual joke-tellers how it should be done?

The problem right here is that they used the word "Japan" twice. It becomes like a song where you're using the same word to rhyme with itself. :andyandbarcelona: Worse, it sort of telegraphs the joke and the repeat syllables throws off the joke's cadence.

A much funnier joke would be "Are you from Tokyo?..." instead of "Are you from Japan?...". Go back to joke school.

Not bad. But it's hard to make a fake joke about women astronauts making sandwiches when there are real-life stories of women astronauts driving 900 miles in a black wig and a diaper to assault a woman with a drilling hammer, pepper spray, and rubber tubing at the Orlando airport.

Comedy lesson #2 today: don't make jokes about things where the real stories are even funnier. My laughter about sandwiches is completely tempered by the fact that I was thinking, "Well, at least she didn't drive 900 miles wearing a black wig and a diaper."
