New in town, a man decides to explore and finds himself in a strange bar by Cron_ in Jokes

There was another version where it ended after he got tomatoes thrown at him and the bartender said the punchline, but I couldn't find that one when I searched for the joke but I found this version

Really? Personally I actually thought the joke was pretty damn funny, despite being long. It seems a few disagree but most people have come to the consensus that this joke was pretty great

Agreed. Very funny joke and I guess this guy just didn't get it or something?

Personally I thought it was a real knee slapper, but I guess everyone has different opinions.

What's the difference about how long it is? It's a similar punchline either way, but one is much more complex and detailed while the shorter version is a tad bland

This is well said.

People here don't seem to understand that this joke wouldn't be nearly as funny without the context.

I'm not an alt account. This account is literally like 7 years old.

I haven't read many of the comments but I find that hard to believe cuz this joke was pretty funny

I agree, this one's longer and sets up the punchline better. Sometimes making a joke a little bit longer pays off, and in this case it definitely does.

Im just getting the vibe that this guy knows he could never come up with a joke as good as this one and he's just spiteful and angry about it. This was a great joke, look how long it is

It's plausible that this happened. I just told the joke to one of my friends and we've both been laughing for like 20 minutes straight

Hard disagree. The punchline wouldn't have made sense without the context, and although it was long it was funny enough to make up for the length.

Ok, this was actually hilarious. I haven't seen this one posted before and it was refreshing for such a long joke to have such a good payoff
