I mean, it’s funny but I only count two “layers.”
Beard is also the term for the woman you marry to avoid being known as a couch fucker
Ya, that’s the second layer.
First - Vance is obviously (apparently) trading his wife out for Kirk's widow
Second - "trading for a younger model" is classic shitty midlife crisis behavior
Third - he's trading an Indian wife for a white widow in an effort to increase his political clout
Fourth - the beard thing
There's interplays between the layers too. It's a really well crafted joke, you can keep splitting the layers in multiple ways, this joke isn't an onion, it's a carefully crafted pastry
Those are more ‘points’ than jokes.
Some might call them the layers of the joke
Don’t be so shallow!
Right, but a lot of those aren't layers of the joke, they're just unrelated aspects of the joke. It's funny, but layer 1 = beards getting grey as they get older, layer 2 = he's gay and his beard is more white now. All the other things you mentioned are just additional strands of spaghetti sticking to the wall.
This has big:
"[mediocre post].
Let that sink in."
energy.
Yeah, because when you explain the joke it's not funny... It's how jokes work
I tried to preserve whatever humor is left to be had, not actually be funny. The joke was far funnier than it could ever be deconstructed as
The KKK thing too
That's just kind of a lame observation really. Unless you believe that her parents purposely named her that, with the knowledge that she would marry someone with two K's in his name to fulfill the prophecy or some shit
