This Acronym walks into a bar

Leave a reply

Way back near the beginning of this blog I wrote about a joke featuring acronyms and today, that joke has come to fruition.  In the event you’re not comfortably conversant with chat talk, follow the links in the story below as you read the tale of how…

This Acronym walks into a bar and hops up on a stool. The bartender strolls over, all smiles, and says, “How you doin’ tonight my friend?” “GR8,” the little abbreviation replies. “Can I get you a beer?” says the barkeep. “PLZ, Y2K.” The barkeeper fills up a glass, delivers the cold beverage to his friend, and gets a hearty “TYVM!”

After a few minutes, the mixologist returns and asks, “Is there anything else I can get for you tonight?” “NO,” replies the acronym with a smile. The bartender, clearly puzzled, says to himself, “I wonder what he meant by that.”

The idea for a joke can pop into my head at anytime, without warning, and that’s often the way it happens.  It’s even occurred at church, leaving me with a slightly guilty feeling and a hope the pastor doesn’t ask what I liked about the sermon.  “Oh, got a great idea for a joke” just doesn’t seem like the kind of thing a man of God would want to hear.

Last Saturday it happened again.  Ellen and I were attending an event we hoped would help us be better travel agents and the speaker was using acronyms for everything.  We constantly had to ask him what they meant when all of a sudden it hit me, an acronym could walk into a bar.

I’ve got the punch line already, and am working backwards to the start and will plan on posting the FFJ (finished funny joke) here soon.  TAF (tell a friend).

UPDATE – 1/25/2019: It only took me about 6 months to complete the joke but almost 4 years to update this post with a link to This Acronym Walks Into a Bar.
