There's no feeling quite like being told you're an idiot because someone didn't get the joke you made. How can we describe it? It's almost like an intense mix of disappointment that your joke didn't land, followed by disdain for a person who simply can't understand how phenomenally funny you are. Seriously, you make a whole group chuckle and one person messes it all up because it just didn't tickle their funny bone in quite the right way.
The problem with people who miss the joke by miles is that they just walk off thinking they're smart for having correctly identified the fact that gorillas can't talk or that a priest and a rabbi would most likely not enter a bar together. Like, thanks, man. Phenomenal observation. To celebrate these frustrating occurrences, here are some 25 examples of people who ruined a whole joke because they didn't get it — even when it's plainly obvious that a joke is being made, and not a statement of fact. Way to ruin it for everyone.
