A guy is spending his first night in prison
He hears someone in another cell shout out “37!” and the whole cell block bursts out laughing.
Another guy shouts out “74!” Same thing.
“46!” and everyone loses their minds.
He asks his cellmate “What’s going on? Why are the numbers so funny?”
“Well we’ve all been here so long we remember all the jokes by heart. To save time we
just give them numbers and tell those instead.”
“Oh I think I understand. Let me try. 63!”
There’s dead silence.
The new guy says “What’s wrong, is that one not funny?”
“Nah, it’s a good one. Some people just don’t know how tell a joke.”
