Gas chambers were and still are a US thing.

Not really. Only five states still have them, and they are never the first method chosen.

The holocaust, never was, and never will be, funny. I have a list of things that are not funny, but I am not willing to share it because I rather these things come up naturally as teachable lessons.

Only 2% of the states have Chicago in them, but that doesn't make Chicago any less a US city. Either way, I never really thought of it as a holocaust joke, but if it is then it's a pretty benign one. As far as holocaust jokes go anyways.

This depends, is the joke about three bee stings a holocaust joke, or a joke that happens to tangentially involve the holocaust? Because IMO it's pretty funny.

Two bee stings.

The holocaust.

What's worse than the holocaust.
Three bee stings.

I mean when I say "pretty funny" that's by the standards of jokes you tell which tend to be less funny than situational humour.

Well seeing as though three bee stings will have more impact and relevance on my day to day activity I can certainly see that being true.

If someone starts to talk about their trip to Paris, most people are going to assume they are talking about France, not Texas. If someone mentions gas chambers, most people are going to assume their talking about the Holocaust.

I agree that it's a pretty benign joke. At this point, if someone mentions the gas chamber, I'm going to think of SA. That's not true for non-goons, though.

Six million Jews walk into a bar. The bartender looks at them suspiciously and says, "Is this a Holocaust joke?"

*thinks for a second*

He's right, Holocaust jokes aren't funny.

Hahaha, that's a brilliant description. And also my exact reaction the first time I read it.

And stop talking about the Holocaust. I've read that word so many times it's starting to not look real. Unfortunately for six million Jews, it was.
