A Jewish man was walking along the beach in Israel when he discovered a gold gem encrusted bottle.
He rubbed it, and a Jewish genie came out,”Oy! Thank heavens you let me out of there. For being so kind I will grant you one wish.”
The man thought for a moment and said, “Peace in the Middle east, that’s my one wish.”
The genie looked concerned and said, “Look, I’m sorry, but that’s just not possible. Some things can’t be changed. Do you have another wish?”
The man thought about it again and said, “I wish my wife would give me a blow job!”
The genie nervously paused for another moment and said, “So… How exactly would you define peace?”
The one where the man says “I can’t stand heights and get seasick… can you make me a highway to Hawaii?” is a much funnier version of this joke.
Especially the punchline: “Would you like that to be four-lane, or six-lane?”
You know, you’re absolutely right. I wasn’t thinking when I used this joke, because the highway version is far more “canonical” as far as jokes go.
I’ll add in a supplemental joke for Sunday. It really deserves to be properly cataloged.
