2. I apologize for killing your thread.
In the context of all the other jokes it didn't sound so bad, but isolated by itself now, I'm just horrified how blatantly sexist it looks.

And I even quoted it wrong (heard the show replayed today):

A woman thinks one man should satisfy her every need and
a man thinks every woman should satisfy his one need.

gah.

Years before the penguin joke, there was the grasshopper joke that wouldn't die:

Grasshopper walked into a bar, and the bartender said, Well Hi there little fella, did you know we've got a drink named after you?

Grasshopper said, That's ridiculous, why would anybody name a drink Bob???
