Colleague keeps telling jokes backwards like "Did you hear about the one with <punchline>? No? There was this <long setup> and he said <punchline>". I am starting to feel harassed by this form of joke torture.

@fesshole Could that be call Reverse Polish Nonsense?
@fesshole Telling a joke backwards in our newsroom would just be the morning meeting — punchline first, then a long stare while everyone waits for the setup.
@fesshole Did you hear about the little man?
No.
Knock knock
Who's there?
Little man.
Little man who?
Little man who can't reach the doorbell.
😁
@fesshole there's always murder as an option..
@fesshole I (finn) used to live with a canadian roommate, and sometimes I wanted to tell him a joke that requires knowledge of finnish culture. So I'd spend half a day explaining something first, and then had to remember to tell the joke in the end.
@fesshole Just answer 'Yes!' to the first question. Solved.
