Post a funny off-beat joke

From Seinfeld, evidently told him by his (non-comedian) father :

A man comes home unexpectedly, finds his wife acting suspiciously, so he starts searching, goes into the bathroom, pulls back the shower curtain, and finds a man standing there.

He says : "What are YOU doing here ?!!"

The mans says : "Everyone has to be somewhere".

I... don't get it.

The humor is in the fact that the man in the shower turns the highly loaded question/accusation into an abstraction, which is sort of an answer. Everyone DOES have to be somewhere.

It is off-beat, Ill give you that it, but its absurdity tickled me. Also tickled Jerry Seinfeld, so I'm in pretty good company.

Anyway, your turn... :)

Okay here is one I made myself.

Why did Jane divorce Tarzan?

Because he cheetah'd on her.

That's like the fellow who got kicked out of the school of animal husbandry because they caught him at it.

Or because he's Welsh.

A city slicker applied for a job as a ranch hand. The farmer asked, "Have you ever shoed a horse?" The guy answered, "No, but once I told a donkey to fuck off!"
