Jewish Comedy Timing

INTERIOR. KITCHEN. JEWISH MEDIA FRIEND L IS PREPARING DINNER FOR POOTERGEEK.

POOTERGEEK: Like I said to [JEWISH WRITER FRIEND C] and [JEWISH WRITER FRIEND J] about [UNFUNNY JEWISH WRITER], being a Jewish writer who isn’t funny is like being black and having no sense of rhythm.

JEWISH MEDIA FRIEND L: Were they offended?

POOTERGEEK: Why should they be?

[PAUSE]

JEWISH MEDIA FRIEND L: Actually, you’re right: I’ve never met a black person without a sense of rhythm.

    Alexandr Solzhenitsyn was black, Jewish _and_ a lesbian, but contrary to what you suggest…

    (Well, okay. He was, strictly speaking, none of those things. But in a parallel universe he might have been. Bet you didn’t think of _that._)
