Often the go-to for making fun of powerful and/or desperate men, hookers are the relief of anybody looking to turn a comedy trick of the mouth.But one may wonder, how do you make jokes about hookers funnier?
The Skillet studied this question thoroughly by watching 15 minutes of cable television.
The answer? More.
"People find more hookers funnier than less hookers. The number of hookers a person encounters is directly proportional to how desperate they are and how shameful they should be. Other people's desperation and shame are hilarious to us," says former soulless ET correspondent Mark Steines.
"If you have 1 hooker in your bedroom, okay. Kind of funny, kind of sad. 10 hookers? Hilarious! 100 HOOKERS?! Are you kidding me? How did you fit 100 hookers in one bedroom? Picture them piling out like a clown car of indulgence and self-loathing. It's comedy gold!" says Skillet correspondent Patton Oswalt.
People of all ages love to joke about hookers. Most just think 'hooker' has a ring to it. Especially old people.
"Of course I love hookers. Why do you think I helped traffic so much crack through this country in the 80's? To help kill off those stupid Sand-o-ricans or whatever they were called, sure, but more importantly so we could say CRACK WHORES!" says Clair George, Chief of the CIA during the Reagan administration.
"Crack whores! Hilarious!" added George.
Prostitution allows for women who have little money and resources to feel even less self-worth than they already have. Which in America is just fantastic.
How many hookers is the perfect amount of hilarity?
"237" says Patton Oswalt. "238 is just too many hookers"
So for those with aspirations of making ET level quips this weekend, remember the 237-rule of hookers.
