I Have Become Pod-Man's Straight-Man Department


So, we’re waiting for the subway at Chicago Avenue, when I spot an advertisement for the movie “Norbit.” I comment:

Dutchman: So — would you rather see Norbit or Battleship Potemkin?

Podman: Potemkin.

Dutchman: But Norbit has got fat jokes.

Podman: So? That’s not as gross as the maggoty meat in Potemkin.

Dutchman: I’ll bet there are naked women in Norbit.

Podman:
And what’s more homoerotic than sailors?

Dutchman:
Norbit has Eddie Murphy.

Podman:
Nobody does a montage like Eisenstein.

Dutchman:
I’ll bet there are lots of fart jokes in Norbit.

Podman:
Lots of fart jokes in Potemkin, too.

Dutchman:
There aren’t any fart jokes in Potemkin!

Podman:
Sure there are! You just can’t hear them because it’s a silent movie.
