Gee.
I notice you’re catching a wee bit of flack for this joke.

As in everything else in life it’s .....

timing.......

that’s important.

Why don’t you try setting up a blog and excerpting your jokes?

That way there will be a five to seven second delay between the last part of the set-up and the punch line.

Sven invited Ole over to see their new pet monkey.

Sven was explaining how it’s great! “Oh heck, he plays catch with us, rides the swing, eats at the table with us. Shoot - he even sleeps with us in bed! Right between me and Leena!”

Ole replies “Well Jeez Sven - what about the smell?”

“Oh, its okay. If I can get use to it, the monkey should be able to.”

It's just a joke. If you don't like it, move on.
