    You are the only other person I’ve encountered who knows of this joke, so I now declare us friends.

      I think we have no choice but to be friends, now. I’m frankly amazed to run into someone else online who’d heard that joke

        I am prepared for impending friendship.

        I don’t recall where I originally read the joke but I spent years - unsuccessfully - trying to find it again. The version I read followed it up with something like “hard as a rock, dumb as a brick.”
