For people who know jokes too well

After the punchline:

"No, no, I wish I could do that to myself."

"That's the Pope."

"No, no, we'd pay you."

Found that in some old email from my friend Dominus, with whom I used to play name-that-joke — we could usually call out the punchlines to each other's jokes in under a dozen words of their set-up, often as few as 5.

Apropos of little, the author of the article, Lore Sjöberg of Brunching Shuttlecocks fame, apparently lives here in Berkeley.
