A James Bond joke
May 1, 2008I never heard of James Bond jokes, and I’m old enough to remember the days when a new Bond movie was something that people actually got excited about. But here’s an example, via Eric Alterman:
007 walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance, then casually looks at his watch for a moment.
The woman notices this and asks, “Is your date running late?”
“No”, he replies, “I am here alone. Q has just given me this state-of-the-art watch and I was just testing it.”
The intrigued woman says, “A state-of-the-art watch? What’s so special about it?”
“It uses alpha waves to telepathically talk to me,” he explains.
“What’s it telling you now?”
“Well, it says you’re not wearing any panties …”
The woman giggles and replies, “Well, it must be broken because I am wearing panties!”
007 taps, taps his watch …
and says “Damn thing must be an hour fast.”
Cue sassy, John Barry-orchestrated saxophone.
