This is a PERFECT shindig/bar encounter joke, you can alter it slightly to "a guy went to the mall and walks into a bookstore... the guy replies..," if you don't want to offend someone's delicate leftist sensibilities 😯

But overall it will get a laugh and a curious eyebrow raised (toward that vein of truth running directly through it) from ANY political alignment or "status" (exceptions to that minuscule group of cultists on the "radical" "fringe" left [whichever your preferred term] that are simply too Marxist [and thus nihilistic, power obsessed to sociopathic levels] to have developed or acknowledge something approaching a sense of humor) 🤣🙄
