Dan the Man 009: After reading this a second and third time, I don’t get the joke. Why is it funny that the third ant says what he said about the elephant? And this joke won first place?!?!???
Pony99CA: You voted for it, but didn't get it? It's supposed to be funny because three ants think that they can beat up an elephant because they have him outnumbered.
Of course, it seems that the first two ants are sociopaths, wanting to beat up somebody who is sleeping.
Pony99CA: It would have been funnier IMHO to say "It's three against one" instead of "Poor guy is all alone and we are three!" Brevity is the soul of wit.
