"My grandfather told me the tale when his grandfather told him"

To say that Joel's trick to humor is 'taking the joke too far' is an understatement. He goes beyond taking it too far, and has turned it into an art form. He does it in a way that when a character sighs in exasperation you completely sympathize with them. And that, is art. The impressive part (and the part I love about these) is that the characters are damn well IN on the joke, but they execute it anyway.
