So, this fish swims up to an oxygen bar. A bartender nearby asks the fish what he'll have. The fish stares. The bartender asks again, raising his voice this time. The fish stares. The bartender once again addresses the fish, this time yelling so loud that the fish darts into a nearby plant. The bartender's friend tugs his sleeve, pulling him away from the tank and says "Cut it out, you're scaring the fish, and you've been working too hard." ;)
 
Well...its...you know...in a certain way...ah, who am i kidding..it's not funny ;)
 
What the heck is wrong with me, is it because it's 1:15am? I totally don't get it...
I have a picture in my head of a fish sitting beside an airstone and a human outside the tank screaming at the fish, but... that can't be right, makes no sense. Geez, I'm a smart girl but I sure feel dumb right now.
 
get it? oxygen "bar" as in airstone, and the guy screaming at the fish happens to be a "bar"tender, he is trying to feed the fish or somthing and hes screaming at the fish cause the fish wont order...but its a friggen fish...
 
Oxygen bars, yep they are for real... http://www.harmonyfalls.com/oxybar.html

The 'joke' reminded my of a supervisor that went nuts, when he couldn't stop laughing. He took a trip to the "funny farm" and was not seen since.
 
I thought it was hilarious, really appealed to my sense of humor lol.

Yes oxygen bars are real (although I think they're a dumb idea, high off of oxygen, jeez) and he had been working too hard if you see the meaning there, a little too much oxygen for him. And he was talking to the fish tank. :laugh:

I thought the oxygen bar was the real bar and the bartender was so tired he was talking to the fishtank-
Yup..that's pretty much what I pictured, too. It makes for a hilarious mental picture if you have a good imagination.
