There is this Democratic candidate for president, Beto O'Rourke, who apparently has a penchant for seaking high (moral?) grounds for his speeches: bar countertops, restaurant tables, etc. However, this is not an invitation for a political debate, just to set a stage for a related joke, as told by Ronald Reagan:

Last time I saw anybody standing on a bar countertop, it was Stormy Daniels.

I've got to admit that Beto here bears an uncanny resemblance to the rat in the rat-and-rattlesnake video.

Quite true, same pose. And he moves also very fast.

"A horrified crowd gathered, and the tired bishop made his way down the
belfry, arriving just as the policeman arrived. The policeman asked the
bishop "What happened?" The bishop explained that he had refused the troll
the bell ringing job and the troll began chasing him. "How did you
escape?" asked the policeman. The bishop's reply: "I was saved by the
bell."

I didn't see that coming. I thought it'd be, "Don't ask for whom the bell trolls."

That has been a nightmare, not a joke! I always had clients check 'em out too against their next-year's diaries! A consultant can be somebody called in to share any future blame.

Well yes, sir.
If you look with attention you'll discover Bruno Ganz acting Bruno Ganz in a Hitler costume.
You could have seen Bruno Ganz acting Bruno Ganz in, say, a Faust costume. Faust is a character by Goethe, a German author.
Or in another theater role.
As you can see Robert De Niro, John Travolta, Tom Cruise etc acting themselves in different roles

So is it usually with actors.
BTW Bruno Ganz passed away shortly ago, in Februar. A great actor.

Fake Hitler...

Nooooo.... And there I was, thinking that was an authentic, historic footage of Hitler himself. And you are now shattering my illusion by bluntly, mercilessly telling me it was just an actor, and the whole scene just a movie!? My perception of reality might never be the same again.

If you missed the emoji with the sun glasses (suggesting eyes - Blue/Dark) and the title of the Subject ("A touch of humor"), then we can expect anything from you, Slobodan

Attention, emojis present!!!

I guess it must be German humor then. Banal and shallow. Then again, humor for Germans is a serious thing. No smiley.

Wrong address to ventilate your problems my friend.
This was rabanito's humor, who is not a German

Now:
That you don't appreciate a joke could be for two reasons.

1. It is a bad joke
2. You don't understand the joke

But anyway, the same could be said of most of the jokes we all tell here under this "humor" subject.
They are told with the best intentions. You should appreciate that. Even that of yours.

Need a mirror?

You didn't get my tongue-in-cheek comment, apparently.
