Well I know that too many beer leads to divorce.  Damn another paradox.

you gotta be a bit of a music geek to get this, but it's pretty damned funny...



C, E-flat, and G go into a bar. The bartender says, "Sorry, but we don't serve minors." So E-flat leaves, and C and G have an open fifth between them.
After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished, and G is out flat. F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. D comes in and heads for the bathroom, saying, "Excuse me; I'll just be a second." Then A comes in, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor. Then the bartender notices B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and says, "Get out! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight."
E-flat comes back the next night in a three-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender says, "You're looking sharp tonight. Come on in, this could be a major development." Sure enough, E-flat soon takes off his suit and everything else, and is au natural.
Eventually C sobers up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. C is brought to trial, found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of D.S. without Coda at an upscale correctional facility.

absolutely, but it was pretty funny.

I'm sure it started out as just the top line or two in a thread on a forum somewhere, and much like our pun threads here, just sort of started rolling

Heh. 

I agree with TCT that someone had too much time on their hands, but it *is* pretty damn clever. 


Also, I'm slightly disturbed that I understood almost every part of that joke.  (Gods, I hated music theory!)

A linguistics professor says during a lecture" In English, a double negative forms a positive.

But in other languages, such as Russian, a double negative still forms a negative.

However, in no language in the world does a double positive form a negative!
