I Laugh the Hardest at Obscure Jokes
It’s not only because the joke is funny, but also because I’m experiencing the kind of secret joy of being an insider. I’m guessing, what, maybe 1% of the general population gets this Fark Photoshop contest entry.

Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn’t have any white onions, because of the war; the only thing you can get was those big yellow ones.” - Grandpa Simpson
