Slim People in Japan
Categories
Explanation
Experiment
This joke plays on the stereotype of people in Japan being slim and connects it to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, where the codename for the atomic bombs were "Fat Man" and "Little Boy". It's a dark and offensive joke because it makes light of a real historical tragedy. The punchline implies that the atomic bombs 'slimmed down' the population by killing many people.
