Grandpa's Accident

Listen up, buttercup. This joke is dark. See, grandpa didn't just die, he died at Auschwitz, which was a Nazi concentration camp. The punchline twists it by saying he "fell off the guard tower," implying he was a guard, not a prisoner. It's funny 'cause it's flipping the script on a horrible time in history. And you, bless your heart, probably think history is just a bunch of old dudes with beards.
