Hawking's Heavenly Ride

He couldn't take the stairway to heaven; he had to take the lift.

Explanation

Listen up, buttercup. The joke is that Stephen Hawking was physically disabled and used a wheelchair. So, instead of taking the "stairway to heaven," like in the Led Zeppelin song, he'd have to use an elevator, or "lift," because of his condition. Get it now, genius?

Why is Stephen Hawking going to hell? Because it's a stairway to heaven, not a ramp!
Man, I’m so sorry that Stephen Hawking is dead; he was such a good person. Too bad it’s a staircase to Heaven and not a ramp.
What happened to Stephen Hawking after he reached Heaven? Nothing yet. He is still struggling to get up the stairway to Heaven.
It's okay to tell a Stephen Hawking joke if there are stairs in your house he can't get to you. Plus, he shut himself down, so it's all good :)
