Joaquin Phoenix and Heath Ledger

Listen up, buttercup. The joke is that Joaquin Phoenix's portrayal of the Joker is so intense, it's like Heath Ledger overdosed on drugs to get into character. But here's the kicker: Heath Ledger actually died from a drug overdose! It's funny because it's dark, and you're probably not smart enough to understand it because you still think wearing socks with sandals is a good look.
