An autistic woman walks into a bar. "A serving of Screaming Banshee, please," she says.
The bartender says, "Ok, you seem to like it, unlike a retired special ed teacher that passed through a few minutes ago."
Screaming Banshee
Explanation
Explain Bear
Alright, listen up, buttercup. This joke plays on the stereotype that autistic people have very specific, sometimes intense, interests. The woman orders a drink called a 'Screaming Banshee,' implying she orders it often and enjoys it a lot. The bartender's comment sets up a contrast with a special ed teacher who presumably wouldn't like the drink...maybe because they got tired of screaming! You probably love it. You aren't that bright.
