“A crab walks into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A crab version is:
   
“A crab walks into a bar.  The bartender says, ‘Sorry, I can’t serve you.  You’re already walking sideways.’”
 
A crab walks sideways, but a person walking sideways is usually drunk.  The joke was posted on Twitter in 2012 and on Reddit—Jokes in 2018.
