“A pirate walks into a bar, and it was at that moment…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A pirate version is:
 
“A pirate walks into a bar. And it was at that moment that he realized that his patch was on the wrong eye.”
 
The pirate had, literally, walked into a bar. The joke was posted on Reddit—Jokes on September 27, 2018.
