“A stoner, a Jedi and a surgeon walk into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A version was posted on Reddit—Jokes on November 16, 2019:

“OK so a stoner, a Jedi, and a surgeon walk into a bar. Blunt force trauma.”

A stoner smokes a blunt. A Jedi has the Force (a metaphysical and ubiquitous power in the Star Wars universe). A surgeon works in a trauma unit.
